BRITISH TRADE
PROTECTION FROM SUBSIDISED COMPETITION URGED fU.p.A —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright! LONDON, 20th January. The Federation of British Industries has sent a memorandum to the Board of Trade urging stronger Government action against subsidised competition from other countries, specially Germany. It points out that the board’s suggestion for an industrial agreement between competing countries will never achieve the object desired unless the Government possesses powers enabling it to penalise any country refusing to make a reasonable arrangement with British exporters.
It adds that abnormal methods of competition on the part of foreigners, specially Germans, may well necessitate Britain adopting wide and unprecedented defensive measures.
