COLONIAL EMPIRE
ECONOMIC SITUATION IMPROVING MARKETING PROBLEMS (British Official Wireless) RUGBY, June 18. The Secretary for the Colonies (Mr W. Ormsby-Gore), in a speech said the economic situation in British colonies was improving beyond expectations. The Government's regulation system had assisted this, but co-operation with foreign as well as colonial producers was also necessary. The international sugar agreement was the latest example of ttiis co-operation. Referring to the loss which the colonial Empire had suffered when the Empire Marketing Board was abolished, Mr Ormsby-Gore said the Prime Minister (Mr Neville Chamberlain) had agreed to a fresh start being made with a marketing board for the colonial Empire alone. This would help to stabilise the present economic improvement.
