CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE.
THE EMPIRE CONFERENCE. IMPORTANT FIXTURE FOR NEW ZEALAND. Al CKLAND, January 23. There is a prospect that the 1933 conference of the Federation of Chambers of Commerce of the British Empire may take place in Auckland. As soon as the cabled news was received that the conference was to be held in -New Zealand, the Auckland chamber communicated with the associated chambers of commerce of New Zealand and with its London representative on the Federation of the British chambers, pointing out the claims which Auckland had for selection. The council decided to send forward to next conference of the federation the following remit:—.“This conference deplores the increasing lack of cordiality manifest in trade relations between some of the units of the British commonwealth of nations, and urges the desirability of maintaining at the lowest possible levels all tariffs between different parts of the Empire, with a view to the development of interempire trade."
