One of tho delegates representing the , / Australian fruit and produce interests, who visited London on behalf of the ; Federal Government to enqniro into -J questions of reciprocal treatment and trade generally, has returned to Sydney. ; Tho impression gained was that while business men in London and the provinces were opposed to any mention, of . preference duties it is fully recognised now that the Empire Economic Confer enco must evolve some machinery that will assure the Dominions closer preferential trading conditions. The delegate added that the atmosphere was never better for the development of closer trade relations between Australia and tho Homeland. 7As a result of in- ■ quiiies he urged the need for careful attention to grading and packing goods, and the standardisation of qualities of butter and honey, in order to compete with goods from other supplying countries.
