At a Government luncheon on the occasion of the British Industries Fair, at which most of the High Commissioners were present, Mr. Sydney Webb, who presided, expressed the hope that the Fair would influence British trade in the same manner ns the Leipzig and Nijninovgorod fairs did Continental trade before the war. He urged the British Dominions to participate more prominently in the fair. He quoted figures to show 'that British trade was the most successful in the world.
