(Received January 25, 11.5 p.m.). The Committee of the Association of British Motor Manufacturers has adopted a resolution endorsing the action of the Society of Motor Manufacturers in refusing to exhibit at Wembley this year, declaring that the interests of the trade are best served by the development of exhibitions in the dominions, like the All-British Show in Melbourne last year. The secretary of the Association points out that plans are being prepared for further dominion exhibitions.
