AUSTRALIAN REPRESENTATIVE
DISGUSTED
(Recci/ed Juno 26, 9.10 p.m.)
London, June 26.
Mr Donald Campbell, the Commonwealth representative on the Imperial Trade Commission, interviewed, said he had endeavoured to induce tho Commission to take evidence and make recommendations concerning inter-Do-minion reciprocal Customs treaties, but tho chairman ruled adversely.
,Mr Campbell says this practically excludes all forms of preference, including tariff and subsidies 'for-'shipping, and will reduce the scope of the Commission's usefulness. He questions the 1 justification, of expenditure upon it.
