COMPETITION FROM CONTINENT. CUT ANNOUNCED BY HOME FIRMS. By Telegraph—Press Assn.—-Copyright. Received Sept. 1, 8.15 p.m. London, Sept. 1. An effort is being made to recover the dominance of British heavy steel. Makers offer a rebate of 7s 6d a ton on joists and 5s a ton on other defined materials to consumers not purchasing from the Continent. Signatories point out that the present imports mean idle collieries, coke ovens, furnaces and iron and steel works, while certainly over 100,009 workers idle are losing their skill.
