“MADE IN JAPAN” HABIT
GOODS FLOOD BRITISH MARKET. GERMAN GLUT RECALLED. By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. London, Aug. 16. The Evening News says that the “made in Japan” habit is beginning to supersede the “made in Germany” habit prevailing before the war in Britain. An astonishing variety of Japanese articles is flooding the British markets at prices with which competition is impossible owing to the low wages and long hours of the Japanese operatives. Japanese competition is the chief topic with leading Manchester shippers and manufacturers dealing with Australia. Japan’s present drive affects every type of cotton and artificial silk piece goods. It was learned with interest that the Japanese cotton delegation is arriving in September when the question of competition in every market will be discussed.
