FINLAND’S “BRITISH WEEK”
PRINCE OF WALES’ MESSAGE. (British Official Wireless.) Rec. 5.5 p.m. Rugby, Sept. 3. The Prince of Wales and President Svinfiufvud, joint patrons of the “British Week” in Finland, which begins on Monday, have sent good wishes to the enterprise. The Prince says: “This generous gesture of friendship by Finland is appreciated by the British people.” The President expresses the belief that it will greatly increase the possibilities of successful trade development between the two countries.
The suggestion for the “British Week” in Finland was made from the Finnish side last spring during a visit to Helsingfors of the United Kingdom trade mission. It was warmly taken up and has had full support from the Governments of both countries.
