STEADY EXPANSION
DOMINION’S TRADE WITH BRITAIN By Telegraph—Press Association WELLINGTON. March 13. “The British manufacturer quotes his prices to every part of the world cn a sterling basis, and the idea that he puts a black mark against New Zealand for her exchange rate and loves the rest of the world for being in a similar position is just too funny for words. It doesn’t exist,” said Mr David Jones, chairman of the Meat Board, who returned to-day after a six months’ trip to England. “What the British manufacturer does see is that exports from Britain to New Zealand are expanding every year, and in contrast to many other parts of the world New Zealand accounts are promptly paid and there are plenty of funds in Britain to honour our drafts in sterling.” On the quota question, Mr Jones preferred to keep silent, saying that it would be the subject of a subsequent report.
