ANGLO-GERMAN TRADE TREATY IS CRITICISED.
WILL BE DENOUNCED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. (Received March 8, 8.50 a.m.) LONDON, March 7. The Berlin correspondent of “The Times” reports:— “Germany will denounce the AngloGerman trade treaty at the earliest possible date, with a view to securing a fresh basis for trade,” said Dr Julius Curtius, Minister of Economic Affairs, agreeing with deputies who were criticising the British attitude. The correspondent explains that Dr Curtius was referring to the increase of the British safeguarding duties and the extension of the merchandise marks regulations since the treaty was negotiated in 1924, when Britain was virtually' free trade. The Germans now complain that they granted Britain most favoured nation treatment for nothing, and declare that complaints have been useless. The treaty cannot be denounced until 1929.—“ Times” Cables.
