BRITISH INDUSTRIES FAIR
LONDON, May 5. At a Government luncheon on the occasion of the British Industries Fair, at which most of the High Commissioners were present, Mr. Sidney Webb presiding, expressed the hope that the fair would influence British trade in the same manner as the Leipzig and Nijninovgorod fairs did Continental trade before the war. He urged British Dominions to participate more prominently in the fair, and quoted figures to show that British trade was the most successful in the world. Sir James Allen said that so long as the excellence of British manufacturers was maintained, the Dominions would always be open to receive British goods.
