RUBBER TRADE
RESTRICTIONS DISCUSSED SUPPORT FOR GOVERNMENT (A. & N.Z.) LONDON, April 19. Sir Erie Geddes, presiding at the annual meeting of the Dunlop Rubber Company, expressed the opiniou that the Government id right in ending the rubber restrictions, but wrong in doing so without fuller regard to the interests involved. The industry should be given more than seven months’ notice to adjust itself. The restriction had failed to give manufacturers anything like stable prices, said Sir Eric. “I hope it will never be resuscitated. An anxious period will undoubtedly intervene, but no doubt the rubber industry as a whole will be sturdier, stronger, and more stable, if allowed to manage its own affairs.”
