STIMULUS OF TRADE.
BRITISH INDUSTRIES FAIR. (Australian and N.Z. Cable Assn.) LONDON, May 6. At the Government luncheon on the occasion of the British Industries Fair, at which most of the High Commissioners were present, Hon. Sidney Webb, president of the Board of Trade, who presided, expressed the hope that the fair would inlluence British trade in the same manner as the Leipzig and Nijninovgorod fairs did the Continental trade before the war. He urged the 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 manufactures was maintained the Dominions would always be open to receive British goods.
