London, July, 1925. The report just issued by the Commi. tee on Industry and Trade appoiated by Mr. Ramsay MacDonald when Prime Minister, is a valuable piece of work. It covers only one of the main subjets of enquiry the factors operating in foreign markets by wbicb the development of British export trade is, or may be, affected; and two otber volumes are to be devoted to such subjacts as industrial efficiency and the relations between those engaged in industry. But it is obvious that these volumes deal with much more controversial matter; and the committee, which was carefully selected to be as represeаtative as possible.
will bave more difficulty in prepariog a unanimous report. It is probable that the present volume would bave shown some sigos of the different views of the various members of the Committee if it had attempted to deal with recommendations for the improve.
ment of trade. But contining itself to a survey of conditions the Committee bad produced a report which no one is likely to challenge.
So much discontent is felt about our trade, 90 many attempts are constantly being made to make political capital out of the number of the unemploped or about a decline in our exports that it is of immense importance to have this thorougbly authoritative survey of the actual conditions. The first ouestion ore expects to answer is, how far is British trade holding its own against its competitors old and new? To this question a very careful reply is kiven. Ii we cons der in bass values alone, the proportion of export trade secured by this country has actually increased slightly since before the war.
But if course the general level of prices has risen and there has been a change in the average value of our exports. The two factors moderate any tendency to rejoice that, on a basis of values, our Export trade has improved, lo point of fact there is a decline in the volume of exports as compared win the years before the war. Taking the year 1913 as the standard the actual volume of our exports in the year 1923 was only about three quarters ul pre war level.
but neither of those statements River wbolly just view of the uation If the basis of value is 10) assuring, the basis of volutue is too discouraging. The report goes on to point out tbat British lad: 18 suffering no more than the trade of and other country.
We still secure the same sbare of the world trade that we enjoyed before the wa. but there is less to go round. Toe Committee could find no special factor in the decline of our trade except that, of course, Great Britain depends so greatly upon her foreign trade to maintain employment of her population.
In so far as our trade has suf tered it is due to world forces which operate with intensity against the trade of other exporting countries.
The world forces are well known The decline of purchasing power of our customers is, says the repor, a 1actor of decreasing importanc.
There are other related factors such as the instability of th: exchanges, the dearth of capic: and toancial and economo Weakness. Many attempts have been made to minimise the effect of these conditors, The Exports Credit Act has bad an important iofluence upon them; but it does not cover all the difficulties and a Committee has just been ap.
pointed the Department of Overseas Trade to consider another aspect of the problem.
Can workable scheme be evolved for insurance against bad debts in export trade? This is the question which the Committee will investigate: and, as a gecd deal of preliminary work has been done already there is a Od prospect of a scheme being produced But to return to the report on our foreign trade. Another question which the Committee attempted to answer was bow tar local manufactures are affecting our exports? The report points out that the war intensi tied tendencies to manufacture locally instead of importing, but it draws attention to two cousiderations. Some of the wartime developments will not Canadian Repartee At Wembley.
