TO PREVENT GERMAN "DUMPING"
A BRITISH-CONTRQLLED CLEARING HOUSE. London, September 22. Colonel Knott, .'President of the British Chamber of Commerce in Germany, interviewed ' llerr Erzberger, Finance Minister, and Herr Schmidt. Minister of Economics, .regarding tho proposnl to establish a clearing house in Berlin to control all exports from Germany to the British Empire anil imports from Britain. Ho states tha]t the German Government has consented in principle to a British official controlling a license department of the Ministry of Economics. This would prevent the "dumping" of German goods in Great Britain. Germany is, however, at. present unable to "dump," as her stocks of manufactures ore very'~small. Colonel Knott states that the idea was that German manufacturers would make their oilers to the central British organisation through tho Berlin clearing house, and only such offers as wero accepted would be allowed to leave Germany. The result.of British control of the clearing house would he to see that the exports did not exceed the imports.—Renter. •
