NATIONAL INTERESTS
Speaking at the annual convention of the British Advertising Association, Mr. Stanley Bruce, Australian Minister in London, said the Economic Conference started i with the idea that it might be possible to bring about some international understanding to remove the dogs on iridustry to-day. But so far it had really achieved nothing, and it appeared to him that the idea of a great international understanding being brought about immediately was impossible of realisation, because at the moment there was a lack of understanding of its necessity, and one was always up against the selfish national interest of individual peoples. That barrier had to be broken down, but it would take time. He thought the immediate solution was that they would have to have national arrangements, expanded into bilatefal arrangements where complemenfary production was suitable to individual national needs. Nowhere was that more possible than inside the group of nations known as the British Empire. They might hope that such arrangements might break down .trade barriers, and that there might then be a chance of coming back to the point of a great international understanding.
