THE RUBBER MARKET
QUESTION OF CONTROL RESTRICTIONS REMAIN British Wireless. — Copyright. RUGBY, Wednesday. In the House of Commons, the Colonial Secretary was asked whether, in view of the increase in the production of rubber outside the restriction area, and of the recent fall in the price of this commodity, he was contemplating the withdrawal or a substantial modification of the restriction scheme in force. Mr. Amery replied that in the present circumstances he did not contemplate either a withdrawal or any alteration in the price on which it was based, or any other substantial variation in the provisions. If any change were to become necessary, he would endeavour to give as long notice as possible. With regard to minor improvements in the working scheme which might be considered desirable in the light of experience, he would repeat, as he had stated in February last, that so long as the conditions under which the present scheme was operating remained substantially the same, he did not propose to suggest any substantial modification of its provisions. He was not aware that any substantial change had taken place in those conditions in the interval. —A. and N.Z.
