TRADE CONVENTION ACHIEVES LITTLE
POSITION CLEARER By Cable.—Press Association. — Copyright. GENEVA, Monday. Although nothing definite has yet been accomplished by the Trade Conference the position is clearer. So far difficulties have arisen with certain States which desire to maintain the temporary prohibitions which are actually In force. For example, Britain has prohibited the importation of dyes, and as an offset Germany has made what is considered to be a compensating prohibition in respect to pit coal. Other European countries, owing to the cost of coal, have had to keen back their resources, such as iron and other commodities. The present attitude of the States now represented at Geneva is to allow the maintenance of the existing prohibitions for a limited period. The opinion is j ’ + he convention will prove to be a milk-and-water affair and have little binding force. —A. and N.Z.
