GENUINE PREFERENCE

NEW ZEALAND’S ATTITUDE APPRECIATION IN ENGLAND “New Zealand’s genuine preference for English goods is very much appreciated at Home,” said Mr. W. H. Bosworth, who arrived by the Maheno from Sydney yesterday. Mr. Bosworth, who is a director of the Lancashire Dynamo and Motor Co., London, states that the electrical engineering business is very busy in Lngland at the present time, but prices are bad. This despite the fact that the industry is busier than any other trade. “Last year England led the world in tho export of electrical engineering goods,” ho continued. “England is very much alive to business. I don’t care what part of the world one goes to every ship will be filled with representatives of English firms. There is not a market in the world where competition among tho manufacturers is not keen. “One of the finest things is to know that English goods are still preferred everywhere and that they live up to their reputation.” Mr. Bosworth said that tho competition among English manufacturers for the New Zealand market, and other markets, has resulted in unremunerativo prices This must go on until th<? demand increases; and until that is done the manufacturers must suffer, though such countries as New Zealand will benefit. Mr. Bosworth is on a tour of the world, calling on the representatives and agencies of his company. lie has already been through the East and Australia, and will return to England via South Africa.
