EMPIRE FREE TRADE
GUIDING IDEAL OF BRITISH PRODUCERS MELCHETT AS CHAIRMAN (Australian and NZ. Press Association) (United Service) LONDON, Saturday. Lord Melchett has accepted the chairmanship of the council of the Empire Producers’ Organisation. He has issued a statement saying: “The peace and progress not only of the Empire, but of the world, depends largely on the sane, well-founded Empire economic policy, free from the distorting effects of party controversy.' There is no more important factor in this respect than the organisation of producers on an Empire-wide basis. “I regard Empire free trade as a guiding ideal. It is a genius of Britain’s to obtain the best practical results from an ideal without sacrificing legitimate local needs and aspirations. “We must create throughout Britain faith in the Empire. It is of vital importance to our unity in peace and in war. Its .resources, its capacity for consumption, its markets and development, are so vast that we have only touched the fringe of them. It is impossible to say what the limits would be.”
