ANTI-DUMPING BILL.
. UPROAR IN THE COMMONS. THE CLOSURE APPLIED. By Telegraph.—-Press Assn.—Copyright. Received June 1, 9.10 p.m. London, June 1. In the House of Commons an Opposition uproar followed the application of the closure to a debate on a financial resolution in relation to the protection of key industries. The closure was carried by 177 votes to 59.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
[ln March the text was issued of two Government resolutions dealing with key industries and dumping. These are temporary measures pending the introduction of a Bill which will be based thereon. The first resolution imposes during five years an ad valorem duty of 33 1-3 per cent, on a large number of specified articles, notably optical instruments, magnetoes, arc lamp carbons, synthetic and organic chemicals, tungsten and other rare metals. The second resolution imposes a similar duty on goods wholly or partly manufactured abroad, and offered in Britain at prices below the cost of production, or prices which, owing to the depreciated foreign currencies, are below the prices at which similar goods could profitably be manufactured in Britain.]
