VALUE GF DOMINION MARKETS. LONDON, February 15. Sir Max Muspratt, speaking at the Colonial Institute luncheon, emphasised that the high standard of living which the Dominions maintained meant a high consumption of chemicals. China’s population was fifty .times that of Australia, but China imported from Britain only one-third more chemicals than Australia. Despite their troubles, the Chines weer developing their consumption of chemicals, but as the population of Australia increased, they would potentially be infinitely greater consumers of Britain’s chemical products.— (A. and N.Z.)
