Export Maximum

(Canadian Press) SYDNEY, N. 3., Aug. 25.—Crew of z the French schooner Dc Broieliandci arrived here today with word of the loss of their ship on rocks off the Greenland coast. De Broieliandc, a three-master of steel construction,‘ struck and sank on Aug. 8, six miles: oil.’ the coast, members of the crew’ said. They were taken on board the French sloop of war Ville D'ys for transport home.

The export maximum provision is of course of immediate import- ance. It is seen as removing the threat of dumping or price-cutting because all the big exporters will have their own quota to fulfill. The exact figures for each have not been worked out but Canada's share will roughly be probably the same as she would export anyway. The difference is that her market is assured.
