Evidence was Dmvidéd t!!!‘ Japanese goods are being laid down in London at prices that are an in- finitesimsl fraction of the coats of British manufacturers. Japan has replied with similar propagana. Numerous pamphlets. weeial editions of Tokyo newspap- ers. booklets etc, have come to the ofiioe of The Financial Post to de- ny the allegations made against Japanese industry and the Japanen government. Nevertheless. the proof lies in the flsums and Japan il gaining export markets while Big- land and European countries an losing them. In the past two year! Japanese exports of cotton piece ‘goods have increased by-fl per cent while those o! the British have fal- len by 54 per cent.
