The representatives of 200 firms from B^ingtam
and the surrounding districts visited t ^
mules Exhibition that was held m the othces of
| nnm'ham Chamber of Commerce f;rom Monday,
20th September, to Thursday, 23rd September.
The samples-which were of German, Swedish,
Swiss French Argentine, and United States manu ac-
tuTe-were collected by H.M. Trade Commissioners
and Commercial Secretaries in India, Holland, Finland
Switzerland and South America, and comprised
Aluminium' ware, Enamel ware, Tools, Electrical
Goods, and Brushes and Brooms.
The samples which excited mosl interest were the
Aluminium ware and Enamel ware of recent German
manufacture ; the general opinions expressed being that
the former were priced considerably above better class
^oods of British manufacture, and that from such com-
pedition home firms had nothing to fear. The Enamel
ware also was considered of low grade and high price.
The Brushes.—mainly of Argentine manufacture-—•
were an indication of the extent to which that country
had developed her home industries in this particular
line during the war, and although crude in finish and
construction, were made of good quality material, and
illustrated a form of competition that could not lightly
be disregarded.
Most of the domestic electrical goods were of Swiss
and United States manufacture, and local firms engaged
in producing similar articles found a good deal to inter
est them in the methods of manufacture, particularly in
respect of minor devices that suggested ideas for im
provement m their own products. About 200 samples
were loaned to firms at the close of the Exhibition
for further examination.
MOTOR SHOW IN NEW ZEALAND.
The Department of Overseas Trade is informed that
a Motor Show will take place at Christchurch in
November next. The Show should offer a good oppor
tunity for British manufacturers having local agents in
New Zealand to extend their business.
