§ 19. Mr. BURNETT (for Sir P. HURD)asked the President of the Board of Trade to what extent Lancashire cotton goods are now finding an increased market in Canada under the Ottawa Agreement?
§ Mr. RUNCIMANParticulars of our exports of cotton goods to Canada are published in the monthly and annual trade returns. During the year 1934 exports to Canada of cotton yarns were double, and exports of piece-goods more than double, the quantity exported in 1932.
§ Mr. HAMMERSLEYIs it a fact that a more generous interpretation of the Ottawa Agreement would enable Lancashire to export much more without doing any harm to any Canadian producing interest and with benefit to the Canadian consumer?
