§ Lieut.-Colonel Bromley-Davenportasked the President of the Board of Trade why it has been considered necessary, on page 15 of the pamphlet publicising the British Industries Fair, to include a 17W list of other European trade fairs taking place in March, April and May; and what arrangement has been made with the other trade fairs in question to obtain some reciprocal benefit in return for this publicity which they have received at British expense.
§ Mr. P. ThorneycroftMore overseas buyers are likely to be attracted, particularly from outside Europe, to undertake the trouble and expense of a journey to the British Industries Fair if they are informed how they can conveniently include visits to other fairs in the same trip. For that reason we consider it worth while to give this publicity to such fairs, whether or not they reciprocate. In fact many of them do.
