London, June 9.-The third Congress
of the Chambers of Commerce of the
Empire began its first sitting in Gro
GERS hall at 10 o'clock this morning.
The hall was crowded with delegates
and others. The Right Hon. Joseph
Chamberlain, secretary of state for the
colonies and honorary president of the
congress, delivered a speech welcoming
the delegates, in which he promised the
representatives of Canada that their
proposal of bringing into a closer union
the various portions of the British en-
pire by the creation of a commercs~l
zollyerein would not be met by a blank
refusal from the people of Great Brit
ain. The chambers of commerce of all
the British colonies were represented in
the congress.
MI Chamberlain, in the course of his
remarks spoke of the paramount me-
cessity for the commercial union of the
empire, which, he said, was at the root
of all the problems with which they
had to deal. IT was his opinion that a
customs union was the most feasible of
any Of the proposals which aimed at
commercial union, and it was an essen
tial condition that Great Britain should
consent to replace the import duties
upon certain articles Of large produc-
ton in the colonies such as corn meat,
WOOL sugar. etc, but he thought the
proposal to replace such duties should
emanate from the colonies and not from
the United Kingdom.
