The Situation in the
Trade for Hides and Skins

together with an unusually excellent
domestic business, the demand for
hides will remain very satisfactory,
naturally bringing about higher prices
for all raw material. or course under
the present abnormal conditions cx
isting everywhere we believe that any
far reaching operation is inadvisablc.
although in a general way we think
this country can look with confidence
towards the future, for the Fundamental
conditions are sound.
I'VE take the liberty. Of suggesting
closer co operation between this Gov
ernment and foreign Powers for the
purpose of facilitating business. Our
ilrm, as well as the entire hide and skin
trade. and indirectly the leather in,
dustry, has been considerably handi
capped by the strict and at times un.
fair censorship on cable communicate ion
with neutral countries, and the many
restrictions placed on expectations by
some of the European Governments.
These contain goods of no practical
use to them, and yet SO far no arrange
ment has been made to bring these goods
to our market, which in some instances
has accordingly suffered.
"If a definite understanding could be
brought about it would be a great help
and our firm would gladly tender its
services at any time"
