Great Britain Has
Cost Problem in
The Dye Industry
Rise in Prices Said To Be
Due to Increased Outlay;
Germany Resumes Lead in
Dye Traffic a, Hongkong

Facts concerning the dye-making in
dustry in Great Britain have Just
reached the Bureau Of Foreign and
Domestic Commerce, in 4 report from
its European division, dealing with
conditions as ascertained by a commit
tee of Parliament The committee
found the principal causes for the
rise in price of dyes in the United
Kingdom to be the higher costs Of raw
materials and of manufacturing in
termediate products. the increased cost
of fuel and labor, and the greater out
lay of capital required for the cree
ton and upkeep of plants.
The cost Of manufacturing inter
mediate products, according to the re-
port, is designated as one of the most
potent factors in the increased cost of
dyes and dye stuFs. Before the war
British industries were producing one
tenth Of the national consumption. the
remaining nine-tenths being imported
principally from Germany The inter
mediate products required by the Brit
lsh industries were purchased from
Germany at cost price, and sometimes
below cost, and as a natural result
British manufacture of these ceased.
With the outbreak Of the war sup
plies from Germany were cut off, and
British industry turned to the manu-
facture of the intermediate products
necessary in making dyes. Due to the
circumstances surrounding the estab-
ishment Of this branch of the industry
such as the amount Of experience

needed for tn greatest efficiency in
production and the capital outlay for
the erection of plants. the cost of these
materials were somewhat higher than
that which obtained for the same kind
of products when procured from Ger
many.
The Department of Commerce also
has a report regarding the Hong Kong
dye trade, which states that the rule
imposing restrictions. Of December 5,
1919, has been repealed According to
Vice Consul William II. Gale the effect
Of this action is to remove the pro-
hibition against the importation into
Hong Kong of foreign dyestufs and
once more to open the trade to all
countries. In operation the rule, which
shut out all but British manufacturers
from the local trade of Hong Kong
apparently fell short of expectations.
British dye manufacturers, it is stated
did not respond to the demands of the
trade, and American and European
manufacturers, despite the difficulty of
maintaining stocks in the colony, man
aged to continue a good volume of
business with Chinese ports.
Germany, now returning to the dye
trade, has practically recovered the
leadership it commanded in China be-
Tore the w Grid War, says the report.
In the first quarter Of last year the
United States had the lead in anilne
dyes. Germany, credited with no dyes
at all in the corresponding period of
1919, was third in aniline dyes in the
first three months Of 1920. In the first
quarter of this year the situation
changed considerably. Germany led all
countries in artificial indigo. The
United Kingdom was second and the
United States third.
Apart from the circumstance that the
prestige Of German dyes in this mar
ket has given them the advantage, the
report points out. the principal factor
in their quick recovery probably has
been the low prices at which they have
been offered. 1t is generally accepted,
says the report, that the good grades
of American dyes are the equal to the
good grades of the German prodScts,
but the agents of the American pro
ducers have not been able to compete
with their German competitors in the
matter of price
