Tokyo Anxious to Obtain New Agreement Tokyo, Feb. 5.
Japanese rayon exporters are alarmed over the difficulty of push= ing transactions with Australia for delivery after July due chiefly to the delay in the conclusion of a new trade agreement The Japanese Textile Importers' Association in Australia state that because of their inability to make any purchases after July, many s there are now inclined to British goods. Should the irmediate conclusion of the new agreement between Japan and Australia be attended with any difficulty, it urges' the fixing up of a provisional agreement A rhe Federation of Silk Rayon Exporters Association in Osaka has sent a deputation to Tokyo to request the Japanese Government to take appropriate measures. The whole matter depends largely on Japan's policy regarding. the purchase of Australian wool, which must be decided on quickly in view of the opening of the new season.—Reuter.
