London, July 24. The Cabinet will have to make decision this week regarding the trade negotiations with the United States which reached a deadlock on all principal questions.
The negotiators were faced with difficulties which compelled them to give up the general accords reached previously and to limit themselves to much more restricted problems.
Despite this, the negotiations could not make any headway owing to the shrinking of the British and American domestic markets and the impossibility of the former to satisfy the American demands for the enlarging of British markets for agricultural products and building wood from the United States.
Satisfaction could not be granted immediately to the United States owing to the preferential system in favour of Australia and Canada who are the former's largest competitors.
Furthermore, Britain has just renewed her agreement with Australia, without bringing any of the expected alterations which would allow her to conclude an agreement with the United States.
The American Government made it known that they could not modify their viewpoint and asked Great Britain to reconsider its decision—Havas.
