London, Nov. 20.
Ten important British manufacturers are dispatching representatives to south-eastern Europe in an apparent effort to offset the growing German trade expansion, it was learned here.
No Government officials are accompanying the delegation, which is visiting Iron, Egypt, Turkey and Hungary.
The delegation was formed following Germany's indicated policy that it was seeking all-inclusive trade agreements in south-eastern Europe.
Attention was called to Germany's trade clearance agreement which had resulted in a large expansion of German trade in Iran whereas British trade in Iran had declined 25 per cent.—United Press.
