* * We congratulate the Department of Overseas Trade on

producing a full and detailed catalogue of the British Indus- tries Fair a full month before the show opens at the White City, on February 21st to March 4th. Looking through these pages should confirm our belief in a trade revival. The Department is using every mtans in its power to bring this advance edition to the notice of overseas buyers, and we have • no doubt that its enterprise will be rewarded. There is vast industrial power in Englaed. The 128 pages of advertisements in this catalogue would prove it, if proof were needed.
