Empire trade and the imperial economy in decline
A. M. Samuel warns that Britain and Australia share a shrinking trade, arguing that world demand exists but Australia misses its portion due to high prices. Barclay's Bank figures show UK imports down 63.0 million and exports down 53.9 million in early 1930, driven by declines in food, drink, tobacco, and raw materials. The trend, driven by reduced manufactured exports, suggests a broader imperial impact and urges action within the Empire.
