The Craving for Cheapness in Australian Trade
M C Wickes, Britain’s trade commissioner in Australia, told Perth Chamber of Commerce that UK goods faced stiff British competition from American and German suppliers. He cited 1887 to 1907 import growth showing Britain losing ground as Australians favor cheap articles, with buyers in London pushing for low-cost options from any source. He warned Australian workers and employers alike of the national risks of cheapness.
