The contract for the bridge and associated works has just been signed and the development will eventually cost about $16,000,000 The contract price for the bridge is roughly $7,000,000. The bridge, will be more than two miles in length. With its com- nletion and the building of some railway lines, Nyasaland will have ! 4 rail outlet to thie port of Beira on | the East African coast, through Portugese Last Africa, The Zam- besi does not run throurh Nyasa- land but forms a great barrier to the south of tlie protectorate. At present railways run to both sides of it but cannot cross, .At the same time an extension of the railway to tap Lake Nyasa, which has hitherto been without railway communiea- { tion to the coast, is being begun. A new company, Nyasaland Railways, {out theke schemes, In additon the Government of Wyasaland js undertaking the im- grovenient of the roads of the Pro- tectorate and of the steamship ser- vices on Lake Nyasa.

This is a fact of im- portance in explaining the present situation, since within the space of a year wholesale prices have drop ned 15 per cent, and {n many cases Colonial Development Mund, have even reached the pre-war lev. pute | plane, and they became greatly in- an end to all doubt as to the con-|tiers in Europe through the disin- the | tegration gee my alarm clock working.

A comparison between the tariff levels of the various countries be- fore and after the war brings out no Denmark, Holland, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria and Sweden have the lowest tariffs. After the war, however, the young countries built up high tariff walls with the intention of establishing raw indus- tries of their own and to attain | economic Independence, It seems | probable, the author says, that those states will realize that the barriers have to be adjusted down- | wards and that they cannot attain a high level of national prosperity unless they, in their own interest follow the example set them by as bridge | comparable older states such as for instance, Sweden, Holland and Switzerland. In order to arrive at a general adjustment for the benefit of Euro- pean economic co-operation as a tho author suggests as a ba- sis of discussion that the states of Furope might conclude a treaty o the following terms: (a) Tariffs shall be permissable, but the tariff rates ghall be limited to a maximum | of, say, 20 percent. ad valorem. (b) | The duties on goods imported from the other contracting states, who take part in this treaty, shall be-xe- duced to half; that is to say, a tars iff rate of, at the highest, 10 per- cont, shall he applied to those coun: tries, This would mean the esta- blishing of a preferential system vithin Europe, bit also a certain deviation may in some cases have 'ts drawbacks. The general ad- vantages gained by a maximation of tariffs and the establishing of a wi- der market in Europe will far out- weigh these drawbacks. Dr. Jacobson points out, that the trade situation in Europe would be vastly improved, if a treaty was soncluded on these lines. He analy- =o8 the possibilities and advantages of & number of countries as parties to such a treaty and arrives at the conclusion that it should be accep- table to all of them, He expresses the wish that his plan shall be sub- mitted to open and general discus- sion.'
