“...Great Britain and the East. January 3, 1942. 9 IRAQ AND MIDDLE EAST TRADE REVIVAL By J. M. BEE WHEN General Nuri as-Said again became Prime Minister of Iraq he took office armed with a compre- hensive policy for the improvement of the country. It may be assumed that Iraq’s inclusion in the sterling area, which was recently announced, represents one im- portant facet of his plans. The development is one of more than ordinary significance.

But, despite her heavy initial responsibilities, she is, in fact, supplying to the Council not less than any other country in the Group, and actually more than most. Between April and October, 1941, for instance, just over 50 per cent, of the orders sent by the Council to countries within its territory have been placed in India, a truly remarkable tribute to the country’s rich and varied...”
