ADDS BRING RESULTS. | "The Bill ivill not let in Canadian wheat, but will save to the American farmer the right to raise a bushel of wheat instead of transferring that right to Canada."-- Mr. Fordney, in introducing the Fordney Emergency Tariff Bill which has shut millions of dollars worth of Canadian foodstuffs out of the United States market. "If we are to build up a self-sustaining agriculture here at home, the farmer must be protected from unfair competition from those _ countries where agriculture is still being exploited."-- President Harding. The very spot chosen to deliver this speech--Minnesota--shows that Harding had the Canadian North-TV est in mind. WHILE ties of friendship unite Canada and the United States, the attitude of Uncle Sam is that of "Business First", and Canada cannot and should not hope for any consideration from the United States where the interests of the farmers and business people of that country are involved. Uncle Sam has built the Fordney Tariff directly against Canadian agriculture, and new additional Tariff proposals are now under consideration to shut out from the United States Canadian goods of every kind. These measures are due to the insistence of the American farmer that the United States market shall be retained exclusively for him and that the influx of Canadian farm products into that country must cease. They are also due to a like insistence of United States manufacturers and workers, who have seen their country develop tremendously and grow rich under a Protective Tariff, and who believe that a still further increase in Tariff is the only means of assuring continued prosperity. CONTRAST THE ATTITUDE OF THE UNITED STATES LEADERS WITH THAT OF CANADA'S WOULD-BE LEADERS, CRERAR AND KING of both agricultural and manufactured products of the United States when there is not the slightest possibility of any compensative advantage to Canada. Does any sane Canadian believe that Crerar or King, hat in hand, could persuade the United States Government to completely reverse its Tariff policies and agree to reciprocal trade in face of American public demand for a high protective Tariff? The people of the United States conduct their affairs and protect themselves by the principle that "Business is business." Why should Canada do otherwise? Unlike Crerar or King, MEIGHEN stands firm for a reasonable Tariff to protect all our i industries -- those of the farm, the sea, the mine, the forest, the factory, and for the building up of a bigger and better Canada through the full development of the home market. King proposes that the present reasonable Tariff on the products of the American factory and farm shall be greatly reduced, and that the home market of the Canadian farmer and manufacturer alike shall be thrown open to our Southern neighbour, in the face of the United States Emergency tariff, which practically shuts out Canadian farm products from these markets, and also in the face of the permanent tariff now under-consideration at Washington, which gives every promise of being even more drastic than the Emergency Tariff so far as our products are concerned. In view of the attitude of the United States, what folly it is for Crerar and King to propose throwing open the Canadian market to a flood FRIENDSHIP WITH THE UNITED STATES? YES, BY ALL MEANS! BUT- let us defend our home market, our industries, our farms, our workmen, our homes by the same methods as are used so effectively Let us work out our own destiny--that of a strong, self-contained nation within the British Empire group of Nations, courageous, masterful, self-reliant. ^_ The National Liberal and Conservative Party Publicity Committee
