McEWEN & SON, Auctioneers Ontario Engaged in Catechetical Discus- sion, in Which Mr. Staples' Weakness was Shown UNETEl] FEHMEES RiS1llfil BR To the Tariff Commission Which Contained Some Very Peculiar Ideas STAPLES AND DRAYTON d, As a concrete example of tariff evils, Mr. Staples declared that in 1919 there was manufactured in Can- ada cotton goods to the value of more than $66,000,000, while exports for the year amounted to almost $3,000,- 000 and, therefore, approximately $63,000,000 worth of cotton goods was marketed at home. These goods were protected to the extent of 25 per cent. "In other wordN" Mr. Staples said, "protection by making possible the manufacture ot these goods in Cana- da deprived our treasury of $15,750.- 000 from customs duties." And not only did the Treasury lose $15,750,- 000 by this deplorable habit of manu- facturing at home and employing Canadian labor, but this particular case afforded "a characteristic exam- ple ot double taxation due to Protec- tive tariff." Mr. Staples worked it out this way, if $15,750,000 due to the protective tariff was paid by the con- sumer, it went into somebody"s pock- et, but not into the public treasury. Public revenue had to be provided and, therefore, the Minister ot Pr. nance was compelled to make it up bxifiome form, of taxation. And so, the" consumer paid $15,750,0()() all over again. Sir Henry Drayton: Was it a bad thing tor Canada to buy at home $63.000,000 worth of cotton? 7 Mr. Staples: I have not been in bus- iness in cities except buying necessi- ties for my own home. _ Mr. Staples felt so strongly 0n the subject of favorable trade balances that Sir Henry naturally asked him what should be done in Canada to? bring about a favorable trade balance with the" United States, but Mr. Staples did not feel “competent to enter into details of that discussion." Again, Mr. Staples informed the com- mission that "not long ago a state- ment was made to me by a manufac- turer in Western Ontario and also by a manufacturer in Nova Scotia that from a particular machine which they have had to use, the duty was removed some years ago. Since then they have secured Canadian-made machines cheaper and of a much bet- ter quality than were obtained for- merly." Sir Henry Drayton was ea- ger to secure the name of this par- ticular machine, but Mr, Staples could not tell him. Returning to ur. Staples' charge that "the protective tariff directly fostered class organization and class selfishness," Sir Henry Drayton asked the natural question: "Is there any more trouble here than in England of that sort?" Sir Henry Drayton: Does that duty ,go. to the extent of try- ing to bring about conditions that will afford employment in the coun- try? But My. Staples would not say that there was more here. Sir Henry Drayton: Your idea is that the farmer is more honest than other people. __ Mr. Staples: 1 think so. Labor is an integral part ot the citizenship ot the country. Mr. Staples: If one looks at the testimony laid before this board in connection wih the protective tariff, I don't think you could dispute that. Sir Henry Drayton: Then you say there is there is more here? Mr. Staples: I maintain that condi- tions make it possible, or that it may be so. Mr. Staples: As affording employ- ment to citizens, but possibly not di- rectly fostering it. Sir Henry Drayton: Do you think, Mr. Staples, that the country has any duty at all towards labor? Mr. Staples: No, Sir, not at all; If TIMES k GUIDE, 1s._qjpjr10Sr"- Sir Henry Drayton: Dty You know what the American price was last year? Because I am pretty Ct:mfident that you are an investigator as you are a teacher. What was the Amen? can price last year? exact more from the Canadian con- sumer. haven't you? Mr. Staples: Yes, Sir. Sir Henry Drayton: Then I assume you say that knowing something of the subject. How much more was he able to exact? Mr. Staples: I cannot tell you that. Sir Henry Drayton: What prices did the Canadian consumer pay? Mr. Staples: I cannot tell you that. Sir Henry Drayton: Do you nov' what the American prices were? Mr. Staples: I understand they were very high last year, Sir Henry Drayton: During what period would you say that was so? Sir Henry Drayton: Why, Mr. Staples, you have just said that the Canadian manufacturer was able to Sir Henry Drayton: Do you under stand what the Canadian prices were last year? Mr. Staples: No, Sir. Sir Henry Drayton: Then, not knowing that, do you think that is a, fair remark for you to make? You see, we have had evidence-it may be all untrue, but we do like to get facts -which evidence, if I remember rightly, showed that there was a dif- ference of 8 cents a yard on rough cottons, that they were to that extent cheaper in the Canadian market than in the United States market. Now, it that is not true, I wish you would tell me what the truth is. N My. Staples: I cannot tell you that, but that is not the point I attempt to make there. Sir Henry Draywm Then what frrt I Mr. Staples: I am ctmrp1ahilng that you complaining about? the manufacturer of that cotton must surely have been able to exact a great deal higher toll for his finished pro- duct from the consu‘mer. W Mr. Staples: I state oy? the figures of last year. Sir, Sir Henry Drayton: Then, if you cannot, don't you think that is some- thing you ought to know before mak- ing" a sweeping statement like that? Staples: I cannot dispute that an}. _ l}..£r. - _ , " " I - - (r . - . ' "' tetttEtlt "tAe MIE'aal- r. ' 24 gm ' .
