Everygsvoter will need to be a statistical specialist. How else will be he be sure that the figures that he reads are cor- rect? « But he will need to be more than a statistical speec- ialist. He must learn to judge whether the figures are quoted i their right relation! ; For instar ce, here are a few figures that are beginning to go the the rounds, and the inference is that failures recorded are due to insufficient taviff=t6 protect the "industries from American" competition. The figures quoted are given by Dui's Record d of Commercial Failures in Canada: Business 'Pailures in 1924, 2474; liabilities, $64,530,975. Manufacturing failures in 1924, 625; liahjlities, $36,542,658. There is no need to dispute the figures. They are doubt- less acearate. But there is need to question the reason given for these failures. Has the tariff been ssterially Tower ed during the padt four years? Two years ago there was a downward revision of the tariff on farm implements, but not enough to please the farmers. Otherwise, so far as we know, the tariff is substan- tially the same as when the present-Government took office. Indeed we believe that the Opposition have twitted the Gov- ernment upon this matter, claiming that the election pledges re lower tari(f were not being carried out. In point of fact no government has lowered the tariff to any-marked degree since Sir John A. McDonald introduced the National Policy. Only one serious attempt to radically lower the tariff has "been made for many years. That attempt was made in 1911, when the Reciprocity Treaty was proposed. The proposal was * defeated, and beyond the British Preferende, the rest of the tariff history seems to have been a matter of adjustments." This being so, it would appear that low tariff has not been the cause of business failures: nor high tariff a sure founda- + tion fer business prosperity; =< Ri =» . <i in front of the Gran Stand number- |. .

The chief of these is.the debt due to the war; second is the immense dawelopment in highways, hydro, public works, ete. We have potentially eugugh of these, and enough "governing force for a population of twenty 'millions, and" we have not half that number. Still another factor to be. considered in connection with business failures is the tremendous growth of the automobile industry.
