U. S. TRADE TREATY? ‘

Mr. Bennett, says the Montreal Star, has made it quite clear that his Government will be only m0 glad to negotiate a new trade treaty with the United States and to en- tcrtain any "fair and reasonable proposals which the Roosevelt Ad- ministration may advance. Experi- ence has taught Canada that care must be taken that serious injury to ‘trade resulting from the cancella- l|tlon of such engagements, as in the jpast, may be avoided. Having made this much clear, the Prime Minis- ‘tcr properly called for the with?

an American agreement and the Ottawa treaties at the same time. He culled for a revision of the Unit- cd Kingdom-Canada agrccnlcnt, written at the Imperial Conference so as to leave Canada “irce" to ne- gotiate a reciprocal agreement with the United 'Siatcs—:1s if Canada were not already free, just as Bri- laln ls free to make agreements with Argentina and lhe Scandinav- ian countries.

As Mr. King must know, any sug- gestion of treating the Ottawa pacts as "scraps of paper" is utterly rc- pugnunt to the Canildlail Govern- ment. He is doing a disservice to his American friends cvcn to suggest it in their behalf. Mr. Bclmctt can and will negotiate without destroy- ing Empire preference, provided the Americans offer fair terms.

The Ottawa. agreements affect only one-quarter of the items in the Canadian tariff, about 215 out of a. total of 900 items. Not only are three-quarters of our tariff sched- ules thus open to bargaining with the Uhlted States, but there is ad- mittedly room for accommodation even within the 215 affected items.

Britain has voluntarily foregone the preference on nitrate of soda, for example, for the reason that she is unable to supply Canadian needs. This applies to a. number of chemi- cals also. In other directions there is a long list of items on which con- cessions might well be made, ln rc- turn for a. concrete proposal from the United States. At the moment, advantages for our fish, dairy pro- duce, lumber, and feeder cattle in tho American market are under dis- cussion, as representing n quid pro quo.
