"There are three industries all which prosperity of this Province depends. Were they to fail. or even to go into a slump. the founda- tion of our whole economic struct- ure would collapse, business enter- prise would go into bankruptcy, the unemployment problem would be with us again, and hungry men and women would walk the streets of every town and hamlet. In short we would be right where we were the last time the Conservatives were

(R.euters)- Seven months of in- tcrnstional trade dicllerinl end! tomorrow. Tired men and women from 40 countries taking part in the world tariff conference will hear final speeches from L Dans. Wilgress. Canadian High Commissioner to Britain and conference chairman. and Sir Stephen Holmes of the British Board of Trade.

During the whole seven-month wrangle it proved impossible to patch up a tariff-lowering a. ree- mcnt between the United 5 ates and Britain.

Although it is known the Americans came here ready to make substantial concessions, the price they asked in return from Britain and other Com- i monwenlth countries in terms i of reduced Imperial prefer- ences was not acceptable. Instead of the hoped-for 400

bilateral tariff agreements. only 147 have been completed. Two of the most important parties. Brit- ain and the United states, failed to reach any agreement.

And. as anv concession received by one country is enjoyed by all other under terms of the general agreement on tariffs and trade. failure of the two largest trading powers to agree affected everyone else. i

"Most of these cl'itici.sms con- sist of inaccuracies contained in the sweeping generalities of the speeches made by the Opposition panties. The opponents of our Liberal Government have fallcd miserably in all attempts to find an issue to use against us.
