_For _forty years we have worked together. Have we not both prospered ,_ _ 
?
We buy from you most of what youigrow. You buy from us most of what we
make. That has been and is the basis of our alliance.
The manufacturing establislimentslin Canada employ- nearly 700,000 people. Their wage-roll is
' about $700,000,000 a year. Moreover, they buy annually nearly $2,000,000,000 worth of rnw‘material,
mostly in Canada. Around these _factories are ccngregetecl a hundred other forms of business. All
' these are your customers, and _'statistics show that this home market is four times as valuable to you as
your entire foreign market. Decrease its buying powers, and your sales lessen and your prices drop.
The Prairie Grain Growers are urging' the Govern-
ment to throw down the tariff wall between Canada and
the United States because they want to save n little money
(mainly on freight rates) by buying from the United
States manufacturers just ‘south of them. They, who
constitute about 20 per cent. of the agricultural population
of Canada, ask _all the other farmers, who constitute the
remaining 80 per cent., to change the policy which they
have supported for forty years. _ `
Furthermore, to raise the Dominion _Government re-
venue, tliey would substitute for the tariff, which collected
last year about 60 per cent. of that revenue, an increase of
income taxes, inheritance taxes, corporation taxes and
taxes on unimproved land values. As it is quite obvious
that such taxes would affect the farmer but little, this is
the inducement they are using to get you to forsake us and
follow the free trade prophets no one knows where.
We think this appeal will `fail. First, ibecausc it
seems to be founded on the assumption that the farmers
of Canada want to slip out of paying any increased taxes
that may be needed for soldiers' pensions, grntuities and
' GREAT BRITAIN is shutting out tlicgoods of other
countries (except the Dominions). FRANCE and ITALY
are abutting out the goods of other countries _by import
restrictions. ' _ "
_ THE. DEMOCRATIC PARTY in the United States,
wliicli advocates low tariffs, seems to be going out of
power, and the Republicans, -who always support high
tariffs, have now n majority in both Senate and Congress.
Do you think that this means that the United States’ tariff
i, going. up or down?
How A Minority Seek to Severf Our Alliance
re-establishment. We have found in all our experience
that the farmers of Canada are not this class of mcn._
Second, because the argument is unsound. lt requires
little reflection to see that if our market is thrown open
and flooded, many of our manufacturers, caught in the
struggle to re-adjust themselves from war to peace con-
ditions, will not be able to keep going. Would this not
result in many of our people, unless tl-iey were able and
willing to take up farming, leaving for the United States?
Would not the rest of the population then, which might
consist chiefly of farmers, have to pay all the taxes? '
» 'The Grain Growers do not represent the entire popu~
lation of the Prairie Provinces. They do not represent
thebusiness population; they do not by any means repre-
sent all the farmers. The Prairie Grain Growers' Associ~‘
ations are dominated by ta group of free traders whose
one idea seems to be to get free trade all over the world.
Unfortunately for their theories, just at the present time
all the rest of the world seems desirous of getting protec~
tion. .
Tariff Policy of Other _Nations 0
SOUTH AFRICA is increasing its tariff. Australia,
New Zealand, Newfoundland, Japan, Brazil and Portugal
are all jealously maintaining their tariffs.
Why is this wave of protection sweeping over the
worlcl? In a word, because the various countries are try-
ing to produce all they need at home, in order to provide
work for their own people--many of them returned
soldiers. _ .
Why then is this Western minority of the farmers' of
Canada determined to go in the exactly opposite direction?
d t 'n an sense intend as they sometimes say, to show hos-
'_ fn opposing the demands of the Grain Growers, wc_ o no l y . , yy
ift to tla"c They are our customers Is not our prosperity affected by theirs? Beyond all this, if the farmers do
t ly*  _ _ _  - 
not prosper, neither we nor the country can prosper. Agri :ulturc and industry are the basis of the country’s strength.
' ~ ' l ‘ d b t t th hole
» But we feel that these demands of.tl1c.Crain Grower.. aim A deadly blow, not on y at in ustry tt a e w
fans`1in¢.,community. ' ' _ ‘_
. what justifies the Grain Growers in demanding that t’1c_ir personal grievances be cured at the_expen|_e of the rest 'of
the country? Arc they in a desper`a`te` position? Have they been losing heavily? Are they suffergig from too much
- . _ ff- l -2 I - ' _ - 7
adversity
or too much success? ,Are they _ln any danger comparable to._thc one_grcat danger in Cana a now -
_ THE DANGER OF UNEMPLOYMENT
the da 'er which may place thousands in _need of shelter, food and clothing'
?
cl cl h nt safely restored to a peace basis, the
Most Cai<1i'lians feel strongly that until this danger is avoide , an 't o cou ry » '
I A t' lsould not be el"turbed by any tariff controversy at all
“F l'°n;Nl\en this danger is passed, and the country knows ivhcre is stands, and what other couiiitriea of th; world ‘arc

‘going  do, then the tariff ,question slroulcl be taken up and such at tariff should be' framed as wi sur , o e m nu
