The Liberal Party does not need to prove that it opposes lilgh tariffs or that it would have followed s different course at the Conference. The former is well known and the latter assumed. Whatever Liberal members may say in the debate to show their dissatisfaction will not alter the hot that agreement; have been made by the Government at present entrusied with the country's administration, and will not. prevent them from going into operation, The most they cI-n do is predict unsatisfactory results for the nation. the Empire and the world.

The Opposition has nothing to lose by letting the it. ‘ prove or ..' .- ‘ ‘ _.., w“ ‘ challenge, and may have something to gain. The llne of anticipated attack is said to cover three points: That the five-yes: period of the agreements is an infringement of sound princip- les under democratic government. that the tariffs against British goods in many particulars are still higher than are Justified and penalize "l6 consumer, and that obstacles are placed in the way of lowering the in- lgnnedlntg and general tariff if favorable opportunity crises to make reciprocal DITSIIIQIIICD" with the United States. On the whole, it is argued that "Canada first" obtrudes itself altogethe too bluntly. Were a general reply sought to these objections, the obvious one would be that the principles running thrmuh the agreements were aroepicd by official my: of all ‘ ' and ‘ ' y, and, for the time being at leali». rcpreserlt the collective judgment of the Empire. Thc flve~yesr period may conflict with Gvvws ment theories, but on the ground of common sense it should be acknowledged that any major busi- ness readjustment requires time. The McKenno, duties and other sale- guarding duties in Britain were adopted for lengthy specific periods, all was the trade agreement with the West Indies. A; merits designed to strengthen Empire bonds and Empire trade, no mailer what the tariff policy, should be for terms long enough to ensure stabilization, and there is no good reason for assuming that Empire affairs should he sublert l0 arrangements between a Dosainicu and a foreign country. For tho- are- leni, at my rate, we have Secretory Sfluuou’: word, passed in Philadel- phls d few days ago, that Americans have never differed In holdlrl! that their tariff policy must avoid “such an apple of discord as the bar- gaining tariff."
