Scores of'com-` Plliies are engaged in making shells, ln many cases after remodelling, en- lllllnl or' building plants. I-‘or this work much new machinery was nsed~ Od 0! s type which had not been pre- viously manufactured in thiseouiitry, and which is now being successfully made in great quantities. A number of nrms are making cartridge cases, others are mailing shell machining saws. shell nnisliing equipment. shell baking varnish. Avleasteiglit firmasre busy making cordite, T.N.'i‘. and oth- er explosives. Several firms are mak- in! bayonets, others are turning out bits, spurs, saddle arches and trees. saddlery and harness for cavalry. All kinds of military packing boxes and ammunition boxes are being producx sd. Great orders are being executed tor mess tins, trsvellin¢.kitchens and .Woking utensils. Many arms are making small arms ammunition and scores are busy on such articles as bass, sloth, knitted goods, sheep-lim ed costs and wagons. The chemical companies are very busy supplying articles needed for the medical corps and ammunition makers. But it not only in producing war munitions that- Canadian manufactur- ers have made progress since the out- break of the war. Foreign trade was seriously disturbed and many articles which were previously imported could not be had; and, consequently, our manufacturers turned their attention to the possibility of substituting Can- adian-niade articles for those which had been bought abroad. A third field in 'which Canadian manufacturers have made progress is in increfasing`the production of goods used mainly for regular industrial purposes which have been manufac- tured in Canada tor some years. The wibove shows that Canadian manufacturers are doing their best to regain the ground lost during the de~ pression which followed the boom of 1910-11-12 by adapting their industrial equipment to meet changed condi- tions. Our national manufacturing plant was over-specialized on con- struction work. When railroad, town and other building operations came to a staxidstiil manufacturers suffer- ed; but it is gratifying to notice that the whole system is being readiusted to obtain new business in place ,oi that which has been lost. There is every reason for the he lief that Canadzvs industrial develop ment will not meet with any serious reverses when peace is declared, but liavlng ostublislieil itself on u. solid foundation during the period of stress, through whlcli we are passing, will be in a position to develop, conservative- ly perhaps, but none the less substan~ tially during the years immediately following the war. It is presupposed that no serious alterationpoi iIs.nada’s trade policy, providing as it does reasonable encouragement for Cana- dian manufacturing enterprises, will be made. After the war United States will probably be the leading commer- cial, industrial and financial nation of the world, and to expose Canadian industries to the attacks of the high~ ly specialized industries of our great neighbor under terms less advanta- geous to Canada than those we en- -joy to-day is hardly to be expected. LINCDLN AND i.l.0Y_D' GEORGE Years ago protectionist newspapers began to print what was said to have b of Lincoln's “lf an een a phrase , American buys $50 worth of English steel, America has the steel and Eng- land the $50, but if he buys of an American, America has the steel and the $50, too." The quotation passed as genuine, and it hsrmonises with some references to Protection in the edition of Lincoln's writings prepared by his son. - But Free Trade critics lsat year began s seerchlight campaign, and the expressions quoted cannot be found in Lincoln's papers. lt appears that the precise words were uttered in a speech as a reflection of Lincoln's teaching. and not ss s literal quota- tion any more than the oratoriosl burst in Daniel Websters famous speech is to be taken' ss the literal text of John Adams. ‘ Yet here is s quotation which may console Protsctionisis for- the loss of the Lincoln phrase. Nearly Ievsntyi years after Psel's experiment with Free Trade, David Lloyd-George said "if pi-oilts ot our manufacturers are tqe high in s`ome csess. that eairhe reetilsd, but st the worst it is not so grsvs an evil as the sending ol orders to neutral' countries wheivby so do- OWII eonntry and reap none the ri-esta which -'linglith ina 'warner mais -1 among Englishmen, ` while ami-loess. siiseetac te this coaatrn" i ' ri1t"su.°ur 'runes a ma 'rn- vsilingietssnd .\ olive s iv., lil, , ' - ,'f-~.»* _ /.,_.,..»-‘ _ » '~ ..1` ‘ .
