THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
EMPIRE FREE TRADE. In his'" advocacy of Empire free trade, Lord. Melchett talks of “the urgency of over-industrialised Britain balancing with the over-agriculturalis-ed other, units of the Empire.’’ The very: description of the Dominions as “ovey-agreulturalised” might be used as an argument against- his policy of Empire free trade. Most of the Dominions are aware of the disprcpor- - onute weight placed in their internal economy on primary production. They are out to restore the balance. Not by Empire free trade, which would tend to perpetuate and accentuate the existing disproportion, but rather by encouraging secondary industries within their own borders. —Well i ngton Dom inion.
