EMPIRE TRADE
OBJECTS OF CRUSADE. [United Press Association.—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright. ] (Received this day at 9.40 a.m.) LONDON, Dec. 10. The objects of the Empire crusade are stated to ibo firstly to develop the industries and resources of the Empire ,to the fullest extent, making the Empire a single economic unit, removing as far as possible all obstacles to freedom of trade between constituent parts. Secondly, to make resources of Empire both financial and material more available to producers, distributors and consumers in eyery portion of the Empire. Thirdly, to erect such tariffs between the British Empire and foreign countries as were found necessary to realise those ideals. The conveners state they will take no side in historic controversy between free trade and protection. They recognise there are difficulties to be overcome and local interests to Ibe considered, but they believe that means can be found to achieve the object without depriving the Empire of freedom oi trade essential to a rapid and profitable development.
