(United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright).
VANCOUVER, Feb. G
A message from Regina ( states tlie disbelief that increased tariffs as advocated by Conservatives would solve the problems of Canada or eliminate seasonal difficulties with, unemployment, was expressed in an address them ito-iiight U>y the Minister of Finance (Mr Dunning). Experiences in other countries proved conclusively the fallacy of the idea, he said, quoting United States and Australia., the former having three million unemployed and the latter lot) thousand. lie stated; “Canada, with a most moderate tariff, has much less uiic;miployi)ien.t than the United States or Australia. A liberal policy of adjustments up or down depending upon the study of all factors involved. and having regard only to tlie interests of Canadian people is surely the best policy lor the country at the present time. Tlie best proof of the soundness of this policy is the tremendous strides Canada has made in the past eight years.”
