MR BALDWIN AND THE EMPIRE.
“ The Empire Free Trader wants me to go to the electorate of this country and; say that we mean to impose taxes on foreign food without saying, what articles'are to be taxed, .what the amount of the tax is. to. be, what effect that tax would have on the cent of living, and what advantages the Dominions are going to offer in exchange for that .tax. I believe the only business like policy, and the only one fair to the electorate, is to. say that we will not raise this issue of food taxes until Sve have inferred with the Dominions and explored the whole problem, and until we can lay a definite plan before the country, and state exactly what taxes, and on what, will be required and exactly what wo are going to get in return,” —Mr Stanley Baldwin,
