LORD STANLEY ON TAXATION.
i LONDON,' January 17., ' Lord* Stanley (ex-Postmaster-general), speaking at Preston, , claimed that those •who were advocating Mr Balfour's -policy must not be daunted by the term "Protectionist." "Nothing," he said, "would ' ever induce' me to pledge myself to any single tax of any sort for the purpose of preference .until I know what we are to get in return. On the other hand, nothing would induce me" to pledge myself ito oppose any tax if I thought that upon ithe -imposition of it we should receive as much, if not more, than we had surrendered."
