RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA
AN AUSTRALIAN DISCUSSION. By Cable—Press Association —Copyright. Melbourne, March 4. A deputation of members of the Chamber of Commerce to Mr. Tudor discussed the questions of reciprocity with Canada and provision for AustralianCanadian trade. ; The president stated that the Postmaster-General might feel complacent over the discontinuance of the subsidised service and, the substitution for it of the poundage carriage of mails as cheaper, but the danger was that New Zealand, which enjoyed reciprocity with Canada, would cut seriously into Australian trade interests. The Federal Government might subsidise not the mail but the cargo service. Mr. Tudor promised to lay the request before the Cabinet, but said he did not expect any action. He pointed out that in 1909 the export trade to Canada was only £BO,OOO. Stealers still came to Sydney, and the Commonwealth was no worse off regarding the service.
