HELPING THE COLONIES
BY LOANING CHEAP MONEY. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. Received 26, 1 a.m. London, May 25. Sir Edgar Speyer, speaking at the Liberal Colonial Club, said that by our lending capital 1 per cent, cheaper inside than outside the Empire, Britain was saving the colonies and India at least ten millions a year. Mr. Asquith, who presided, remarked that the ten millions was a far more fruitful form of preference than any later devices for restoring protection whereunder neither the colonics nor the Motherland ever profitted.
