RECIPROCAL TRADE.
AN INTERESTING DEBATE. By fable-Press Association-Copyright. Received 7, 9.50 p.m. ~ London, May 7. Mr. Watt, in a paper read before the Colonial Institute, dealing with the Commonwcalth constitution, referring to reciprocal trade, said that John Bull, Junior, had a right to speak freely in the House of John Bull, Senior. Personally he was more than ever convinced of the insecurity of an insular community depending upon foreigners for two-fifths of ! its food. The Dominions were rich to suffocation in productive powers and Providence clearly intended that they should have a partnership in inter-Im-penal trade. Sir Joseph Ward declared that there were difficulties in the way of reciprocal trade. He instanced New Zealand's efforts in 1805 with Canada and South Africa.
