WOEDS OF WISDOM 10 MY PEOPLE When a demand arises for an article, and. if the supply should not be quit© equal to th© demand, it creates a scarcity, consequently higher prices. English ideas and customs have been introduced into the Orient, and are spreading rapidly; this, along with the world's increasing population, has caused an extra demand for all kinds of food, etc., and as the producing area lias not increased correspondingly, it at once' reflects on the producing countries, and raises prices. Great Britain is the only free trade country of any importance in the world. In Great Britain, only a few days ago, a Commission was appointed to inquire into the reasons why the cost of living had increased. It has been officially stated, while the cost of living had increased 50 per cent, during the last 25 years, wages had only increased 15 per cent, for the saime period, so it is obvious taxing the land will not reduce the cost of living, nor increase the workers' wages, and the only remedy for Great Britain is Protection. He Orient has, and is erecting, huge industries equipped with modern machinery. . worked, and .to- be with Asiatic labour. The question -'suggests itself to".my people^-how oan any English country cope with, this menace unless amply protected to save our industries and wage earners from being brought down to the Asiatic level The Single Tax theory is absolutely one tax on the land and free trade. It is apparent it would not lessen the cost of production, but reduce wage 9 to cope with Asiatic labour, augmented with modern machinery. There is still hope, as I am credibly informed the success of the Single Tax policy will depend upon the world adopting it; this ought to ensure safety for a time. , During my varied experience I found tHat quae* ™™* were harmful to those with imaginary' fcunJSKS, but they have the option of becoming well and remaining here if they will follow my advice. I strongly advise my people, and the imaginary sufferers, to feast upon the well-known recipes, prosperity, and longevity, etc., viz:— Ample protection on things we can produce, and good wages— "CHAMPION FLOUR" and "STANDARD" OATMEAL and ROLLED OATS. I Remain, Always at your service, CHAMPION. P.S.— Follow Canada's example, and reject Single Tax and Free Trade—C.
