WOEDS OF WISDOM tO MY PEOPLE— 9 When a demand arises for an article, and if the sujjpJy should not be quite equal to the demand, it cre-ates-a scarcity, consequently higher prices. English ideas iaad customs save been introduced into the Orient, with tie world's increasing population, has caused an extra demand for all kinds of food, etc., and as the producing area has not increased correspondingly, it at once reflects on the producing ootmitries, and raises prices. tireat Britain fs trie _ only free trade country of any importance in the world. In Great Britain, only a few weeks ago,;,a Commies-ion 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 cent, during the last 25 years, wages ■had only inoeased 15 per cent, for the eaime period, so it is obvious taxing the land wili not reduoejhe cost of living, nor increase the workers' •ages, and the only remedy for Great flntara is Protection. The Orient has, and is erecting, huge industries equipped with modern machinery, worked, and to be worked with Asiatic laboiir. The question •suggests itself to niy people— how can ariy English-speaking 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 i? absolutely <Jne tax on'the land an:l free trade. It is apparent it would not lesesn the cost of production, but reduce wages ito cope with Asiatic Labour, agumented with modern machinery. There as still hope, as J am credibly informed the success of the Single Tax policy wild depend upon the world adopting it.. This ought to ensure safety for a time. v During my varied experience T found that quack recipes were harmful to ' those with imaginary ailments, but they have the option of bceoming well ahd remaining here if they will follow my advice.
