Ottawa, March 26 — The state- ment went is made by certain Canadian statesmen that Canada, during the past years, has made little progress in the development of manufactur- I ing. It is asserted that we are only hewers of wood and drawers of water for the United States. Inference Drawn. The claim is made that we and out raw materials and bring back finished products and by !inference, the youth of the• land is led to be- lieve that to the south lies hope, while in Canada there is nothing but despair—at least until a change of policy takes place. Canada, since 1922, has made more progress than any other coun- try in the world. Our total exports of finished manufactured goods dur- ing tile's period, ;how a greater growth than ever before recorded in a country of equal population. Our exports of manufactured goods per unit of population is more than double that of our southern neigh- bor. The percentage increase of ex- ports of manufactured goods be- tween 1922 and 1927 is much great - e• than that of the United States. Those facts are matched against the political croakers. Let the facts speak. The figures on which the essici tie notes are based are as follow:: Percentage of Manufactured to Total Exports Canada U.

In 1927 we reaehed $19.07 per capita ---- the United States had crawler} op t, `*20.30. The Increase of exports per capita between 1922 and 1027 is not far from the total of the American per capita exports in 1927.Putting the facts another way we have this amazing statement. With 10,000,000 people, Canada in five years, 1922- 1927, increased total exports of manufactured goods by $187,000,- 000 --the ''United States with 120,- 060,000, 12 times the population, in- creased its exports of manufactured goods only a little more than three times as much, or a total increase in this period of ,$500,000,000.
