How It Will Work Out,
The ingenious device to stop the
" dumping" of foreign goods into
,Canada, introdueed, into the new
tariff,. as outlined by the Finance
Minister in his recent budget speech,
will prove entirely effective says
an Ottawa correspondent, The -pro-
tectionists have sought to stop the
-dumping of United States goods by
running up our tariff to a great
height. The pnblie resentment at
the dumping practices of the 'United
States manufacturers bas been one
of the strongest influences behind
the high protectionist campaign
which has developed within the last
three years,. Mr. Fijelding undoubt-
edly did the Liberal party and the
policy of the low tariff a great ser-
vice when he devised the checkmate
to dumping which is incorporated in
the new tariff rest:411110W. The
method is simple, equitable and ef-
fective. It provides automatically
