For ex- ample, if the Canadian tariff against the States .verged 30 per cent. by this scheme it would be 40 per cent, Since the proposal failed of agree- gent, the British •.. government has changed and a ministry, predominant- ly Conservative, is in office, over. there. 1Moreoyer, it has steered Great Britain from the traditional path of free 'trade.'
