(Adequate Protection) The Canadian manufacturer of such goods as Japan exports is well safe- guarded in the new agreement The whole subject of currency dump duties has become too complicated for the layman, but I saw some figures the other day on typical shipments, which showed that the Canadian manufacturer still has a protection of about 100 per cent against Japanese goods which compete with him All other Japanese goods are now to come Liberal majority in the Commons is such that there will only be an aca- demic interest in the actual voting. but the debate will afford an oppor- tunity for one of those fulldress de- bates on trade and tariff which the House seems to love; and with such a controversial matter as reciprocity involved, there shouldvbe no lack of argument. The merits of the agreeâ€" ment, however, will not be attacked by either major party, presumably, since Mr. Bennett was responsible for all the early negotiations and Mr. Mackenzie King: completed it. They are equally responsible for its Weak- nesses and equally to be credited for its achievements. Probably Mr. Ben- nett would have {fiven less and secur- ed less: but at least his off-er was the foundation for what followed. (New Trade Prospects) The New Year ushered in a happier trade relationship with Japan. Can- ada trades with eighty or a hundred countries in the world, but the United States ranks first or second as a customer, and Japan ranges between third place and sixth, so that to com- plete arrangements with United States and Japan all in a few weeks affects a very large per centage of our external trade. Japan in recent years has offered a market for from $16,000.000 to S42,0(‘).000 of Canadian produce. and with a growing popula- tion there is no reason to suppose that the limit has been reached. For an industrial country such as Japan has recently become, it probably pays her best to process raw products into manufactured articles, and trade them abroad for foods and raw materials. British Columbia sits across the Pacific from Japan, as conveniently situated as any non-Asiatic country in the world. an dthere appears to be every possibility of a flowing Canaâ€" dian trade westward in wheat and flour, newsprint. lumber, fish, alum- inum, nickel, cattle hides. felt manu- facturers, wood pulp, lead, scrap iron, zinc, asbestos and similar commodâ€" itiesâ€"a mixture of primary products, metals and full}r processed articles. The steady growth of such a trade will benefit all the economic areas of Canada. (One of Highlights) The ratification of the United States trade agreement will be one of the highlights of the session. The The nationalization of the Bank of want 5 Canada is one of the definite promises Cour of the present government: that will iNext 1 not take a very lengthy bill: but the f’bvrassic whole question of private versus public ownership will have to be threshed out thoroughly first.‘ Ihel Liberals are not at one in this matâ€" ter: a few of them are fearful that. to nationalize the Central Bank will‘ bring the credit of the country under political control, Is it worse, these critics ask. to have the credit of the country dominated by a small group of business and financial heads: or by an even smaller group of demagogs? Would the dethronement of St. amcs street as credit dictator (if it really! is so) and the establishment there of a control by a political leader not be like jumpirmr outof the frying pan into the fire? These question will be asked. At the same time there is al powerful feeling aman the masses of the Liberals :nd elsewhere, ,that at all costs the control of credit, cur- rency and finance must be vested in the people, or in the people’s repre- sentatives. ernment has been fully occupied since it came into office with other matters, and it is only now that Mr. Mac- kenzie King has been able to turn his attention toward a legislative pro- gram. Normally the first session after a general election is both short and light; but these are abnormal days, and important matters are to be dealt with. The coming session Will hardly compete with either of the last two in number and signif- icance of bills; but a great deal of the legislation of last session was of doubtful value; it has still to be apâ€" praised by the courts. The Liberals made a number of pledges in their election campaigns and one or’two more in the correspondence accom- panying- the United States trade agreement.
