SELF-PROTECTION It is being recommended to a committee of Congress that British Columbia lumber should be taJced on entering the United States a sufficient amount to prevent it being used there. The States have a perfect right to take such . action if they so please . So has Canada a right to prevent the export of l&gs, ptllpwTJ0d;of othdP'ravv material to the' United States. We suggest that in self-defense Oanmla stand firm and if this country is to be gradually shoved off the business map we take such steps as shall be found necessary to protect ourselves.
