Advertising and Circulation Telephone ...93 Editor and Reporters Telephone ..r.86 Member of Audit Bureau of Circulations Tuesday, October 31, 1930 AN AMERICAN VIEW ON TARIFF , (Editorial Current Saturday Evgpjhg PsjstJ -! y4 The British are finding that a frejtde policy is a difficult one to maintain in the face of world-wide conditions today. It may be that out of the fury and excitement caused by the protectionist wing of the Conservative Party will come a reversion to a modified form of protection, in place of the traditional policy of the open door. Here in America, however, where our politicians seem to have entered into competition with the builders of skyscrapers, we are beginning to realize that the continual raising of tariff walls tends to create conditions that are far from ideal also. The first effect of the tariff revision which was put over during the last session of Congress has been to stir the Canadian Parliament into retaliatory measures That the Hawley-Smoot Tariff Bill played its part irt the defeat of the Liberal Party in the recent Dominion electfftri1 ( goes without saying, and it could be expected that the new government, firm in its adherence to the policy of high pn tection, would strike back aggressively. The first schedule of tariff chances nut. intn effWr hv the Dominion Government on September 17 cannot fail to best customer, and the raising of duties on so many of the lines which figure prominently in our trade with that country will inevitably cut into our volume. Nor is there arty surety tha.t the nev; schedule is the last word that we shall hear from Ottawa in this matter. It is withlrt the power of the Canadian Government to put additional Changes into effect by order-in-council, an elastic feature of the Canadian constitution which gives them a great advantage in any give-and-take tariff battle. It may be, also, that out of the conference of Dominion premiers at London will be evolved some more general and, substantial form of Imperial preference which will serve to make the Canadian markets still harder to reach with American goods. Although the new schedule was put into effect with all the official amenities which serve to mask its real purpose, we must accept the action of the Canadian Government as a measure of retaliation for the clauses in the Hawley-Smoot Bill which affected the Dominion adversely. Tariff raising is a game at which two can play. , It is unfortunate that the even tenor of our trade relations should suffer this interruption. Trade between the two countries has been so mutually advantageous that it will continue active no matter what obstacles may be erected by the politicals. We are inclined to believe that even a continued tariff war would fail to cut too seriously into the volume of trade which flows back and forth, logically and inevitably, across the border. That our tariff sparring will serve, however, to create a less cordial feeling and to ruffle sentiment on both sides of the line into acrimonious exchanges is the more serious danger.

We barricaded the two doors, and three men held each other, while the frightened wife, youngsters. grandmother and servants scream ed and called on God to deliver them. Then the window blew in and we barricaded that. Next the back veranda fell and a four-foot square Mock of concrete smashed one of the doors, but remained there, blocking the entrance.
