The Political Come, Friday. June 27 IT IS TO LAUGH No. 15. The Tories are never tired of stating that the Libera) tariff policies are starving our Canadian manufacturers and causing our boys and girls to go to the States for work. In contradlcUori of this rubbish we refer our readers to the monthly bank commercial letters of the Royal Bank of Canada and the Canadian Bank of Commerce for the month of June, 1930. The latter contains a table showing the great Increase ln Canadian manufactures for the years 1925 to 1923 as compared with the world Increase during those years. Just to take a few of the illustrations given; Whereas the world increase in steel manufacture was 14 the Canadian Increase was 81. Automobile manufacture, world, 7, Canada, 66. Paper, world, 9; Canada 31. Artificial silk, world, 103; Canada, 217. Increase in foreign trade, world, 3; Canada 26. The monthly letter continues: "It Is a proven fact that the rate "of Increase ln Canadian production, exceeded, tjiat of the world by a "wide margin In many of the most Important branches or economic life. This advance of Canada was so rapid as to place her among that "small group of nations which enjoys a highly diversified economic "organization." During this period Canada rose to second position ln the world ln automobile manufacture; to third in paper and Aluminum, and to fifth in rubber. ' The! Royal Bank-monthly letter has this to say: ,1 "Tii'rtn'ff,ifhp',nfl. Apvrn vestrs Oanhda has hwn nrndiiplnir wpnlt.h -h . -T-Yir-iinn rii; -.r' y "at a, rate which has permitted the, net export of approximately eight "hundred million dollars of capital. This movement has resulted ln an ' "Increase of nearly one billion dollars ln Canadian Investments abroad, ''and the re-purchase of more than five hundred million dollars' worth "of Canadian securities which were owned in other countries." And yet the Prince Rupert "Empire" says editorially: "You can Hake it from us, however, if you return the Mackenzie "King Government to power you won't have to worry about business "flowing through the Port of Prince Rupert, for there will be no busli ' ness." As the Frenchman says, "It Is to laugh."
