Yours is a Grave Responsibility! Some day soon you will be called upon by a commercial traveller who ii oin& to do hia beat to sell you some foreign-made goods. To avoid generalizations, and to get down to a typical concrete case, let us suppose you are a grocer, and that the traveller wants to sell you some well advertised line of canned vegetables. Your stock of canned vee-tables will soon need replenishing in any event; you have occasionally had customers enquire for that particular brand, so you would anticipate no difficulty in selling it; and the price quoted you is one that appears Jo offer you a satisfactory margin of profit. What are you going to do 'afaouf it? Before answering that question, just remember please that in succeeding days you will have many other commercial travellers call upon you, trying to sell you foreign-made pickles, foreign-made salad dressings, , foreign-made biscuits, foreign-made cheese and a host of other imported products some under brand names made familiar to your custormts through advertising, and all at prices that give you a chance of incrtmt- ' ing youi margin of profit. So again J ask what are you going to do about it? i Admitting for the sake of argument that you enhance your reputation for enterprise if you are always able to supply your customers with any brand they choose to ask for, is it wise of your customers to be spending their money for foreign-made foods instead of Canadian-made foods9 And if it isn't, is it wise of you to make it easy for them to do so? With a few exceptions, nearly all Canadian-made foods originate on Canadian farms. The more your customers favour Canadian-made foods, the busier Canadian farmers will be producing the materials from which those foods are made. And the busier Canadian farmersare, the better it will be for all other classes, including of course your customers, whose prosperity rises and falls with the prosperity of the farmers. "Quite so," you may say, "but I have to buy a lot of imported merchandise in any event. I have to buy oranges, and lemons, nuts and raisins, tea, coffee, cocoa, spices, and scores of other things. A little more or a little less is not going to make a particle of difference to Canada's prosperity one way or the other." You may think it won't, but just let us look a little more closely at those items you have mentioned. Granted you have to stock oranges, lemons, nuts and raisins all importedin order to give your customers the service they demand of you, does it necessarily follow that just because the other articles are also of foreign origin, there is no room for intelligent discrimination in your purchasing of them? In Canada's interest, is it not better for you to stock tea that has been blended and packaged in Canada, by Canadian labour with Canadian materials, than tea that has been blended and packaged in some other country? Isn't it better to s'tock coffee that has been roasted and ground in Canada, than coffee that comes into this country all ready prepared? And if, when stocking merchandise that is necessarily made out of foreign materials, it's better to stock brands that had been packaged or otherwise prepared in Canada, how much more important it is when stocking merchandise like canned vegetables, that could be made tif as acceptably out of Canadian materials, alwaya to give the preference to the -brand that is produced in Canada throughout? When a customer asks for an imported brand, that you know is no better than perhaps not as good as a Canadian brand of the same thing, at an equal or lower price, what are you going to do about it enfer intoa friendly argument to show her the error of her way, or follow the course of least resistance by giving her what she wants? Let us suppose that all your customers began buying foreign-made foods and that you, with no thought of the consequences, ceased stocking Canadian-made foods in order to cater to the changed demand. And let us further suppose that your competitor across the street begandoing the same thing at the same time for the same reason, and that the movement spread to other towns and cities till it became general right across Canada. Wouldn't the food factories of this country soon have to chase Up? And with their closing, wouldn't our farming industries suffer a severe blow? And. with our farmers in the doldrums wouldn't it be only aahort time before your customers began to buy less, arid to go in debt with you for what little they did buy? So again I ask you what answer are you going to give that commercial 'traveller when he comes in to book your order for a line of imported canned vegetables? It 'a worth a lot of Very careful thought, isn't it? j Mill.-' 1 1 ,y Very sincerely yours Y Minister ot ' Trade and Commerce-
