A SEVERE BLOW
EFFECT IN CANADA
SHOCK TO GOVERNMENT
(Received 22nd August, 2 p.m.)
OTTAWA, 21st August.
New Zealand's placing of Canadiancars on the general tariff has como as a shock to tho Government recently elected on, among other planks, that of barring New Zealand butter. It is hoped to placate Canadian exporters, particularly in British Columbia, by arranging a new treaty applying wholly to manufactured goods.
The duty change is regarded as a severe blow to manufacturers in Ontario, where the agitation against the New Zealand treaty was particularly strong. Manufacturers in British Columbia have been persistently urging the Government to re-enact tho New Zealand treaty, particularly in regard to lumber, paper, and salmon. The New Zealand development is regarded as lkely to create strong Ontario opposition to this demand.
