MEN AND MARKETS
EMPIRE RECIPROCITY A PROPOSAL FOR OTTAWA Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, January 12. , (Received January 13, at 9 a.m.) The suggestion that the British Ministers at the Ottawa Conference should propose an exchange not only of goods but of men against markets is made by the ‘ Morning Post,’ which says; “ If Britain should offer preferential terms for her surplus produce the dominions should be ready to absorb our surplus people. The dominions, however, may reply that they have their own unemployed, but unemployment may result from a lack instead of a surplus of inhabitants. It has been stated that the prosperity of the United States only began when the 20,000,000 mark was passed, and Canada cannot expect prosperity until her population is at least 15,000,000.”. The ‘ Post ’ advocates settlement by communities.
