CANADIAN TRADE
STRANGLED BY FISCAL POLICY MR MACKENZIE KING’S VIEWS. WINNIPEG, January 12. Declaring that the Government of Canada’s fiscal policy is so economically nationalistic that it is strangling trade, Mr Mackenzie King told the ’ Canadian Club that economic imperialism was equally wrong. “ What the country needs,” he said, “is a ridance of the war mentality, which finds no motive for trade except strife.” He was in favour of frank, businesslike agreements. “Mr Bennett is making much of the wheat quota proposal. If it is so sound why did he oppose it at the last Imperial Conference?” The quota would have to be considered on its merits at Ottawa in June on the resumption of the conference, Mr King added.
