COLONIAL INDUSTRIES.
NEED FOR PROTECTION, Victoria (8.C.), June 3. '•'There is too much subsidising and too little real protection for industry in Canada and Australia,” said Sir John Cecil Davies, C.8.E., managing director of Baldwin’s Limited, and a director of many other British companies, who arrived here by the Aorangi.
“The great need of most of the Dominions,” Sir John added, “is population and industries. But infant industries must be protected with sufficient tariff. For instance, there is tinplate industry in Toronto, and against this business we actually compete successfully with our British plant. “British commerce is built upon the free trade principle, but I am a protectionist, under existing conditions, for Australia and Canada.”
