What Free Trade Is Doing for an East
India city.
Free trade is well illustrated in the
city and in the island Of Singapore.
The latter belongs to Great Britain.
and is an East Indian possession. ac-
qurrri in 1924 The city immcdiia tely
became free port, with neither import
nor export duties.
Trade being thus free. the city Of
Singapore Immediately began a healthy
prosperity. From "A mere collection Of
native huts il has become "A modern city
of civilization. and has over 10000 in
habitants
The imports of Singapore have always
been in excess of the exports. thus en-.
riching the city by profit of from 5 to
SO per cent In 1874 the imports were
$4,000. 600. while the exports were $A,-
800. 900; "A profit of 49,. per cent
For 1875 and 1876 the imports were
10 per cent. more than the exports
that is. there was 10 per cent profit on
the commerce.
Countries that import more than
they export are getting richer by trade
Countries that export more than they
import are losing wealth -growing
poorer.
All imports are paid for by exports
If farmer takes in more in year
than he pays ont he is getting richer.
30 it is with a merchant or manu-
facturer.
The protectionists. who are either
ignorant or dishonest. have said for
fifty years that the United States must
export more than they import or the
balance of trade is against us
The people are rapidly getting their
eyes open and will soon demand as free

tiles. are mad at the prospect of re-
duccd profits through reduction of
tariff taxes.
