drain foreign countries of their money

II has been shown that without our
big sales we should be very badly

TURNING FROM FREE TRADE.
Drift Of Sentiment in England Clearly
Toward Protection.

The British Liberals, although elect
ed on a free trade platform, have
taken the first step towards protection
in the new patent law, which requires
the manufacture OF the patented
article in Britain. IL the reasonable re-
quirements of the public so demand.
on pain of the forfeiture of the patent.
This will affect American trade to a
considerable extent, as numbers OF
American inventors have patented
their inventions in Britain and been
manufacturing their goods in the
United States. Notably is this the
case i'm shoe manufacturing machinery.
in which America leads the world. The
manufacture of the parts has been al
most exclusively done in the United
States. the assembling being the only
process carried on in Britain.
Under the new law any person con-
nected with the shoe trade can de-
mand the establishment within three
years of "a factory in Britain for the
manufacturing of the machinery. The
board of trade hears both sides and
If ii believes a prima facie case has
been established ii refers the matter
to a special court. which investigates
thoroughly and decides whether the
needs of the trade demand the grant
ing of licenses on such terms as the
court may deem reasonable to some
person who will manufacture the arti-
cles in the country. or demands the
revocation of the patent altogether. =
strict Interpretation of this law would
shut out from the United Kingdom
every foreign manufactured product
which could be made and which the
British preferred should be made in
their own country. We have no right
to object to our British cousins adopt
ing protective policy, but 1T would
be more honest to do ii openly instead
of by side wind.
