Duties to be Placed on Practi-
caIIy All Goods That Are Not
Deemed Raw Material.
REVENUE AND PROTECTION
Rates TO be From Five 10 Fifteen Per
Ccnt-Brcadstuffs TO
Be Taxed.

a-5Hdon, Dec. 7-The Birmingham
Daily Post tomorrow VIII publish an
article from inspired sources outlining
the tariff reform proposals that are
likely TO be made by the Unionist gov
ernmcnt of the UnionIsts are success
ful at the elections, prefacing it with
the remark that the countrys financial
necessities are much greater than they
were in 1906, when Joseph Chamberlain
started the movement.
FOR GENERAL TARIFF.
The article continues:
1T is proposed to establish a general
tarin. placing duties on practically all
goods that arc not deemed raw mate
rial, with the object, first. OF raising
revenues; second. OF assisting the home
producer against foreign competition;
third, of giving preference TO colonies:
fourth, oil securing better terms from
foreign countries. and fifth, OF mitigat-
ing unemployment by encouraging the
home producer.
The tariff will be OF the simplest
possible form, not protective In the sense
that 1t understood in Germany and
the United States. There is no inten-
ton OF having multifarious rates which
would throw open the door to parlia-
mentary intrigues. She plan favored
Is to allow raw materials duty free
and TO Impose o per cent duty OH
partly manufactured goods. 10 per cent
on articles nearly completed and 10 Der
cent on completely manufactured
goods. There will be no variations In
TINS scale. unless in exceptional cases.
There may possibly he however. a
slightly lower duty in favor of the
colonies and a slightly higher tarirc
against colonies seeking unduly TO pen
alzc British goods.
TO TAN BREADsTUFFs.
Foreign wheat will be liable TO a
duty Of two shillings per quarter
WIN preference to tho colonies but not
the removal OF the whole duty.
Flour will pay n higher rate to en-
courage home grinding. while bacon
and maize will also be excluded from
the frce list. Important raw materials
such as cotton and wool, will enter |
free.
"A tariff framed thus. 1t Is csti-
mated, would produce a revenue of |
from Rl6.o00000 to e20,00O,Ooo. II the
Unionists are returned every possible
effort Will be made to embody the new |
duties in the budget of 1910 or at !
