FREE TRADE
WITH CANADA
James ]. Hall Advocates Full
Reciprocity
PROTECTION, HE SAYS
Furnishes Only the Consumer-No Diff
ference Here and There in Wages.
Paper Read in New York to
the Canadian Society.

New York, Dec. l0-James j. Hill,
president OF the Great Northern railway,
made, Thursday night, strong writ
ten plea for reciprocity with Canada
at the fourteenth annual dinner Of the
Canadian society at Delmonico's. Mr.
Hill is in the West at present, and his
speech was read BY Dr. George David
Stewart, formerly president of the So
ciety. Both nations, he said, demand
closer and more definite commercial
compact, and he thought that if con-
sensus Of opinion could be taken, recp-
rocity would have a majority on both
sides of the line. Canada, he pointed
out, is to-day the third best customer
Of the United States, and our imports
from and exports to the Dominion have
increased within the last ten years l3l
per cent. Our present import duty, he
said, was not protection, but punish
ment OF the consumer. The opportunity
for establishing free trade between
the two countries, he declared, was new
er better, and he advised that it be
seized before it was too late. The din
ner was one OF the most successful in
the history Of the society. There were
about 800 members, and their guests in
cluded A. Mitchell Lane, the British
charge d'aifaires at Washington, who
represented the British ambassador,
John NJ. Gibson, lieutenant governor Of
Ontario, and John Foord, secretary Of
the American Asiatic associations.
