greater reduction, we could not Sc
cure them because In the Judgment
of our Canadian friends the trade
or industry which they desired to
foster would suffer by a greater re
duction; thus with respect to meats,
we would have been glad to put
them on the free list. Canada OBJ
iected and we obtained the best
figures we could"
The president said the criticism
that reductions had been avoided
purposely on manufactured articles
was wholly unfounded and that
reciprocity agreement between the
United States and Canada must of
necessity relate more to agriculture
products than manufactures.
The suggestion that the opening
of our markets to Canadian whea;
and other cereals" continued the
president, will reduce the price of
land in Ohio, Illinois, Indiana and
Iowa, is refuted by every table of
statistics.
'To let the wheat OF the north
west come down to Minneapolis and
Chicago will steady the price of
wheat. But that it will in the end
substantially reduce the price of
wheat, fixed for the world in Liv-
erpool, no one familiar with condi.
tions will assert.
'It will give to the United States
much greater control of the wheat
market than it has ever had before.
1t will enable its milling plants
to turn Canadian wheat into flour
and send abroad the finished prod |
uct, and will stimulate the sale of
manufactures and other things that
we have to sell to Canada"
The president further asserted that
in removing the artificial barriers
between the northwestern part of
the United States and Canadian |
provinces, the agreement would re-
suit in the bringing over of live
tie to feed on the corn of the
American farmer.
Mr.. Taft said that mo step could |
be taken more in the interest of a
reasonable policy of election that |
the approval of the treaty" and
that insistence on too much protec-
ton would rouse an opposition in
this country that will know not mod
Grafton"
He said that that was his reason
tlso, for favoring the creation of
"an expert tariff commission or
board"
1--WE have taken up these things
that are involved in a Canadian rec
iprocity treaty because opportunity
declared President Taft in
conclusion. "Now is the accepted
time. She is at the parting of the
ways Shall she be an isolated coun-
try as much separated from us as
if she were across the ocean, or
shall her people and our people
profit by the proximity that our

the trade across the border that

legislature THIS afternoon.
Springfield, H.. Feb. 11.-President
Taft defended the proposed reciproc-
ity agreement with Canada in an
address before the Illinois legisla-
ture here today as logical conclu-
sion of the protection plank in the
last republican national platform"
He defined tine protection theory
as one that should impose a tariff
not exceeding the difference in the
cost of production in this country
and abroad and allowing fair mar.
gin OF profit for the home producer.
We agreed, therefore, that inas-
much as the conditions of production
from the United States and Canada
were substantially the same, the
widest latitude was given Secretary
Knox and the commissioners who
represented the United States in
offering Canada a reduction of du-
ties on goods and products coming
into this country from Canada in
consideration Of the establishment
of the same duty, or freedom from
duty, on similar goods going into
Canada"
The president explained that it
was thought wiser on behalf of
both governments not to make a for.
NAL treaty but to make an agree.
ment in the form of a statute to
be enacted and to go into force on
condition that a similar statute was
passed by the Legislature of the
other country" He said in part:
This form of government makes
it one from which either country
can withdraw at will by simply
changing the statute by new iegis-
lation.
Il am a protectionist. That is,
believe there are certain industries
in this country which need the en-
couraging effect of q tariff upon i'm
ports from foreign countries to en-
able them to pay good wages and
furnish reasonable profit to those
who engage in them. The differ
ence in condition which generally
makes this tariff necessary is the
lower price of labor in the foreign
country as compared with the ~
of labor in our own.
There was a time when leading
republicans thought there was no
danger of having a tariff higher than
necessary to protect any industry.
1t was thought that if the country
was made dependent on manufactur-
ers behind the tariff wall the compe-
tition between the manufacturers
would stimulate the reduction in the
cost of production and thus reduce
he price.
This limitation necessarily took
away any grounds for a tariff be-
tween this country and any country
in which the conditions of production
were substantially the same. The con-
ditions of production and of manu-
facture in the United States and
in Canada are substantially the
same. Wages may differ in one part
OF Canada from another part, just as
wages differ in different states in
this country, but the price paid them
per unit of work is not substantially
less in Canada than in this country.
In other words, the plank in the
platform of the last republican con-
ventiOn, craried to its logical conclu-
sion, would lead 10 substantial free
trade with Canada.
