ed goods and articles solely used as
raw materials in industries. manufac-
tured foodstuffs and raw food stuffs.
All parts of the British Empire and
it's allies would pay the minimum du-
ties, friendly neutrals which allow the
Kingdom the most favored treatment,
would pay twice as much; other neu-
trails, giving preferences to other pow
ers and including neutrals which might
be swung into the Teutonic CONNER
cial system would pay still greater
sur-tax, and all enemy" countries
would pay the maximum duties run
ming up as high as 80 per cent.
Roughly, it is estimated in the report
that this change from free trade to
protection would make q yearly reve-
nue. of about $4,000, 900. British trade
domination would be furthered under
the chambers plan for a reorganiza-
ton Of the consular service. anti-dump-
ing laws, the formation Of a ministry
