OF America will give more than n

cents per bushel was charged on
wheat. and n duty Of 20 per cent ad

This arrangement contained two
vicious evils. One was the adoption
Of the policy Of FREQ trade and tho
other WAS tho adoption Of Z rlan

country To determine whsthsr the

SO long aB Canada wanted 10 ship
