1t Is net generally realized. In the

John Bull has not turned his back COM
pletely on free trade, but the ancient
fiscal system to which he has chung for
generations has been crumbling steadily
since the World War. Ever since the
late Joseph Chamberlain began pleading
for tariff IS years ago, free trade has
faced the certainty of disappearance.
