THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
Canadians for Reciprocity.
The representatives of the Canadian
Government have been visiting Washing-
ton fort he purpose of securing closer com-
mercial relations with the United States.
It has been suggested that a commission
consisting of two Americans and two Cana-
dians should be appointed to consider the
general subject of reciprocity, and report
to their respective governments if a com-
mercial treaty be possible.
Sir Richard Cartwright, the Canadian
Minister of Trade and Commerce, made
the following remarks relative to the fore-
going, which should meet with a sympa-
thetic response from this country:
"We Canadians believe that our trade
should flow through natural channels and
this natural channel inclines to this coun-
try. If we cannot trade with America we
shall be compelled to trade with Great
Britain, and once these intimate relations
are established with the mother country it
will be difficult to break them. The effect
of Canadian competition can only be felt
immediately along your northern border,
while on the other hand the manufacturers
of the United States will secure a greatly
enlarged market. I do not believe that
the effect of Canadian competition is felt
to any extent except along the northern
fringe of your northernmost States. The
American manufacturer has nothing to
fear; he has everything to gain by such an
arrangement as we propose."

THE GRAPHOPHONE
Is the only instrument for which such a claim can be truthfully
made.
It is the most fascinating and wonderful development of
modern mechanical art, yet so simple a child can use and appreciate it.
Its repertoire is unending. Music, song and story come with equal
perfection from it. Classic, descriptive, popular music—anything
and everything in the realm of sound. Prices within the reach of
everybody, ALL MUSIC DEALERS SHOULD HANDLE IT!
