Many problems awaited the ap plication of this policy, prominent among them tim relations with Kratue and unemployment.

When he be came convinced that u protective tariif would be a remedy for un employment the country was alMiif loudly for a remedy he reiernd the question to the coun try, because Mr. Bonur Law had I roiuiMd the electors that there would ' tju no1 chaiigy ot linaiicial policy. - -x-:.: - "s ; .
