Baron von Oppenheimer is persuaded that the proposals recommend years in the past through Mr. Chamberlain are the inevitable final result of the full circulation alike of British fiscal historical past and colonial coverage within the final part century, and that the adoption of these proposals (or of whatever heavily akin to them) is key to the upkeep and protection of the British Empire. those perspectives he has set forth for the good thing about his kinsmen, specifically these in that fab Empire that is reproducing in so impressive a way the industrial background of recent England, and for that reason goals at imitating her colonial improvement also.
