In conclusion, I should like to say that the imj>ressionconveyed to me by my visit was that the general conditionsprevailing in Germany far exceeded my expectations. And ifAve can adopt a protective tarifi^ that Avill not increase prices,but prevent the foreigner from under-selling us in our ownmarket, I tliink it aa-ouUI be a step in the light . directiontowards solving the unemployed question.
