Washington and Madison on the Tariff.
President Washington declared in his first
message to congress that "the safety and in
terost of the people require that they should
promote such manufactures as tend to render
them independent of others for essentials, par
ticularly for military supplies" This was
tho beginning of the present protective policy
of the government. Washington did not have
the advantage of the latter day training, or
he would have known that he was suggesting
n violation of tho constitution which,
according to Watterson, permits q tariff
"for revenue only" In his second
message Washington said Congress has
repeatedly, and not without success, directed
their attention to the encouragement of man
ufactures The object is of too much conse-
quonce not to insurea continuance of their
efforts in every way that shall appear oligi-
ble" Washington presided over the sohven-
ton that framed the constitution, and yet he
did not know that it was unconstitutional to
encourage manufactures.
The second law enacted in the United States
was a tariff law. 1t was introduced by James
Madison, and so far was it from being for
revenue only" that its objects were announced
in the preamble as follows: Whereas it is
necessary for the support of the government,
for the discharge of the debt of the United
States, and The encouragement aud PROTECTION

wares, and merchandise imported" (See u.
S. Statutes at Large vol. l. page 2iO But,
then, Madison did not understand the con-
stitution as well as does the Washington Post,
although he took some part in its formation.
In 1928, after Mr.. Madison had devoted
forty years to the consideration of questions
arising under the constitution, he made an
elaborate argument in favor of the protec-
tive system, in which ho said: "A further
evidence in support of the constitutional power

self to settle the auestion-is the uniform
and political sanction given in that power
for nearly forty years, with concurrence or
acquiescence of every state government
throughout the same period, and, it may be
added, through all the vicis5itudes of party
which marked that period" Mr., Madison
maintained in the above that congress could
protect American industries under the
power to regulate commerce with foreign
nations, as we'll as under tho power
to lay duties and imposts to pro-
vide for the general welfare of the
United States. Congress may lay an en-
barge on all importations Whatever or on
the products of any particular nation. A
revenue tariff now affords ample protection,
but if it did not tariff for protection would
be Just as constitutional as the one enacted
for that avowed purpose at the instance of
Madison. and approved by President Wash
