from abroad, duty free. The manufacturers do
not expect much result from silk raising in
America, chiefly because they think silk cannot
be well reeled in this country at any satisfactory
price. A demand for protective duties on the
raw material would also tend to reduce the
margin for manufacturers, should silk growing
