Senator KENNA struck the key note
when in his speech he said: "But, Mr..
President, both the internal and external
tax systems will be treated rs . whole.
The tax on tobacco will, l do not doubt,
be reduced or wholly repealed; of this l
shall be glad, and my vote on the subject
will be governed by what deem to be the
fairness of the general revision. Iron and
coal and the wool and other products OF
labor and of care and of enterprise will not
be sacrificed in this revision. They will
stand as other industries Of the country
stand, subject to their fair share IN the
benefits Of whatever the system may be as
revised, and bearing as they ought to bear,
their fair share of the burdens Of the COM
lot"
