lanes M. Swank, general manager OF
the American Iron and Steel Association
has lust published his annual report, in
which he first says that the cause OF
the low prices for these products Is due
20 overproduction. which constantly makes
the demand greater than the supply, and
then be goes on to say:
''If IL were not for the expectation OF
lower duties on iron and steel ana on
other manufactured products AT an early
day. the check which low prices, re-
action against bcoms and Tightening
Of the money market have given TO the
building Of new furnaces and rolling mills
and steel works would Justify the theory
that the depression in iron and steel prices
is almost over, as the country's population
and It's need OF iron and steel are con-
stantly growing But the prospect Of
sharper competition in our own markets
with iron and steel manufacturers across
the Atlantic discourages the hope that any
considerable Improvement in prices is
possible IN the near future"
Here is very great Inconsistency. In
the first place. this rabid protectionist
complains that the iron and steel trade
is injured by overproduetion, caused by
protection, and in the next he complains
that prospective lower tariff duties is
the cause. But Il Is unreasonable 10 ex-
pect consistency from a protectionist.
