while our great Trusts could live under
free trade Just as they do In Great Bril-
tain or China. and would make nearly
as much money by driving nearly every
small firm out Of existence yet under free
trade the small firms could not stand the
prices at which Trusts could make
money; small firms cannot compete with
great combines under free trade and
would go 10 the wall. Moreover. many
Of the great Trusts prefer free trade,
under which they could cut wages and
crush out every strike; IN fact. the great
combines feel assured that workmen
would not dare strike under free trade.
With Socialism. however, we could stand
free trade and even direct taxation. But
until that time the only tart policy for
us wage workers (unless we prefer that
at least 1000 600 bread winners be robbed
OF their jobs) Is protection 10 supply al
least 100000 more Jobs for wage earners

nearly all at work for good wages land

free trade tariff was enacted, and
straightaway ten thousand plants shut

our streets in vain for work, hungry ana

cried for bread

as j. W would say. IL was an insult to
protect our splendid workmen from being
put on a level with cent and p cent
mi-pauper laborers OF other lands.
Nevertheless. those ungodly protection
lists passed the Dingiey Protective tariff
and not only supplied the two million idle
bread winners with employment but fur
nished ten million more Jobs for others
who were tempted to work for better pay
and fewer hours.
