 It is stated that there will be no open boycott agitated. but that the me- groes will be left to use their own Judgment in the matter of patronizing the cars. The company was strenuous ly against the law and will probably make a test case.

NOT TO BE CHANGED,
Tariff ls "a Safeguard of the Amer
lean Standard of Living.

When American production is so
enormous that after supplying domes-
I.c needs there still remain manufac-
lures to the value of half Il billion dol
lars for export to the markets of the
rest of the world, it must be conceded
that even out and out free trade would
not gain for the consumer any material
reduction in the cost of the products
L@ Purchases. All that Il general tariff
reduction could accomplish would be
the replacing of American labor with
cheap foreign labor.
No longer can the idea of a sweeping
horizontal reduction of the tariff be
seriously entertained. IN broad sense
the tariff is simply an equalizer of la
Dor costs and the safeguard of the
American standard of living. AS such
it has been taken entirely out of the
realm of discussion by the ever in
creasiEg volume of our exports of sur
plus manufactured products.-Provi-
