Andrew Carnegie Comes Out
For Tariff Revision
SAYS PROTECTION NOT NEEDED
Iron Master, in Notable Article in
December Issue of Magazine,
Will Declare That Duties on Manu-
factured Articles Should be Reduc-
ed or Altogether Abolished, and
That Only the Luxuries Used by
the Rich Should Bear Duty.

New York, Special.-A notable ar
ticle from Andrew Carnegie, dealing
with the tariff, will appear in the
Forthcoming December number of
The Century Magazine, in which the
IRON master takes the position that
Infant Industries no longer need
protection; that the steel and other
industries have now grown beyond
the need of tariff protection; that
duties on luxuries used by the rich
should be maintained, but that those
on manufactured articles should be
reduced greatly, or abolished entire
ly when no longer needed.
Mr.. Carnegie 8 article is entitled
My Experience With and Views
Upon the Tariff"
Mr.. Carnegie says:
"We have already become by far
the greatest Of all manufacturing ma
tions. While the tariff as a whole
even today has ceased to be primar-
lily beneficial as a measure Of protec-
ton, it has become Of vast import
ance from the standpoint Of revenue,
and it is to this feature I bespeak the
special attention Of readers of all
parties, for duties upon imports, not
for protection, but for needed reve-
nue., should not become party ques-
ton. Reasonable men Of all parties
may be expected to approve this plan
Of obtaining revenue"
He says: "The American tariffs, in
happy contrast to others, almost ex-
empt the poor and heavily tax the
rich, just as it should, for it is they
who have the ability to pay as re-
quired by the highest economic au-
thority."
Mr.. Carnegie says Of future tariff
legislation:
"The next Congress dealing with
the tariff will probably be inclined at
lirst to reduce duties all around and
perhaps to abolish some, but its first
care should be to maintain present
duties, and even in some cases to
increase them, until all articles used
almost exclusively by the rich, and
this not for protection, but for reve-
nue., not drawn from the workers but
from the rich. That is the first and
prime duty of Congress.
Its second duty is to reduce du-
ties greatly upon manufactured ar
ticles and to abolish entirely those no
longer needed.

Mayor Tom L Johnston Goes
Into Bankruptcy
HE WAS ONCE VERY WEALTHY
Mayor Of Cleveland, For Years
Credited With Possessing = Large
Fortune, Announces That He Has
Lost Everything and Will Be Com
PEELED to Move Into Smaller and
Less Expensive Quarters.

Cleveland, O., Special-Mayor Tom
l.. johnson, who for years has been
accredited with possessing a very
large fortune announced that he
had lost everything and would be
compelled to give up his beautiful
home on Euclid avenue and move in
to smaller and less expensive quar-
ters. The mayor also stated that he
would give up his automobiles and
other luxuries, as he could no longer
afford to keep them. His fortune
was wrecked, the mayor declared, by
his devotion to affairs of the estate
of his dead brother, Albert, who was
heavily interested in traction prop
erty in the East.
After Albert's death a question
was put up to him whether he should
resign his Office as mayor and take
up the management Of Albert's es-
tate.
~ decided that would not. I had
entered the fight in this city with
certain ideals before me. I wanted
to fight privilege and special interest,
and had already decided to give up
working for dollars. So concluded
to stay right here and do what I
could to help my brothers. children
at long istance.
"Why did / choose the course I
didH I'll tell you. l wanted happi-
ness and nothing else when closed
up my business affairs and took up
civic activity.
"And I've been happy, too.
"1'm going to be happy yet, too.
We may have to go back to a cot
tager but that's the way we started,
and we can look upon life just as
Joyfully there as we did in the big
house on Euclid avenue. .
"They tell me my enemies are
planning to bring financial trouble
upon me. I've been expecting it.
My enemies are cauable of doing
that. One may expect nothing else
from special privilege. Let them
make any sort of attack upon me
that they choose. I'll never give up
and they'll always find me at the
front.
"If had been a coward-if I had
run away fro mthis fight for the peo-
pie of Cleveland-I could have saved
my fortune and built it up. But I
had chosen my course. I haven't
been laboring as mayor with the ex-
pectation of being rewarded by the
gratitude Of the people One cannot
count on that. It's pleasure In doing
work that l like that has kept me
in the fight.
