tariff commissions in the pa. II may
change it's attitude in face Of the
growing demand for a scientific in
v%estigation of the tarin question.
President Roosevelt favors the perma-
nent tariff commission and Mr.. Taft
has approved II. The plan would not
rob congress of its powers, but the
commission, IL properly constituted,
would lay the facts and conclusions
before congress. The tariff would
have constant watch and check instead
Of only hurried consideration follow
ing a political campaign involving the
tariff issue.
On the other hand, 1t is recognized
that a commission not wisely chosen
and organized would be a hindrance
rather than a help. The people ex-
pect congress to deal with the tariff
at the special session in March and
while the commission plan is at
tractive, 1t must, IL adopted. go with
revision and not be an excuse for de-
laying revision.

Tg TARIFF COMMISSION PLAN.

Considerable discussion has already
been aroused over the National Tariff
commission convention called to meet
at indianapolis on February 16 to Is,
the standpatters and the enthusiastic
re~visionists being naturally divided
upon the merits of a commission to
give It's continued attention to tariff
matters, suggesting changes from time
to time.
The Indianapolis convention has
been called by a number OF CONNER
cial organizations, headed by the Ma
tional Association Of Manufacturers,
and governors, mayors and CONNER
cial bodies have been invited to send
delegates. The purpose of the conven-
ton is to obtain a decided expression
of public opinion on the question
which congress will be asked to legis-
late upon at this session, namely, the
creation of a permanent, n%on-parti-
san, semi judicial tariff commission,
which shall collect. collate and study
industrial and commercial facts in this
and other countries pertinent to the
tariff question for the information and
use of ngre and the executive"
One OF the strongest arguments in
favor of the purpose of the convention
is the pronounced opposition to it by
the American Protective Tariff league,
the organization of the standpatters.
The league, at its annual meeting a
few days ago. passed resolutions de-
claring unalterable opposition to a
permanent tariff commission. II fur
Their declared that it has every conf
denoe in the ways and means commit
tee OF congress, and that the league
itself stands ready to give to commit
tees and to congress every support in
its power by way OF the most complete
information as to the needs of Ameri.
can industries and the needs of Ameri.
can labor"
This resolution of the American Pro
t~ective Tarin league will fall far short
OF satisfying friends Of tariff revision
who have not so much confidence in
the ways and means committee or in
the kind of information furnished b!
a league admittedly hostile TO an,
form OF tarin revision. While con.

TIE STATES AND TREATY RIGHTS

THE STATES AND TREATY RIGHTS,
California seems to be slower even
than the southern commemorative to
draw the distinction between federal
rights and state rights and to admit
that in some really vital matters the
federal government has powers which
it may exercise properly to the over
throw of state enactments. Califor-
MAS attitude toward Japanese who
have settled in that state, under treaty
provisions, furnishes an illustrating
case In point.
In March of last year the San Fran
cisco School board attracted national
and international attention by adopt
ing a regulation for separate, or Jim
Grow" schools for Japanese children.
The action clearly violated the treaty
between Japan and the United States
and the authorities at Washington had
much dificulty in securing q rescind-
ing of the school boards action. This
was effected. however, before the test
case could be passed upon by the SUI
preme court of the United States.
Now the California legislature has
started all the troubles afresh by a
! bill against alien ownership of prop
erty In the state. The bill is aimed
directly at the Japanese, and the Japa-
nese government has accepted 1t As a
move by the federal government, fail
ing to distinguish between the laws of
an individual state and the laws
passed by congress. President Roose-
welt has appealed to the legislature Of
California not to pass the pending
measure, explaining that the enact
ment Of such a law would seriously
embarrass the federal government in
its treaty relations with Japan.
The authorities at Washington are
apparently wasting time in an effort
to persuade the California legislature
to respect national treaties and they
are not occupying a very digni1ed at
titude in begging a state legislature
to give due consideration to our treaty
obligations. The better plan would be
the early enactment by congress of a
law requiring states to respect treaty
rights OF citizens of foreign powers.
A long series OF decisions by the su-
preme court of the United States hold
against the right OF a state to nullify
treaty obligations entered into by the
federal government, although there is
no specific law on the subject. The
soone we have such specific enact
ment the quicker the United States
will be relieved of the present embar-
rassment.
