V-THE TARIFF OF 1924.

Clay portrayed the country in the throes
OF the deepest depression; factories idle;
industries crumbling; men unemployed:
people hungry-these were the familiar
essentials. Daniel Webster drew the
answering picture. He had not seen in
the situation the things Clay had painted.
he saw labor never rewarded with more
certain success; the rewards OF effort
might have been greater, but certainly
they had never been more lasting On
the whole. times were not so bad. Look
ing at the records OF the importation OF
tea. he found that never was there
moro Of 1t brought into the coun-
try. And tea, he said was only a drink
Of good times. In this particular he was
like Nelson w. Aldrich. the present chair
man OF the Senate Finance Committee
only Mr.. Aldrich takes the apple as his
basis. He was once a grocery clerk, and
with that keen perception that has made
him the leader Of all the leaders or the
Senate. ne saw that when the laboring
man ate apples regularly times were good
with him; while a falling of in his de-
mand for this kind Of fruit spelled a
corresponding decrease in income.
The opponents Of protection found much
consolation in the action Of the Boston
Manufacturing Company, which owned
the big cotton mill at Waltham- This
mill had survived free trade unshaken.
and with some improvements in ma
chinery its employees had made, II was
able to operate with profit that showed
an average annual dividend Of nearly
20 per cent. It did not join in the pro-
lection propaganda The duty imposed
on coarse cotton goods by the act Of
1916 was practically a duty Of 50 per
cent. But the English discovered that
by mixing 10 per cent OF linen In their
cotton goods they could get them through
the custom-hOuses at the linen rate-l5

per cent Even this did not deter the
Boston company from remaining salts
fed with the old conditions.
In making his speech on the iron sched-
ule Daniel Webster preserved for future
generations some idea Of transportation
condition IN those days. He said that
the rate on iron from Sweden 10 Phila-
delphia was IS per ton, and that s. was
required TO pay the freight on q ton OF
iron for a fifty-mile haul on land. He.
therefore, concluded that 10 al intents
and purposes Stockholm was nearer 10
Philadelphia than New York. so far as
shipping rates were concerned
New England rum and Kentucky
whisky joined hands in the protective
tariff legislation OF 1S24 The balanee-of-
trade argument was heard for the first
time while this legislation was being
considered. and also the argument that
we must have high tariff because Of
the difference in wages here and abroad.
That the bin was not defeated on its
passage to the third reading on the SEN
ate side was due 10 the two Tennessee
Senators. Andrew Jackson and John
Henry Eaton. The final vote IN the
House was so close that sick members
were carried INTO tne cAaNtptr on cOucncS
in order that their votes could be counted.
IN these latter days men would pair OF
under such circumstances. but the legis-
lative pair seems not 70 have been in
vented in 1924.
The act Of 1894 apparently gave very
general satisfaction. The press Of the
country appears 70 have acQuiesced in it,
Protection was for the second time put IL
the saddle. and the country continued on
its forward march Of progress. The idea
at that time seems 10 have been a pro-
lection that would lead 20 ultimate free
trade; a protection that would rear the
infant industry and then allow It 70
fight out its own existence. But many
opposed even this sort OF protection, TAX
ing the ground that industry, like water.
seeks its natural level; that to teach in
dustry TO lean on the government for the
counterpart OF a bounty was 10 induce
a spindling growth like the forest pro-
tected pine rather than the sturdy. storm
resisting oak that grows in the open and
gains its firm hold in the ground by rea-

FROM WOMAPS
POINT OF VIEW

Were II not for a shrewd suspicion that
the young woman who has asked FOR a
divorce on constitutional grounds has hit
upon clever means Of earning money
and achieving notoriety 7 would PITY her
from the bottom OF my heart-but not
because she is a self-styled slave. She
has the inestimable privilege OF mother
hood. and By her own confession has no
ordinary grounds upon which to estab-
lish claim for legal freedom. Her hus-
bands crime is his inae;iity 10 earn
money In amounts 10 satisfy her
The calm manner In which she bares
her daily life is little short Of brutal but
because It is unusual the story has a
high market value. 7 almost suspect
that Il Is a part Of a deep-laid plan 10
Increase the family income-for the Sal-s
Of women in general I hope It IS. Oh. I
know that living on SIS weeJ, is mis-
erable. and that inartIstic surroundings
are not pleasant. but the woman chose
her lot and should be brave enouob 70
bear the consequences. The care OF a
four-room fat Is not the heaviest burden
ever laid upon feminine shoulders. and
making clothes and remaking them ts a
common occupation in more pretentious
homes.
I do not remember OF ever hearing a
mother calculate the price Of her babies
at a tooth each but then have never
seen other than loving mothers. 7 am
sure that 7 know several who make
every garment worn by one. two. and
even three children, and not one OF these
women would attempt 20 leave home
with untidy shoes and unmended gloves
They are not the kind Of women who
would draw unlIind criticism from hus-
bands or be afraid TO meet old accuain-
tances-they have a proper respect for
themselves.
We have been forced TO admit that the
power of money is fearfulIy strong but
this case is a veritable eye-opener. I
wonder what would be the fate of the
unfortunate child should II be turned
over 20 its mothers care with the di-
vorce she seeks? I cannot help a feel
ing that il would fare better with the
father. ! wonder II the mother ever
tried 10 help ill the family purse-she
has said nothing about that.
For years women Of thrifty ideas-and
sensible ones-have been advocating mar
riage on modest weges. and occasionally
a public contribution 10 the cause is sent
in by matron who draws on her own
experience for facts and figures. Mar
riage is none too popular these days. and
men who are not in the possession OF
an easy income are avoiding Il. frankly
I declaring that women demand a great
deal. Some women DO. there is no deny
, ing that fact. but there is a host OF capa-
bic women who are willing 10 90 their
/ best for a good husband and whatever
children heaven sends them. We must
never forget that.

It was not icng after the passage Of the
tariff act Of 1916 until the agitation for an
upward revision Of the customs duties be-
gan. propaganda Of far-reaching In
huence was set on foot, and the protec-
ton advocates hammered away year In
and year out for higher tariff. Societies
sprang I'D everywhere. whose purpose was
10 foster the protection sentiment, New
York and Philadelphia being the inspira-
tional centers OF the agitation. BY 1871
this agitation had grown 20 such volume
that the New York legislature passed a
resolution requiring all its members to
appear dressed in clothes which were
made from American cloth The New
York society elected the three ex-Presi-
dents members Of the society. Thomas
Jefferson and James Madison accepted the
election by letter Monroe, then Presi-
dent, appeared in person and deliverd an
address
We are given a glimpse OF the fore
runner Of the American Protective Tariff
League in q speech delivered in the House
by Mr.. Whitman, OF Massachusetts. He
said that the press Of the country was
being filed with the propaganda. that
this society was circulating the protection
doctrines so thoroughly that the people
were being deluded into believing them.
In his climax he asked: IF they can do
this in the gristle, what Will they do IN
the bone?'
