time being. so far as Congress was con-
cerned. but IT gave only renewed life TO
the agitation before the country. There
was no effo-t 20 revive the bill IN the
Senate during the second session Of the
Sixteenth Congress, and tariff legislation
in the Seventeenth Congress got no far
ther than a desultory consideration IN the
House in the Committee Of the Whole
But in the meantime the census OF IS2C
had been taken It brought about a re-
appointment that considerably enhanced
the protection strength in the House,
and the high tariff people looked forward
with high hopes 10 the Eighteenth Con
gTess.
The proceedings OF Congress in enact
ing the tariff law Of 1924 was but the
Gettysburg Of the campaign that re-
suited in the recrudescence of the pro-
lection sentiment OF the country. Presi-
dent Monroe had referred TO the matter
in such way in his message 10 Con-
gress that both sides have since been
able to derive comfort from his words
But his attitude was no more uncertain
than that on others. Madison once made
a statement with reference 10 protec-
ton. which the friends or the policy as
serted was in its favor The enemies OF
protection construed & as being against
the policy. The effect of his utterance
was 10 say that he could not be written
down as a free trader. but II did not
go far enough 70 justify his being called
a protectOnist-
An effort was made &c nave incor-
which would put an end 20 the practice
OF extending credit 70 the merchant i'm
porters 10 cover the import duties until
such time as they disposed OF the goods
and got the money for them. This had
been the practice from the beginning. and
IL was urged that the merchant did not
pay the duty. but simply collected ii from
the consumer. This proposition was urged
with much force. but Congress never ef-
fectlvely cut off the credit system until
1872. It Is true that Il had enacted law
10 stop It in 1892. but that law was more
bonored in the breach than in its OBJ
sevance.
The debates on the tariff bill shed
much light on conditions obtaining al
home and abroad at that time There
was no market for American foodstufrs
abroad The protectiOnists asserted that
this was due to the low tariff. But al
the very time England had a law on her
statute books providing that no wheat
should be imported from the United
States 50 long as the price Of wheat was
under 10 shillings CS25O) a busheI. OF
course, the price never reached that
point. and American wheat found no out
let. There was depression everywhere
worse In Europe even than in America.
The termination or the Napoleonic wars
had turned loose great hordes Of unem-
ployed. and while there was no scarcity
OF foodstuffs, there was woeful lack OF
means to purchase them.
The two most gifted orators OF the day
drew rival pictures of the times Henry

BY general consent there were few
changes Of a minor nature made in the
tariff in 1913 but they were merely cor
reCtive Of some palpable errors in the law
Of 1876 stin fight ensued in 1919. Henry
Clay. greatest Of the prOtectiOnists, was
Speaker, and he proceeded to shape up his
committees In favor Of high tariff. a
high tariff bill was brought in and con-
sidered. Il was during the consideration
Of this bin that the first faint reference
to the cOnsttuuOnality OF protection was
made-by Mr.. Whitman. of Massachusetts.
Speaker Clay exercised his privilege as a
MEMBER and delivered a comprehensive
address on the subject. Referring 20 the
constitutional argument. he said that II
had remained for the gentleman from
Massachusetts, to find such an impedi-
ment, an impediment which no other
statesman had ever found. and added
that he would leave "him in undisturbed
possession" Of his discovery. In not one
OF the voluminous American state pa
pers" relating 70 the tariff was this ques-
ti0n Of consututionality raised.
The House passed its protection bill
with little trouble, but when the matter
came up n the Senate that body, by a
majority Of only one vote. decided 10
postpone consideration until the next ses-
sion which was tantamount TO a defeat
Of the measure Harrison Gray Otis was
the Senator who defeated the bill. He
was in favor OF It. and would have so
voted. but his constituents wished him
TO oppose It, and he did so. for which
he was thanked in a public meeting IN
Boston. II was a great blow 10 the Pro-
tectiOnists. but none Of them took the
matter 10 heart so seriously as the Lex
