from the last four years of tariff
studies that have equipped congress to
act intelligently.
There never was so much real tar
iff intelligence in congress as right
now. That is because congress has
been specializing on tariff. 1t knows.
The wool, cotton and steel revisions
which Mr.. Taft vetoed were the most
carefully prepared, thoroughly con-
sidered measures of their kind that
have been passed by any congress In
a generation. The president did them
grave injustice when he denounced
them as makeshifts and patchworks
They represented the years of work
which Dolliver, Cummins, L.aFollette
and other Progressive Republicans
haye done. They were tempered and
adjusted to the necessity of getting as
many votes as possible; and in the
end they were good, practical, pos
sible measures of revision. They
would have benefited the consumer
without running industries. They
would have announced a policy of
reasonableness and fairness in tariff
dealings. They would have reassured
busoness, and put the tariff out of the
way for a considerable time. AS 1t is,
we shall have a year or two more of
agitation and then get just about what
those bills would have given!

Careful Tariff Bill

The most unfortunate thing about
the vetoes of the tariff bills in the
fact that the vetoed measures are
probably, on the whole, better and
safer than those which will finally
become law, says a writer in Success
Magazines" Every one of them rep
resented compromise between the ex-
treme views; compromise which really
represented the modern protectionism
of the Progressive Republicans, which
Is probably the view of more Ameri-
can people than could be mustered in
support of either free trade or Chi
nese-wall exclusiveness. Passed and
signed, these measures would have
been followed by others represent
ing a like policy, and the entire tar
if would have been revised before
adjournment. That revision would
have been no half-baked, ill-consid-
cred makeshift. 1t would have rep
resented the best possible outcome
