PLAIN WORDS ON BIG
QUESTIONS

Extracts from interview of Os-
car w. Underwood, reported IN
Staff Correspondence of the
Nez0 York World, Editorial
Section, December 3, 1917
There has been no attempt ON
the part of the manufacturers to
give labor its share of the benefits
derived from the tariff They
have kept all the profits"
TO protect profits is TO protect
inethciency and to stranguIafc
rather than to develop industry"
L prefer to lower the tariff wall
by taking bricks off the top of the
wall rather than by dynamiting
the structure at the bottom"
The people have lost faith IN
the Republican party because IL
has not kept faith with them"
If it (the Sherman Act) is en-
forced as a criminal statute it is
an efficient instrument for pre-
venting and furnishing monopoly
and restraint of trade"
