Kansas City, Jan. 25.-If the coun-
try merchants are to save themselves
from being swept out of existence by
the big mail order houses they must
organize for their own protection, L..
C. Boyle, of Kansas City, former at
torney general of Kansas, said today
in an address before the Southwestern
Lumbermen's association meeting in
annual session.
Mr.. Boyle said: Il am forced to be-
lieve that if the farmer and laborer
but understood the situation Alright
the mail order business would be
short lived. Eliminate the country mer-
chant and the business of distributing
the necessities of life of necessity
centers in the hands of a few great
corporations. The only solution OF the
dilemma then will be state and ma
tional socialism.
'The solution of the problem lies
in close, militant, aggressive or
ganization. The rule of reason was
applied to the Standard Oil company
and this was dc1e to meet the husis
ness exigencies of. that great organi-
zation. If the courts will not apply
the same rule when the little fellow
is concerned. let all the little fellows
get together and make a tremen-
dously big fellow and then he can ap-
ply the rule of reason.

MAJORITY IS SUSTAINED

ON A BASIS OF REVENUE
PROTECTION SHOULD BE FOR
GOTTEN IN DRAWING UP OF
NEW LEGISLATION

Washington, Jan. 25.-The demo-
cratic iron and steel tariff revision bill
was favorably reported to the house
today by Chairman Underwood Of the
ways and means committee. The re-
publican members of the committee
were given the right to file an adj
verse report. The committee had
adopted the bill by strict party vote.
"A survey of the iron and steel in
dustry," says the majority report filed
with the bill, Shows convinctngly that
it has reached a position of such
strength and independence that the
industry does not need the helping
hand OF the government in order to
stand in competition with foreign
countries. The committee feels war
ranted in recommending that the du
ties be placed upon distinctly rev
enue basis"
The report declares that the rates
should be made low enough to per
nit potential competition from inn
ports for the sake of natural and
proper regulation of domestic prices
and concludes:
'Tt is believed that the rates provid-
ed for in this bill are competitive ana
il enacted would effect substarr al
economy to the people greatly dis
proportionate in its advantage to the
small apparent loss of revenue"
Later in the day the seven repu6-
lican members of the committee filed
their report. 1t declared that the sieeI
schedule should not be revised with
out a report from the tariff board and
that the bill was framed without
hearings and was in no way justified
"by the full hearing three years ago
before the committee"
The minority assailed the idea that
the schedule relates almost exclusive
ly to goods manufactured by the Uni
ted States steel corporation. sit is
ell known" says the report, that this
corporation can produce iron and
steel articles more cheaply than any
ether of the numerous independent
companies, but it does not produce
even 50 per cent of the iron and steel
products of the country"
