COTTON SCHEDULE
Senator Who Set Rates for
Payne Tariff Bill, Calls New
Figures Revolutionary"

Describing the cotton schedule in the
pending tariff bill as half baked and
revolutionary" Senator Lippitt of
Rhode Island, who was the expert re-
sponsible for the cotton rates in the
Payne-Aldrich act, delivered a long and
highly technical argument on the sub
ject in the upper house today. He urged
that instead of differentiated rates
which average 16 per cent cotton IA
brics should be given % per cent less
than the rates in the Dingley act. This
would leave the tariff at about 3O.4 per
cent.
THE height of the duty" he declared,
does not measure the cost of protec-
ton. When protection is needed these
duties are there to protect; when 1t is
not needed, they are as harmless as a
policeman doing on a bench In the
MONDAY sum- Competition in the tex
tile industries was never so keen as
II Is now.
There is no rush on the part of
investors to buy textile stocks. 1 do
not believe that the people of this coun-
try will be satisfied to see any con-
siderable part of these industries trans
ferred to another country It would
be intolerable to our commercial pride"
