RECIPROCITY is DEMANDED
Massachusetts Legislature Adopts Me-
mortal to Congress.

Boston, May 3.-Both branches of
the Legislature adopted a resolution
memorializing congress Gin support of
the principle of protective reduction
through reciprocity in all tariff max
ing" The resolution declares:
THAT the policy of opening the
markets of the United States to the
unrestricted competition of the rest
of the world advocated by the presi-
dent in his message and the pending
bill, which is a long step toward the
complete establishment of that policy,
appears to the Legislature to be in
direct contravention of the wishes of
the voters of the United States and
especially of this commonwealth as
expressed in the last election"
It is urged that tariff legislation be
based upon the protective principle,
that a tariff commission be re-estab.
lished and that reasonable opportuni-
ty be given those interested to be
heard before final action is taken.
