THE STOREY THE BONDED
WAREHOUSES; TELL.
The Blight the Underwood Tariff Bill
Will Put on Prosperity.

A more plain and convincing object
destruction of tariff protection could
hardly be furnished than that which
the New York Sun of July II presents,
in the form of a statement setting
forth the enormous increase OF I'M
ported merchandise now being held
in bonded warehouses to await the
heavy tariff cuts of the Underwood
bill A year ago, when the certainty
of lower tariff rates was obvious, the
importers had begun to take advan-
tage of the privilege of storing i'll the
bonded warehouses. Goods so stored
pay no duties until they have been
released for consumption. 1t is profit
able to hold them when duties are
sure to be lowered soon. For exam
pie, consignment valued at 100000,
under the present average rate of 50
per cent. including tariff and expenses,
would pay $4,000 in duties If, how
ever, the rate is going to be reduced
to an average of Is per cent in the
course of few months, the importer
will store the invoice i'll bonded
warehouse and save $4,000 by the
he pays for longer storage. The
goods pay the rate of duty in force at
the time they are released for CON
sumption and not the rate in force
at the time of Importation.
On the lst of July. 1912, the imports
in New York bonded warehouses were
valued at $45 100000 A year and fiji
teen days later finds the amount in
creased to more than $7O,OOO,OOO, and
it is estimated that by the time the
new tariff law shall have gone into
effect $lO0,0O0,0O0 of imported goods
will be turned loose from the bonded
warehouses of New York alone The
same process of holding up for lower
tariff rates is going on in all other
ports of entry The total for the
whole country will then be not far
from $l50,0O0000.
But it is to be remembered that this
$l50,OOO,0OO represents foreign valua-
tons. When the tariff and other ex-
penses shall have been added to. the
amount by which equivalent Ameri-
can production is thereby displaced
will reach fully 100000. That much
of goods previously made in the Uni
ted States will have to be deducted
from our REPRODUCTION, and in con
sequence 100000 American wage earn
ers will have lost their jobs
OF course. this is only beginning
of the mischief The free-trade tariff
bill is expected to increase by $780,
100000 year the imports of competi-
tive goods. That means $2OO.000,0O0
of foreign values. but it will mean
$275,0OO.0O0 of American labor and
production displaced 1t is easy to
see. after ascertaining the amount of
imports that are being held up in all
te bonded warehouses. that the pass
age of the pending tariff law is GER
tain to operate as fearful blight upon
American prosperity.

THE BUNKO CATALOGUE.
Many Are Disappointed With Mail

There are limits to the possibilities
of making purchases from no better

COMPETITION FROM ORIENT.
Sort of Thing Which American In
dustry Must Contend With.

Some tall hustling must be done by
Americans if they are to take advan-
tage OF the larger opportunities OF the
owworld's market in accordance with
the suggestions of the Democrats, to
make up for their losses in domestic
commerce under the new tariff bill.
On paper, at last, the situation does
not look altogether promising.
Recently, the two steel mills of
Japan and China, which few years
ago were insignificant in size, but
which now employ more workingmen
than any steel company in the world
excepting the United States Steel Cor
poration, captured big order for the
Philippines, on which American, Ger
man and British producers were bid
ding.
Something of shock was caused
to our own producers They should
realize, however, that the plants in
China and Japan are modern, and that
ceive for months labor just about as
much as the workers in our plants re-
ceive per day.
Rollers are the high grade men in
the Oriental plants, just as they are
hSiS- III NHIId tHC lOIlClS dIC pau
81 to So month; here they are paid
from So to $40 day
This is the sort of thing with which
American industry must contend in
the future. If the Chinese and Japan
csc can get contracts in the Philip
pines in competition with Americans,
thew can get contracts here.
Hosiery and knit goods manufac-
turers admit that they are far more
fearful of Jananese competition than
they are of German competition under
the new tariff bill Germans and
French pay wages much lower than
ours. but the Japanese pay only a
fractional part of the wages we pay.
Over there the employers can get la
Dor by the month for the same wages
that we pay per day
The Japanese are grasping their
world wide opportunities The manu-
facture of cotton products is only in
its infancy in Japan. but as soon as
the new tariff rates go into effect the
Jananese exports will become for
midable.
Americans are noted for their en-
ergv and quicknss, but they will be
compelled to step to quicker tune
than usual when the pending tariff hill
becomes law.--American Economist.
