The Tariff and Wages.

There is tendency on the part ~
some employers to assume that the
only way they can counterbalauce
the effect of reduced tariff protection
will be by cutting wages. 1t was
this view that Secretary Redncld
was discussing when he said he
would investigate factories which
cut wages following the enactment
of the new law, and already cases
are appearing in which the services
of the Secretary for that purpose
are likely to prove useful.
One case Of that kind Is that Of
the potters aud their employees The
employers proposed an immediate
cut In wages to make up for the rc.
duction in the tariff. The men re-
sisted aud "A compromise was reached
under which wages will remain
where they are until sufficient time
