Praise for Tariff Bill.
Prasing the new tariff bill. the
president asserted that private con-
troll had shown its sinister face on
every hand in America, had shown 1t
for a long time, and some times very
brazcnly in the trusts and in the vir-
tual domination of credit by small
groups of men," He said that high
prices did not spring directly from the
tariff, but out of the suppression Of
competition which flourished more
easily under the protection of high
tariff. He declared that the panic
which opponents of the new bill pre-
dicted, had not come, and that des-
pite the European war there had been
sufficient time 10 prove the success
of the act.
The trade commission bill and the
Clayton antitrust bill were spoken Of
as designed "to make men in small
way Of business as free to success as
men in a big way, and to kill monop-
oly in the seed" .4e added that
"monopolies are built up by unfair
methods of competition" which would
be eliminated by the new legislation.
Monopoly is to be cut off at the
roots" he declared
IF our party were to be called
upon to name the particular point Of
principle in which it differs from its
opponents most sharply and in when
1t feels itself most definitely sus-
tanned by experience" continued the
president, we should no doubt say
that it was this. THAT we would have
no dealings with monopoly, but re-
ject it altogether; while our oppon-
ents were ready to adopt II into the
realms of law and seek merely to reg
ulate IL and moderate it in its opera
ton. II is our purpose to destroy
monopoly and maintain competition
as the only effectual instrument OF
business liberty
