They Don't Like the outlook

Frederick j. Addison, agent for a
New York business house, having re-
turned after three months touring
Great Britain, says in an interview,
that "even in the midst of the greatest
war in history the manufacturers Of
England are taking a keen interest in
the events bearing ON the next national
election in this country. They fear
that a Republican victory will mean
the restoration of a Protective Tariff
law. The lower duties in the new Tar
iii law opened up a much wider market
for the different grades of textile
goods and also offered opportunities
for low priced goods that previously
had been practically prohibited from
the American market by the high du-
ty."
Mr.. Addison says he was informed
that the value of woolens and worsteds
exported from England to this country
n November, 1913, was greater than
for the whole year of 1912. cit was
the United States that saved that part
of industrial England he continued.
with the probability, therefore, that
the Republicans will make the Tariff
the issue in the coming national cam
paign, the Englishmen are not in q
lovial frame of mind when contemplat-
ing what may happen. Dover (N.H.)

COMMENT
BY NEWSPAPERS
rhat $1,000, GOO. oOo Traae Balance

Just fix your mind on that billion
dollar trade balance, but don't go be
hind the returns. The announcement
given out from the Department OF
Commerce is not exactly formulated as
IN the opening sentence; but there IS
a sort of i~nsinuative s-uggestlveness
that the enormous trade balance that
has been piled up against Europe dur
IMP the past ten months is to be re-
garded as a tabElated demonstration OF
the wisely planned and efficiently ap-
piled methods of the present admins
t~ration. He who accepts this theory
must carefully avoid going behind the
returns.
If he goes behind the returns even
for a fve-minute investigation of the
reasons for the record breaking bal
ance in our favor, he will note that
fully two-thirds of the balance must
be accredited to the tremendous draft
upon this country for war supplies.
And if he will study the whole of the
foreign trade figures for the fiscal year
that closes with June carefully enough,
he will not fail to observe that before
the war began our trade with Europe
was in a state of decentralization.
That is to say, under the operative
effect of the Democratic Tariff, imports
had increased with a rush and exports
had fallen far below the average. The
war completely reversed the operative
effect of the new Tariff; the war can
hardly be claimed as one of the fore
seeing trade policies of the Democratic
administration. The war has saved the
country from an era of trade depres-
sion which had already set in, follow.
