We admit the Chinese laborer, he at
least spends portion OF his small
earnings here, and he uses American
raw material; II We buy the products
Of his labor, made in China, We do not
get even that much benefit. Prior to
1890, We imported practically all our
tin plate. A republican tariff gave
the American manufacturer the
needed protection, and We built up q
successful tin plate industry, The
democrats cut the duty in 1918. with
the result that we have been import

and now We are getting tin plate from
China. China has the iron, the tin,
the coal, and cheap labor. American
workmen must accept the Chinese
