TARIFF INCREASES
EXPORTS

n WRITER in the New York Times
"A under date Of December 5th,
last. said: THAT tariff can effect
exports can be classed as a new dis.
covery in political economy"
1t may be new discovery to the
author Of that statement, but II one
will study the statistics Of our export
trade during the operation Of the Will
son-Gorman low train law which was
in operation from 1894 to 1897, not
ing how they fell OF after the repeal
of the Mckinley protective tariff;
and. again. how they increased with
the enactment Of the Dingley pro-
tective law. and continued to increase
with the passage of the Payne pro-
tective tariff law. which was in op-
GRAFTON from 1909 to 1918; and once
more took downward trend follow
ing the enactment Of the Underwood
low duty law. no further argument
will be needed to prove that under q
protective policy our export trade in
creases, and under a democratic tariff
policy 1t decreases.
The reason y simple enough: The
policy Of free trade, or tariff for
revenue only. means q losing fight for
the American manufacturer to retain
the domestic market. II he cannot
command his homo market, how in
the name Of common sense can We
hope to see him extend his foreisn
markets?
Democratic legislation and argu-
ment of today would indicate the de-
sire of that party to have the Amer
lean manufacturer fabricate goods for |
