WILSON LEADS HIS PARTY FOR PR0TEC-
TON TO AMERICAN Institutions,

President Wilson rendered a great
service to the nation by the position
which he took in his message to Con-
Eress in favor Of an adequate protec-
tive tariff for such industries as dye
making, and for a tariff which would
enable this government to protect it.
self by retaliation against any other
Government which might make ad-
verse tariff regulations against us.
In taking this stand President Will
son completely changed the historic
position Of the Democratic party in
favor Of free trade or tariff for
revenue only, for he spoke not a
single word in behalf of a revenue
from this proposed protective tariff,
but he favored a tariff along the line
of his argument wholly for the pro-
lection of certain industries of this
country to insure their upbuilding
and safe guarding for the benefit of
America.
President Wilson has now made it
possible for every Democrat in Am
erica who believes in protection to
advocate a protective tariff without
going contrary to his own party. He
has made 1t possible for the whole
tariff question to be discussed from
the economic standpoint Of it's rela-
ton to the welfare of the country,
and without regard to party politics
This is a position which the Manu-
facturers Record has advocated for
more than third of century. Its
adoption by President Wilson will
unshackle the thought of millions of
people who believe in a protective
tariff, but have been afraid to say
so by reason Of the power of their
party politics.
1t is a great thing to have brok-
on down this mental subserviency to
party dictates and to have opened the
way for broad national discussion
Of the tariff question from the econ
omic standpoint rather than from
that of political. In this President
Wilson has taken a stand which will
change large part of the discussion
of the tariff, which will make the
advocacy of a protective tariff a
feasible proposition for every DEM
ocrat who at heart believes in pro-
lection, and in this way he will have
rendered a great service in the broad
ening of American thought on this.
one Of the most important questions
which has faced us in the past, and
which will continue to grow in its
far-reaChing effect. AS piece of
politics 1t was also a shrewd move.
for It will enable the Democrats to
claim that their party is no longer
wedd I'd to free trade since President
Wilson is an open advocate Of a
strictly protective tariff; and If a
protectionist as to a few industries,
why not as to Manufacturer
