The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1916-1920, 1919-09-20

Only two days ago THE SUN dis
cussed in these columns the news that
already German manufactures were
selling in the London market against
English manufactures In the same
line. We pointed out the danger to
this our own country of such high
costs of production here as would
make free gift Of our markets to any
nation whose people were working
harder than they had ever worked,
thus increasing, not decreasing, their
production.
Yesterday there sailed into this har-
Dor a ship laden with the first Ger
man cargo of glassware and toys since
the war. But the extraordinary eco
nomic and commercial fact about this
cargo Of German toys and glassware
is not its mere arrival. The extraor-
binary fact, the all important fact to
our labor, to our capital, to our Gov
ernment and to our country, is the
terms, according to information in our
possession, under which this German
glassware goes into the hands Of
American consumers. -
After We printed that editorial ar
ticle the other day foretelling how
German hard work, German produc-
ton at top speed and full quantity,
could drive and would drive our own
goods out of our own market if our
cost of production was excessive, the
information came to us of a dealer in
this country with many orders for
glassware on his hands Who had not
been able TO fill them because our
prices were prohib.tive. He searched
this country over for glassware at
prices which would permit him to
handle It, He could find 1t nowhere.
In very despair he turned to the Ger
man market, where he was able to
supply his demand and at prices 40
per cent. lower than had been asked
of him here at home.
So there will be not this one cargo
of glassware and toys; there will be
many hundreds of them. There will
be many fleets heavily laden with
other commodities now produced in
this country. Chemicals or clothes,
glassware or toys, luxuries or neces-
saries. 1t will be the same story IL
our workers slow down while the Ger
man workers drive their hardest. If
our productive efficiency falls, as 1t
is falling, while the productive eff
cheney of Germany rises, as 1t will
rise under the spur Of necessity, we
cannot hold our own against German
goods. No war sentiment will keep
them out If our productivity falls
low enough, If our cost of production
goes high enough, no tariff that, any
nation would tolerate would keep
them out.
There is no reasonable tariff law,
there is no reasonable transportation
difficulty, there is no reasonable eli
matte handicap, there is no reasonable
natural differential that will compen-
safe for the failure of man or a ma
ton to put in square days work on
any job that must measure up against
the job of man or a nation that
does put in squQre days work all
the Days of the week and all the
weeks Of the year.
