from the fact that the bankers have
volunteered to cooperate with the
state officials in all steps intended to
protect the credit Of the state the
most significant feature of the meet
ing was the statements made by the
governor and the states bank OFF,

the standpoint of revenue and from
that Of the eommsrcial interests of
the country. Even in normal tinaes
. tariff Schedule il good for only a
short tina. because the needs or the
country change from timcto, time,
and there are changes in the condi-
items governing duties on specific ar
tisles. The present conditions Ore
not normal, ana the Underwood tariG
law, under which we are pow york
Ing, ~ enacted during a period OF
peace. when there was no ~ant!cipa-
zion of the confusion and increased
expenditure to be caused by the war.
Congressman Longworth has Just
expressed the opinion that no tariff
legislation will be possible at this ses-
sion of congress. and he il pndeubted-
ly right. Preparatory work can be
done and passed On to the next con-
gress, but this is all that can be ex-
pected.
There has always been q. serious
defect in bur tarin procedure in that
the effort has been made in each
tariff bill to write into the statutes
as 4 fixture the entire policy Of aqpo-
litical party. The result is q rigid
document which al scarcely be
made to respond to the varying needs
of the country month by month, and
the inevitable result is hat whenever
there is a change in the political CONS
pisxion of the legislative body, one
Of the first steps taken is to discard
the old tariff law and substitute an
entirely new one.
II, in ordinary times, when the
business of the country and the
world is on a relatively stable basis,
it ts desirable that the tariff law be
sufficiently elastic to permit changes
in detail to be made from time 70
time without the writing Of an ep-
timely new law, that need is surely
more pronounced now, when Inn
portant changes in the entire bust
ness situation r not only probable
but certain, and when It is impossible
to foraaee what will be the nature Of
these changes. =
The Republican party hsS been
known as the high tariff.
and the Democratic party q the low
tariff party. In the one case the
party has been identified with. the
of protection IS the chief
element in a set of schedules, and in
the other the revenue feature has
predominated. In a general way
these classifications have been cor
rect. But there. has always been
more or less overlapping. Carried

Mckinley, an ardent protec-
ZIONIST, looked forward to reciprocal
trade arrangements to be promoted
BY tariff arrangements. Senator TN
aerwoed. one Of the authors Of the
present tariff law, is considered a
moderate pr~otectionist, and President
has more than once pointed
INT the necessity for recognizing our
industrial conditions grow-
ing out of the war in framing our
:arin laws.
It is improbable that political lead
ers of any party contemplate a re-
urn to anything like the tariff laws
of more than = quarter of a century
ago, and II such q desire were en-
5ertained, practical men would aban-
ION it because OF the knowledge that
