of the farmers" hands. and that a re-
lief measure passed in April or May
would not be very "helpful in an !n1-
mediate, practical way
Then why waste time in an effort
to pass an "emrgency" tariff bill?
Senator Capper inncently says that
"the psychology Of the thing is i'm
portant and that farmers would be
greatly chcercd by evidence Of SYM
pathy and comprehension Of their
difficlties.
American farmers are practical
men. They need no psychological"
or make believe course If tariff bill
can do them no good, they do not
want it. That the government SYM
pathizes with them. as, indeed, does
every element f the nation they
know full well. The only effective
way to help them is to open or ex-
pand foreign markets for their pro-
duce. The psychology of actual ex-
ports and sales is infinitely more
beneficial than the psychology of de
lusive and insincere tariff bills. :.
Furthermore, let senators and rep
rasentatives desirous of helping the
farmers see to it that the general
tariff bill that is planned does not
unnecessarily increase the cost Of tM
manufactured goods the farmers use.
What will it profit the farmer to have
theoretical protection fer his prod
ucts-swhich he exports-if the CON-
modities he has to buy in home mar
kets are to be given inflated values
by monopoly-breading tariff rates?
Give the farmer the benefits cf a
reasonable tariff system, plus a pol
icv of stimulating exports. and his
particlar problem, which is serious
enough. will be solved.
