THE MORAL SIDE
OF PROTECTIVE
POLICY

WASHINGTON, April 5.-"Those
philanthropic free traders. who are
$50 fearful that the Republicans will
pass tariff law which will Interfere
with importers profits. would do well
to consider some OF the objections of
American manufacturers to unrc-
stricted competition with European
and Oriental countries. particularly
Germany and Japan" declares the
Republican Publicity association,
through its president. Hon Jonathan
Bourne j. Representatives of the
American toy industry, for example,
Ienumerate among other phases OF
the radically unfair competition to
which American manufacture are
subjected and which calls for immedi
ate and imperatively necessary treat
ment, the fact that the German and
japanese toy industries are unEov-
erned by sanitary, union or child la
Dor restrictions; that in the large
proportion of home work done In
both countries the earnings of an en-
tire family are less than the wage
of an individual American toy fac
tory employee and that all of the
most important and popular Ameri-
can toy inventions and devices are
copied outright in both countries,
neither of which is known to have
toy of Importance TO its credit as
creator. These toys copied by for
eign makers are sent TO this country
and offered for sale at less than the
American cost of actual production
becuse of the wide difference be-
tween the wage scales and habits of
life in the countries in uestion' and
those of the United States, according
to the American toy makers.
If there is any good reason why
American manufacturers should be
penalized for their efficiency by an E.
regulated competition in the pro.
ducts OF countries which employ child
labor. the labor of old women, car
ried on under unsanitary conditions
and unlimited as to hours. the free
traders have not yet aduced it. n
their propaganda for free trade is
actuated by desire TO be helpful to
humanity instead Of by the wish to
add to their profits through escaping
protective duty rates, they might
well extend their philanthropy to
Europe and Asia first, where labor
conditions and the standards of liy-
ing are such as no American, union
or non-union. would for a moment
tolerate
