What Is Raw Material?

The opponents of Protective Tar
if, when not raging against that
wicked instrument whereby ''the
manufacturers are robbing the peo-
pie" say that on account of lack of
free raw material" the manufactur-
ers are forced out of business.
Congressman Undertake, of Colo
RADIO, in speaking on the Tariff Bill in
the House of Representative made
the following cogent remarks:
Mr.. Speaker, in the building of
Tariff platform on which the indus
tries of our country are to stand for
many years to come it is absolutely
essential that no gaps be left in this
platform through which any worthy
industries may fall to bankruptcy and
extinction. There has been much talk
| before Congress of raw material. of
free raw material. What is raw
material? ! will tell you what a raw
material is, and in telling you / will
use substantially the words Of the
| chairman Of the Ways and Means
Committee (Mr. FordneyJ in mis-
statement in the hsarings before our
committee Of the Southern Tariff
Association Of April 70, 1921, when
he said:
/ will tell you Hhat an material Is

material. The hide on the az.ek Of a
range steer that has never had human
/ care, is a raw material. But the min.
| ute you introduce one iota Of human
/ labor into that, you have some nnan'l
| finished product. If for the protec.
ton of this finished product, if for the
existence of the industry on which il
! is based, it is necessary that a Tariff
! be levied, then the principles of Pro
! lection apply equally to this as raw
! material as it does to it as finished
! product.
What do these raw materials, sc
/ called, include? They include the
! products of our farms and oul
ranges; they include the products OF
our mines and our smelters; they in
clude those industries which employ
labor in greatest quantity; they in
| clude those industries which are the
bone and sinew of our Nation"
! The truth is that no commodity
which is bought and sold is raw
material. What is one mans raw
material is another's finished product
Wheat is the raw material of the mil
Ter, but the finished product of the
farmer. Flour is the raw material Of
the baker, but the finished product o.
the miller. To grant Protection tx

CHAPTER SIX.
In Which a Very Old Game Takes
Place on the Hogs 5~ck.

A thick grey mist lay over the
Thames. 1t covered the water and the
low fields to the west like a thick
white carpet; 1t drifted sluggishly
under the old bridge which spans me
river between GOring and Su eatley.
1t was the hour before dawn, and
sleepy passengers, rubbing the win
dOws of their carriages as the Ply
mouth boat express rushed on toward
London, shivered and drew their rugs
closer around them. 1t looked cold

bushes of a little garden, which
stretched from a bungalow down to
the waters edge, until at length wisps
of it brushed gently round the bunga-
low itself. Suddenly the window of
one of the dOwnstair rooms was flung
open, and a man with a white bag
gard face leaned out drawing great
gulps OF fresh air into his lungs
Three other men lay sprawling IN
cOuthly in chairs, and two dogs lay
motiOnlcss on the hearthrug.
After a moment or two the man
withdrew. only to appear again with
one of the others in his arms. AND
then, having dropped his burden
through the window on to the lawn
outside. lie repeated his performance
with the remaining two. Finally he
pitched the two dogs after them. and
then, with his hand to his forehead.
he staggered down to the waters
edge.

cold water. talk about the morning

After a while. with the water still
dripping down his face, he returned
to the bungalow and found the other
three in various stages of partial in
sensibility.

With a grim smile he watched the
three men lurch down to the water /;
then he turned and went upstairs to
the room which had been occupied
by the American millionaire It was
empty, as he had known il would be,
and with a smothered curse he made
his way downstairs again.

he FINANCIAL MARKET


NEW YORK, Dec. S0--The stool,
exchanges final full session OF the
year was marked by conflicting and
erratic fluctuations.
Heavy cash sales to meet income
tax returns occurred in many Of the
low priced issues, but representative
rails and favorite industrials were
comparatively strong, though dull in
contrast with the activity shown by
speculative issues.
Opinions from authoritative sources
dealing with general conditions in the
coming year sounded note Of optim-
ism, especially in relation to CONNER
cial and industrial prospects.
These were borne out by overnight
developments, such as the strength
ening of the financial position OF the
Sears Roebuck Company, further fav-
orable November railroad earnings
and advices from Montana indicating
early resumption Of operations in the
copper mines.
Money rates stiffened in conse-
quence Of unexpectedly large renewals

points were reduced to 4 ST at the
close. Studebaker. railway steel

sugars were among the other stocks
to show substantiar net gains.
Trading in foreign exchanges was
larger than any recent period and the
strong tone suggested more encour-
aging view OF European economic con
ditions. Sterling bills were at the

REVIEW


NEW YORK, Dec. 3O-The cotton
market has been quiet but generally
steady during the past week. with
prices making new high ground for
the movement Realizing checked the
advance slightly above the 10 cent
level for January and March contracts
during the middle OF the week, and
there may have been a little setting in
expectation OF increased southern spot
offerings. No hedge selling az inn
portance was reported, however and
the market touched the best prices OF
the movement during todays trading
with January deliveries selling at
1914, or moro than two cents above
the low price reached on the crop esti-
mate of December IL, and three cents
above the level of last November. The

has been encouraged by reports from

some buying for export as well as do

THE COTTON MARKET
New Orleans.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 3o.--In the
early trading in cotton today the tone
was very firm for a while on contin-
ued encouraging reports from mill
centers, but after advances of about
checked by the disappointing showing
of mill takings for the week and
prices fell off somewhat from the
highest. IN the early afternoon the
market turned very erratic under re-
ports that a large New York and
Chicago brokerage firm was in trou-
bic, first rising TO levels 81 10 90
points over the close of yesterday and
then falling off 10 levels points over
to points under the close of yester-
day. March traded up to 1918 and
then fell back to 1888. In the late
trading a much steadier tone devel-
oped with a full recovery in the price
of March rising to 1920, so that the
close was at net gains on the day of
is to 2s points with March at. 1915.
Much of the early Bteadiness was
due to the strength of Liverpool and
to reports that Manchester was doing
much better business with India and
booking orders ahead for several
months. A mill point in Georgia told
of the sale of 200 bales of cloths and
said that mill there had orders
enough ahead to keep it running to
full capacity for the next six months.
A telegram from Galveston, stating
that a steamer there was loading 49,
600 bales of cotton for Hamburg made
"a decidedly favorable impression, but
the market lost its Roadway when mill
takings Of only $4,000 bales were

sidered that these takings was mere

! NEW YORK. Dec. 3o.-While some
what irregular, the cotton market
4 showed a generally steady undertone
! today, with prices making new high
1 ground for the movement on most pc
sitions. March sold up to 1906 or 81
points net higher and a point above
the high price touched during the
middle of the week that delivery
closed at 1895, with the general mar
let closing barely Steady but 10 to 20
points above last nights quotations.
The market opened firm at an adj
vance Of 10 to q points in response
to relatively steady cables, reports Of
improving business IN cotton goods in
Lancashire and fayorable reports from
Fan River where the weeks sales of
cotton cloths were estimated At 1s0,-
600 pieces. The early advance met
scattered realizing for over the holi-
days which was absorbed BY covering
and trade buying on moderate reac-
lions with prices working UP again
during the middle Of the day. This
b;slge was checked by the announce
ment that a Wall Street firm had
made am assignment for the benefit
Of creditors, and there was another
furry of liquidation which sent the
market off to 1892 for January and
1888 for May or within few points
of last nights closing quotations, The
unsettling effect Of this development
was apparently Of brief duration, how
ever, and the best prices OF the day
were reached in the later trading on
most OF the active months. with jan
uary selling at 1914 and May at 1851,

The clos was seven to eight points
off from the hesttunder realizing. Pri-
vate cables said that Manchester buy
ing had absorbed scattered American
selling in the Liverpool market and

ing. Local brokers reported very few
