MIDDLETOWN. DEL, MAY zlst, 1921
SCONCE HOLDS WELL HIS LIGHT

HARVEY j. SCONCE, speaking to
l 1 the U. S. Chamber of Commerce
at its Ninth Annual Convention at At
lantic City, on agriculture and Tariff, "
said:
"While it is true that this coun-
try has become creditor nation
during the past few years, yet this
fact does not lessen our response
bility to our people, and our tariff
should be so framed as to first con-
slider their needs. An industry as
important to the nations welfare
as that of agriculture must have
adequate protection in order to give
the opportunity for the greatest de-
velopment which will result in bet
ter living conditions for all the peo-
pie of the nation.
Mr.. Sconce holds we'll his light so all
who run may read. An idea is being
fostered by some of our friends who
are more interested in the import game
than in domestic production, that be-
cause we are creditor nation we
should let down the tariff bars and per-
NIT our creditors to pay US eleven or
twelve billions of dollars in goods,
ware, and merchandise, in order to can
eel their bills to u.s. These importers
are perfectly willing that American ag-
riculture and industry should lay off for
awhile until this is DONE that the fields
should lie fallow and the wheels stop
revolving in order that American con.
sumers may turn to foreign goods.
They overlook the fact that if we dc
not keep industry going we will soor
have no wherewithal to purchase any
thing they may import, and industry
cannot be kept going if we are to per
nit our foreign competitors to have the
American market. Neither can we sci
abroad if we do not keep industry run
ming at such capacity as will reduce thu
unit cost of production.
We must and will have a tariff which
will not prohibit all Importation. bu
will so restrict it as to give American
agriculture and industry ca predomi
mating place in it's own market.
