MORAL SIDE OF
PROTECTIVE POLICY

Those philanthropic free traders
who are so fearful that the Republic
cans will pass a tariff law which will
interfere with importers profits,
would do we'll to consider some of
the objections of American manufac-
turers to unrestricted competition
with European and Oriental coun-
tries, particularly Germany and
Japan. Representatives of the Amer
fcan toy industry, for example,
enumerate among "other phases of
the radically unfair competition to
which American manufacturers are
subjected and which calls for i'm
mediate and imperatively necessary
treatment" the fact that "the Ger
man and Japanese toy industries are
ungoverned by sanitary, union or
child labor restrictions; that in the
large proportion Of home work done
in both countries the earnings of an
entire family are less than the wage
of an individual American to factory
employe, and that all of the most
important and popular American toy
inventions and devices are copied
outright in both countries. neither of
which is known to have a toy of i'm
portance to its credit as creator"
These toys copied by foreign makers
are sent to this country and offered
for sale ct less than the American
cost of actual production because of
the wide difference between the wage
scales and habits of life in the coun-
tries in question and those of the
United States. according to the
American toy makers.
II there is any good reason why

This morning ]. Frank TRAINER

The Federation of Labor criticizes
the Rockefeller gift of $4,000 900 to
the causes of education as tainted
money. That is nothing less than ut
terly silly. Every dollar in your
pocket is tainted, unless 1t is fresh
from the mint or printing press. The
dollars you handle every day are dirty
with graft, robbery. arson, rape. muir
der and every other crime on the cal
endar. The quickest way to rub the
faint off Of money is to use 1t in a
good cause, and there is no better
cause than that of education. The
more education and enlightment there
Is the less tainted money there will
be.

CENSORSHIP
OF MOVIES

There Is much talk all over the
country about censoring the movie
picture shows, the claim being
made that many of the scenes shown
are extremely racy. and that the con-
slant romancing of crime and show
ing 1t to the young promotes a ten
dency to crime. 1t Is i broad ques-
ton. That some of the scenes de-
picted on the screen are bad Is a
fact. and probably some kind of SUI
pervision should be over them. The
opponents of the plan say that If i'm
moral or other objectional pictures
are shown it is because the people go
to see them and want that sort of
thing, but that is no argument at all,
and probably emanates from those
engaged in the business. The people
would not and did not drink liquor,
either, unless they wanted 1t, but it
was prohibited. just the same. for
their own good and benefit. The
same is true of all laws for the sup
preston of crime and wrong.

American manufacturers should be
penalized for their efficiency by un-
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 adduced it. If
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
6nditions and the standards of liv-
ing are such as no American, union
or non-union, would for a moment
tolerate.
Protection has a moral as we'll as
an economic side. Our employees
have become habituated to a higher
standard Of living, better clothes, bet
ter food, better education for their
children, better housing. and enlarged
opportunities for recreation and men,
tai improvement. The American
laborer is no clod, no mere newer of
wood and drawer of water. And all
this has been brought about through
wages two or three times greater
than prevail in Europe, five times
those prevailing in the Orient, and an
ever increasing appreciation of hui
manitarianism on the part of this
nation generally.
With free trade the rule in this
country, policy which is supported
by a dwindling minority. the tend
ency of labor conditions would be to
descend to the level of those prevail
ing in Europe and the Orient The
wage scale would be the first to
drop, followed quickly by lowering
Of the living standards. 1t is a mere
platitude to say that laboring man
can not live as well, or support his
family as we'll, on a wage curtailed
by foreign competition as he can
when that competition is restricted
and the products of his labor are
given the predominant place In the
domestic market. The free traders
argue that the efficiency of the
American workmen will offset the
foreign wage scales and then in the
same breath declare that Europe can
never pay her indebtedness unless
she Is given monopoly in the Ameri-
can market But the Republican party
intends to restore the protective
policy. and If these free traders are
still philanthropically inclined, they
will find plenty of work to do in in
ducing foreign employers to raise
the standards of their operatives.
