The Very Worst Time"

Senator McCumber dropped into
apology when ne presented the
Finance Committees revision of the
Fordney tariff bin. He pleaded for
sympathy and leniency Of judgment,
IN view of the perpleXitics with
which the Senate tariff makers have
had to wreste. In this he differed
for the bctter-from Mr.. Fordney,
who is never assailed by hesitations
or doubts.
The North Dakota Senator said
truly:
Never before have the finance
committees Of Congress had pre-
,euted 10 them such a difficult task
as tba- involved in the framing Of
this BILL We have been often ad
eiscd, and the advice is well founded,
hat Of all times in our history this
the very worst time to formulate
and put into effect new tariff
uoasure
Why is this the very worst time
to draft and pass a new permanent
tariff? The answer is simple. a
permanent tariff should respond to
relatively stable conditions in trade
and Industry both at home and
abroad But every one knows that
world trade conditions are abnormal
almost chaotic-and that the proc
ess Of postwar readiustment is still
Tar from finished in this country.
Foreign exchange values and cur
seucio5 are deranged. Foreign prices
are variable. There are no fixed
standards Of production elsewhere to
which American fixed standards Of
production may be intelligertly re
lated by a tariff differential.
\ permanent tariff now is leap
in the dark-a rash discounting Of
.nc unknowablo The advice given
10 the Congress committees to hold
off from permanent tariff making
for the present was rudimentary
common sense. The country knows
a= we'll as Mr. McCumber does that
his is the worst possible time for
va ale tariff revision. How is it
70 be persuaded that there is any
real advantage IN doing now a thing
which it is most difficult to do, we'll,
even Nhen the time is exceptionally
favorable?

favorable time in 1909 But the

not spoil him from being lood COR

He has all the stops u his erea. IN

multitude with visions Of an en-

that some few people hate Mr Lloyd

is equally no wonder that the common
people hear him gladly, and pass
readily from swearing by him TO swear
ing at hm, and back again He is per
petually changing this one minute and
that the next, but always processing
and protesting his firm hold on eternal
principles 1t is this which maddens
