How Proposed d
Tariff Bill Affects
Your Pock tbook

llst
Unless a sudden shift in senti-.
ment in congress is quickly effect
ed, the proposed tariff bill will be-
come law, and the American pub
lie will once more pay tribute un-
der the guise of protection to a
number of American industries
which have long since grown out
of their swaddiing clothes.
Though this, bill has already
passed the house and is now up for
consideration in the senate, many
protectionIst congressman and SEN.
ators are apprehensiye concerning
the effects Of this bill, but are
lighting losing battle against the
forces at work to push this bill
through this session OF congress.
Among other duties which have
been severely criticised the bill
provides for a duty of 33 cents a
pound on wool, based on the
secured content of the pound. It
is the highest tariff on wool that
has ever been in force, nearly
double the high water mark of
wool duties under the old Payne
Aldrieh tariff, which was the rec
ord in its day.
The effect Of this high tariff on
wool seems to be little understood
and appreciated by the members
Of congress; to. them it is but one
item of hundreds paragraph Of
small type away dowd in the mid
die Of the document. If they could
fully realize what its passage
would mean to the country, to- the
clothing industry, and to the peo-
pie who must buy clothes, they.
would undoubtedly revise this pro-
posed rate to bring it within reason.
