IS IT PROTECTION
Or Reputation

Republicans in Congress should de-
cline to be stampeded by the ancient
bromides of anti-protectionists about
Chinese walls" and "prohibitive tar
ifs"
The truth is that owing to demor-
allied industrial and financial condi-
lions in Europe, particularly the fall
IN exchange, no tariff will be pro-
tective which is not much higher than
any that would have been necessary
d few years ago.
1t IS the duty and Che obligation of
the majority in Congress to establish
a tariff on az articles Of general
American production equal to the
difference in labor cost at home and
abroad, expressed in terms of Amer
lean money. Any tariff short of this,
whether it be five Per cent or a thou
sand per cert. vii be futile because
non-protectiye.
Enemies Of the protective policy,
representing not CRY the doctrinaire
opposition to protection in theory
but certain merchandising and finan-
cial interests which are willing to fat
ten on the very corpse of American
industry, have all too long delayed
Tho fuiiillment Of the Republican plat
SoIn pledge of a protective tariff.
Meanwhile the blight of industrial
paralysis has deepened. The shelves
Of American stores are crowded with
tforeign-made goods, but the wheels
Tin American factories are idle, and
will remain idle until something is
done to stop the i~nundation of the
American market with foreign COM
raodities.
There are those who parrot the
old free trade phrases about what
ever protective duty is imposed being
added to the price. That sophistry
has been thoroughly ~discredited by
the events of the past few years.
Giving the importers and foreign
producers control of the American
market does not mean that the
American will be enabled
to buy cheaply 1t merely means that
the importer win sufficiently under
sell the American producer to put
him out of business, eliminating do
nestle competition and making the
purchasers of this country perma-
nently the victims of alien exploit
alton.
No man in or out Of Congress who
believes that American industry
should not be protected from unfair
competition with alien production
based upon starvation wages and 9
standard of living that could be estab.
lished here only through the very de.
struction of our civilization, is nei
Their a good Republican nor a sount
American.

tirely labor costs, at home anC
abroad, it is not a protective tariff
Unless a protective tariff be adopted

On the basis OF three and one

100, 900, 900 Pounds TO Be
Used This Year

NEW YORK. Sept. e.--Approsi.
matsly 10000 900 pounds Of copper
will be utilized this year in the
manufacture Of automobiles in this
country. according TO a survey just
completed by IN. Copper and Brnss
research association. This IA an
increase OF 20 900. 600 pounds over
1891. and about $50. 900 pounds more
than 1920. In which latter year the
automobile industry consumed Tea
per cent Of tho total copper produc-
! ton.
Commenting on the use OF copper
IN tho automotlvc industry. tbs sur
vey says. In part:
In pre.war days. particularly since
the time when the AUTOMOBILES def.
niteiy emerged from the luxury
ciaAs. the demand was In excess Of
the supply. Consequently there
was practically no NEGATIVE TO
cheaper material costs: and copper.
brass and bronze were widely used
IN construction. where their prop.
critics. according 20 the best prin.
cipies OF machine dcsign. established
by generations OF engineering ex.
perience. made them Of service.
During the war years. an ahnor.
NAL condition arose. The price OF
copper increaed. It's use was restrict.
ed as TO non.essential industries
and the automobile manufactures
was forced To substitute inferior
metals.
In 1919. with removal of war time
restrictions. copper VIVA still rcia-
lively high. and thu automobile
manufacturer continued this prnc.
tlce OF substitution. During the
period of initiation aft,r tho nrmis-
tice there was a tremendous increase

Under insistcnt pressure TO lower
costs. automobile manufacturers
turned their attention first TO the
more expensive metni--copper. and
carried stiil further the principle of
substitution. first generally estab'
iished during the war years.
Substitution took many forms.
among them being sheetiron water

thetic hearing. Arabia, and more especially
the Hedjaz, containing the sacred cities OF
Medina and Mecca, has been anti Turkish
since the days when the Ottomans began
their victorious sweep westward.
Pan n-Turananism with its unsubstan-
tated claims to prestige has been a thorn in
the flesh Of Arab aristocrats, who assert
with some reason that the cultural achieve
ments of Islam are registered in their Lam
guage, that the faith owes its very inception
to their people and that the Turks are up
starts and their pretensions to the Caiphate
utterly without historic validity.
AS the Turkish national spirit increases,
it is plain that the spiritual union of Islam
is more and more threatened with disrup-
tion. The Hedjaz seized an attractive ,p-
portunity in the World War. when pride of
race triumphed over any feelings of loyalty
TO the Sultan and Caliph at Constantinoplc.
The breach will be deepened If Mohammcd
VI becomes Meccan. Within the shadow
of the Kaaba he will be enabled TO air his
grievances against the Kemalists. His
audience will be composed of traditional
antagonists to Ottoman hegemony. who can
hardly fail to enjoy the exquisite irony of
providing refuge for dsgruntled and
repudiated eX ruler from the Bosporus.
