Forty carloads of rock are being

TARIFF BOOSTS
FOREIGN TRADE

The dismal prediction of bushes!
disaster to follow the enactment Of
a Republican protective tariff Law
has thus far been discredited by
events, says a Washington dispatch
The facts regarding the effect Of
the tariff on foreign trade were sci
forth briefly by Representative
Frank w. Mondell, Republican floor
leader of the house, in the recent
session of congress. He said in
part:
Notwithstanding the difficulties
which surrounded the enactment of
a tariff bill, our experience under
the Fordney-McCumber act has
demonstrated the wisdom Of that
Legislation. Under it our produc-
tive industries have returned to or
are rapidly reaching a condition of
normal and prosperous operation. In
many lines production has largely
increased and the handicaps, hind
RANGES, and difficulties of war and
after-war conditions have very
largely passed away. The most
impressive fact in connection with
this readjustment and return of nor
malcy and prosperity is to be found
in the wiping out of the appalling
register of the unemployed-the
fact that there is a job and en-
ployment for all who seek it.
1.-THE figures of imports and ex-
ports and of customs receipts for
the months of October, November
and December, 1922, the first three
months of the new tariff and the
latest which have been compiled,
are most satisfactory from the stand
point Of the friends of the new
tariff act and must be rather dis
concerting to those who prophesied
it's failure. It was widely and Wig
orously asserted that the new tariff
would seriously Interfere with our
foreign trade, would make it inn
possible for Europe to sell us goods
and thus meet their obligations, and
that it would close the doors Of
the world to our producers. It was
even prophesied that we would fail
to secure any considerable addi-
tional revenue. All these forebod-
ings and prophesies have failed and
gone away. Both imports and ex-
ports have increased. Imports have
increased approximately $3.50, O00,-
900 in the three months referred
to, as compared with the cores
ponding three months of the pre-
ceding year while exports have in
creased approximately $212,000,O00
for the same period.
"The customs receipts ring thu
same period under the new tariff
have been approximately $4,000
600 above the same period of the
previous year, or at the rate If APP
proximately $150000,O00 more an
nually.
