May 1 add, since have started this
depression, that just after the war /
went to Constantinople as high COM
missioner for Italy in Turkey? At the
time everything was disorganized in the
Turkish Offices there. Everything was
on sale. 1t was easy for me to obtain
copies of certain deliberations of the
Sublime Porte. The tragic and beauti-
full days of Caporetto came back to my
mind when l read that on receiving an
ostentatious Self-satisfled report of the
Austro- German successes in the Alps
the grand vizier, Talaat Pasha, had de-
clared:
1T is the greatest defeat since the
Marne if the Italians have made a
stand 1t means that they believe In final
victory and that our victory. great as 1t
may seem, Is only poor tactical sue
cess"
So a cunning Oriental saw the future
more clearly than emperors and learned
statesmen in Western Europe.
The Italians found the strength for a
supreme defense, because they were a
free people determined to defend free
country.
Germany created new conscience
for herself after Jena, not because any
anointed Emperor rallied the Germans
around him. but because the professors,
the students. the citizens of every rank
felt the shame of being the dust of a
people, not people. 1t was this process
of German moral unification that
reached its elimination 40 years later.

Frankfort proclaimed the resurrection

away through Congress, and especially
through the Senate.
In the coming extra session much will
be heard of the historic differences of
the parties. Senator Simmons, veteran
Democratic leader on the finance COM
mittee, is expected to make fight for
the purpose, ostensibly at least, of keep
ing the Democratic party to its old
moorings. But everybody knows that
will be a vain endeavor. The fight
which the Democratic leaders in the
House and Senate will conduct for low
tariffs will be in the main political.
Democrats Feel Pressure.
few of the Democratic leaders, in
Guiding Representative Cordell Hull of
Tennessee, undoubtedly are earnest adj
tariff rates. in the tariff for revenue
theory. perhaps even in free trade as
matter of principle. But most of the
Democratic membership in Congress will
have back of it the same demand for
high tariff that Republican members
have back of them, and to a large ex-
tent it will yield to that demand.
The rapid industrialization of the
South since the World War has created
situation which is profoundly affect
ing tariff views. Southern industries
are quite as clamorous-in some cases
even more so--for protection against
foreign competition as the industries in
the North

party stood for protection to American
industries; the Democratic party abb
horred the idea of protection and stood
either for theoretical free trade or at
most. for a revenue tariff.
If Gen. Hancock were alive today. he
would have the satisfaction of knowing
that the tariff in recent years has been
diminishing in prominence as An issue
between the parties; that it has be-
come more and more plainly a struggle
of clashing interests. Sometimes the
issue is sectional. or more or less local.
AT other times the conflict Is Nation
wide in its scope,
Political leaders, it is true, are at
tempting to preserve the idea of the
historic conflict of the parties over
tariff-that is. some political leaders
are doing so. However, when Alfred E.
Smith in the last campaign abandoned
his allegiance 10 the historic loW-tarif
policy of his party ne made it difficult
for the Democratic party longer to con-
jure with any theory resembling free
trade, or even tariff for revenue.
Southern Views Changed.
He was doing nothing more than a
number of Democratic leaders in Con-
gress have been doing, though not quite
so openly, for years. 1t was well known
when the 1922 tariff revision was made
that many of the Southern Democrats
wanted high tariff rates on the products
of the industries that were growing by
leaps and bounds in the South. They
inveighed against the excessive rates of
the Fordney- McCumber measure. but
did not hesitate to throw protecting
arm about the manufacturers and pro-
ducers of their section. The result was
that there were some strangely mixed
roll calls as the bill advanced on its

tariff revision will be general scramble
for higher rates But it will not be en-
tirely that Politics still will play its
part in tariff making. Clashing sec
tional interests and clashing industrial
interests will disturb the legislative
waters.
The world movement for tariffs since
the war has not been without its effect
on American public opinion. The large
majority of both houses undoubtedly
will take a hand for protection to pre-
serve the home market. But there will
be wide difference of opinion and much
controversy over the question of just
what measure of protection is adequate
There still is powerful element, in
and out of Congress, that will look at
tariff rates from the point of view of
the consumer, insisting that excessive
rates will operate as tax on the public
and that the maximum of tariff rates
should be in accord with the principle
of the famous Iowa idea of two decades
ago. This was that the tariff should
not be a shelter to monopoly and that
the tariff should measure the difference

controversies that have been
waged periodically in the House and

In recent years great struggles over
tariff revision include those in 1922,
