than any now in effect, can have such
an abundance of cotton and food
stuffs as not only to take care of this
country's needs, but the needs of many
others as well. In view of this fact,
would it have been to the interest Of
the American farmer to further re-
duce foreign purchasing power for our
exports by prohibiting imports? We
knew that further reductions in i'm
ports would be unjust to consumers,
and we believed they would work to
the disadvantage of farmers. We had
seen the effect Of rising American
tariff walls on Americas foreign sales
of farm products. If we increased our
tariff rates to block the entrance Of
foreign foodstuffs during the first
months of 1885, there was the chance
was the certainty of long-term lost.
Barring out farm product imports
in 1885 would have been of very tenn
porary advantage to farmers. The re-
Sulting rise in domestic prices would
have hurt consumers, who would have
responded by buying less of that prod
uct. Within a short period of time the
price would have climbed back down
under the pressure Of consumer re-
sentiment, and the farmer would be
back where he was.
We have seen that sequence OF
events again and again. Every dairy
man knows that when butter gets
above certain price, consumers turn
to margarine: live stock men know
that when one meat gets relatively
higher than another consumers turn
to the meats still low in price.
To say that raising tariff rates
would be to the farmers long-term
disadvantage is simply to point to the
history of the past IS years. It would
be a profound tragedy for farmers to
forget that history, to forget how re-
peated tariff increases injured their
export market, perhaps beyond repair.
hope they will also remember that
every time farm tariff was raised
three or four industrial commodities
got higher rates, too.
Aided Industry to Increases.
It is a matter Of record that the
emergency tariff of 1921 on farm
commodities exerted no influence on
the course of farm prices in that de-
preston year. Yet the fact that
those rates had been put up, even
though they were only operative on
paper, in part accounts for the ease
with which industry claimed and got
increases in effective protection In
the Fordney-McCumber act Of 1922.
The making of the Hawley- -Smoot
tariff began IN the guise of an effort
to do something for agriculture. You
will recall how rapidly the industrial
interests in 1929 turned from helping
agriculture to helping themselves. I
suppose there never has been a tariff
as effective as the Hawley-Smoot tar
if was in inciting other countries to
retaliatory measures that barred out
American exports.
The injury done the Nation as a
whole, and agriculture in particular,
by past tariff policy was, of course,
instrumental in creating sentiment for
the agricultural adjustment act. The
parityprice principle grew out of
recognition that for years farmers had
to sell in world marekt, but buy
in protected domestic market. In
other words, because the ordinary
tariff failed to work for most farm
ers, it became necessary to devise q
kind of tariff that would work for

them. Hence the benefit payments
derived from processing taxes; hence
the mechanism by which American
farmers receive, for the domestically
consumed part of their production, the
equivalent domestic price long enjoyed
by industry. The mechanism has
worked well enough, at least, so that
farmers now call the processing tax
the farmers tariff.
Sought to Protect Farmers.
Agriculture was compelled to devise
mechanism of this sort because
other and more powerful economic
groups had perverted our tariff policy
far from its original course. If you
will dig back in history to the debates
in the First Congress, when our first
tariff measure was being framed. you
will discover that the members of that
Congress were much concerned with
the effect protected industrial prices
might have on agriculture. They
agreed that they must at all costs SO
frame the tariff that it would not
injure agriculture.
Shortly before passage Of the frs:
tariff act Washington wrote to La
fayette that he would not force the
introduction of manufactures by ex-
travagant encouragement, ard to The
prejudice of agriculture, but he i'm
piled that it should be possible to foS-
ter manufactures without injuring
farmers.
Mr.. Scott of Pennsylvania. repre-.
senting the manufacturing interests
clearly saw the danger of an unbal-
anced economy.
II think" he said, that If the land
ed interest is ruined by our regulation
the ruin of the manufacturing inter-
est must be a necessary consequence
*S* Agriculture Is entitled to its pro-
portion Of encouragement, so also are
manufacturers and commerce, and for
no more than that proportion do
contend"
In his famous Report on Manufac-
lures" in 1892 Hamilton referred spe-
cifically to the problem Of the prices
farmers pay. He advanced the view
that once industries were established
in this country. prices of manufac-
tured goods would fall. He said:
1T is a reflection which may with
propriety be INDUCED here. that this
eventual diminution OF the prices OF
manufactured articles, which is the
result of internal manufa cturing es-
tablishments. has a direct and very
important tendency to benefit agri.

cure, with smaller quantity of his
labor, the manufactured produce OF
