Now we in the pottery industry
do not have a quarrel with the
people of Japan and Germany OF
any other nation, since the war has
ended, but we do believe their
manufactured products shipped in
to this country should sell at or
very near the retail prices asked
for similar articles manufactured
in the United States.
Are the potters and the COM
panies which employ them asking
too much when we insist upon an
equal opportunity to sell our mer-
chandise in our own American
market?
Let every employee in the pot
terry industry notify the congress
man from his district that strong
protective tariff is absolutely
necessary to safeguard our way
of life.
