Favors Tariff. Commission. Townsend of Michigan argued "that free lumber would help only the owner of Canadian stumpage. Morse (Rep.) of Wisconsin served notice that. If permitted, he would introduce an amendment to provide for a permanent tariff Commission. Cullop of Indiana denounced the Payne bill "as the embodiment of a gigantic struggle of its beneficiaries to see who can plunge his hands deepest into the consumers' pockets." A plea for protection for the xinc in dustry was made by Copp of Wisconsin. Chandler of Mississippi attacked the bill as containing a higher average rate of taxation than any tariff law. not ex cepting those enacted to meet the exigen cies of the Civil War. Hamilton of Michigan pointed out that the American manufacturer started out ...... . ...uitap owing to the higher cost ?, J "s Plant a against those of the Eng lish. French. German and Belgian man-.U"LrS- That handicap, therefore, had to be overcome by protection of the home products. Bankruptcy to Philippines. Pable Ocampo .e In. Resident Com missioner of the Philippines, criticised frtP "POSlU"n for 'ree trade. b-cauS3 he said .t would cause a decrease in the t"ruf,nT of the islands nd act upon the IZI s to preclude the 7hl , "-uepenoence. Speaking for ml. E,'nOSA and VOIclng their senti Mr. Ocampo de Lon pleaded for such independence. .i' A.1 6Ln as the measure becomes opera tive, he said, "it would immediately cause in the first year a decrease in the which" th fix mil,ion f" from which the Philippine government obtains the greater portion of its income for Lhe support of the administration. This de crease would augment every year as for eign Importations gradually fell off, owing to the advantageous position which American products would have in the market, a position which would inevit ably annul foreign competition. "IJving under the protection of this country the Kiliplnos would willingly grant the greatest preference to Amfr- Products, were they not convinced that such preferences mean ruin for their "t? Snf.e,foreign eods re driven from the Flllipino markets, the importer or American products would control the situation. "Decrease of the customs revenues would inevitably compel the Philippine government to go into bankruptcy be cause there are no other sources from which to obtain revenues to meet its financial obligations. Reciprocity on Certain Articles. "Viewing the question in Its political aspect. Is not there a danger that future ndependence of the Filipinos would be Injured bv- the tien (nPC(.,:D.. establishment of free trade? The trusts and other corporations that would estab lish themselves in the Philippines, encour- uj ires traae, would place a for midable barrier against Filipino freedom. The only reciprocity we ask is that our sugar and tobacco be -jdmltted free of duty, and in exchange allow all agricul tural machinery and Implements of man ufacture free admission Into all parts of the Philippines." The Commissioner said he voiced the sentiment of 8,000,000 Filipinos in asking Congress to grant them independence. At the conclusion of Ocampo de Ion s remarks Goulden of New York made the statement that at a public din ner in Washington, before he was Presi dent, Mr. Taft declared that when he went to the Philippines he was credibly Informed that if he could get the Influ ence and active support of Ocampo de Ieon he would have no trouble in oaci fylng the Filipino people. .v,"A8 XtleJ pacifiel now?" a voice on the Republican side was heard to say "They are pacified," was Goulden's "re ply to his unknown questioner , Moore of Pennsylvania ' addressed the House "as a protectionist who be lieves In his own land and the ad vancement of his own people." He plead ed for protection for American men and women who know the blessings of their own environments and seek to hold them undisturbed : protection from the prejudice that holds enthralled American genius and against the wasteful Anglo-maniac who fritters away American substances upon foreign fops and follies."
