President Taft In bis tariff Cgbt
Some day this changing of tariff
schedules will be taken away from
con g r ess f where tbe tariff ia subject to
being amended by shrewd legislators.
For Instance each section of the
country tries to secure either free
trade or protection according to its
iuaj i4immlhiu irrespective ot tne
greatest good to the greatest num
ber of people. The tariff ia practic
ally no longer a political issue. Some
of our industries and products re
quire protection. The government
must of necessity to a certain extent
raise many millions of dollars of rev
ence from this source and must con
tinue to do so until other measures
are sought. lu time large sums of
revenue will be derived either
through an Income tax or a tax on
the gross or net earnings of the cor
porations or both.
The Republicans may cad it pro
tection but when corurjlfcted about as
much revenue will be derived as i
the Democrats were In power,
would pass a tari-I bill for revenue.
A tariff commission has tx?en sugg.'-s-
ted for many years and it dcx-s look
us though a commission comitosed of
men of large experience whose ob
Ject would be to adjust the tariff
along purely biisfness lins, would
remove much of the present long
weary months of fear that always
precedes any congresa that attemiits
to change tariff schedules, that neces
sarily demoralizes business during
period of uncertainty.
