BISHOP As Distinct Castes In America as In India By BASANTA KOOMAR ROY. tn East Indian Who fttudled Journalism In This Country CUE United States has aa DISTINCT A CASTE SYSTEM AS INDIA, only you Americana cannot tee it. It takes a foreigner unused to your ways to judge your manners and customs in an unbiased light. The whole so called "civilized" world pities India because of her rigid caste system. It is truly deplorable, but is it much worse than the state of affairs that exists in the United States! HERE YOU HAVE A MONEY AND A COLOR CA8TE. The MAN WITH FIFTY MILLION DESPISES THE MAN WITH ONE MILLION, the man with one million looks down on tho man with a thousand, and the man with a thousand spurns the man who hasn't anything. How many.Americans would break bread with a negro or live in the same house with a Chinaman! Are not your bitter race wars and your policy of refusing admission of the Chinese to this country but expressions of a flourishing caste system! PRESENT TARIFF FOSTERS FRAUDS Domestic Cotton Fabrics Sold Americans as "Imported" CHEATING THE CONSUMER Lata Than 2 Par Cant Comaa From Abroad, but Amaricana Pay Ex orbitant Prica For Homo Gooda Ba causa of Docaption and Prohibitive Tariff. By ROBERT KENNETH MAC LEA, IForroerly consulting expert of tho tariff board. J New York. . .-The prohibitive tariff, revised upward by the I'ayne Aldrich law, permits and fosters wholesale frauds upon the American consumer of cotton goods. Less than 2 per cent of the cotton fabrics consumed In the Dnlted States cornea from abroad, because the pro tective duties have been made ao high that Importation is unprofitable. Vet fully one-third of the cotton piece goods roIiik over retail counters la sold as "IMPORTED" or under oames Implying a foreign origin. Thia dacaption ia ganerally perpe tratad upon the consumer for tha pur- poaa of obtaining exorbitant pricaa for domastio goods. The consumer, believing the goods ire Imported and knowing tnat tne tariff adds excessively to their cost, pays 50 to 100 per cent more than a fair price and does not suspect that he la being cheated. Drains tha Pooketbook. Let ua go straight to a specific ex ample of the operation of this fraud. Take the tariff board's cloth sample No. 50, described as a "printed dim ity." This Is a medium priced cotton fabric known to almost every Ameri can housewife. What woman or girl hasn't possessed a dimity dress within the last few years? And If she went to the cotton goods counter and bought the material by the yard she no doubt saw such signs as: ................ A . . . . TTTf TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTf TTTTT X IRISH DIMITY. i sNaAAAAAsla.aAAsNAAl.AiAAAiiA rTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT The World's tariff editor visited with me a department store in a New Eng land city of 100.000 inhabitants and found recently a counter piled with these goods, placarded: REAL IRISH DIMITY, I 1 eta. T We procured snmples of all of them. There was not one piece of imported goods In the lot. Investigation proved that the store buyer bad purchased ttiLse "Irish" dimities from a Boston Jobber at 10 cents a yard and that they were made in a New England mill. Here was a supposed "bargain" in a supposedly "imported' fabric, on which the retailer was taking a profit of 00 per cent! This hnppens to be a rubric repre senting the highest efUclency In Amer ican manufacturing. It is a class of gooda tn which we can compete ad vantageously with any country In the world. The tariff board's Investiga tions discovered on sample No. 50 an American cost of production of 7 1-3 cents yard. In all the mills Inves tigated the board's representatives found that the low and high costs of manufacture of this fabric did not vary half a cent a yard. Who Gsta tha Profit 7 Tha manufacturer of thin American llmlty, that Is sold as "Imported" and "Irish," does not get the excessive profit. In some Instances the manu facturer dots, but here he sells to the lobber at 8 cents, taking ouly a nom inal manufacturing profit of two-thirds cent a yard. The joblier sells to the retailer at 10 cents, a 23 per cent mar tin for the Joblier. In Canada, with 25 per cent tariff, tottoa fabric costing 10 cents a yard would be sold to the consumer at 12 or sometimes at 15 cents If the patters happened to be in special demand. In the United States, with Its prohibitive tariff, the retail price Is always much higher. The standard price retail is 15 cents for the fabric wholesaled at 10. But when the tariff is excessive It Is 54 per cent on this printed dimity the dishonest retailer can "get away with" his deception and double or more than double his normal profit by selling the domestic article as "Imported." The retailer knows that be could not buy a genuine Imported dimity of this quality from a foreign manufacturer's agent in New York for less than 15V4 or 10 cents, and the trade would re- tall this at 23. tie compares the do mestic and foreign fabrics and finds the American made Is equal in every respect to the fabric from abroad. So he aays to himself. "Why not sell It as foreign goods at a price that will make It attractive r Mill Man Pockets It. In some cases the manufacturer takes the tariff favor for his own pocket. Tariff board sample No. 34 Illustrates this No. 34 Is a fancy white goods used for dress wear. Its manufacturer encountered a fair de mand for this material during the past season. Table No. 109 of the tariff board's report shows a manufacturing profit of 00 per cent It costs to manu facture this cloth 12.10 cents a yard. The mill refuses to sell to any one ex cepting the Jobber, and through this channel the cloth reaches the retailer at 22 to 25 cents a yard. The retail er charges the consumer 33 to 39 cents, according to location and local compe tition. For comparison take tha value of tha fabrio on weight. At the manufactur ing cost of 12.16 canta a yard one pound of thia gooda ia worth $123 aa it laavaa the mill. Whan it raachaa tha aonsumar (at 39 canta a yard) tha prica hae baan booatad to $420 a pound. The manufacturing cost of this cloth In England is practically the same as here, yet the English manufacturer sells It for 15.44 cents a yard, the job ber at 17.26 cents and the retailer at 22 cents. Bear in mind that the "difference In cost of production st home and abroad" In this class of fabric represented by sample No. 84 amounts to nothing, but the Psyne-Aldrich tariff on it equals 65.89 per cent, or 8 cents per running yard. Fancy goods of the type of sample No. 84 are products of the Ltppltt-Mc-Coll class of mills. The rayne-Aldrlch blU raised the duty on this cloth from 85 to 55.89 per cent. Is it any wonder thst Senator Llppltt and Mr. McCoIl were Interested In amending the Payne bill. New York World. WOODROW WIL8QN. THOMAS RILEY MARSHALL.
