NO TARIFF COMMISSION.
A
COMMITTEE representing man
ufacturers visited Washington
to argue In favor of a "non
partisan" tariff commission, to
, be provided for by congress this
winter, bnt Speaker Cannon and
' Chairman of the Ways "and Means
Committee Payne Informed the vis-
ltors that they were opposed to such
a proceeding. Speaker Cannon made
, the poor excuse that if the house
. passed Bach a measure the senate
might talk It to death. But neither
he nor the house is responsible for
what the senate does or refuses to
do though he la doubtless right in
his prediction. He also feared that
"your tariff commission would tarn
; Itself into a debating school. Just as
we do here, and that there would be
a majority and a minority report,"
in which conjecture the speaker Is
right again. But the real reason
v why be is against the proposition Is
that he wanta to let the tariff en
" tlrely alone. It suits him, and those
he serves, Terr well as It 1b.
'Mr. Payne was opposed to any
commission "on the heels of a finan
cial panic and on the eve of a presi
dential campaign." In other words:
' "Don't atlr up that horrible mon
ster at all, Just now, nor until we
see whether we can keep in or not
, We have troubles enough, the panic
la particular, for which as a party
we have no explanation, and any in
vestigation and discussion of the
tariff at this time would bo expose
its injustice and iniquity that we
would probably be beaten next fall
We want to divert the people's at
tention from the tariff as much as
possible, and to try to placate them
will promise tariff revision next year
A platform promise is not to be taken
seriously by politicians." Mr. Payne
only thought, and did not say this,
bathe did say: "You would not ask
a committee of congress to undertake
a tariff revision at each a time, yet
how much more disturbing it would
be to have a commission holding pub
lic hearings on the tariff at this
1 time," which amounts to about the
ame thing. He added that "when
. it shall be best for the interests of
, the American people to undertake a
revision of the tariff, that 1b the time
when I shall favor a revision." This
also needs to be construed and ln-
terpreted. Substitute "trusts and In
terests" for "the American people,"
and you get Mr. Payne's real mean-
" ing.
, The high protective tariff, whether
' the McKlnley or the Dlngley tariff,
: has needed revision, so far as the
. Interests of the American people are
- concerned, from the hour of its en
actment, for It was enacted in the
Interest not of the people but of the
' trusts and interests, and men like
Cannon and Payne, who are always
faithful servitors of the trusts, and
Interests, will never and do not in
tend ever to revise the tariff in the
Interest of the American people.
