IMS News Behind The News By Paul Mallon Washington, March 30 Mr. Roosevelt's request for power to cut the tariff another 60 per cent (making 75 per cent in all from the 1934 rates) fell on hard con gressional soil. Some not alone the re publicans, say it represents practically free trade ana nowhere near the actual dif ference be Paul Halloa tween the cost of production at home and abroad which is what a good tariff rate should be. I know at least two highly placed democratic senators who are displeased. Labor is begin ning to grumble also. A. F. of L.'s Matthew -Woll came out against it in a statement which Is supposed to be a forerunner of labor opposition. There cer tainly will be a fight and the outcome is by no seund means foretellable yet. The president called for it as one of "the kit of tools" he needs to handle postwar trade, but the republicans are calling it a monkeywrench. Without doubt it contrasts strangely with some of the other tools he asked for, particularly the proposed balloonish world bank, which Is to lend money for the develop ment of industry abroad. Under our own foreign loan and rehabilitation program we gave money, for example, to finance the building of a steel plant in Brazil. For another, during the AAA days when we restricted cotton production, the cotton growing industry in Bra zil and other countries grew rapidly. THIS competition is such that at a recentl congressional hearing there was testimony that cotton, can be produced in Brazil, Mexico and other South American countries cheaper than In the United States. For others, we have put money into Mexicd to finance mineral In dustries which can compete with us. Indeed, the ujw deal favors Industrialism of the world. Now the new deal argument, used by Mr. Roosevelt, is the familiar one heard often from his new commerce secre'ary,. Wallace, that as we are a cred itor country and all the world owes us (Indeed far moro than It can ever repay) the tariff theory must be abandoned at least 79 per cent abandoned But the tools in the kit he has asked for would make us even more of a creditor nation. In short his whole policy is a spend-lend program for foreign trade the giving of money to the bank to enable them to build more competing industries and the giving of money to the sta bilization fund to support a fic titious value for prospective foreign buying nations, and cut ting the tariff generally so ev erything can get into this coun try. We cannot avoid winding up out of ' such a proposition with every nation owing us even more than it does now. e e e WOULD anyone then think th omtturA nf tha flnnl 9S per cent of the tariff would help our creditor position? or would we not then realize our creditor danger had merely been dou bled? Certainly the more we spend and lend the more they owe us arid the money comes from our people. There are so many problems to foreign trade that the vast ness of the subject Is bc.vond human grasp, at least bevond mine. But, in any case, the new world we are coming Into will Involve wholly different prob lems than those of oldtlme tariff walls. Think, for Instance, of Chi nese labor costs and the Rus nians' government production system, which can value any thing at any price. Both of these were not involved seri ously before, but they may be come more important than trade with Britain and Canada (the two nations the president mentioned.
