Our Tariff System.
There Is general accpiicscence In our
present tariff rysteni as a national pol
i"i'. I he lit st rcfjiiis'tc to our- prosper
ity is tho eo-itin ? ty r.nd stability of
litis economic pol.cy. Nothing could ho
'more i.nwiso thaji lo disturb the busi
ness intone sts^of the couaulry by any
general Uriji/ rhange at this time.
Doubt, apprehension, uncertainly aro
cxa.tly wijat v. e most wish to avoid m
tlsc interest of our commercial and ma?
t ' r ;il well-being. Our experience in tho
past lias shown that sweeping revisions
uf the tariff are apt to produco condi
tions closely approaching panic In tho
business world, Yet it is not only pos
sible, but eminently desirable, to com
bine with the stability of our econo:nio
system a supplementary system of re
ciprocal benefit and obligation with
other nations,. Such reciprocity" is an
Incident and ro.su It of the firm estab
lishment and preservation of our pres
ent economic policy. It was especially
provided for in the present tariff law.
Itroclprof ity Is best, treated as tho
handmaiden of protection. Our, first
duty is to roe that the protection
granted by the tarlflLJn ever/ case
where it is needed' is maintained, end
that reciprocity lie sought for so far as
it can safely be done without injury to
our home industries. Just how fa- /I1I3
is must be determined according to tho
individual care, remcnibcring always
that every application of our tariff pal
icy to linnet our shining national needs
must be conditional upon the card nai
f " t that the duties must never bo re
duced below the jotit that will- cover
the difference between the labor cost
here and abroad. The well-being of tho
wage-worker Is ? prime, consideration
of our entire policy of economic legis
lation.
Subject to ft} is proviso. of tho proper
protection necessary to our Industrial
well-being at ho?oe, <lw> nri>?e+{??4 ? <?$
reciprocity mi'st command our hearty
support. The phenomenal growth of
expo 1 1 trade emphasizes tho rrreimy of
the need for widcf markets and for a
liberal policy in dealing with foreign
nations. Whatever Is merely petty and
vexr.tious in the way of hade restric
