C. The American people have been treated to an avalanche of falsehoods about the new tarift, uttered by the same journalists and politicians who, when the increased tariffs of the 1922 law were put into clYect. declared that they would kill our foreign trade. create unemployment, reduce wages and increase the cost of living -every one of which predictions has been given the lie by events. Facta About Tnritt Here are a few facts which should be more generally known. of the 25.795 itrms in the old tariff law, 2170 were left unchanged. ”DVuiires were increased on only 890 articles; decreases were made in 235 items. _ Duties collected on all items in the tariff schedules. both dutiable and free, will not average over 16 per cent, as compared with nearly 14 per cent under the old tariff law, 23 ‘per cent under the McKinley law, 21 per cent under the Wilson law, 26 per cent under the Wingley law, and 19 m-r cunt under the Payne-Aldrich law. No tariff laws passed in forty rears have h‘ll luw:-r average (Mitt rates except the Underwood law and tho Fordney-MrCumber law. The percentage of our imports en- tering free of duty will be about the same under the new law as under the law it suycnetlod. ahout C4 m" cent. Of our total imports in 19'29, valued at $4,400,000,000, commodities to the value of $2,668,400,000 came in duty free. These imports have recently declined owine to tremolo-u ment in the United States. They will expand_with the restoration of em: ployment in competitive industries in this country our new tariff is in- tended to help. The Bureau of Busi- ness Conditions. a branch of the Alexander Hamilton Institute, a non. inartisan institution, from which-all the above fieures are obtained, there- fore says: "There is consequently lit- tle danger that the export trade of the United States will suffer mater- ially from the new law." V Study of Exports A study of our exports shows that the world in general is buying from us now only what it is necessary to buy, and that our exports already an over many tariff walls. and are sub. jected tn some 50 varieties of dig. criminations as compared with do- mestic productions in these countries. The heavy outcry against the new .tariff law is due to the fact that American international finttneiers and industrialists have built or acquired some two thousand factories in for- eign cheap labor markets and ob. ject to having competitive conditions in the United Statcs equalized by tariffs to the extent of the difterenee in labor costs. Foreign cheap labor importation, account for all the un- employment existing in the United States today. The new taritt law represents an effort to correct that condition in the interests of 'the American farmer and wage earner and the American producer gener- ally. Thursday, August T, 1930
