SATURDAY, MARCH 19, 1921 Take The Tariff Out Of Politics The uselessness of the tariff as an issue in the presidential campaign was acknowledged last summer by the mere leaving of it out of the platforms of both parties. The con- gressional lineup on tariff questions is not now deterimined by party affil- jation. Obviously the tariff is not a political question, a fact that should be recognized in the treatment that it is to receive in the present ad- ministration. Never- will a better chance arise for rescuing this ques- &tion of economic importance from the demoralizing effect of being a party issue. Nobody who stands in the ranks of the producers wishes for the adop- tion of a policy of free trade by Am- erica. Nobody wishes to see the "element of competition with the cheap | labor of the old world brought in to complicate still more that already difficult situation in our industrial life. Nobody wishes to see the life of the working people of the Unit- ed States reduced to the level of that __ of the working people of Europe, and nobody thinks for a minute that Am- erican industry could keep going under the wage scale of America and the price scale of the old world. We must have a protective tariff, and only a disinterested, unprejudiced, honest, non-partisan consideration of American industrial conditions will enable the law makers in Wash- ington to find just where it shall be applied, where it shall be lifted, what the rates shall be, and how to make ' the tariff serve the whole people of the United States, instead of a few powerful interests. This is the time to take the tariff question out of politics, the time for the two great political parties to dis- cover some other issue upon which to submit their fortunes to the peo- ple in another election. There are plenty of questions which are open to honest differences of opinions, plenty of policies that might be made the basis of the appeal for votes. There are few questions that are as easily made to stir the selfish enthusiasm of certain groups of peo- ple as the tariff, few that are so in- differently understood, few that are therefore so safe for the purposes of the political campaign use, few that can be made to be so long lived as that of the protective tariff and the - tariff for revenue only. But there are many better issues, that should be kept before the public mind, many questions upon which it is important that there should be an intelligent It would be a telling evidence of the desire of President Harding to exercise his power of statesmanship, rather than to serve the particular interests of his party, should he seek to put the 'question of the readjustment of the tariff on a plane above politics and recommend it to the serious con- sideration of Congress with a view to settlement instead of with the in- tention of keeping it alive to serve in the future as a political issue. Remember how you cheered on : Armistice Day? Paying your income tax is evidence of real patriotism. The words "peace and victory" will haye a holier meaning when you have paid your income tax.
