The best evidence that the flexible
tariff had not accomplished what i
was intended, he said, was the fact
that the last campaign was fought
on the need of adjusting inequalities
of the tariff between agriculture and
industry.
Borah asserted the question
"which will be fought out hrre unti
the snows fall" is whether the indus
trial rates are justified.
"Does the president approve of
them?" he asked. "Does he approve
of the duties on cement, pig iron and
those products which will increase
the profits of the steel companies? Is
he satisfied with the agricultural
duties, and finally, is he satisfied that
this bill meets the promises of the
last campaign?"
Discussing the farm rates, Borah
said the agricultural interests of the
country "want to know whether they
