ABOUT TARIFF COMMISSION.
With remarkable facility, demo
cratic leaders change front on im
portant governmental questions
and endeavor to delude the Ameri
can people into the notion that
they have always been advocates
of the doctrines to the support of
which they have been driven by
public t pinion. Preparedness is
one. instance and creation of a
tariff commission is another.
After refusing to make adequate
appropriations for the national de
fense and after declaring that the
military branch of the government
had not been neglected, the ad
ministration suddenly reverses its
attitude and proclaims its intent
ion to make preparedness an issue.
If they are seeking for some one
to quarrel with on that question,
they must quarrel with their own
past record. Now they announce
an intention to make the creation
of a tariff commission an issue.
They forget that their own party
has been the only opponent of a
tariff commission and that such
a commission would be inexistence
but for their negative votes.
The democratic party, with con
trol of both houses of congress
and the presidency, passed a tariff
act in 1913. It had every oppor
tunity to place in that act a pro
vision for a tariff commission of
any form or kind it might choose.
The democratic congress not only
failed to incorporate in that law
any provision for a tariff commis
sion but when, on September 6,
1913, Senator Works of California,
republican, offered an amendment
providing for a tariff commission,
that amendment was defeated,
every vote for it being cast by a
republican and every vote against
it cast by a' democrat. Later in
the same day Senator Poindexter
of Washington, progressive re
publican, offered a different amend
ment for the creation of a tariff
commission but it also was de
feated. The roll call shows that
every vote for the amendment was
cast by a republican and every
vote against it was cast by a demo
crat.
Not one of the democratic sena
tors offered a word of objection to
the form or language of the
amendment. The opposition was
to a tariff commission in any form.
Senator John Sharp Williams, of
Mississippi, voiced what was- ap
parently the opinion of the demo
crats of the senate when he said:
"Mr. President, I wish to ex
press briefly my opposition to a
tariff commission. I think, in
short meter, it is simply protec
tion reduced to a science. There
fore, I do not see how democrats
can support it.”
The unsatisfactory consequences
of their tariff legislation may have
convinced them that scientific pro
tection would help restore the
broken or ruined industries of this
country, but their belated ac
knowledgment of their past ig
norance will not inspire confidence
in their future actions. A tariff
commission created by them would
be formed for the purpose of de
feating rather than establishing
protection to American labor and
capital.
The democratic party, both in
its platform and its performances,
is against either protection or a
tariff commission. The republi
can party has always stood for
protection and in the tariff act of
1909 made an initial step in the
direction of a tariff commission by
creating a tariff board which the
democratic party discontinued.
There is need for a tariff com
mission as a board of intelligent
ascertainment, but not clothed
wit!) such powers as may hamper,
retard and destroy general busi
ness in this country. The mem
bers of such a commission should
not be subservient to the presi
dent or any other one man. The
commission should not have
powers which could be used to
favor one section of the country
or to reward friends or punish
enemies. The powers of the board
should be definitely prescribed and
it should submit its reports to con
gress and through congress to the
pe >ple of the country.

Under date of August 16, demo
cratic papers carried dispatches
saying that “President Woodrow
Wilson today began the task of
mapping out his program for na
tional defense.” There was re
markable truth in that word“be
gan.’’ Only a short while ago
President Wilson was declaring
that there has been no neglect of
national defense. The platform
on which Wilson was elected was
silent on preparedness. The re
publican platform was drawn by
men who had both the knowledge
to understand national needs ana
the courage to say what they be
lieved. They wrote these words:
“We believe in the maintenance
of an adequate navy for the na
tional defense and we condemn
the action of the democratic house
of representatives in refusing to
authorize the construction of battle
ships.’’
On August 16, 1915, when he
began planning for national de
fense, President Wilson paid a
magnificent tribute to the wisdom,
foresight and courage of the men
who wrote the republican platform
in .Tune, 191‘2.
!
In the first two months of the
present fiscal year, the administra
tion has incurred a deficit of $29,
217,775. The net balance in the
treasury on August 30th, was $52,
723,742, as compared with a bal
ance of $127,211,118 on the same
date two years ago when republi
can revenue laws and appropria
tions were in effect.
