AND SMITH PAYNE, BURNS NEW YORK - (Official City, State and County Newspaper) That Mellon Letter Mellon’s denunciation of the Haugen bill is being read with considerable amusement by the of North Dakota. the estimation of the very efficient secretary of the treasury is not in; fact a subsidy under our pro- tective tariff. If it is, he fails to diseuss this angle of the controversy. The New York Times, an admirer of Mr. Mellon’s Fifth Ave. Bldg. ~ financial sagacity and able administration of his | office, sees in the letter an attempt to save the Cool- idge administration, but being a free trade new: paper of the ultra-conservative type it cannot res taking this very logical dig at the defender of high tariff walls for the eastern manufacturers and very low tariff walls for the western farmer, whose plight . is really serious: “Mr. Mellon makes no reference to one contention of the farmers who clamor for the Haugen bill. They say that the Repub- lican policy is by tariff legislation to give a subsidy to manufacturers. This, instead of helping the farmers, hurts them. They as- sert that if the government is in the busi- ness of dealing out sub: s, it is their turn to demand and receive one. As a high-tariff Republican, Secretary Mellon does not find it discreet to refer to this matter. Yet it is plain that, on this subject, the farmers could turn his own argument against him. He objects that the Haugen bill is intended to raise prices to American consumers. That, also, is the intent and often the effect of protective duties. The secretary thinks it unsound and well-nigh outrageous to favor a plan which will enable foreigners to ‘secure American commodities at prices be- low the American leyel.’ But precisely that is done under the operation of our tariff laws, with their supplementary legislation permitting American corporations to com- bine for the export trade, so as to sell abroad cheaper than at home. More will be heard of this after the Haugen bill fails, as ae ee 1 AM Noy eid Sale i Unless the Republican party revises the tariff |. in its present form it ‘ihust fail. } If the farmers of the middle west do not cool off, | they will be | tempted to ask Secretary Mel- lon and President Coolidge ugly questions j about the p: } that out of rotective tariff, and to declare its own mouth the administra- tion stands condemned.” Practically everything Mr. Mellon says about the | two wo ‘Haugen bill is sound reasoning and adds nothing | full new to the debate upon agricultural relief. + $7.20 | seeks to give the farmer the 20) tection as is accorded the great industries of the The bill same modicum of pro- east.
