A CONFIDENTIAL LETTER Dear Madam: Do you wear stockings? this tariff bill The price of stockings—yours, and those of the chil- dren—-will inerease at least a third if the Payne bill be comes a law. The cheaper the grade of stockings the bigger will be the increase in price. There four grades of imported stockings. On the first grade the tariff bill adds 21 per cent. On the second grade it adds 17 per cent. On the third grade it adds 15 per cent, and on the fourth grade the highest priced stockings-—it adds 11 per cent Last year there were imported into the United States 2,500,000 dozen pairs of the cheaper grade of stockings Of the second grade there were imported 1,052,000 dozen pairs. Of the third grade there were imported 965,000 dozen pairs. Of the fourth grade there were imported 107,541 dozen pairs The Payne tariff bill seeks to keep out all these im ported stockings and make you pay a tax to the National Association of Hosiery and Underwear (the stocking trust) big enough to enable t! this number of domestic (trust made) stockings.
