none of bis rights had been violated
the state department declined to do
so.

the tariff is in accordance with expres

and other Democratic leaders that
while reductions in some "cases will
be immediate, the general benefits will
not be apparent at once. Even though
the tariff laws might bring many im
ports into this coutnry at low rates
or free of duty, the evils of price fix

nations in retraint of trade might, in

fruits of tariff reform.
