There are hundreds of citizens in my own town engaged today in the granite industry. and 4t is likely to be wholly destroyed if rough granite can be brought in free of duty. Senators must be familiar with the wages that are paid abroad and that are paid here in quarrying stone. The wages paid to expert quarrymen are very large. I remember meeting an immigrant inspector in New England two or three years ago who said he had met two stonecutters from Wales. coming from Canada into the United States. They said they were stonecutters who had left Wales for Canada. and they had left Canada for Barre. Vt.. where they intended to go to work.
