For years the Congress of the United States has helped almost every industry in the land. Through tariff legislation the manufacturing industries have been enabled to Increase their prices for their products by millions of dollars. Through Immigrant lawsand I voted for them allwe have kept out the undesirable farming element and have thereby reduced competition and kept up the price of labor. Through the Adamson lawand I voted for thatwe further increased the price of wages. Through the enactment of the EschCummins lawfor which I did not votewe gave the railroads of the country a guaranteed income and virtually instructed the Interstate Commerce Commission to increase the freight rates. and that has given an increase of price to all the products of the land.
