The Finance Committee bill proposes to grant them a reward and increased profits on their sugar under the increased sugar rate. at the expense of the American breakfast table. Protect American labor! What American labor? Here and there a family of Americans may be engaged in this work. but the laborers are largely of an alien race. of whom a large number are women and children. Protect American labor! The alien labor that is a menace to American labor is the only labor in America that can expect to derive any benefit out of this proposed increased sugar duty. Protect Hawaiian labor! Why. the Hawaiian does not labor in the beet fields of his native land.
