I understood the Senator to say the manufacturers came before the committee and declared they did not want any protection. Is it possible that shoes are not manufactured to any great extent in foreign countries? If so. then what becomes of the competition with the pauper labor of Europe? How do we explain the fact that here are people with free trade as to hides. leather. shoes. who come before the committee and say. "We do not need any protection and do not want any" ? How have they managed to escape the deadly competition with the pauper labor of Europe?
