We believe in nationalism at least once in a while. and while possibly the World War has brought us into such international relations that we must go further than we should like. yet I am sure that the American people will never sanction any law which places in the hands of any league. be it the League of Nations or an economic leaguecall it what you willthe power to say what the United States shall do so far as her tariff policies are concerned. You here proposed that Europe write our tariff rates for us. We have a different standard pf living. we have a different people. and it is just as reasonable to ask that the President call another conference the purpose of which is to strike down our restrictive immigration laws. The American wage earner. the American farmer. and the American manufacturer demand an American protective tariff. We are told that the rule which makes this bill in order Is not a " gag" rule. that debate will be free and open and that every opportunity has been given to permit consideration of this measure.
