If we could establish a quota system whereby just enough sugar from offshore areas would come into this country. which if added to our production would keep our supply just about equal to or a little above our demand. and thereby maintain a stable price. I would say. "Yes." The sugar industry could not exist. of course. unless either that were done or we had a tariff. any more than our steel mills or our shoe manufacturers could exist without such protection being afforded them. In fact. no form of manufacture competing with countries having lower wage standards could exist unless protected in that way.
