I was under a misapprehension then. I personally feel as though we have to have a quota system on imports in this country. I believe in it. We have had entirely too much interference on the part of the activities of the Tariff Commission by the State Department. The State Department is the Department that has blocked tariff raises in instances where we needed them sadly. I have in mind several instances in my own district. in the rubbermanufacturing field. for instance. where they * have recommended time and time again very sharp increases in the tariff on rubber footwear.
