If the manufacturer takes the contract at a price competitive with European bidders. it means that he must lower wages in his plant and lower other costs. The result of this is that his workmen and those dealing with him must. because of their lowered income. reduce their standard of living. This tends to lower the American standard of living and brings it down to the standard of living of people in European or Asiatic countries. I do not believe this Is proper. I believe it is the duty of every elected representative to support. maintain. and improve the standard of living of all American citizens.
