However. today when the "poor have become rich" and endanger our own economy. I feel it is time to change rules and regulations. I believe it is the Congress primary duty to look out for the welfare of its own Nation. European and Asiatic nations already have the advantages of considerable lower wages. and since we do not have adequate tariff protection it is hard to understand why we should further jeopardize our textile industry by giving an 81/2 cents cut per pound price concession on export cotton. Nobody minds to face competition as long as the basic principles are sound. That is the life (or spice) of business.
