Contrary to earlier fears, it becomes increasingly likely that if any tariff bill is enacted into law by the present Congress in the U.S., either at this session or the next, it will be enacted in a form that will not too flagrantly assault the nostrils of mankind. The record of the Democratic-Progressive coalition in the Senate thus far, while marked by some lapses, seems a sufficient guaranty that the final draft will bear little resemblance to the charter of piracy which issued from the House, and may even represent an improvement over the existing law.
