pursuits as shall be specified in the permit on the contrary to raise duties from the line of maxi myro revenue by les importations reduces re ve this principle has been ke I 1 T in view throughout throng hout the bill in the of duties to determine just where the line of difference in coat falls Is of course in many instances difficult betit may be safely assumed when importation in any line of commodities is large and increasing and no good reason appearing why things campot as well bg produced here thatis uch duties are below the c oat line and that the ad is with the foreign producer it the production dimini sheds or suspended altogether in this country it becomes proof tive that the is too great to be overcome without readjustment of in such cases however but few articles there has been no hesitance hesi tane in I 1 preparing this bill to cuties raise ed as to permit these industries to take their place abreast with others in the auntry where are light and increasing it antly be assumed that duties are quite high enough and in many cases may be safely reduced and in case an industry is of such a nature an to per anit trusts and combinations of any kind raisa prices above the level bf prices or profits in other industries then it becomes important that the cost line should be closely adhere 1 to and that has been the aim in this bi if in industries where trusts or combinations are sup to bavo aurb it is less important of awer 0 apply this rule timidly PrIC 1116 A are regulates regu latea free competition in aurli cases ul d er well known principles I 1 in such all industries of birse should stana on equal footing and in no instance should the of the government be used to llevat one abod another in other words our industrial system must bacon ast a whole in ak aich all who pric 1 i PIC in it share its benefits 1 beth er they are engaged in one in duttry vr another one principle of great importance has been kept con scantly in view and that is that the line which makes the d if ference in th cost of producing pro ducin commodities here and abroad in otter words the line of fair competition Is always and necessarily above the point of daxl m ill reu conse quent to re li d uce on any commodity be ivr the 1 no of difference in cost waith as 8 bated Is the line of even tion until the line of maximum revenue Is passed necessarily increases revenues I
