1H REPUBLICAN TARIFF COSTING INDIANA MILLIONS State Farmers Alone Suffer $4,825,000 Every Year, Congress Told. By Rosroe B. Fleming:, Time* Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, May 14.—Indiana citizens are losing: $118,640,000 yearly through operations of the Republican high tariff, according to a tabulation by the Fair Tariff League of America, placed in the Congressional Record by Senator Robinson of Arkansas. The report shows residents of fourteen States alone, including Indiana, lose a total of $14,406,000,000 yearly. Figures Explained The figures represent the difference between increased prices received by the people of these States, including the farmers, and the increased prices they have to pay for tariff-protected articles, the statement said. Indiana, Illinois and Ohio were three States, cited especially in the report, the three being representative of the whole United States. The Farmers The report shows the tariffs on wool and sugar beats, increase farm prices about $859,000. Against this, the farmers lose $4,825,000 in increased prices, because of the agricultural schedules and the rest of the State pays $10,761,000 in increased prices. When to these are added the manufacturers’ schedules, Indiana consumers lose $103,912,000 on the latter alone, of which the farmers lose $33,107,000 and the city population loses $70,805,000. Against this loss to Indiana is to be offset the tariff profits of Indiana stockholders in her steel, glassware, china and other highly protected industries, it was added, but as many of these are owned by great eastern capitalists and represented by Wall Street securities that estimates of the gain to Indiana residents are impossible to approximate.
