 EXPLANATORY NOTES. 
 
 1. "N. e." means "not enumerated" or named in the Tariff law, but where it 
 pears with a rate it indicates that rate was fixed by a Decision or ruHng of the 
 neral Appraisers, Courts, or Treasury Department, and as far as possible such 
 :es have been given. 
 
 2. "N. s. p. f." means "not specially provided for," and what is known as a 
 Itch all" or "basket clause" governing some general class where an item not named 
 
 the Tariff may fall. 
 
 3. Where no rate is given it indicates the item was not specified by name in 
 It law. 
 
 4. Text in italics indicates the law of 1909 and corresponding matter in roman 
 the law of 1913, where a material change is made in either law. 
 
 5. The "%" means "per cent, ad valorem," or rate based on the value of the 
 tide. 
 
 6. A Ton = 2240 lbs. ; and all weights for Tariff purposes are based on the 
 oirdupois standard. 
 
 7. Cuban products, under both laws, receive a 20% reduction in the rate on 
 ery article ; Philippine products under law of 1909 came in Free with the excep- 
 m of Rice, under the law of 1913 all products come in Free; Porto Rican and 
 awaiian products are shipped into the U. S. Free of duty. 
 
 8. Law of Aug. 5, 1909, in effect on and after Aug. 6, 1909; Law of Oct. 3, 
 13, in effect on and after Oct. 4, 1913. As respects their general provisions. 
 
 9. Wherever the Underwood rates have been changed by the laws of April 27 
 d Sept. 8, 1916, the new rates are inserted and covered with a footnote which also 
 ves the original rate of the Underwood law of Oct. 3, 1913.

 years ended Jr.ne 30, 1910 to 1917, are used 
 in the following figures obtained from reports 
 of the U. S. Department of Commerce and 
 Treasury Department. 
 
 Free imports during the four years under

 517,244, as compared with $3,401,478,897 undtr 
 Protection from 1910-1913. This is an increase.- 
 of $2,101,038,347 in free imports during the 
 first four years of the Underwood Democratic 
 Tariff. While dutiable imports for the 1910- 
 1913 Protective period amounted to $3,148,967,- 
 806, as against $3,922,816,846 for the 1914- 
 1917 Free-Trade period; a decrease of $226,- 
 150,900 in dutiable imports vinder Free-Trade. 
 As the Underwood Democratic Tariff trans- 
 ferred various competitive imports to the free 
 list, which were Protected by a duty under the 
 Payne-AIdrich Tariff, the real test is shown in 
 the following figures for all imports: 
 
 Total imports during the four years under 
 Free-Trade, 1914-1917, amounted to $8,425,- 
 334,090, as compared with $6,550,446,703 under 
 Protection from 1910-1913; an in_cr£a££ of 
 $1,874,887,387 in imports from foreign coun- 
 tries during the first four years o'f the Under- 
 wood Democratic Tariff, three years of which 
 were under war restrictions with the Under- 
 wood rate averaging around 5 per cent. 
 
 Customs receipts, indicating the revenue pro- 
 ducing power of a Tariff, amounted to $939,- 
 934,843 during the Free-Trade period from 
 1914-1917, as compared with $1,278,393,584 
 under Protection from 1910-1913; or a falling 
 off of $.^38,438,741 in revenue from imports for 
 the Underwood period, 1914-1917. 
 
 Our export trade amounted to $8,464,511,477 
 under Protection from 1910-1913, as compared 
 with $15,760,457,463 under the Free-Trade and 
 war period from 1914-1917; an increase of 
 $7,295,945,986 in exports for the 1914-1917 
 period entirely due to the unprecedented de- 
 mands of the Eurbpean war. 
 
 As a consequence our favorable balance of 
 trade — excess of exports — increased $5,411,058,- 
 599 during the 1914-1917 Free-Trade and war 
 period. 
 
 Our total foreign commerce — imports and ex- 
 ports — under Protection, 1910-1913, amounted 
 to $15,004,958,180 and for the Free-Trade and 
 war period, 1914-1917, it was $24,185,791,553; 
 an increase of $9,180,833,373. 
 
 Cold imports during 1910-1913 amounted to 
 $235,077,443, as compared with $1,709,292,741 
 during the 1914-1917 period; an increase of 
 $1,474,215,298 for the Free-Trade and war 
 period. While gold exports for the 1910-1913 
 period amounted to $276,163,838, as compared 
 with $640,433,450 for the 1914-1917 period; an 
 increase of $364,269,612 for the Free-Trade 
 and war period. 
 
 The condition of our Federal Treasury as 
 shown in ordinary receipts and disbursements 
 of the Government (not including the Panama 
 Canal and the Postal Service) were as fol- 
 lows: 
 
 Total ordinary receipts during the 1910-1913 
 Protection period amounted to $2,792,773,785, 
 as compared with $3,334,824,776 "during the 
 1914-1917 Free-Trade and war period; an in- 
 crease of $542,050,991 in receipts during the 
 Democratic 1914-1917 period by reason of the 
 so-called "war taxes," income and other direct 
 taxes. 
 
 Total ordinary expenditures during the 
 1910-1913 Protection period amounted to $2,- 
 651,173,058, as compared with $3,197,782,305 
 during the 1914-1917 Democratic period; an 
 increase of $546,609,307 in expenses for run-

ORIENTAL COMPETITION. 
 
 Analysis of our trade relations with Japan 
 and other Asiatic countries, under Protection 
 and Free-Trade, 1910-1917. 
 
 Japan, China, and the British East Indies 
 arc the principal countries of Asia trailing with 
 the United States. Wages paid farm and fac- 
 tory lal^or \n those countries are from one-sixth 
 to one-twclflh of the wages paid to correspond- 
 ing labor employed on the farms and in the 
 factories of the United States. Raw material 
 is cheaper and the cost of living is lower than 
 ill .he United States. Those countries have 
 not only Protective Tariffs but since the Euro- 
 pean war opened they have, in some instances, 
 increased their Tariffs; while on the other hand 
 the Tariff on all imports coming into the 
 United States, notwithstanding high ocean 
 freight rates and embargoes, during the nine 
 months ending ]March 31, 1918, was 6.21 per 
 cent. Thus, enormously high ocean freight 
 rates and embargoes on imports during the 
 war are saving us from the full force of this 
 low Tariff competition. \\'ith the low oriental 
 labor cost and oriental Protective Tariffs in 
 force, a return of normal ocean freight rates 
 and the cessation of embargoes on imports the 
 United States can expect still greater competi- 
 tion from these Oriental countries than it is 
 experiencing now under the present Democratic 
 Free-Trade Tariff. 
 
 TRADE WITH ASIA. 
 
 Our trade relations with the principal coun- 
 tries of Asia during the four fiscal years 1914 
 to 1917. inclusive, under the Democratic Free- 
 Trade Tariff as compared with the four fiscal 
 years 1910 to 1913, inclusive, under the Payne- 
 Aldrich Protective Tariff, according to figures 
 of the U. S. Department of Commerce, was as 
 follows: 
 
 Imports from Japan, China, and British East 
 Indies during the 1910-1913 Protection period 
 amounted to $792,804,982, as compared with 
 $1,413,224,100 during the 1914-1917 Free-Trade 
 
 period; an increase of $620,419,118 in imports 
 from those countries during the first four fiscal 
 years of the Underwood Free-Trade Tariff. 
 
 Our exports to Japan, China, and British 
 P^ast Indies during the Protection period of 
 1910-1913 amounted to $306,536,431, as com- 
 pared with $494,598,707 during the Free-Trade 
 period of 1914-1917; an increase of $188,062,- 
 286 in our exports to those covmtries during 
 the first four fiscal years of the Underwood 
 Free-Trade Tariff. 
 
 The trade balance against the United States 
 (excess of imports) for these periods was as 
 follows — during the 1910-1913 Protection period 
 it amounted to $486,268,561, as compared with 
 $918,625,393 during the 1914-1917 Free-Trade 
 period; an increase of $432,356,832, or nearly 
 100 per cent, in a trade balance in favor of 
 Japan, China, and the British East Indies dur- 
 ing the first four years of tlie Underwood 
 Free-Trade Tariff. In other words, while we 
 are buying more than we are selling to them, 
 our payments for the balance to Japan, China, 
 and the British East Indies have nearly doubled 
 during the Free-Trade period. 
 
 Our total commerce (imports and exports) 
 with Japan, China, and the British East Indies 
 during the Protection period of 1910-1913 
 amounted to $1,099,341,403, as compared with 
 $1,907,822,807 during the Free-Trade period 
 of 1914-1917; an increase of $808,481,404 in our 
 merchandise commerce with Japan, China, and 
 the British East Indies during the first four 
 years of the Underwood Free-Trade Tariff. 
 Of this increase 620 millions of dollars was in 
 imports and 188 millions of dollars was in ex- 
 ports; these figures indicate the increasing 
 competition the United States is subject to 
 under a Free-Trade Tariff. Imports of mer- 
 cliandise into the United States from Asiatic 
 countries during the eight years ended June 30, 
 1910-1917, inclusive, four years under Pro- 
 tection and four years under Free-Trade, with 
 the effect of the latter notwithstanding pre- 
 vailing war restrictions, are shown in the fol- 
 lowing table:

 Turkey and Russia are the principal coun- 
 tries in "all other Asia" in the above table. 
 As these two countries are in the war zone, 
 imports from them have been about equal to 
 normal imports during the Protection period. 
 
 JAPAN CHIEF COMPETITOR. 
 
 Japan ranks to-day as the principal manufac- 
 turing country of Asia. Small in area, popula- 
 tion and resources as compared with the 
 United States, but, unlike the United States,

ORIENTAL COMPETITION.

 Japan is stimulating her industrial life with 
 a Protective Tariff and fortifying herself in 
 every way with the future in view. She is 
 to-day in the industrial and economic spotlight 
 of the nations of the world. 
 
 In indicating the industrial development of 
 Japan our commercial attache stationed at 
 Tokio recently transmitted a report on the 
 export trade of Japan for the calendar years 
 1913 and 1917. The figures are not only 
 interesting but significant. For instance, Ja- 
 pan's total export trade in 1917 increased 153 
 per cent, over the year 1913. Of Japan's total 
 exports in 1917, which amounted to $799,- 
 OOS.noo, 83 per cent, or $654,895,000 was 
 
 manufactured products, 11 per cent, was foods, 
 beverages, and tobacco, 5 per cent, was raw 
 materials, the balance miscellaneous items. 
 
 As 83 per cent of Japan's exports are man- 
 ufactured products, it is the class that repre- 
 sents finished or wholly manufactured products 
 that has increased and shows what her factories 
 are doing. Thus, Japan's exports of finished 
 manufactures amounted to $92,180,000 in 1913, 
 as compared with $293,195,000 in 1917; an 
 increase of 318 per cent. 
 
 Complete statistics reported by our commer- 
 cial attache at Tokio giving the exports from 
 Japan for the calendar years 1913 and 1917 
 are as follows:

 The above figures indicate the character of 
 Japan's exports which are going to all coun- 
 tries of the world. Japan's increased export 
 trade is reflected in our increased imports from 
 that country. Therefore, let us now look at 
 the United States and see what Protection has 
 done and what Free-Trade is doing to the 
 United States in its trade with Japan. 
 
 While increasing our commerce with Japan 
 the trade balance against us was reduced under 
 the policy of Protection during the fiscal years 
 1910-1913, inclusive. On the other hand, dur- 
 ing the Free-Trade period of 1914-1917, in- 
 
 clusive, our commerce continued to in- 
 crease while the trade balance against us was 
 not reduced. Thus, during the Payne-Aldrich 
 Protection period the trade balance in favor of 
 Japan was reduced from $44,439,000 in 1910 
 to $33,891,000 in 1913; while under the Free- 
 Trade period the trade balance in favor of 
 Japan increased from $56,150,000 in 1914 to 
 $77,655,000 in 1917. 
 
 The following statistics of the U. S. Depart- 
 ment of Commerce shows our complete mer- 
 chandise commerce with Japan during the eight 
 years ended June 30, 1910 to 1917:

 ORIENTAL COMPETITION. 
 
 Our exports of gold to Japan during the 
 914-1917 Free-Trade period amounted to $111,- 
 32,.Sf)l, as compared with $34,023,879 during 
 he 1910-1913 Protection period; wliile iin- 
 jorts of gold from Japan during tho 1911- 
 1917 period was $27,530,551, as compared with 
 fl0,242,928 during the 1910-1913 period. 
 
 Imports of merchandise from Japan increased 
 fro-n $91,033,000 in 1913 to $208,127,000 in 
 1G17. The year ended June 30. 1913, was the 
 last year of the Paync-Aldrich Protective 
 Tariff and the year ended June 30, 1917, was 
 under the Underwood Free-Trade Tariff with 
 trade restrictions prevailing and acting as war- 
 Protection. Notwithstanding these war condi- 
 tions Japan is getting into the United States 
 markets by reason of the Underwood Free- 
 Trade Tariff. 
 
 This is better illustrated by examining tlie 
 imports from Japan for 1913 and 1917. For 
 instance, imports of brushes from Japan in- 
 creased from $604,490 in 1913 to $1,800,300 in 
 1917; buttons from $42,916 in 1913 to $967,834 
 in 1017: manufactures of bronze from $4,217 
 in 1913 to $463,949 in 1917; refined camphor

 from $10,928 in 1913. to $937,647 in 1917; 
 matting and mats for floors from $806,607 in 
 1013 to $1,427,094 in 1917; musical instru- 
 ments, including phonographs, from $12,328 in 
 1913 to $137,677 in 1917; fish and animal oils 
 from $9,565 in 1913 to $735,557 in 1917; 
 cottons-eed oil from $294 in 1913 to $174,625 
 in 1917; linseed oil from $168 in 1913 to 
 $43,857 in 1917; rapeseed oil from $3,907 in 
 1913 to $495,306 in 1917; soya bean oil from 
 $379,207 in 1913 to $4,623,383 in 1917; wall 
 paper, books, and paper goods of all kinds 
 from $517,403 in 1913 to $1,097,595 in 1917; 
 seeds of all kinds from $32,008 in 1913 to 
 $940,892 in 1917; silk goods, principally woven 
 fabrics, wearing apparel, and laces from $3,- 
 044,029 in 1913 to $11,568,505 in 1917; spices 
 from $54,504 in 1913 to $225,935 in 1917; 
 ftarch from $2,132 in 1913 to $799,775 in 1917; 
 toys and dolls from $302,754 in 1913 to $1,- 
 206,352 in 1917; umbrellas and parasols from 
 $15,473 to $5.5.082 in 1917; vegetables, prin- 
 cipally beans, dried peas, onions, and prepared 
 vegetables from $786,211 in 1913 to $5,935,553 
 in 1917; manufactures of wood, principally 
 baskets of bamboo, furniture, and -lumber from 
 $882,091 in 1913 to $1,071,339 in 1917; and 
 woolen goods from $26,652 in 1913 to $161,792 
 in 1917. 
 
 The above list represents competitive imports 
 from Japan during 1913 and 1917 and shows 
 some large increases, but, to get a more com- 
 prehensive idea of Japan's invasion and foot- 
 hold in the United States markets a glance 
 at the following table of imports into the 
 United States from that country during the 
 eight years ended June 30. 1910 to 1917, four 
 years under the Payne-Aldrich Protective Tariff 
 and four years under the Underwood Free- 
 Trade Tariff, is instructive, interesting, and 
 shows conclusively the necessity of a return to 
 a Protective Tariff for the United States to 
 check Oriental invasion of our domestic mar- 
 ket from that quarter of the world.
