Tariffs and Wages in Cotton Industry Debate
Thomas Scanlon argues tariff protection does not raise wages in cotton mills. He cites 1905 and 1907 census figures showing weekly wages around $6 to $7 for men and $5 to $6 for women, and notes protected industries face competition from nonprotected peers. He contends natural resource wealth and supply demand set wages, not tariffs, urging workers to rethink tariff praise.
