Tariff bill to make farmer one of victims
William Philip Simms argues that the Hawley Smoot tariff will harm American farmers and trigger global retaliation. He notes shifts in export patterns from 1900 to 1930, showing a decline in agricultural exports and rising manufactured goods trade, with foreign pushback evident in early 1930. He warns lawmakers and business leaders that American farmers face greater risk as retaliation and domestic production rise.
