Weeks on Tariff Policy and the Wilson Bill Debate
Senator Weeks argues the Wilson tariff plan shifts cost to consumers, raises questions about protection and domestic competition, and cites wage and price data from Britain and Germany to challenge the bill’s claimed benefits. He champions full capacity in manufacturing to steady labor and advocates selling surplus abroad to sustain trade.
