matters of great importance.
Three of these last decisions are
especially significant and far-reaching.

AN OPEN LETTER.
New York, June;
FRANK A. \ ANDERLIP,
Prest. National (‘ity Bank,
New York city,
Dear Sir:
i was much interested in your
marks of a few days ago concerning
the present business depresalou. i
agree with you as to the bad
effect upon business of so much nag-
ging by our law-makers and their com-
mittees and commissions appointed.
with malice aforbthought. to violate, in
spirit, at least. the constitutkmal pro-
tection of American citizens against
searches and seizures. Of course. this
sort of worrying leads to uncertainty
among some large corporations who
are put through the third degree of
this intimidating and blackmaiiing
process; but. is it not. true that the
great bulk of our business is than by
smaller corporations and by individ-
uals who are, as yet, quite unscathed
by,polliical bandits and guerrillas?
Is not the full explanation of our
trouble elsewhere? Will not any pro
duoer produce in response to a reason-
able demand for his product; and is It
not the process of production which
employs people and distributes wages
and salaries. the circulation of which
is the basis of all business? is not all
business. in fact. merely the outflow of
the active pay-roll; and is it not true
that if the demand for products were
large the pay-roll would be large bus-
iness. therefore, large, irrespective of
rany governmentnl interference short
of arbitrary refusal of liberty to pro-
duce? it seems to me that even a big
corporation. just out ou.ball from the
alectlonate embrace of some govern-
ment squeezer, would make haste to
fill from its plant every order it could
rake in, if for nothing else. at least for
the purpose of securing ammunition
with which to fight for its life against
our practically constitutionless gov-
erument.
Upon second thought, is not the lack
of orders upon the country's produ-
cers about the only thing, short of
battle. murder, or sudden death. that
can cut our pay-roll and damn our bus-
mess?
.‘\'ow ,again, does not the call upon
our producers depend. for healthy
steadiness, almost entirely upon the
practical equality of domestic supply
to domestic demand? And, Is it not
true, therefore that any general in
crease of supply over demand in the
domestic market is always followedby
failing values and by general business
depression? Then, does It not follow,
as night the u}. that the Wilson Law,
by cutting down the- -tarth defense
against foreign imports and practical-
ly merging the domestic supply with
the surplus. dumping supplies of the
entire world outside, is the real cause

future "by anticipatory underblddins.
That is, they lodge with American
merchants stars» to d'urlllli goods in
every way up to the American stand-
ard for at least such and such a per-
centage below the lowest American
bid, The enormous diflerence betwist
American and foreign pay-rolls makes
this method of clubbing American bus-
iness to death easily possible. It is not
hard to imagine tin-pleat of this an-
tlcipatory underbiddlng upon the cur.
rent of orders flowing to American pro
ducers.‘ ‘i‘oreign ppoduclng capacity
is swelling from hour to hour
and even now the potential
foreign surplus of all kinds of goods
is great enough to meet the denltnd
of our entire American market week-
ened as it constantly must be by an
ever-diminishing pay-roll.
i know that pedple point to contin-
ued high prices of goods at retail to
prove that the country Is not over-
suppiled. That fact, however, cuts no
ice at this stage (1 the matter. For
the competitive battle has thus far
been largely confined to our producers
on the one hand and our wholesale
importers and Jobbcrs and the retail
on the other. The enormous profit
from substituting foreign products at
an average cost of one dollar for Am-
erican products. in our market at an
average out of five fiollars. at prices
which thus far are little below thore
necessary to maintain American pro»
duction even at. itd’ niche:- cost, is be
ing divided between“ wholesaler
importers and jobbers and the retail
dealers. The retailers have not as yet
found such a gen poverty among
the wage earners of the country that
goods are a glut on their builds to such
an extent that prices must be. gener-
ally sacrificed. This stage, however.
will come a little later, unless the
wholesalers and jobbcrs. in their com
petition for the trade of the retailers.
cut their profits so deeply as to lead
them to diminish their imports for the
purpose of maintaining prices. This
they are likely to do, according to the
experience of other countries where
