The tariff policies of the 1890-1922 led to the development of
tariff rates that launched the United States on a path that led to
later trade wars. The Republican Party and Porter McCumber took the
lead in promoting these policies, claiming that the tariff would
protect new and struggling industries. In many instances, items
subjected to high tariffs were not in conflict with industries in
the United States. In addition, although the tariff covered
agricultural products, it was not sufficient to halt an
agricultural decline. This work traces the course of U.S. policy
through five tariffs which preceded the Fordney-McCumber tariff of
1922, when the tariff was used for both protection and revenue.
McCumber's economic nationalism combined with his internationalism
in other areas is detailed in the work.
