From the Philadelphia Press.
IL would be unwise to unsettie vast and
abundant prosperity at home by entering
on tariff revision now 70 secure some
special market when we cannot meet our
own demands; but when revision comes,
maximum and minimum tariff Is true

attempt To continue the campaign for a
real subsidy bill on the original plans.
something that will be worth while after
all these years OF insidiOus manipulation
for a project that has utterly failed 10
arouse any enthusiasm except among It's
promoters.
We believe that the Republican leaders
realize that It would be disastrous for
them to answer the demand Of the people
for a reduction Of taxes by imposing new
ones. To refuse to reduce the tariff and
then 10 give another industry free access
20 the Federal Treasury would arouse
storm Of criticism, and would also cost
many members Of Congress their seats.
