BRISTOW ON RUBBER
Senator Says Speaker Cannon
Is a. Poor Judge.

topeka. Kan, July 19.-Senator Joseph
[. Bristow in a speech here this after
noon pronounced Speaker Cannon poor
judge of rubber.
Speaker Cannon at Burlingame yester-
day, replying to former speech by Sena-
tor Brstow, said the Senator had either
"wilfully or knowingly or ignorantly' mis-
represented the facts when he said that the
increased duty on manufactured rubber
had resulted in 1amentable decrease in
the inportations of that commodity.
''Mr Cannon" said Mr.. Bristow this
afternoon. "forgets that there is rubber
and rubber. When he says that the in
creased duties on manufa aetured rubber did
not result in decrease in Importation he
would seem to refer only to hard rubber,
the kind that is sometimes used in making
rules. Let the Speaker look up the rub
Der question and he will find that there
are several kinds of elastic or soft rubber
to which my statements apply exactly.
II am told that Speaker Cannon said he
did not know that Senator Aldrich organ
ize6 a trust. In my Winfield address l set
forth facts as contained in official docu-
ments, i'll ''Poors Manual and in THE
wall Street Journal" which are considered
reliable authority by every business man
in this country. Whether or not Senator
Aldricli is guilty of technical violation of
the statutes do not know. 1t is the duty
Of the Attorney General of the United
States to investigate violations of the Sher-
man antitrust law. But ! do know that
he is guilty of violation of political decency.
of political honesty
1T would have been better taste for
Speaker Cannon to demand that his COM
mittee of Representatives stand by the
House tariff schedule than to ask them to
stand for the AIdrich schedule. And then
that Cannon should come to Kansas to de-
fend the tariff bill and the men who die
