ENADlNG LIE ISSUE

Son.in-law Longworth, congressman
from Cincinnati by the grace Of Boss
Cox, has found the political ground
rather shaky this year on account
of his support OF Cannon and the
tariff bill. AS many of his constitu-
ents believe that the high tariff has
made higa prices, he mas tried to di-
vert their attention from the hign
cost Of living to more economical
way of preparing the high priced
food. He is, therefore, distributing
thousands OF the Agricultural depart
ment cook book, which tells how 10
make chuck steak tas:e like tender
loin Whether this eyading Of the
real issue will turn the political tide
the Longworth way WIN soon be
known, so 1t is needless to surmise.
When it comes to the tariff issue,
why do tSe standpat Republicans al
ways resort TO subterfuge and try to
shoe the voters from the facts? Mr..
Roosevelt is an expert in turning
sharp political corners, and he has
probably advised his son-inlaw what
to do
