right here that this idea of settling
things on cost alone is all nonsense.
You must not think l am joking about
this thing, but there is a joke about
it, and the joke is this. l have no
power whatsoever. The tariff board
has no powers. There is really nc
such thing as a tariff board. The
law says that for certain purposes
the president may employ such per.
sons as he sees fit. l lam one of such
persons. That is ALL" daughter
and applause.)
And it was because of this board,
even the chairman of which treats as
a joke, that President Taft vetoed the
efforts of both branches of Congress
to reduce the cost of living.
Protection Boosts Prices.
The United States is not the only
nation suffering from excessive pro.
lection. The rigid protective policy
of Germany, though not nearly so
drastic as that Of the United States,
has so increased the cost of living as
to compel the most severe economies
on the part of the wage earners. The
families of the masses cannot afford
the luxury of meat Horses, and
even dogs, are killed in large num-
bers for consumption as food.
Wages are not increasing in Ger
many, nor are labor conditions being
improved. In the last five years
statistical returns show that, making
due allowance for increase in popula-
ton, that employment of females in
industrial occupations where male
labor is to that extent supplemented,
has increased over IS per cent.
Kenyon Progressive Reactionary.
The only prominent Republican
progressive who persists in declaring
that Taft ought to succeed himself as
President is Senator Kenyon of Iowa.
This senator, it will be recalled, was
one Of the famous family Republican
trust busters" and as such drew
down one of the famous family of
Republican trust busters" and as
such drew down one of the famous
fees which Mr.. Wickersham dis
bursed with such a lavish hand.
Could it be that the fact that Sentor
Kenyon was on the Taft payroll has
anything to do with his regularity?
The Voice of Morgan.
investigations hurt business, be-
walls the New York Sun. 'rLet bust
ness proceed unhampered," is its
cry. The Sun is now the organ of j.
Pierpont Morgan ct al, and it is en-
tirely possible that its wailing means
nothing more than that Morgan and
his gang hate to be disturbed in their
pillage of the people.
