UTAH SENATOR

BURTON ALSO HITS MEASURE
Says II Will Not Bring Any Lower
Cost of Living, But Will
Increase Burdens
BURTON ALSO HITS MEASURE

Washington. July 21.-Asserting that
a foreign lobby" had influenced the
Democrats in framing the Underwood
Simmons tariff bill. Senator Smoot.
Republican member of the finance
committee, delivered a vigorous attack
on the measure today. He pictured
mills shut down, workmen unemployed,
investors ruined and an era of general
financial and industrial depression as
the result of the leveling of the tariff
walls European nations, he declared,
were not SO much TO be feared as com
petitors as were the nations of the
orient.
There has been lobby here in
behalf OF foreign manufacturers" he
charged, such as never before has
been Witnessed in the history of the
nation and they got even more than
they asked for The Italian chamber
Of commerce C-%New York asked for
certain reductions and the Democrats
nearly in every case have given them
more than they asked for
7 The senator assailed the increase i'm
the free list especially with reference
to sugar, wool pig iron and textiles.
He charged the sugar industry OF
Hawaii and Porto Rico will be ruined
through the consequent benefits of the
so-called sugar trust and that China,
with great steel plants. would capture
the steel business Of the western hem
isphere.
'All the world knows how this
country has suffered as the result of
the Wilson tariff law in 1896" he con-
tinued but the average rate OF duty
now is over two per cent lower than
the case unde- the last Democratic
tarin, when the business Of the nation
was paralyzed, and three million
thrown out of employment"
He charged that the Democrats were
Inconsistent in the framing of the
measure, calling attention TO the fact
that wheat corn. cornmeal, potatoes.
and virtually every form Of meat go
on the free list and certain food prod
ucts peculiar 20 the south remain un-
der the tariff tax
Rice peanuts and bananas grown
i'm the south he charged were on the
dutiable list. They are used by poor
people generally He concluded by de-
claring the question Of the future Will

THEY have abolished the death
penalty in Washington. Now
one person may murder as many
others as he wishes and the
worst he can fear from the law
is life imprisonment with always
the hope and possibility OF re-
gaining his liberty year or two
after sentence is pronounced, by
escape, parole or pardon. 1t is
a statistical fact that there are
10000 murders committed in
the United States every year,
more than in all the nations OF
Europe and Canada combined,
and the percentage OF convict
ions in this country is the small
est. AS crime in this country
increases, legislatures are con
stantly making it easier for the
criminals to escape their just
punishment.
