PROMISE TO REDUCE THE
COST OF LIVING
NOT KEPT.

Our opponents promised to
reduce the cost of living. This
they have failed to do: but they
did reduce the opportunities of
making a living. Let US not for
get the conditions that existed
In this country under the new
tariff prior to the outbreak of
the war. Production had de-
creased. business was languish-
ing. new enterprises were not
undertaken. instead of expan-
sion there was curtailment. and
our streets we're filed with the
unemployed. What ground Is
there for expecting better con-
ditions when the unhealthy
stimulus of the war has spent
its force and our Industries and
working-men are exposed to the
competition of an energized Eu-
rope?
1t is plain that we must have
protective upbui.ding policies.
