+. Hughes tonight replied to state
ments in President Wilson'S Cincin-
natl speech concerning preparations
to meet commercial competition after
the war
MIR. Hughes told an audience here
that the administration views re
minded him Of its views ON prepared
ness in December, 1914, which were
afterward changed; that ne consid-
cred the anti-dumpiug provision OF
the revenue bill, intended to meet the
situation, as 'farcical,' and worse
than useless" to protect American
workmen: and that even if the per
centage Of exports of commodities to
supply armies was small, it required
but very little "to contract or destroy
the prosperity of the country
The nominee addressed an audience
that cheered him repeatedly He told
them that, as he had been while gov
ernor Of New York, he was now and
should be in the future; that he was
willing to stand or fall by what he
believed to be right

When you intusc this abnormal
demand TO which | nave referred,
you have given stimulus which an

and when you have policy carried
into effect, such as was involved in
the Underwood bill, the contraction
resulting from that policy although
perhaps a small percentage, was
enough to send hundreds and thou Il

us take account of what is necessary

doing it, not to give benefits to few
but to provide a basis for prosperity /
