products from every section of the
country. With their markets seized by
foreign producers, they have been with
out the means to buy, and as a result
houses are vacant, retail merchants
have lost large per cent of their
trade and property heretofore used
for the handling and packing of fish
has greatly deteriorated in value.
Undoubtedly the farmer of the mid
die west who voted for free trade
thought he would buy his salt macker-
all and smoked herring at little less
price per pound. but he has not done
so. He injured his own market for
his products without helping himself.
If those middle west farmers could go
to Gloucester and see the effects of
the free trade policy, they would agree
with me that the only wise theory
upon which to enact tariff law is
that of Live and let live'
I'VE cannot find profitable markets
for our fish unless the farmers and the
manufacturers of this country are pros
porous also. have no particular pref
udice against the fishermen of Nova
Scotia or Newfoundland. l do have a
very decided prejudice in favor of
the American producer. whether he be
a fisherman, lumberman. a farmer,
a manufacturer. or miner. want
every legitimate American industry to
prosper. ano, therefore. my tariff poll
cy is summed up in the phrase. live

While in attendance at n meeting
OF the National Chamber of Commerce

gave expression to his views and told
the story OF the serious injury to the
deep-sea fishing industry of the North
Atlantic coast as a result of the enact.
ment of the Democratic tariff law.
Il know of only two men in Glou.
cester who are still advocates of free
trade" said Mr.. Davis. "They are inn

believe 1t best to buy where they can
buy the cheapest, rgardless of the in.

can afford to take, the Canadian has
taken considerable portion OF our
market from the American fisherman
without the American customer buying
his fish at even n fraction of cent

THE American buyer of fish pays
his money to a resident OF Nova SEQ
tia or Newfoundland and that money
is spent for the purchase of supplies
and the maintenance of homes in the

fallen upon American business, and al

NO NEW "CRISIS" SEEN
IN SUBMARINE WAR
Significant Silence, However,
Supplants Pitiless Publicity
in Washington

WASHINGTON. Nov. "a - German
American relations over a long string OF
recent submarine boat attacks are running
over with possibilities OF trouble which
however, have not yet reached the point
OF new "criss."
The few officials OF the Administration
who would talk today took that view OF
the situation Significant silence, how
ever, has nearly supplanted pitiless pub
licity. The State Department officially
holds that American afidavits. plus Ber-
lin replies TO submarine Inquiries "have
not made the situation any more serious
than Il has been for some time past. but
the hint Is strong that officials are appre-
hensiye that trouble may be only step
ahead It is all Intangible" however
Secretary OF State Lansing set new
rule today Of talking with no one outside
his official associates, even for his conf
Dental guidance, on submarine questions.
Both he and President Wilson are keeping
what Is perhaps closer watch on present
developments than they have done at any
time for many months,
Meantime. the few officials who win talk
and who know whereof they speak-say
they scent no actual crisis" at the present
moment. But they frankly admit that GER
tain unofficial indications are that Ger
many has oyerstepped, and will continue to
do SO. on her submarine warfare and on
her pledges.
