DEMOS RESORT TO
REPUBLICAN ACT
TO AID IN STRESS
Charles E. Hughes Tells Ia
coma Citizens How Vree-
land Law Carried Them
Over Thin Ice.
TAKE UP G. o. P. POLICY
Party Under Wilson Compelled
in Part to Change Position
To Protect Citizens

Tacoma, Wash, Aug. 15.-Charles
E. Hughes, republican presidential
nominee, told an audience in the Ia
coma stadium today that he would
not shring from war in enforcing
American rights abroad.
Mr.. Hughes read the democratic
program of 1912, declaring for the
protection of American rights abroad.
Il want that made real" the nominee
said. II do not think in making that
real that we encounter the danger OF
war. l would not shrink from it if
we did in performing the obvious
duty"
Mr.. Hughes confined his remarks
almost wholly to what he termed the
need for a protective tariff. Il pro-
pose wise tariff without abuses" he
said, "but frankly tariff to build up
and maintain American industries"
Mr.. Hughes reviewed democratic
tariff legislation and the democratic
platform plank of 1912 relating to the
tariff.
AS to Cost OF Living.
"Our opponents said they would re-
duce the cost of living he said. BE
hold the result.
Through an unfortunate develop
ment in the republican party, which
is now happily healed, our opponents
got into power, and they did not re-
duce the cost of living. We don't
propose that the shortcomings of the
administration with respect to the
protection of American industries
shall be forgotten. They want to for
get them. They think that the
European war, like charity, covers a
multitude of sins"
Mr.. Hughes referred to statement
issued by Secretary McAdoo soon
after the war started in 1914, in which
it was announced that $500, 100000 in
emergency currency was available to
relieve financial stress.
To Still the Fear.
"Our opponents, had to resort to a
republican measure of precaution, the
Vreeland law" he said, "to still the
fear that their policy had engendered
among the people of this country. 1t
was that republican measure that took
us through critical period"
Reverting to the tariff, Mr.. Hughes
asked, why the democratic party
wanted a tariff commission.
do they want commission to
frame a tariff for revenue only!" he
asked. Il want a tariff commission
for the purpose of carrying out the
protective principle, not block it"
The antirdumping provision of the
pending revenue bill was discussed by
MIR. Hughes. II have had some ex-
perience with statutes" he said, "and
if that statute works it will be tre-
menduous surprise to me-"

noon for Seattle to fill speaking en-

Wilson Not to Go
On Speaking Tour

Washington, Aug. l5.-After con-

dent would make no speaking tour,
but probably would accept invitations

Mr.. Mccormick explained the presi-

Bile with the dignity of office of presi-
dent.

impression that Mr.. Wilson would

ORDER FOR TROOPS
TO MOVE SUSPENDED
Guards Will be Held in State
Camps Pending Result of
Railroad Wage Crisis.
IS MEASURE OF CAUTION

Washington Aug. l5.-Orders for
the remaining mobilzed units of the
National Guard to proceed to the
border have been suspended by the
War department No official expla-
nation has been made, but it is known
that the delicacy of the railroad strike
situation,has been the moving consid-
sration. Hs--
The suspension Of the orders to the
troops, which would have moved
some 25,000 men to the border, should
not be taken as an indication that the
presidents negotiations with the
railroad brotherhoods and the rail-
road managers have taken an un-
favorable turn, but is a measure OF
caution. 1t is considered highly un-
desirable that all the remaining
guardsmen should be moved to the
border while there was a possibility
of railroad strike in which they
might be called upon to preserve Or
der throughout some of the states.
The suspension of the orders pre-
vents the immediate movement OF the
troops from Kentucky, Ohio and Yer
mont, and the movement of all other
modified units which were to have
gone forward as soon as they were
equipped.
1t is clear the suspension is not a
revocation of the orders, and that il
the strike situation clears up the
troops will be moved to the border.
The official explanation of the
change at the War department is that
difficulties of transportation and
equipment developed and made a de-
lay necessary.
Suggested by Funston.
A telegram from Major General
Funston, made public by the War de-
partment,, disclosed that the general
recommended the suspension of the
orders. His telegram follows:
'In view of the possibility of gen.
eral railroad strike, desire to call
the attention of the War department
to difficulties that will follow in main
tanning food supplies, not only OF
troops in this department, but OF the
civilian population as well. These
border states produce but little food
stuff except cattle.
"In view of foregoing, l recommend
that the National Guard organizations
which are about to start for border
stations be retained in their mobiliza-
ton camps until such time as the
question of general strike shall have
been determined"
