WOMEN WILL SHARE IN
PARTY SAYS WILL HAYS
Republican Chairman Says Riepubli-
cans viii Give Labor a
"Souare Deal"

New York. Dec. "A method by
which labor may acquire an interest in
the business to which it gives its ef-
forts, federal regulation of industry as
opposed to government ownership and
a system of taxation which will not
kill business initiative, were named
amonk the national planks of the Rep
ublican party last night in an address
by Will H. Hays, chairman OF the ma
tional Republican committee, Mr..
Hays spoke at a banquet given by the
Republican women's executive com.
mittee OF New York state TO him and
Mrs John Glover Smith. chairman of
the Womens division of the national
committee.
Mr. Hays opened his address with
an assurance that the Republican par
ty proposes to recognize the women
voters as on an equity IN every res
pect with their men colleagues, and
entitled to a ,ppoportionate share in the
control and direction of the party. He
declared that the Republican party
stood for full political self-determina-
tion and held to no hard and fast set
of rules. Turning to reconstruction
problems, he dealt first with business
which, he said, must be treated with
an appreciation of it's fundamental
Importance, and not as a demagogue's
shuttlecock." He continued:
The business men of the country
are entitled to every consideration,
including the right to run their
own business. Taxes which kill in
itiative must not be levied There
should be large inheritance tax
on the very large inheritances.
The Republican party from its incept-
ion has stood against undue federaliza.
ion of industries and activities. There
must be strong federal regulation but
not government ownership. The rail
road problem will be solved and solved
fairly, with provision for Just
return on real investment and with
reasonable assurance for essential
and extensions. We
are against pateralism in government
and we are against that form of peda-
gogic paternalism which has develop
ed recently in this country
In regard to labor, Mr.. Hayes declar.
ou 'lltt the economic SITUATION was
simply matter of Roosevelt's Square
deal. ITO that end" he said, I'VE
must develop reasonable method for
honest and efficient labor to acquire
an interest in the business to which
labor is expected to give its best eff.
forts. Pending this development an
equilibrium between production and
wages must be established F."
In concluding his remarks the Re. |.
chairman maintained that the |
recent special session of Congress had
saved the nation nearly billion dol. /
lars and that this alone would warrant
IN overwhelmingly Republican victory
next year"
