REVIVAL OF
PROTECTION
Hearst Says It Is Time to Pay Atten
ton to Matters on This Side
of the
Ocean.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Serv1ce.1
NEW YORK, March 19.-In letter
reproduced in his New York Ameri-
can today, William Randolph Hearst
springs one of the first surprises OF
the 1920 national campaign by calling
for a revival of protection as the chief
political issue.
The letter, from the many times
democratic candidate for office, in
part follows:
Editor of the New York Ameri-
can:
Il hope you can find occasion to
write some editorials on the princi-
pie of protection and ask what has De
come of this great American pr1ncl-
pie in the general confusion of head
long taxation.
Have we lost sight Of the fact that
in this post-bellum period, when ev-
erything is to be reconstructed on
new basis-that the principle Of pro-
lection is one of the great means to
enable our country to reconstruct its
industries without the disastrous
trade interference of foreign nations,
without the invasion, the trade war,
is likely to be levelled at us?
"Now this great American principle
of protection will not only protect
American industries in this serious
reconstruction period, in this period
of trade war and commercial invasion.
1t will raise a large amount OF IN
come and relieve some Of the direct
tax burdens that now fall heavily up
on the people.
"a republican congress is about to
COME in. 1t is looking for issues. Is it
going to neglect the great issue with
which the republican party has identi-
fled itself for many years?
There are many democrats who
believe in protection and who in this
| critical state of our national existence
would think more Of principles hene-
fetal to the nation, than they would
of any partisan consideration.
"The principle Of protection, too,
would fit in well with the republican
party's policy of naturalization.
at is time that true Americans
stopped maudlin and hysterical SEN
timentality over the conditions Of 9TH
er nations, which are coming TO be
better off than this nation.
"The question Of having the United
States excluded from the market OF
the great part Of the world by British
4! decree is question which must be
fearlessly and intelligently met and
competently solved.
"As an initial step toward the solu-
.. ton Of this problem, let the great
American principle Of protection be
, vigorously revived and put into active
operation in this country.
Let all true Americans stand ready
to. cor slider their country first and
their party afterward.

Ono closed Valve In a Main Would
Have Prevented Water Famine
Of Last Sunday Night
and Future Danger.
TELLS
Why Plant Was Planned without
Means Of Separating TWO pumps,
He is Not Old Enough
to Know.

That one valve properly placed
would have prevented the water
famine of Keokuk Sunday night ana
will prevent similar occurrence IN
the future was admitted by Superln-
tendent Seaman, of the water works
company, this morning.
Questioning brought out the fact
that there are two mains coming up
town from the pumping plant, as
stated by Mr.. Seaman at the Com
mercial club meeting last evening.
One runs up the bluff direct and
the other runs first toward the river
and then down Water street and up
the bluff farther down. Both make
a sort of loop past the pumping sta
ton Just outside its northern wall.
For Lack of a Valve.
Both pumps are connected to this
loop. running uptown in both direc-
lions originally.
A valve in the loop main, beside
the plant wall would permit the
main to be closed Mere. The other
night, such valve closed would
have been between the broken pipe
and the engine next the river which
could have sent O. lot OF water up
only about third as
much as the other main up the bluff
direct would carry.
Still, the eight inch main would
have made enough pressure to get
water out of faucets and hydrants,
and the fire truck could have pumped
from the fire hydrants enough for
the biggest fire.
The Real Mystery.
Why the plant was built without
any means of cutting the lines be-
tween the two pumps, and why the
latter were connected tandem, In
stead of separately, Superintendent
Seaman does not know, as he was
probably not born when the Keokuk
water works station was planned and
built.
Yesterday, the mayor wrote him
asking that something be done to
make recurrence of the experience
of Sunday night impossible in the
future He appeared at conference
in the city hall this morning. and just
before this official conference began,
he answered the questions Of The
Gate City as above.
May Send Engineer.
He said he has already taken up
the matter with the company officers
in the east. The fact that one valve
installed will cure the trouble of
Sunday night throws some light on
the statement of Superintendent
Seaman to the Commercial club that
he does not much approve the idea
of building a standpipe, for reserve
supply of water and pressure.
He telegraphed the president of
the company this morning after the
conference with the city council, ask.
ing that an engineer be sent here by
the company to do whatever Is re-
CURED.
1t is presumed this engineer will
decide, whether to go to the expense
of putting the valve in the main
there at the station.
