NO TARIFF ISSUES
BETWEEN PARTIES
Given Little Attention In Platforms
Democrats Declare for Revenue
and Republicans for Protection.


WASHINGTON, July 3.-The tariff,
time honored as an issue for presiden-
tial campaigns, has lost its place this
year
The slight reference given to the
tariff in both party platforms, caused
the comment in Washington that it
is being removed from the realm of
politics, and left in care of the tariff
commission, which is supposed to
make a scientific study of foreign
trade problems on non-partisan basis
The Democratic tariff plank is q
reaffirmation of the Democratic poll
icy of tariff for revenue only, with a
declaration in favor of basing future
tariffs on research of the govern
ment experts. The platform of 7,00o
words devotes 40 words to the issue
which ut one time was the chief
topic of campaign speeches.
The Republicans reaffirmed then
beIiefsin the protective policy, but
stated that unsettled conditions made
present changes 1nadvisable. Viii
liam Allen White, a member of the
subcommittee which drafted the
platform, declared the tariff plank
was meant to eliminate the tariff
from political dispute.
In decfsled contrast are the tariff
planks of former campaigns. -Four
years ago the Democrats and Republi
cans divided roo words in praising anC
condemning the Democratic Underwood
tariff law, and in announcing tht
future plans of revision up and down.
Before the Republicans went GU
of power in 1912, the party tendency
was in favor of slight revision down
ward, something contrary to pre-
vious custom. Then Democratic con
crosses did not cut tariffs to the ex
tent expected.
