NEW ENGLAND AGAINST TARIFF

H Cox, governor Of Massachusetts,
has called upon the other New Eng

condemns the suggested duties OF
35 cents per barrel on crude oil and
25 cents on fuel oil, and expressions

the price OF coal and gasoline in New
England Governor Cox adds that

from other states be memoriaIzed
This action is being taken despite
the fact that whatever wealth New
England has is due TO a protective
tariff measure. Its factories have
been protected, we in the South have
paid more for cotton and woolen cloth

New England ought 10 be generous

Tariff is a local issue. There have
been times when the sugar industry
OF Louisiana needed help and help
was forthcoming Now the oil in

has always stood for protection should
not disappoint the oil men Of the
Southwest whose energy and devotion
TO business has supplied the world
with petroleum and its products.
