FLETCHER'S TARIFF POSITION

In the course of his remarks on the proposed emery
ency tariff Senator Fletcher offered some observations
which illustrate very clearly the difference between the
statesman and the politician. The senator knows that
there is considerable sentiment in Florida in favor of
getting into the grab game. As politician, his natural
impulse would be to The votes of those who feel
that way about it. But as a statesman with the pres
en and future interests of his stale and country at heart
1t is his duty TO vote in accordance with his convictions
Here are the senator words on that subject
