meni, are possibly only when the ma
lions of all continents are restored TO
stable order and normal relationship.
Turning To diplomatic problems. the
president urgently recommended early
enactment OF the permanent tariff and
foreign debt refunding bills. He also
announced that later on he would
make some recommendations about re-
newed consideration OF tax program,
involving further reductions and the
abolition of "hindering burdens" He
also suggested consideration by con
gress Of an amendment TO the consti
| tuition TO end the issue of non-taxable
bonds.
With regard 10 the merchant marine,
Mr.. Harding said II was the purpose To
present plan which "contemplates
no greater draft on the public treasury
and which, though yet too crude to of,
fer 1t today, gives such promise of ex.
banding our merchant marine that II
will argue Its own approval"

operative marketing program as
| means OF assisting In the relief of

suggested by the executive. He also
told the congress that IL should give

industry and highway construction &c

and restore the balance between city
and country.
