REPUBLICAN TARIFF
BACKED BY PARTY.
CHAIRMAN DECLARES
Adams Says Country Placed
Party in Power to Put the
Measures Into Laws.

Washington. July chairman Johr
r. Adams Of the republican national
committee Sunday night issued state
ment denying that the republican ma.
tional organization has issued publicity
directed against some particular meth
cd of tariff making proposed by re
publicans"
A statement to that effect which
has recently appeared in the public
press. Mr.. Adams said, was based "on
a misconception Of the purport of the
article published which referred to or
ganizations under democratic and non
protective auspices which have sought
to confuse the situation and delay or
prevent the enactment Of a tariff law
by the present congress"
Declaring that in November, 1920.
the people Of the United States had
given their Endorsement to the
straight declaration of the republican
party regarding its tariff policy, the
statement added:
The republican organization would
be rerrpant to its duty if ii did not in
slst. on behalf of the millions of re-
publicans who placed the representa-
tlves OF our party in control of ma
tional affairs, upon the prompt and
consistent fulfillment Of the just ex-
pectations of the American people rela-
tive to the enactment of republican
protective tariff law

turned in and secured some long wOot
and boards from near by. In the cabir
was a fireplace and there we started
roaring fire.
Our first concern was to get Mr.

had failed to bring his overcoat ano
gloves and he had remained steadily
at his post driving the car, while we
were sehltered by our wraps from the
winds that swept over the mountain.
Coy and Warm in Cabin
In the cabin we found it cozy and
warm. We kept the fire going but as
the snow piled up outside and the wind
increased in fury we wondered whether
we were going to be marooned there.
There was q little feeling of anxiety.
None of us said anything about that,
however.
After about two hours of a heavy
snowfall. the wind died down and the
clouds rolled away so we could see some
distance. Our chauffeur went out and
inspected the roads and said he thought
we could make the trip back SO we
all climbed into the big car and started

really enjoyed every minute of it.
