In the first place. the Republican
party, in it's 1920 platform, gave no
pledge for the Inauguration Of any
definite tariff program. II subordinated

spirit ~ vicious hatred of the Wilson
administration and appeals 10 all the
elements Of hostile opposition, espe-
cially those of foreign extraction.
