Michigan's condemnation of Ne

Michigan's condemnation of New
serryism gives impetus to the demand
sor reopening of the case against
Truman H. Newberry, and for his re-
moval from the United States senate.
Senator Townsend, Republican, who
shampioned Newberry and sought to
defend his support of his colleague,
has been eliminated from public life,
and former Governor Ferris, a Demo
crat, who made the issue Of Newber-
yyfsm paramount in the Michigan
campaign has been elected in his
stead.
Michigan has set an example which,
1T Is believed, the United States SEN
ate will be bound to emulate. The
state which suffered from the dis
grace of Newberryism has done what
II could to cleanse its name and re-
store its fame. The United States
senate has not yet wiped out the blot
which its vote to seat Newberry left
en- its record. The senate can now
hardly refuse to do for its own repu-
tation what Michigan has done for it's
good name.

REVOLT EXPECTED ON
y SHIP SUBSIDY BILL

In the face Of the country's verdict
against the Republican congress and
the Republican administration, re
turned by the voters November 7, the
president has made good his promise
to urge the passage OF the ship bonus
bill. which contemplates the sale of
the governments merchant marine
for $2.S00.O00. 900 less than It cost and
the bestowal of s75O000,O0O in subsi.
dies on its purchasers. A special ses-
sion of congress is to be called for
November 20, It is officially announc-
ed, that the ship bonus bill may be
rushed to enactment. if possible, be-
fore March 4, 1928
The evil principle upon which the
Republican prohteers' tariff law is
predicated is the foundation of the
ship bonus bill. The latter, like the
former, has for it's purpose-and i'm
minds of its advocates has for its JUS
tification also-the granting of public
funds to private interests under the
color of comforting a public benefit.
1t is believed that many Republican
senators who are to confront the vot-
ers in 1924 and Republican represent
atives who narrowly escaped with
their political lifes November will
not be obedient followers of President
Harding in passing the ship bonus bill
as they were in enacting the profit
eers' tariff bill If the president has
not learned anything from the cleo
tions 1t is felt that most of the Re-
publican congressman have derived a
salutary lesson from Il and are not
likely to forget it within the short
space of thirteen days.
President Harding will find the mar
shaling of enough votes to pass his
pet measure in the special session or
the regular session beginning next
month difficult task. it is predicted.
1t is expected that instead of a quick
disposal of the bill. the president may
be met in the senate by demand for
an investigation of the auspices un-
der which the ship bonus scheme was
conceived.

HIGH PRICES AND @.
o. p. PANIC CONTINUE

Americans are just now receiving a
painful demonstration of the falacy of
the Republican claim that high prices
an increase in the cost of living
shall always be accepted as the effici-
ent cause of prosperity. The whole
philosophy of a Republican tariff is
that the people can put money into
their pockets by taxing themselves;
that the larger the prices they have
to pay for what they consume the
more sure they are to have the where
withal to pay.
The cost of living is at a higher
level than it was a year ago. All the
prices the consumer must pay are
higher by some eight or ten per cent.
Prosperity should be almost at the
zenith, If it grows with the rise in
prices in accordance with the Repub-
lican formula. The public is well
aware, however, that the wage work
ers, the farmers, the small business
man, the great mass of Americans
whose only income is their salaries.
are no more prosperous today than
on the same day and date in 1921.
Bankruptcies and commercial fail
ures are as numerous as they have
been at any time since the Republi-
cans took charge of the government
The prices of agricultural products
received by the producers are the
only prices that have not scared un-
der the stimulus of the Republican
prescription. Even these products,
when they have left the farmers
hands and are sold to the consumer
as manufactured commodities, are
dearer than they were a year ago.
The Republican tariffs-two of them
have done nothing for agriculture
and a good deal to it's detriment, not
ably by increasing the cost of every
thing that agriculturists require.

ing at the rate of 1928, 400, 900 month
under the Harding administration,
according TO the official figures of the
department of commerce. Between
June 30, 1921, mad June 80, 1922, the
shrinksse OF this country's export
trade amounted in money to s2,745,-
900, 900.
The aggregate foreign trade of the
United States in/1921 was $10,17O. .000-
900. of which s6,516, ,0OO,O0 was ex-
ports and 1864. 100000 was imports.
In 1922 the volume had fallen to s2,-
60S,0OO,O00 for imports and sS.771 .OOO,-
600 for exports, so that the nations
favorable balance of trade for the
year ended last June was only little
more than $1,000, ,OOO, 900.
Operations of the Fordney- Met Cum
Der tariff law. which is prohibitive in
its effects on certain imports, is ex-
pected to produce an even worse
showing in 1923 than that revealed by
the figures for 1922 Curtailment of
imports, against which this new tar
III act will initiate, is believed GER
tain to reduce the volume of exports,
since the outside worlds inability to
sell in this country will prevent for
eign buying here on the scale of the
last several years.
AS there is a surplus of most of
the cereal crops of the United States
this excess of domestic production
over domestic consumption must find
a market abroad. Decrease in foreign
demand for these surpluses will react
on prices in this country and the ag-
ricultural interests are facing a new
era of depression.
Republican control of national af-
fairs has been accompanied by a stea-
dy decline in the volume of commerce
with the outside world and this has
been reflected in domestic conditions.
The industrial and agricultural panic
of the last eighteen months has been
solely a Republican calamity.
