CONGRESS WADE GOOD CAMPAIGN
 PROMISES
Chairman Republican Con- gressionaI Committee Sounds Keynote of
 Coming Election
By Assoelated Press

Columbus, O., June 10.-Sound- ing the keynote of the coming re- publican congressional campaign throughout the nation, Congressman s. D. Fess of Ohio, chairman of the republican national congressional committee and senatorial candidate, tonight declared the republican con gress has made good on every one of the platform pledges of 1920, and that republican congressional candi- dates will face the voters this fall on an affirmative platform. :" The address was made before the Buck eye Republican club.
 "This campaign will be aggres- sive and not defensive, because we are going before the country with record of constructive legislation ac- complished, which is the greatest and most constructive ever pnt. through by any previous Congress in the history of the nation. We have nothing to hide or be ashamed Of, he declared.
 Asserting that much which Con gress has done has been of interna- tional significance, dealing with fun damental economic problems, both national and international, he said the republican party has decided to go before the voters with the record and undertake the task of educating them or the real meaning and sig nificance of what has been accom- plished."
 MT Tess continued in part:
 'The problems to be solved by the Congress during the past two years were ready made for the new admin istration. They were created by the mistakes of the preceding adminfs- tration. That Is. they were made for ard not by us as republican con- gressmen,
 Reduce Living Costs
 "As legislators we have faced and made good on the problem of reduc- ing the cost of living, cost of gov ernment and the taxation burden on the citizenry of America. We have. through the adoption of the federal budget system. established a per manent safeguard against furthar extravaganee such as characterized the government in the preceding ad- ministration. We have arranged to finance the federal government by 
 arranged to carry immense special governmental financial burdens and yet have reduced the burder of taxa tion.
 We have, taken steps to fund the immense foreign debt which grew out of loans to the allied nations during the war. This is of immense sig nificance, as it means we have pro- vided the financing of these vast ob- legations. Without these debts hav- ing been funded the United States could not have collected the interest upon the debts As it is the Congress- has placed these foreign debts upon a basis whereby they can be ff- nanced by international bankers so that the United States finds them available in it's governmental finanz- cial operations. Had these debts not been funded by the Congress it would have meant they were practi- cally due bill and not available for banking use. The funding also removes the foreign debts from the realm of politics and makes them Straight matter of finance"

not significant by themselves. 1T Is
believed that production has suHefeu
