1.-THE Scholar in Politics"

(From the Congressional Record.)
Mr.. Watson Dem, Ga.)-Mr.
President, returning to my friend the
senior Senator from Massachusetts
(Mr. Lodge), l call attention to the
fact that he stated that the tariff of
1928, which was enacted some time
before Dickens American Notes were
written and previous to his reference
to pauperism, was called the tariff of
denominations" In his correction of
my mistakes as to the date, of the
Walker tariff the Senator from Massa-
chusetts fell into two errors of his
own. What Dickens said about there
being no pauperism in New England
does not occur in his American Notes,
but in a private letter to John For
ster, and the tariff of denominations"
was not in existence when Mr.. Dick
ems in January, 1912, visited Boston.
1t was after that time that the tariff
of the Wing party was passed in 1874;
of course not in January, but after
Mr.. Dickens wrote his letter. The
tariff of denominations" was passed
in 1928, Mr.. President. The compro-
mise tariff of 1888 was in existence
for nine years, carrying it beyond the
time when Mr.. Dickens landed in New
England.

Goldstein Weakens, Though Harding
and Spencer Stand Pat

1t is reported at this writing that
the nomination of the notorious Nat
Goldstein of st. Louis to be collector
Of internal revenue in that city has
been withdrawn at the request of
Goldstein himself.
Goldstein's nomination was spon-
sored by Senator Spencer (Rep., Mo- J.,
who vouched for Goldstein as man
of absolute integrity" This is the
same Senator Spencer who vouched
for Senator Newberry and had charge
Of Newberry's defense in the Senate.
When Goldstein admitted that he
had taken $500 of the Lowden cam
paign money when a candidate for
delegate to the Republican National
Convention of 1920, Governor Lowden
declined to accept his vote. Gov. Low
den now states that Goldstein's eX-
PLANTATION in his testimony before the
Senate Investigating Committee was
absolutely false, and says that he was
afterwards informed that Goldstein's
testimony was given at the sugges-
ton Of Senator Spencer, member of
the Senate Investigating Committee.
Concerning Goldstein's nomination to
be revenue collector, Governor Lowden
says:
'If he was unfit to sit as a delegate
in convention, it is hard to see how he
can be regarded as a fit candidate for
revenue collector"
Concerning this nomination, the
White House said informally that it
neither boasts of nor apologies for
its nominations.
Of those directly concerned with his
appointment as collector, Goldstein
seems to be the only man who realizes
the enormity of the offense against
decency by asking to have his name
withdrawn.

WASHINGTON LETTER

Washington, May 22.--In an effort
to save the Republican Congress at
the polls this fall, the administration
has set Brigadier General "Hell and
Maria" Dawes to work with pencil and
paper to "save" money for campaign
camoufage. Brigadier General Dawes
bears the same relation to the politi-
cal finances of the administration that
Brigadier General Sawyer bears to the
military effulgence.
Last January, President Harding
announced that $136,000,000 had been
saved during the first six months of
the present fiscal year, basing his
claim upon the statement of Brigadier
General Dawes, the Director of the
Budget.

Garner Rebukes Fordney as "Un-
gentlemanly"

Representative Fordney, who re-
ferred to Woodrow Wilson on the
floor of the House as "darned old
fool" is the same Frdney who recently
boosted on the floor that he had
"voted to put Woodrow Wilson in a
hole" a remark later expunged from
the Record as his latest reference
ought to be. The dignity, the man.
ners and the common decency of the
House could be much improved if
Fordney himself were expunged there
from.
His latest exhibition of vulgarian
manners was resented by Represent
alive Garner Dem, Texas, who
among other things said: "That man
(Wilson) is i'll. He lies stricken at
his home yonder. 1t is ungentlemanly

OH reD. hepTeSelIdJlNc D9lio VI
Tennessee, introduced a resolution
asking the President to give some de-
tails Of the alleged savings.
On the 9th of the present month the
report of the Director of the Budget
in response to this resolution was pub
lished in the newspapers, with no no.
tice whatever to Congress as to what
it contained until the members read it
in the newspapers. Like the colored
widow, whose mourning outfit inciud-
ed complete suit of black underwear,
because, as she announced, "when "
mourns, mourns," General Dawes In
his report of savings, alleging re-
duction in expenditures from 1921 of
81 SOC, 100000, shows that "when he
saves he saves"
AS Representative Byrns Of Tonnes
see points out, savings by the admins
tration can only consist of funds which
have not been expended out of the
appropriations previously made by
Congress for governmental purposes
during the fiscal year, and which
Congress believed to be sufficient to
carry on the routine operations of the
government.
He then shows that Congress actu-
ally appropriated 1922, 753,916.74 to
meet deficiencies incurred by the
executive departments for 1922, and
calls attention to letter written by
Secretary Mellon on April IA, stating
that there would have been a large
deficit had he not determined to post
pone payment of some 100000, 900 OF
obligations due until the next fiscal
year.
Concerning the claim of savings
for the ordinary routine of the gov
eminent, Mr.. Byrns says, "a casual
analysis shows that they are plainly
deceptive"
The reduction in ordinary expendi.
lures for routine business of govern.
ment, generally subject to executive
control, in 1922 as compared to 1921
will be in the neighborhood of $907,.
100000, according to General Dawes
report.
Mr.. Byrns points out that in this
statement General Dawes takes credit
for the following reductions:
Army expense, 100000; nava
expenditures, over $192, 100000; ship
ping board, $56,500,000, amounting tt
1861 ,431, 617.16, "thus showing by hi.
own figures" says Mr.. Byrns, "tha-
the actual expenditures have been in
creased rather than decreased"
In 1921 there was an army of ovel
100000 men and a very large navy
and there were also large war hang
overs in 1921 which were dispensed
with in 1922. ut is ridiculous" say!
Mr.. Byrns, "to say that the admins
tration is entitled to take credit fol
its reduction to something like peace
time basis"
One interesting phase of Genera
Dawes report is that it shows thai
the President has increased the ex
penditures Of his own office over what
they were in 1921. 1t should be re
membered, too, as MIR. Byrns points
out, that the appropriations in 1927
were made by a Republican Congress
"a reduction of taxes" says Mr.
Byrns, sis the only test as to whether
or not there has been a reduction Of
expenditures. The plain fact is thai
there has been no reduction of take!
by the Congress. except that Of thu
big trusts and the multi-millionaireI
of the country. The vast body of thu
taxpayers has been given no relic.

were closed at which the minority

bers were present or were invited to

mittee received Mr.. du Pont, who was

cratic members were permitted to be

Concerning these big interests and
their attitude toward their own gov
eminent, Senator King said:
* have charged, and charge again,
with respect to this chemical sched-
ule, one which affects practically ev-
cry industry and manufacturing con-
Germ Of the country, because the arti-
cles are of fundamental or primary
character and constitute the bases Of
thousands of finished products, that
this chemical schedule has been drawn
in the interest of the chemical produc-
ers of the United States, in order that
they may perpetuate monopolies which
they have organized and extort from
the people hundreds of millions of dol
lars annually, as they did during the
nrnDresS of the war n
"fn the discussion of these sched-
ules, ! shall point to articles where
the manufacturers in the United
States charged our own government
and TIL people during the war 1000
and 5000 and 1000 per cent above pre-
war prices. There was absolutely no
limit to their greed and their cupidity
and their avarice. They would rob and
plumber their own government as they
would rob and did rob the American
people, and many of the chemical
manufacturers in the United States
are seeking by this bill to perpetuate
their power and opportunity to plum
der the American people in the future
as they plundered them during the
war"

the speech of Senator King (Dem.,

and brilliant argument on the chem

as to win the admiration of his Sem

Two Opinions of Woodrow Wilson

By Joseph w. Fordney (Rep., Mich.)
multi-millionarie Chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee of the
House: "In 1920 I made this state
ment that the then President (Mr.
Wilson, was going to change his
boarding house on the fourth day of
March, and he did. / said we would
say to him what 7 have heard sung at
the close of the school attended
down in the backwoods:
Goodbye scholars, goodbye
school,
Goodbye teacher, you darned old
fool"
By the General Conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, South:
Resolved, That this General Confer
ence instructs it's secretary to convey
our greetings to the Honorable Wood
row Wilson, the apostle of the modern
democracy and world peace; that we
assure him that we stand for the great
principles of international equity and
good will which he has so clearly
enunciated. We pray Gods blessing
upon him and pledge ourselves to the
promotion Of the great truths he has
so ably set forth"

Trade Journals Condemn Tariff Bill

Trade Journals Condemn Tariff Bill
Here is typical opinion of the
trade journals on the McCumber atr-
if bill from the Shoe and Leather Re-
porter:
"The tariff bill as framed in the
House and mutilated by the Senate
Finance Committee, should be laid on
the table and forgotten. It is about
the worst piece of revenue legislation
in the history of the government. 1t
is full of blunders, contradictions and
inequalities, and for every clause ac-
ceptable to an industry something fol-
lows Of an Objectionable character.
at should be plain as MONDAY sun
that it is not possible for Congress to
frame an adequate bill at this time.
industrial and commercial conditions
in all the countries of the world are in
state of flux, and whatever appears
to be good set of tariff clauses to-
day might be completely out of align
ment and inadequate tomorrow.
perhaps it will be humanity posi-
BILE to revise the schedules intelligent
ly few years hence, when the war
stricken world has settled down to
business again."

Guiding manufacturers and importers;
from farmers, and almost every ele-
ment possessing intelligence and with
any understanding of economic prin-
ciples.
The constitutionality of the provi-
sion delegating authority to the
Executive to fix rates has been at
tackled by such great constitutional
lawyers at Senator Walsh (Dem.,
Mont.) and Senator Pomerene (Dem.,
Ohio), and by one of the foremost
authorities on the tariff, Senator I'm
.derwood lDem., Ala.), but the Senate
has already shown its contempt for
the Constitution by confirming Sena-
tor Smoot and Representatives Burton
as members of the War Debt Funding
Commission.
There is scarcely schedule in the
bill that is not subject to attack in
the nature of an exposure Of special
privileges granted to the big inter-
ests. The Packers Trust is we'll pro-
vided for. The Payne-Aldrich bill put
one and half cents a pound on all
fresh meat. In the pending bill it is
three and half cents a pound on beef
and veal, with lamb at five cents a
pound. Swine now on the free list, is
given the rate of one-half cent a
pound and fresh pork also is on the
free list at three-quarter cents a
pound. Sheep are taxed at 81 head.
But there has been no change in the
rate on cattle on the hoof which the
packers import from South America,
and frozen meats are barred from
competition.
These are typical of the protection
afforded the big interests.

The tenth annual livestock show
June l and 2, was one of the best ever
held here. Last year there were
few more animals entered, but the
quality of the animals this year was
pronounced by all to be the best ever.
This is especially true of the Hol-
stems and Shorthorns. When the
show first began, farmers quite often
brought many animals that were not
of very high quality but all of the
animals on exhibition this year were
excellent individuals and many or
them would take places in the state
