WASHINGTON, d G., Oct. IS
Two Democrats who acYhieved
honors, official position and fnflu.
enee ia the ranks OF their party
In West Virginia who are staunch
supporters and defenders of the
Fordney-McC Climber Protective
Tariff Law are former state Sena-
tor Gray Silver Of Berkeley

largest and most powerful ma

American Farm Bureau, Atesoa
with the National Grange. They
were prominent among the in
sngatora Of the farm loo" IN
Congress.
Mr., Silver's organization takes
great pride In what 1t did to put
through the tariff Eli in its final
form. @. ]. Fawcettr official coll
league and co-worker OF Mr. ST.

1.-THE American Farm Bureau
stands for protection on agricul-
tural products based on difference
In cost Of foreign and domestic
production. Stands for tho same
degree OF protection as that ac-
corded manufacturers OF our pro-

which letter was signed by offi-
Gals OF farm, dairy and stock or
CARNATIONS to the number OF
nearly fifty, headed by the Ma.
tional Grange by T. c. Atkenson,
In which the Fordney-McC umber
Tariff Bill was endorsed. This was
the first paragraph:
I'VE want to extend the thanku
Of the producers Of this nation 10
the tariff bloc for their support o:
the farm schedules in the pernan
ent tariff measure. We indorse the
McCumber- Fordney bill, as II
more nearly gives the farmers OF
the nation a square deal than any
tariff legislation enacted during
the present generation, and the
first tariff measure even written
based upon the principle that the
farmer is entitled to the same
treatment in tariff legislation al
the manufacturer"

Students Of the political situa-
ton In search OF reasons why tho
Democratic leaders In control q
the party organization and its,
campaign policy should strive so
desperately against the rising tide
Of protective tariff support In.
their party ,as shown to exist Ly
the votes Of their Representatives
! nboth branches Of Congress, by
the Southern Tariff League, have
been unable to unearth any bet.
ter explanation Of this glaring in.
consistency than that written and
filed by Claude Kitchin. minority
party leader on April IA, 1921,
page as Of the Congressional
Record, stating why the Demo-
cratic party opposed the Emc:!
gency Tariff Bill, which did great
service for the farming industry
OF the country in particular, up to
the hour the Fordney-McCumbeF
Law went into effect.
Mr., Kitchin, on the part Of tho
minority submitted the following
views of the minority:
THE policies aud principles adj
Tocated by the Democratic party
and inspiring the continued MAIN
flamenco OF Its organization for,
nearly 100 years forbid our ap-
proval of the1pendIng bill ana
impel US to vigorously protest
against It's passage.
Approval Of this bill By tho
Democrats in Congress would be a
complete surrender OF such prtncl-
pies and abandonment Of sucn
policies and a confession that for
over a half century the Democ-
craft party has been wrong and
the Republican party right on the
tariff. Further 1t will be an ad-
mission that there Is no need for
the continued organization of the
Democratic party. Such approval
would BIO an urgent invitation to
the farmers OF the country, es.
pecially Of the West and South, to
go bodily into the Republican
party-the party Of tariff rob-
bery-as the only means Of theit
future salvation.
"1f there IS a Democrat IN Con.
gress or elsewhere who is foolins
himself into the belief that by GU.
embracing the doctrine of pro.
lection, or his vote for perfection,
through 1t be on his home in-
dustry. he is going to keep With.
the folds of the Democratic party
ar bring into Its ranks the men
who favor'suchSprotection then he
should at once undeceive himself.
A sensible portectlonist will so to
the party that has taught and pra-
cticed protection for so years AM
not to the party that has always
opposed It,"

the passage Of the present tariff,

Democratic senators voted with

on the separate vote on schedules

Democratic senators voted for

is the painful thorn in the side OF
