Warrington. Sept. 28.-Free trade
Lobbyists maintaining expensive Of
fices ct Washington and conducting
very expensive publicity campaigns
are out in q new attack on the Ford
ney-McCumber tariff in an effort to
mdslead the farmers.
This time. the attack Is made upon
the ground the tariff is hurting the
livestock business Of the United
States. The attack IL fathered by the
Washington lobbyists Of . wen-known
farm organization. These officials.
who are Democrats. are using that
organizations name and prestige in q
continuous campaign not only against
the tariff, but against other Republi-
can policies. as well as against Re-
publican administration officials.
It is not believed that this attack
will get very far or carry very much
weight. in view of the facts. The
Fordney-McCumber tariff places a
duty off one aIli d haif cents pound
upon cattle weighing less than 1850
pounds; a duty Of cents pound on
cattle above that weight, and a duty
OF 8 cents a pound on fresh beef.
These rates were written into the

bill At tho request Of livestock inter

practically q continuation Of the tariff
rates contained in the Farmers

1921. Every livestock grower can as
certain for himself whether or not this
tariff 10 hurting him by comparing
prices he II receiving for livestock in
this country with prices being paid
for livestock in other countries.
Take, for example. South America.
Figures complied from the official re-
port Of the Argentine Ministry Of
Agriculture show the following prices
of cattle on the Buenos Aires Market:
Special steers, two and one-half
years and over, which correspond in
classification to prime steers" on the
American market, are selling in Buen.
os Aires at 4 to 41sc pound.
Steers which correspond in classi-
ficatfon to good to choice" ON the
livestock markets of the United
States are selling in Buenos Aires at
. to cents a pound

ficzstion 10 feeders on the MAJ hetts
of the United States are selling in
Buenos Aires at cents a pound.
With cattle selling at these prices
in Argentine, and with American pack
ing establishments there ready to turn
such cattle into beef, where would the
livestock industry OF the United
States be II they were not protected
from invasion of these cattle and
beef made from these cattle? It is
perfectly obvious that were 1t not for
the protective tariff on cattle and
fresh beef. the country would be
flooded with importations 80 cheap as
to drive the American livestock inter
ests into bankruptcy within few
months.
Take another example. The United
States Department Of Agriculture has
just issued a statement upon the
sheep industry. The opening sen
tence Of that statement is as follows:
Rapid recovery from the depress.

is being made by the American sheep

Huge COLLEGE Letter.

Western students returning to
college at Gunnison this fall were
greeted by what is said to be the
largest college letter in the world, an
enormous "W' at the top of Tender
foot mountain. 1t was laid out by
student engineers and filled In with
stones. Students carried pals OF
lime up from the foot of the mount
ain and whitewashed It. The letter
stands $50 feet high, has spread
OF the 900 feet and the lines are 16
feet wide. The work was done at the
close Of the spring term.

men generally are optimistic and In
good financial shape; mutton and
wool production. though still below
normal ID increasing"
According to the Department. the
number Of sheep in this country is
greater by ss2. 900 head than a year
ago. The Department gives figures to
show that the sheep industry reached
the extreme point in 1920 and 1921.
Upon that point it says:
"The liquidation In that period was
the greatest ever known. Flocks were
reduced by approximately 100000
head Income from wool was wiped
out. Returns from mutton and lamb
were greatly reduced and hundreds Of
nockmasters were ruined.
When Congress placed duey Of 2h
cents a pound on fresh mutton, 4
cents pound on lamb, and 81 cents
a pound on wool Of clean content,
sheep men were encouraged to build
up their nocks again, and a founda-
tion was laid for establishment of
the industry on normal footing"
Further on, the Departments report
states:
ut is noteworthy that wool prices
began to advance shortly after the
Emergency Tariff went into effect in
1921. For time. domestic wool
prices advanced while world wool
prices declined. Wool today has a
higher relative purchasing power in
this country than any other agricul-
tural commodity, and the lambs are
one of the few agricultural commodi-
ties that are ruling substantially
above the 1913 level"
These figures and this conclusion
exactly coincide with figures and con-
clusions put out by the U. s. Tariff
Commission which stated positively
and unequivocally that the Republican
Congress was the only thing that
saved the sheep industry of the Unit
ed states from absolute ruin, as well
as saving many banks and financial
institutions with loans on this indus
try from ruin.
In view Of these facts it should be
evident that those free trade lobbyists
in Washington who purport to repre-
sent farming and livestock interests
are in reality but using them as tool
to represent other interests. In fact.
these lobbyists are doing more injury
to legitimate farming interests than
practically any other influence of the
country. And the sooner the real
farming and livestock interests clean
them out, in 30 far as they pretend
to speak for the farmer. the better off
the agricultural interests will be.

COLOR LINE DRAWN
In HARVARD HALLS

NEW YORK. Jan. 11.-Confirm-
alton OF the intention OF Harvard
University to break its tradition as
regards Negro students and exclude
them from the freshman dormitory,
as alleged in a memorial sent to
President A. Lawrence Lowell by a
number OF Harvard graduates last
June. was received yesterday. II was
learned that President Lowell had
stated the policy OF the university
in a letter 10 Roscoe Conkling Bruce,
a Negro graduate. who recently at
tempted to reserve a room in the
freshman dormitory for his son.
The memorial. which was drafted
last July and sent TO harvard grad
yates all over the United States, was
signed by seven OF Harvard's most
prominent graduates IL declared
that the university, whose graduates
in the past have been foremost
among champions OF equal rights
for Negroes and white men, now is
swinging to a Jim Grow" policy to
please students from the Southern
States.
