thing for us to do" Mr.. Gerard de-
clared, lis to have a great navy and
an army of experts and to stand
behind them and keep out Of other
peoples affairs.
I'VE would be wise. am convinced
if. we would create that great navy,
If we would build up a great army
and not give them up for anybody
and then we could live here in
peace"
1.-THE next question" the speaker
continued, lis that of a tariff. We
have got to have something to pro-
teet our workingmen from the cheap
labor in Europe What is going 10
happen to the workmen OF Rhode
Island, of Fall River and other in
dustrial communities. if they do not
have protection? We do not want
a tariff that will plumber, but .
tariff that will protect the working
man who has to compete with the
working man in Europe who is glad
to work for almost nothing as long
as he can get enough food to keep
himself alive"
