protective tariff Keeps out i'm
pOrtations and destroys competi-
4 ton. 1t must be clear that even
if a Republican protective tari
law did keep out importations, the
inevitable effect would be to create
new American enterprises of like
character and thus increase do
meStic competition in even greater
proportion than foreign competi-
ton is dimished.
A recent writer stated that a tar
tff law (which affords every ad-
vantage to foreign sellers in the
American market to the detriment
Of American labor and industry
can hardly be held to benefit this
country. Here in America we
know that we must produce and
earn before we can spend and con
sume."
A tariff law which diverts Ameri-
can money from the payment of
American wages to the payment of
foreign wages cannot possibly
benefit the American working man.
The women voters of this coun-
try have heard President Coolidge
recount the large revenue which
has come to this country with the
present protective tariff in vogue.
They know that unemployment has
been ended. They know that
there is a job for every man in this
country. Women know that they
have more money in the family
pocketbook to purchase comforts
for their families when manufac-
turers are encouraged to manu-
facture goods which they can sell
at a profit and thus give employ
ment to men and women who want
to work.
This question OF the tariff is far
and every thoughtful wo-
man must understand that it. is
tied up in all directions with the
income which the head of the
family is able to earn. Every wo-
man knows that it is vitality i'm
portant that her husband should
have an adequate income. AL
together the tariff demands of wo-
men this year a thoughtful answer
when they go to the polls in Nov
smber to cast a vote for the best
interests of their families and the
In which they live.

pll It The women Of this country
have demonstrated their ability to
BET at the real facts underlying
lny business problem. They are
not satisfied with the half-truths
which are frequently presented to
hem in tariff arguments.
It has been said frequently that
women are the purchasing agents
tor the 25,0OO,00O families in the
United States. This Is true, but
before they can purchase for these
families they must have money in
heir pockets,
Women refuse to accept the
Etatement that what the United
States needs is free trade in order
Ihat we may buy cheaply the
products Of other countries.
How can we buy unless the wage
barner Of the family has job
and is earning money!
There are two sides to this tariff
problem. the buying and the SELL

BY MRS. ALVIN t. HERT

AS an interesting and significant
contrast, we should bear in min6
! the fact that under a Republican
protective tariff law the prosperity
of tlIis country has been such that
women have been able to spend
$40,O0O,0OO,0OO per annum, or
nearly 20 per cent of the national
income, upon retail purchases.
Four years ago when the Re
publican party came into power in
this country there were 100000
men out of employment.
This condition of affairs is a de-
cided contrast to the situation in
August, 1924. Industry has known
a great revival and agriculture is
beginning to reap the benefits Of
restored prosperity. Wages have
increased and complaint Of unem-
ployment is at an end.
President Coolidge in accepting
the Republican nomination for
President on August IA last, said:
"As a source Of revenue the
tariff surpasses all expectations
Al pEOuuCLlB an du4ludA ASIuIA
of the unprecedented sum of
about s5OO,OOO,OOO. A fiscal
policy which places a large and
much needed revenue in the
public treasury while stimuIat-
ing business to a condition OF
abounding prosperity defends
itself against any criticism.
Its merits are demonstrated by
its results. We have protected
our own inhabitants from the
economic disaster of an invas-
ion of too many foreign people
or too much foreign merchan-
disc"
The average American working |
man is accustomed to high wages
and his family is accustomed to a
higher scale Of living than is pos
5ible for the family of any other
man in the world. He
Knows that 1t is Of no avail to have
goods on a department store shelf
marked at a slightly lower cost If

ihows that it has continually ,ad-
,ocated protective tariff.

INDUSTRIAL HISTORY IN
THE. MAKING
By LAURA MILLER

Fort Smith, Ark, guarding the river
ford in Indian days, has looked down
on dramatic events. Today it is at
crossroads in Industrial development
as 1t was once at crossroads in pio-
neering. 1t is reached by a west-of-
the-Mississippi that never carries
"diner"-yet is 1t a metropolis, an in
dustrial center. And like all industrial
centers nowadays, it wants women in
its industries.
Two wholesale clothing houses, a
paper-box plant, button factory, two
pants and overall" factories, and
know not what in the line of farm sup
ply houses now surround the old gray
pile of the fort, and furnish spirit Of
hustle and success that runs up and
down the streets. Country-bred girls
are sucked in to join local women in
store and office and factory, as they
are sucked into the Industrial whirl-
pool of New York and San Francisco
and Chicago-but with difference.
What woman holds the most inter-
esting job in Fort Smith? That's hard
to say. It's hard to discover even
when you're right on the spot. Ger
tainly one of the interesting ones is
the job of presiding over what an
imaginable person might call the in
take pipe to the suction pump of Fort
Smith industries. She is the little
woman in black suit and crisp white
blOuse-and oh, a most understanding
smile who wears Travellers Aid
button and presides over the station
waiting room. Il warned you that
Fort Smith is citified. It's also very
up-and-coming about having all the
new wrinkles in town management,
and the Travellers Aid desk is only
sample.)
There is enough time and space and
general spirit of being interested in
your neighbor to make Fort Smith still
keep the best of its small-town habits.
So Miss Jennie Stevens, the aid lady,
isn't expected to catalogue the women
that she meets. She doesn't send out
a hasty postcard to some person or
other, This will Introduce Fanny
Smith. She needs a small room till
she gets her first pay envelope; and
then never know whether Fanny gets
1t or not.
Instead, when Fanny Smith, on her
first venture from Blanksburg, drifts
in minus a job, minus friends, minus
even a place to sleep, the aid lady be-
comes Fanny's first friend. She knows
personally most of the people she calls
up before she sends Fanny out to meet
them, and six months from now she'll
probably know just how Fanny is get
ting on in work, and love affairs, too.
To my mind, the aid lady has the
best job. But there's a sort of human
interest quality about most of those
Fort Smith jobs that the Chicago ones

ours, he gr0aned, and again silence
fell between them.
Kneeling at the window from which
Viola had peered so short time be-
fore, looking down upon the figures
under the tree. was Rachel Carter.
She could hear their low voices, and
her ears, made sharp by pain, caught
the rapturous and the forlorn pas
sages breathed upon the still air.
She arose stiffly and drew back into
the darkness, out of the dim, starlit
path, and standing there with her head
high, her arms outspread, she made
her solemn vow of self-renunciation.
II have no right to stand between
them and happiness. They have done
no wrong. They do not deserve to be
punished. My mind is made up. To
morrow l shall speak God has
brought them together. 1t is not for
me to keep them apart. Aye, tomor-
row l shall speak"
Then Rachel Carter, at peace with
herself went back to her bed across
the hall and was soon asleep, q smile
upon her lips, the creases wiped from
between her eyes as if by some magic
soothing hand.

Memorabilia of Famous
Novelist Ciuen Museum,

All the memorabilia of George Snnd,
which were inherited by the grand
daughter of the great novelist, Aurore
Sand, have been bequeathed to the
Carnavalet museum.
Letters, manuscripts of novels and
numerous articles of extrinsic worth
all are now on view in part Of the
building called the "Musee George
Sand" and the many admirers Of
George Sand, most of whom apparent
ly haven't read her voluminous ro-
mances, are tripping out to the Car
navalet.
However, the article most charac-
teristic Of the author of La Petite
Fadette," big black cigar, isn't in
the collection, much to the disappoint-
ment of the visitors and also of the
museum attendants, who are constant
ly being asked whereabouts the
cigars are.'
Aurore Sand has come into the pub
lie eye not only because Of her gift
to the Carnavalet but also because
she has just written novel, EN-
carnacion." The first book to appear
under her own name, 1t mas been re-
celved with considerable approval by
the critics, who do not hesitate to
say Aurore has inherited some Of her
grandmother's genius.-New York
