level Of life for the average family ana
to prevent lowering to the Levels OF
economic life prevailing In other lanos
1T is the history Of the nation that
the protective tariff system has ever
justified itself by restoring confidence
promoting Industrial activity and en-
ployment, enormously increasing our
purchasing power, and bringing In
creased prosperity to all our people.
Raises Standard Of Living
1.-The tariff protection to our indus
try works for increased consumption
of domestic agricultural products by
an employed population instead OF one
unable to purchase the necessities OF
life. Without the strict maintenance
of the tariff principle our farmers VIII
need always to compete with cheap
lands and cheap labor abroad ana with
lower standards Of living.
1.-THE enormous value OF the pro-
tective principle has once more Deen
demonstrated by the emergency tar1n
act Of 1921 and the tariff act OF 1922.
I'VE assert our belief in the elastic
provision adopted by congress IN the
tariff act of 1922, providing for
method of readjusting the tarin rates
and the classifications in order to meet
changing economic conditions when
such changed conditions are brought to
the attention Of the President by COM
plant or application.

THE TARIFF

eve reaffirm our belief in the pro-
tective tariff to extend needed pro-

We believe in protection as a national
policy, with due and equal regard to
all sections and to agriculture, in
dustries and occupations. It is only
by adherence to such policy that the
we'll being of consumers can be safe
guarded, that there can be assured to
American agriculture, to American
labor, to American manufacturers a
return to perpetuate American stand

FINANCE AND TAXATION

1--WE believe that the achievement
of the Republican administration in
reducing taxation by $1,25O, OOOOOO per
annum; reducing of the public debt by
50, 432 600, 600; installing a budget sys-
TEN; reducing the public expenditures
from $500, 100000 per annum to ap-
proximately $3,4OO, 100000 per annum,
thus reducing the ordinary expendi-
lures of the government to substan-
TALLY a prewar basis; and the COM
plete restoration of public credit; the
payment or refunding of 81, 500, 5000
of public obligations without disturb
ance of credit or industry-all during
the short period of three years-pre-
sents record unsurpassed in the his
tory of public finance.
1.-THE assessment of taxes wisely and
scientifically collected and the efficient
and economical expenditure of the
money received by the government are
essential to the prosperity Of our ma
ton. Carelessness in levying taxes in
evitably breeds extravaganza In ex-
penditures.
Demand Sound Policy.
1.-The wisest of taxation rests most
lightly on the individual and economic
life of the country. The public de
mand for sound tax policy is in
sistent.
Progressive tax reduction should be
accomplished through tax reform. 1t
should not be confined to Tess than
100000 Of our citizens who pay direct
taxes. but is the right of the more
than 1OO,OOO,OOO who are daily paying
their taxes through their living ex-
penses. Congress has in the main con-
fined its work to tax reduction. The
matter of tax reform is still unsettled
and is equally essential.
I'VE pledge ourselves TO the pro-
gressive reduction of taxes of all the
people as rapidly as may be done with
due regard for the essential expendi-
lures of the government administered
with rigid economy, and to place our
tax system on a sound peace time
basis.
1--WE indorse the plan of President
Coolidge to call In November q ma
tional conference of federal and state |
officials for the development Of the |
methods Of tightening the tax
burden of our citizens and adjusting
questions of taxation as between ma
tional and state governments.
Recognizing Y. S. Bureaus.
I'VE favor comprehensive reor-
ganization of the executive depart
ments and bureaus along the line Of
the plan recently submitted by joint
committee of the congress, which has
the unqualified support Of President
Coolidge.
1.-The Improvement In the enforce
ment Of the merit system both by
legislative enactment and Executive ac-
hon since March 4, 1921, has been
marked and effective. BY Executive or
der the appointment Of Presidential
oostmasters has been placed on the
merit basis similar to that applying

This help, togther with the offer
of Gooding college to give all worthy
students an opportunity to work for

it possible for many worthy young

who would not otherwise be able to
go this year.

FOREIGN RELATIONS

1.-THE Republican party reafiirms Its
stand for agreement among the ma
lions to prevent war and preserve
peace. AS an Important step in this
direction we indorse the Permanent
Court of International Justice and
favor the adherence of the United
States to this tribunal, as recommend
ed by President Coolidge. This gov
eminent has definitely refused mem
bership in the League of Nations and
to assume any obligations under the
covenant of the league. On this we
stand
"While we are unwilling to enter
into political commitments which
would involve us in the conflict of
European policies 1t should be the
purpose and high privilege of the
United States to continue to cooperate
with other nations in humanitarian ef-
forts In accordance with our cherished
traditions. The basic principles of our
foreign policy must be independence

most impressive example of the ca
