 suffrage Harmful"
 He said of the nineteenth amend mcnt which made woman suffrage the law of the land that it com plicated the problem of preserving the American plan of self-govcrn- mcnt by bringing 10 the electorate and into legislative Hobbies fire quent and urgent appeals for fed cral Legislation and constitutional changes conceived in feminine pas sion for the peoples welfare and in sublime ignorance Of their real significance.
 slams Income Tax.
 Of the income tax he said I've have q system whose complaxitS confuseS the expert, whose cost Of collection to the nation, excessive though 1t be, is far exceeded by thc cost to the tax payer in time and nervous energy and whose inquisi- lions necessarily complicated and clumsy are peculiarly eXasperatmG to a liberty loving people"
 The encroachment of the cen tral government upon the states control of internal affairs is rap idly impairing the integrity of state government" he charged.
