LOWERED TARIFF,
 PARTY'S KEYNOTE
This and Aid for Farmers Is Iowa Campaign Foundation
ECONOMIC INEQUALITIES
Claude R. Porter, Democratic Sena- torial Nominee, Arraigns Repub- licans for Tolerating Special Priv iliges.

Des Moines, Ia, July 28 P)- Downward revision of the tariff and support from the federal government of some agency empowered to handle or facilitate the foreign mar keting of agrncultural products, was advocated today by Claude R. Por- ter s democratic senatorial nominee, in the keynote address before the Iowa democratic convention.
 Criticizes Republicans,
 MT. Porter also arraignGI the re- publican party flor failure to rec ognize the conditions of the mid west" for "tolerating special priv ileges" which he said was largely responsible for present economic inequalities and for failure to rigid ly enforce antitrust laws"
 Like the keynote speaker in last weeks convention of the republican party, MT. Porter, a Des Moines Ia w. yer and veteran democratic. cam palgner. devoted himself chiefly to conditions surrounding the farm in dustry and to criticism Of of oppon- ents Of farm relief proposals "in the industrial east"
 Farmers Suffering.
 Tt is significant" he said, that during the last. three years when we have had upon our statute books the highest tariff in the history of the country, the farmers Of Iowa have suffered as never before. This situ- ation is conceded by. leaders of the farm movement in the Mississippi valley"
 East Gets Profits
 MT. Porter said the eastern indus- tries were steadily increasing their export business under favorable leg islation, while farm exports which hitherto were the largest of any single class, were steadily diminish Ing. He suggested that instead of permitting international bankers to make loans abroad that might be used for the purchase of goods in other countries, the government should assist the federal agency in extending credit to those needing American farm products on condi- tion that the money be used solely for that purpose.
 Hope for such legislation, he said, rests in a united middle west and a united agricultural south" which must be realized through a spirit of compromise that does not sacrifice effectiveness and principle of the plan already advocated by numer- ous farm groups.
 sMr. Porter said he was confident that the problem would be solved, pointing with optimism to the deter imitation of Iowans to overcome their adversities.

SUNNY FOX MINE LEAD
 RICHER AND BROADENING

Bigger and better in every way is the word sent up from Sunny Fox mine, Nuka bay, the Downey brothers and Babcock property, for the further in they go on their lead the values seem better and the lead broadening.
 A few days ago they sluiced the big lead and put in cut 10 feet wide and 15 feet long and on the right side seven feet deep and 10 feet wide. No true walls are apparent but the lead seems to bear to the left. The own rs are going to run out another cut just as soon as they complete sluicing the lower end. Some of the rocks are so large they must be shot out. It is their plan to strip the lead to the gray whack.
 Development of the workings will occupy the attention of the owners this winter and in the spring it is quite possible they will either enlarge and make alterations in their present mill or purchase a new one. A tun- nel has been driven in an approximate 100 feet and sinking in two places on the original lead has begun.

HONOR SYSTEM AT
 YALE ASSAILED
"NeWs" Also Wants Unlimited
 Cuts for Upper Glasses

New Haven. Feb, II Rl-rnlIm. lied cuts and abolition of the honor system are the leading points adyo- 'catcd by the 1927 board of editors Of the Yale Daily News" which assumes publication of "the oldest college dally' with this mornings issue. The platform which the board has prepared continues the fight the Yale undergraduates have been making on compulsory chapel for the last year,
 In advocating unlimited cuts the News" does not believe that it would be desirable for the freshmen and sophomorcs, hut that it would have a wholesome reaction on the
 juniors and seniors."t To qualify a student should have general aver age of 75 and should be required 10 make up the work he misses by cut tiug.
 The "NcWa' believes that the pres nnt working of the honor system is unsatisfactory and calls for it's sus- pension in two months should the student council. which administratoS n, fail to improve tho situation by moro rigid enforcement,
 Believing that certain undergradU- atcs arc set up as dcnigods by cleo ton 10 honorary positions before the clnss members arc well acquainted with one another, the paper urges the abolition of the freshman disCi- pline committee. in that it failed in it's functon as regulator of the honor system.
 The Yale News" platform for the coming year supports the plan of the Harvard "Crimson' for the ro- duction of the public's "virtual con- trol of college football"
 The greater part of the platform contains what constitutes 'bisl of rights" for the undergraduates. Jt calls for recognition by the ultimate authorities of the expressed majority opinions of undergraduates, to which careful consideration and definite answer should be given in every case" It suggests an efficient mech anism by which all questions should proceed 10 their settlement, the channel being suggested, as via the News" student council, joint-con- ference of student council and fac- ulty representatives, faculty and finally, the corporation.
 Russell Lee Post of Hartford is the chairman of the 1927 'NeWs' board.
