KNOCKING THE KNOCKERS
By George B. Lockwood


A protective tariff is assailed as
special privilege" by foes of what
Henry Clay well named ''the Ameri-
can policy" of protection.
We are told that the right to buy
where one can buy the cheapest is a
natural right, and that the denial of
that right is class legislation.
But dies the American producer
have this privilege to buy labor
where he can buy it cheapest?
By our laws we prohibit child la
Dor, we restrict the hours of labor
for both men and women, we forbid
the free immigration of foreign la
Dor, we forbid the importation of la
Dor under contract.
We would not tolerate the impor-

tation by an American manufacturer
of coolie, peasant and peon laborers
to work here for such a wage as they
receive at home, which is from one
tenth to One-half the American wage.
Why then should the American
people, who for good reasons have
enacted such protective legislation,
demand the right for themselves TO
Milford chronicle., 1927-10-14

buy abroad the product of coolie la
Dor, peasant labor, child labor, un-
regulated female labor, on the mere
ground that it is cheaper?
Is special privilege" involved in
extending to the American produc-
ing employer the same protection
from the destructive effects of cheap
labor competition. that we demand
Milford chronicle., 1927-10-14

and enforce in behalf of all other ell
ements of our citizenship?
Every American industry and its
employees are subjected to heavy
local, state and federal taxation. Is
it special privilege" when the fore
ign industry, free from this burden,
is asked to pay something toward the
upkeep of our government at the
custom house?

NOVARRO IN HIS VERY BEST
ROLE
As The Hero OF M-G-M'S FThe Road
To Romance" He Does Great Work

To Romance" He Does Great Work
Because of his decided Latin ap-
pearance and demeanOr, as well as
temperament, Ramon Novarro is
seen at his very best in "The Road
to Romance" the Metro -Goldwyn-
Mayer screen version of the famous
Joseph Conrad novel, which will be
at the Plaza Theatre, Wednesday and
Thursday, October 19 and 20.
Novarro is essentially of the Latin
type and his fine features and mar
velous physique stamp him an ideal
Spanish hero.
Novarro was great in "Scara-
mouche," magnificent in 'Ben-Hur,"
marvellous in "Old Heidelberg" but
is his own natural self as the dash
ing Jose Armando in "The Road
to Romance" To say man is his
own self in role puts him on a
much higher plane than acting ever
could.
Had he lived in the days of Span
ish chiValry NoVarro would have
been a gallan courtier. He possesses
all the qualifications and character
istics of Spanish caballero. He is
handsome, manly in appearance,
moulded physically perfect and has
a great sense of humor as well as a
talent for lovemaking.
In his role of the Spanish gallant
of 'The Road to Romance" he re-
minds one of Valentino when the
latter was at his height.
During Novarro's screen career he
has appeared in roles of many ma
tianalities and he has adapted him
self to them in an excellent manner
yet to do so he had to rely on his
ability as an actor. In "The Road to
Romance" he discards the artifces
of acting and becomes Roman No
varro in the age of chivalry and ad-
venture.
Novarro is ably assisted in his
new picture by the petite and charm
ing Marceline Day, who portrays the
role of Spanish gentlewoman.
The remainder of the cast, includ-
ing Roy Darcy, Otto Matieson,
Cesare Gravina and Marc McDer-
mott are excellently cast in their
respective roles.
The picture, which was directed
for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer by John
S. Robertson, is both highly roman
tic, colorful and picturesque.
