Democrats Stand for
Honest Tariff Policy

Mr.. Hoover, n stating his views on
the tariff, has deliberately discarded
all the results of the research of the
trade experts in his own department
and taken his stand with those eX.
tremists in his party who demand
that If there is any revision at all 1t
must be upward. He pledges his
party to a fight to keep out foreign
goods. Presumably, he intends to
stand by all the m~onstrosities Of the
Observation-Disclosures tariff and perhaps
to add to them. Toward the methods
Of President Coolidge in destroying
the tariff commission he maintains II
discreet silence.
Governor Smith, on the other hand,
proposes to rehabilitate the tariff com
mission and through it to give the
country honest tariff legislation. That
is far from the Hoover policy, and
those who say that the Democrats
have switched over to the Republican
side on the tariff issue need to revise
their references. The Democrats have
accepted the principle Of protection
but they have not accepted Mr.. Hoov-
er's idea that protection means the
Fordney-McCumber law and more
of it. o

Why Let Democrats
Tinker With Tariff:

ONLY once in our history has the
country changed political administra-
lions in an era of prosperity, except
when the change was brought about
by a party division. The single In
stance was that of 1892, when the
country turned back to Cleveland.
The change brought commercial dis
aster in it's train. Notwithstanding
the tremendous burden Of taxation
laid upon the people by the great war,
we have experienced six years of the
most remarkable prosperity. Ibis, too,
in the face Of several great strikes
and disasters, which for a time tied
ND one or more great industries. 1t
may be true that a part of this pros
perity is due to conditions in other
parts of the world, but is more large
ly due to the wise administration OF
the government.
If the people as a whole are pros
porous, why should they want to
change and run the risk of bringing
about q commercial crisis? Long years
Of experience have established the
fact that a protective tariff has al
ways been the backbone Of American
prosperity. The Republican party
promises to retain that feature in any
revision that may be made. The his
tory of the Democratic party is that
it has always opposed the protective
theory. What assurance a 1t Offer
the people now that it will go back or
it's fixed beliefs?
