declaration of Governor Smith. 81
want the women of the country" said
Senator Curtis, ito say to Governor
Smith, not in whispering voice, but so
the whole world will hear, that no
state in this union is going into the
whisky business"
He paid fine tribute to Congress-
man Leavitt's record in congress, and
to Governor Dixon, with whom he
served in the senate. Both, he urged
should be returned to congress. In
conclusion Senator Curtis made an
earnest plea for election Of Herbert
Hoover.
Discussing farm legislation accom-
plishments of the republican party,
Senator Curtis said in part:
cSoon after the war, congress fully
realized that no class of our people
had suffered more by the readjust-
ment Of prices from the high points
attained during the war than the
farmers. They had been induced to
cultivate larger tracts of land; to raise
more cattle and hogs, and to increase
the production of wheat, corn and
other crops. Many farmers borrowed
heavily in order to purchase farm ma
chinery and other necessities at the
high prices. After the war the prices
of agricultural products dropped pre-
cipitately. In many instances the
value of the crops raised was less than
their cost of production. While the
farmer was producing and selling at
greatly reduced prices and in some in
stances at loss, the prices of the
things which he had to buy did not
drop in proportion to those of what he
had to sell. The result was that the
farmer was harder hit than any other
class. The situation was acute and
quick relief was required. 1t was
given by the republicans.
"The Importance and value Of the
Legislation enacted to relieve agricul-
ture during the first two years Of re
publican control is set out in the re-
port Of the American Farm bureau Of
April 6, 1928, as follows:
The passing of the sixty-seventh
congress into history marks an epoch
in the undertaking Of the American
Farm bureaus national legislative
campaign. 1t is not too much to say
that the &c laws passed by that con
gress, which were initiated and sup
ported by US, are of far more import
ance to American agriculture than all
the legislation relating to agriculture
passed since the adoption of our con
stitution'
"Some of the principal measures
passed by the republicans for the re-
lief of agriculture are as follows

LOCAL GARAGE is
CLOSED FOR RE-
PAIRS" SAYS SIGN

"Closed for repairs" is the sign
that has been appearing on the Murdo
garage all this week. The fact is
that Art hasn't purchased any new
equipment, neither has he remodeled
the garage-.he got married.
Sunday Mr.. and Mrs. John RADIO
sevich went chicken hunting and took
Miss Mary Salono and Art Murdo
along. Apparently Art did not do
much hunting, confirming himself to
talking to the lady of his choice, as
when the party returned to town Miss
SaIono announced she was leaving
town at once as she was to become MIR.
Murdo's bride.
In company with Miss Pauline Sa-
lono and Jack Gillen the happy couple
drove to Columbus and that evening
were united in marriage. They had
made arrangements before leaving
town to rent the house on Broadway
recently vacated by Albert Boos, and
it is claimed the greater share OF the
repairs" being made by Mr.. Murdo
is That of furnishing his new home.
Mrs. Murdo is the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Tony Salono and has grown
to womanhood in our city, where she
enjoys wide circle of friends, and
the groom is a thrifty young business
man, who also has been raised in the
city. Everyone, including this news
paper, unites in wishing them all the
joys and success possible in their
union.

"The farm loan board had requests
from farmers for loans numbered in
the thousands, which It was unable to
meet. | introduced a bill authorizing
the government to purchase $50000,-
600 of the boards bonds. In this way
the necessary money to resume lend
ing on farm property was provided.
The interest rate on the bonds was
increased to 51a per cent to provide a
more ready general sale. The loan
limit was raised from $4,000 to $685.
eco. The bill was passed and signed
by President Harding 1t materially
increased the boards usefulness to the
farmers.
"The farmers believed that it would
be of great help to them if the war
finance corporation were authorized
to extend credit to them. The repub-
lican congress passed joint resolu-
ton granting authority to the war
finance corporation to aid agriculture,
but President Wilson vetoed it on Jan.
5, 1921, and nothing could be done
until after March 4, when the repub-
licans were in full power. Thereafter,
the war finance corporation act was
amended and its life extended three
times to help the farmers in carrying
and disposing of their products, and
to provide credit for agricultural pur-
poses through lonas not only to banks
with which the farmers dealt, but also
to associations of producers them
selves
Important amendments were made
to the federal warehouse act of 1916
which originally covered only cotton
grain, wool and tobacco, charging the
scope of this act to include all suit
able farm products designated by the
secretary of agriculture. The former
insignificant penalties for violation OF
the act were made very drastic. With
in short time the leading banks rec
ognized as good collateral for loans
receipts issued for products stored il

capacity audience listened to the SEN
ator discuss the issues of the cam
paign, and farm legislation accom-
plishments of the republican party.
The record of the last eight years,
ne said, has never been equalled in
the history of the nation. He cited
continuation of work Of the War
Finance corporation, vetoed by a dem
ocratic administration, then carried by
a republican majority and approved
by republican president. He told Of
relief afforded by republican con-
gress through authority to purchase
bonds of the federal farm loan board
and of the emergency tariff act,
enacted at an extra session which fol-
lowed Inauguration of the Harding adj
ministration. He cited benefits to ag-
riculture of this measure, AMI paused
to observe that the agricultural situa-
ton in general should be treated as a
non-partisan proposition, and that re-
publicans and democrats alike should
join hands to give agriculture the re-
lief it needs.
He pointed out benefits Of the tariff
act of 1922, which succeeded the emer-
gency act, contrasting it's effects on
agriculture with effects of the dem
ocratic Underwood schedules in effect
from 1913 until the passage of the
emergency act.

another stage of his address. "Why
not increase the tariff and spread out
these beet fields in Montana, Wyo-
ming and Colorado?" he asked.
Frequently he referred to recent
campaign utterances of Al Smith, who

ton of Canadian wheat on a milling

Concluding vigorous attack on the
Underwood tariff schedules, Senator
Curtis read Smiths and the dem
ocratic platform Endorsement Of them
