AID IN HIGH TARIFF
Tells Kentuckians, at Rally,
Dry Law Can Be Enforced
With Proper Effort.
BY the Associated Press.

by Tue ASSOCltttu
LEXINGTON, KY, September 15.-
Before rally of Kentuckians, opening
their State Republican campaign, Sena-
tor Curtis, the party's vice presidential
nominee, today advocated higher tariff
as means of benefiting the "ailing'
AGRICULTURAL situation, and reiterated his
stand that the prohibition law can be
enforced with proper effort"
He pledged the Republicans to up
ward tariff revision. He also saw addi-
tional hopes for the farmers in the
promise" of Herbert Hoover to call
agricultural conferences, and In the
prospect for improved marketing Sys-
TENS.
Opening his Western tour, the Sena-
tor had an enthusiastic reception in the
blue grass section. A crowd which
damned the afternoon meeting at
Woodland Park and collected about
amplifiers on the outside of the audi
forum cheered his proposals for farm
relief.
Party leaders who spoke also received
hand when they confidently predicted
majority Of $4,000 for the Republican
ticket in this State.
Settles Women's Dispute.
Senator Curtis found the Kentuckians
taking their politics seriously. In fact,
he found two rival women's organiza-
tions battling not only for the Repub-
lican ticket, but each other. 1t took a
written truce, signed at the last minute,
to settle the dispute between the wom-
ems Republican Club of Kentucky and
the Kentucky Womens Republican
League, as to which should give him a
breakfast party
The truce" gave each organization
an equal share in the party, which went
along smoothly enough under the agree
ment.s
While the women were ironing out
their suuabble, the Senator spent his
early hours here, today, shaking hands
in the crowded lobby of the Phoenix
Hotel, where he made headquarters.
After the breakfast party Senator
Curtis went on sightseeing trip and
visited the stables of Mrs. Payne Whit
ney. He posed there with the famous
horse. Mad Halter. He Is a lover of
horses, having spent part of his youth
as a Jockey, and after the meeting,
this afternoon, he was driven by auto
mobile to Louisville, where the horse
show took place tonight at the State
Fair. ~a.s
In his talk the Senator recalled that
he. rode as youth a horse bred in this

State campaign committee, presided.
Tariff as Farm Aid.
1.-The tariff is not the remedy for all
the economic ills of the farmer and
stock raiser. but; where'it will help, it
should be applied" the Senator said
Many of the farmers ills are the
result. of the war and of postwar con-
ditions generally: others are. in part
at least, the result of Embellishments
of our distributive systen-a lack of
proper marketing facilities.
"Co-operative associations have done
much to relieve this latter difficulty.

Upon leaving the auditorium the Sem
ator was called upon to address a huge
overflow meeting Of those who had been
unable to get into the spacious hall.
In a brief talk there, he denounced
the Democratic position on the tariff,
and declared Gov. Smith favored a
revision of the tariff act along lines Of
the Underwood bill, which. he con-
tended, meant lower rates on agricul-
tural products.
