Shows Why Democrats
Are Eager For High Tariffs
Nv r r. STEWART

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-Demo-
cratic politicians cannot very well
admit that they will be deeply
erjeyed II the tariff bill which the
@. o. p. bosses finally get together
on is not nearly as high as the min
ority party management expected.
The fact remains that the JefferP
sonian leaders will be placed in an
awkward position unless their worst
fears are realized.
The tariff bill passed by the
strongly republican house Of repre-
sentatives was generally recognized
as n rip shorter. II even shocked a
good many pretty strong protection
lists.
Now the senate finance committee
is at work on il.
High as II Is. the democrats have
felt sure that the republican major
ity Of the committe was going TO
recommend still higher rates.
On that supposition, the demo-
Gratis argued thus:
!. Maybe the republicans senate
majority will o. X. the committees
recommendation. in which case 1t IS
certain the high tariff house OF rep
resentatives will accept the boosted
bill: and maybe the president will
sign 1t.
The result will be a big increase in
the cost Of living; the farmers Will
be furious: other countries through
out the whole world will retaliate
against the United States. the stuff
ing will be knocked out Of Americas
export trade: a few interests doubt
less will profit. but 1t will be at the
expense of the vast majority, and
they will not be long IN discover
ing IL.
2. Maybe the bill will pass. but
maybe President Hoover. who is not
regarded as an enthusiastic high
tariff lite. will veto IL.
3. Maybe the senate and the
house of representatives will get into
a fight over some change made in
the bill by the senate-as. for in
stance. the insertion Of a farm de-
benture clauss-and the whole thing
will be deadlocked and 60 glooey.
In the event Of expectation No. Is
fulfillment. the democrats were
counting on a popular revulsion
against the new tariff rates TO play
into democratic hands at the next
election.
In the event the fulfillment Of
expectation No. 2 or 3. they were
figuring on a big democratic ad-
cantage as a result OF a bad G.. .. p.
split.
They preferred No. /. decidedly.

II Lieut.. Lytarger had been a

might have gievn the boss OF the
pasture a run for his money but his
training in the army air corps had
not included battling bulls with air
planes so Ire merely sat tight and
tried to become interested in the
landscape.
The first round in the uneven en-
counter went to the bull. whose
horns pierced the fuselage of the
plane and whose prodigcus shoul-
ders bent the struts Of the ship Of
the air.
Just as the bull was apparently
contemplating climbing into the
cabin with Lieut.. Lybarger. the
farmer galloped up breathlessly
and spoke to the inhospitable bull
very, very severely. The blacksnake
whip which he carried proved even
more effective and persuaded the
bull TO retire to his owner corner
Of the pasture. still sncrting.
Thus. bull fighting has been add
