 The system had it's birth during the war, when many of the nations industrial, financial and business leaders were placed on Uncle Sans payroll at one dollar d year.

FORD SAYS STOCK
 MARKET COLLAPSE
 NOT TRADE CRISIS

Tt is under suppl. of purchasing power. Oerproduction can never occur until every need is supplied, but the first need is the need of money. Money in the peoples hands represents purchasing power In this country the purchasing power of the people has been practically used up, and still they have not been able to buy all that they must have.
 'I therefore suggest the need of increasing the purchasing power of our principal customors-thc Ameri- can people,"
 He declared that this must be done in two ways: First, by putting ad- ditional value into goods or reducing prices 10 the level of actual values, and, second. starting a movement to increase the general wage level. Nearly everything in this country is too high priced. The only thing that should be high priced in this coun- try is the man who works. Wages must not come down. They must not even stay on their present level; they must go up.'
 Higher Wages, Lower Prices
 Even this was not sufficient of it. self, MT. Ford said. We must see to it." he asserted, that the in creased wages are not taken away from our people by increased prices that do not represent increased val ucs.
 "The country gains no benefit by letting the working man earn an eA- tra hundred dollars and then taking it away from him again in increased rents and rise in prices generally. To make wages better and 10 keep prices down requires that business mon come back into business as many are doing since the stocks came down.

NGr@ Question Scheduled
 .h the outset of the regular ses- Son, convcning on December ?, by agreement, the senate will take up the long standing controversy over inc right of William &. Ware to be seated as senator from Pennsylvania After this the tariff. will be in order and it is expected that a final vote on the revenue measure can be reached before the customary Christmas recess.
 There was however. some spocu- lation as to the attitude of President Hoover toward prolonging the tariff debate by carrying it far into the regular sassion. It has been indicted that he is opposed to such a course. and at one time. Senator Watson. the republican leader, suggested that if the bill should not be disposed of by December ., it be laid aside for an entire year.
 Moses Meeting Harmonious
 Senator Moses of New Hampshire who has been severely criticized for '-i'''iIlS t4l' NtoLtlll lIlutptHutlllS lS sons of the wild jackass." called the republican senatorial campaign committee of which he is chairman, together last night. and later it was reported that the group, including many Of the young republican" bloc, stood knee deep in harm ony,"
 Although repeatedly denied. there had been persistent reports that the young republicans were dissatisfied with the "old guard" leaders, in cluding Moses, who is president pro tenn. of the senate, and were plotting to unseat them.
 Action requested by Senator Met calf of Rhode Island preventing the committee from taking any part in the senatorial campaign in that state next year without the consent of the republican nominee was not taken. Metcalf, one of the young repuDli- cans" is up for reelection. and had explained his request as prompted by a realization that unfamiliar hands can do undesirable things in a po- litical campaign, rather than by al. inclination to attack the leadership of the committee.

 Pod eyes have been fitted into the outside of the hull so that total ofeight pontoons may be quickly at tached to the vessel in case she is disabled on the bottom. Then when the water is blown out Of the pom toons a total emergency lift of over Goo tons may be applied 10 bring the submarine 10 the surface.
 Marker Buoy Installed
 At each end of the submarine has been installed marker buoy which can be released from inside the vos- scl hy an "ntrapped crew. The buoy is painted yellow and carries a light which can be seen at distance Of several miles al sea.
 In addition a telephone hcadpiccc and transmitter is carried in the buoys in a small water tight com- partment by means Of which res. cue units may talk with the per sonneI in the sunkrn submarine. The anchor cable on the buoy may be used a9 a descending line by a diver
 Valves have been fitted which will permit q diver from the rescue yes Scl 10 attach an air-ho8e and blow the water out of the submarines tanks, one at time. or all together IS desired.

A National Monkey Law

American scholars and teachers are rising in IN
dignatlon at the amendment to the new tariff law
which would prohibit the importation of what GUS
toms officials consider seditious and radical foreign
literature
We hope other leaders Of the historical and po-
IticaI sciences will join this chorus until the amend
ment is buried under its own jackassty.
It's origin is a mystery. Chairman Hawley of the
house ways and means committee says he can't re-
member where it came from, but Republican members
of the committee thought it was a good thing and
stuck it in These fifteen Republicans ought to be
immortazed with the legislative fathers of the Ten
nessee monkey law.
Just how eagerly the customs service, with its
several thousand censors would jump at the chance
to keep such men as Zechariah Chafee Charles A.
Beard Professor E. A. Ross and other sociologists
who try to inform us of the way the world is going,
from studying foreign movements, is shown by the
recent barring of "Candide," Voltaires great book
They barred "Candide" under the obscenity statute
situations touched in it, of course but lightly that
the youngest readers morals could not be affected.
We might as we'll admit it, "Candide' is a revo-
lutionary book, and if the customs men did their
duty under this national monkey law they would bar
it together with the best of Anatoe France Cork,
Tolstoy Shaw Wells Barbusse, Roman Holland and
hundreds of others.
OF course there are many other provisions in the
new tariff bill mischevous to prosperity at home
and our friendships abroad. But for sheer asinnity
this one takes the prize.
