Who Is ~Insurging?

IL was perfectly natural for eastern industrialists
70 charge Senator Borah with insurgency and OBJ
eerucuon when he delivered his protest against the
Hawley tariff bill. Insurgency is the favorite rpithet
'ne East applies to all things western when any west
erner dares oppose an eastern program. Even when
an eastern minority is playing the insurgent role It is
prone TO brand the western majority and It's eastern
aoherents with the insurgent brand.
But Tor all that, Is Borah actually "insurging" IN
opposing the enactment Of the Hawley bill? AS n
matter OF literal truth Is he not closer to the Hoover
position than the eastern industriaHsts are In uuu-
porting the sweeping schedules Of the Hawley tariff
offering7 Let those who are inclined 70 believe that
borah has forsaken the president. review the record
and see where that record places the senator from
Idaho.
In accepting the nomination OF his party Mr.. Hoo
yer gave hearty praise to our present tariff laws rnd
declared that on the whole those laws have worked
TO the advantage Of the country. He admitted that
the present laws contain minor imperfections and i'd
vocated changes wherever 1t can be shown that cor
rection Is needed. He. therefore. came into the pres
idency as a limited reviSionist. Moreover. he was
strongly committed to such tariff increases on agri-
cultural imports as would insure tariff equality TO the
farmers OF the country.
Prior to the presidents convocation of congress in
extraordinary session eastern industrialism with a
fair degree OF unanimity opposed the special session
proposed. It's negative position implied II 1t did not
prove ndustry's satisfaction whit existent laws. But
the president issued his call, and II should De remem
bered that congress was called together to bring re-
lief TO agriculture. The purpose of the session was to
enact tariff changes that would increase agricultural
profits without at the same time increasing Rgricul-
al costs.
But once congress was in session organized Indus
trialism assumed control Of tariff revision. The Few
urice increases awarded to agriculture were more than
counterbalanced by increases in the cost OF things the
farmer has to buy. 1t is the contention OF sen.
Borah that the farmer would be better OIL without
anv revision ut all than he will be II the Hawley bill
becomes a law. He. therefore, expresses his opposition
10 the measure as 1t passed the house and Is stralsn'-
Uay denounced as an ~insurgent and an enemy OF the
administration.
Unless Mr.. Hoover himself has reversed his posi-
t,on. unless he now favors a type Of revision ne lor-
merIv opposed. unless he has dropped limited revision
and come over to general revision. he Is now IN com
plete agreement with the senator from loaho. Anu
there Is nothing In the record TO indicate that ne mas
changed. Until some presidential reversal Is an
nounced there IS no warrant for imputing INSURGENCY
IN Horah. It Is Borah who is supporting the admin
issration and It is eastern industriahsm winch Is
wearing ~inSurgent clothes.

The $4,000 exiles who returned
from Babylon under Zerublabel

sorry spectacle as they looked upon

tablishment Of themselves in their
homes "the people gathered them

step. Even before the foundations
OF the temple we're restored they
restored the altar as their meeting
place with God. and renewed the
ancient sacrifices as their means Of
communication win Him. They
were conscious Of the matters Of
chief Importance in the life OF the
people. Neglect OF that altar had
brought all the disasters Of the past
so years. It's restoration IA there
fore the only proper place to be-
gin their national life anew.

The second step was the laying
Of the foundations for the restora-

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-Repubiicans call him q
"gadfly" and a ~"nagger."
When they get mad at him they bang away and
call him a rainbow chaser and a bad loser.
But still Pat Harrison bats them. Right md left

The next few weeks will see Pat Harrison at his

FIRE DESTROYS MILL

Blackstone, Mass. Aug. 23 CUP) Loss estimated at more than SS.- $50 resulted early today from fire which virtually destroyed the AL bert Messier Knitting mill in East Blackstone.
 Destruction of 25 kitting machines housed n the one story wooden building accounted for much of the loss. Though aid came from Woon- socket R. l.. just across the state line. a shortage of water in the im- mediate vicinity of the plant pre- vented firemen from quelling the flames.
 Cause of the fire could not be de- termined immediately. About 25 persons were employed at the plant
