Nye Sees C. o. p. Los
ing Election On Tariff

Washington-FP-If the Repub-
lican Old Guard, with its Demo-
cratic allies, succeeds in enacting
a Grundy tariff law, then the vot-
ers will give the G. o. P. the same
treatment this year that they gave
it in 1912, in the opinion of Sen.
Nye of North Dakota, Nonparti-
san League Republican.
Nye has issued a statement thru
the Democratic national commit
tee, declaring he had hoped for a
tariff that would relieve agricul-
ture, but that the combination of
senators seeking high tariff rates
on oil, cement, sugar and lumber,
under the direction of "astute and
experienced high-tariff lords like
Grundy," has imperilled this pro-
gram. He appealed for reconsid-
Grafton of the vote, by which the
high duty on sugar and cement
may be removed.
