Sen. Walsh and the Tariff
(Montana-R Record Herald

Let's take q brief survey of the tariff record Of
the senior senator from Montana. Thomas J. Walsh,
seeking reelection to the senate, may be expected in
this campaign to stress his activities in tariff legisla-
ton as affecting the industries in which his consttu-
ents are chiefly concerned. The record is interesting.
Mr.. Walsh in the senate on December 10, 1929,
spoke as a protectionists in favor OF the wool growers
of his state. His remarks were confined to an attack
upon the Blaine amendment to the tariff bill which
would have reduced duty on wool rags from Is cents
to nine cents per pound. The senator was proud of
that speech. In it he saw a bait for the votes of Mon
tana wool growers in 1880. He was SO elated with his
oratorical effort along this line that the speech was
> nted and distributed.
The senator, let it be noted in passing, is en-
sed in the wool business, if we ar to believe the
s.atements made at various times by his business asso-
eiate, Lewis Penwell, who says that the senator is
heavily interested in some of the Penwell sheep
cooperative enterprises. But the senator gave his
reason that it was included in the quotation printed
upon the cover of the pamphlet.
For once the senator expressed himself as will
ing to abide by the opinions of others in these words:
at is my judgment, generally speaking, that those who
are engaged in a particular industry are the best judges
of what is for their own interest
That was on December 10, 1929. Less than
three months later-on March A, 1880, to be exact-Sen-
ator Walsh arose in the senate to oppose the sugar
schedule. His earlier statement Of Decembr 10 was
forgotten and the senator in the course of his remarks
said: | am unable to vote for this duty so
much desired by the beet growers in the state of Mon
tana."
In December the senator blew hot in favor of a
high duty on wool rags and based his position on the
promise that the men engaged in an industry were the
best judge. Of WHAT S for the best n interest of that in
dustry. However in March the senator blew cold at the
idea OF a high duty on sugar that would be Of benefit
to Montana and which he admitted was so desired bv

With the specious plea that a high sugar 4
would mean an added increase to the cost of Twin.
thought he avoided when discussing the wool tart,
tho senator turned a deaf ear II am expanding n
tana industry. The welfare OF an industry in his s..
in which 1000 growers are engaged, is Of no MON
to Senator Walsh, and Ms far as he is concerned
$4,000 acres that now are in sugar beet production
dwindle away to desert waste. If the senator had
way sugar would soon become a luxury. instead Of
most staple Of foods.
Senator Walsh turned down the beet grow
just as he ultimately turned down the wool grow
when ne voted against the HaWley Smoot tariff
on final passage.
Consistency Indeed a jewel.

Large Crowd Attends Fete Held In Tabs Hall By St. Paurs Fife and Drum Corps - Double Header Planned

Berlin's democratic caucus will be held in Tabs hall in kensington Fri day evening, August 2S at o'clock, in accordance with a. call sent out to that effect by Daniel Malarney, who is the chairman of the demo- cratic town committee.

 No announcements have as yet been made as to the probable make LID of the local democratic ticket which will be presented to the voters Of the town at the next election.
 Underpass Flooded
 The heavy rain which fell during tn night caused the usual flood at the local underpass in kensington. The water assumed a depth far be- yond any that has yet been eXperi- enced and automobile traffic was held up for some time al this point.
 This spot has been the subject of IluNl dS EtdllDll ItI NlI' past 'NH years and the cry that something ought 10 he done 10 alleviate the condition existing has been long and loud.
 Situated as it is at the end of two slopes it is a natural basin for all the water which sheds from these two elevations and the drains are incap- oblr nf tho nf water that flows so freely during a heavy rain.
 The objection raised most often is that pedestrians who have to pass this point during the flooded condi- tions are forced 10 seek their way over the tracks of the New Haven road.
 Lawn Festival Held
 Despite the inclement weather of last night large crowd was on hand at the lawn festival and dance con- Gucted at Tabs hall under the aus pices of St. Paul's Fife and Drum corps.
 The original plan 10 hold the affair on the lawn was necessarily aban- doned because of the heavy rain. A luncheon of home made cake, Ice cream and punch was served
