NEW YORK, Nov. 10. U.P)-Auto-
mobile and mining shares kept the
stock market on a fairly even keel
today in the face of a sharp decline
in wheat and other grains.
Homestake mining advanced 10
points to new high at .131 and
other mining shares made gains
OF fractions to point. Automobile
stocks were up fractions to more
than a point with Auburn up 3.
Steel Common failed to break be-
low the. previous close of II and
was holding net gain of more
than a point near the close while
other industrial leaders made small
er gains.
Railroad shares moved back and
forth several times. AT one period
they were substantially higher and
fairly active on expectation of
satisfactory agreement being reach
ed by the carrier executives on the
l. c. c. freight rate decision and
on a conference with labor regard
ing wage cuts.
Copper shares were helped late in
the day by reports the Belgian
copper representatives would re-
main to engage in further confer
ences on reduction in production of
copper.

Why You Should
Never Cut a Corn

If you are troubled with corns or cal
louses, do not run the risk of blood
poison by pairing them. Statistics show
that many deaths have occurred from
this seemingly innocent practice Of
pairing corns.
Simply go to your druggist and get a
few cents worth of Ice-Mint rub a
little any painful corn or callous.
Immediately the pain will disappear and
in a short time the corn or callous will
loosen and lift off easily with the
fingers-root and all-leaving the sur
rounding skin in a healthy normal con-
dition.
This. together with the fact that Ice
Mint .overcomes such affections as sore,
tired, aching, puffed or burning feet and
makes them cool, easy and comfortable
is probably responsible for the hearty
endorsement given it by druggists
To rid ones feet of every hard corn.
soft corn, corn between the toes or pain
full, callouses in such a pleasant and safe
way, makes it seem the height of folly
for anyone to pare a corn and people
are warned to stop it.

Party Leaders Plan Nation
Drive to Explain Slump;
Farm Boards Failure Hurts
BY GEORGE R. HOLMES =

OJ NGONNOG ~ QOLMES
A routine announcement by
the Department of Agriculture
constituted political news of
major Importance in Washington
today.
The announcement was that
despite the spectacular efforts of
the Federal Farm Board to peg"
prices Of agricultural commodities,
the general list continues to slip
lower and lower. and during Feb.
ruary reached a new low index
Point for the last 20 years.
In February of 1911 the index
figure was 90. In February of
1881 it was 80. And some
specific commodities, like wheat,
are relatively much lower than
the index.
Farm Board Fails
To party leaders sitting in head,
quarters in Washington and
scanning the political horizon of
1882 this constitutes news Of first
rate Importance. How it can be
turned to party advantage is a
matter that is keeping the lead
ers busy here long after the ad-
journment of the Seventy-first
Congress, which was called into
special session two years ago for
the avowed purpose of putting
agriculture on an economic plane
with industry"
The Seventy-first Congress set
up the Federal farm board and
appropriated half a billion dollars
for its operations, but after two
years the general agricultural in.
dex is still lower than it was be
fore Congress met.
The Republicans, being the
''ins," are naturally worried most
over the situation. But they have
no monopoly on the concern. The
Democrats are worried, too, al
though planning assiduously to
lay responsibility for conditions on
the Republican doorstep.
Recognizing the political dan
ger inherent in the situation, some
of which was strikingly mani
tested in the Republican reverses
in the Middle West last Novem-
ber, the Republicans are busily
engaged in setting up for 1882
"the Republican advisory council
for agriculture" which will func-
ton under the republican ma
tional committee.

NOW that the hectic excitement
In attending the visit of President
Hoover to indianapolis is quieting
down, Republican leaders over the
state are beginning to take stock Of
the results Of the dinner here.
OF this there can be no doubt
it did have a salutary effect on the
G.. o. p. rank and file-yet the re-
suits desired we're not achieved.
Those Republicans who went to
the dinner were intense partisans,
anyhow-for in the majority of
cases they held party or public posts
and their careers depend upon the
success of their group.
Yet even these did not receive the
inspiration they desired.
One state senator who has con-
gressional aspirations, told the
writer:
1--WE came here thinking we would
get all popped up to go out and fight
like the very dickens for a victory
in 1882. 1t was nice dinner, the
service and the meal we're amaz-
ing, considering the size of the
crowd, but the boys just didn't get
the stimulation they expected"
The test Of the entire occasion
was the reception accorded the
President in his ride across the city.
Absence of enthusiasm was noted
by even the most casual observer.
and was commented upon by the
most perfervid Republican writer's
not, however, with the pen, but in
conversations.
The applause that President Hoo
yer received was just the type given
an actor who tried, by bored but
polite, audience.
To compensate for this, the party
workers gave him a tumultuous well
come at the dinner, led, it must be
declared, by the congressional rep
resentatives and Senator Watson.
Behind all this, however, the fact
remains that great difficulty was ex-
perienced in disposing of the
banquet tickets. Those workers who
went out in the state to sell them
did yeoman service, but had it not
been that many bought large blocks
Of tickets and distributed them gra-
tuiously, the attendance would have
been far below what was expected.
For instance, take the case of
Ward Hiner, Indianapolis trucking
operator, former senatorial and con-
gressional aspirant, who purchased
412 tickets and gave them to the
precinct committeeman and ward
chairmen of Marion county.
But for Hiner, the greater ma
iority OF these workers could not
have attended the banquet.
But, all in all, the dinner was a
success-it was a miracle of service
and food and none of the 5000
complained.
Harry Fenton, secretary Of the
state committee; Michael Hanrahan,
headquarters attache, and Paul r.
Bausman, president of the editorial
association, should be given credit
for putting over the event.

TARIFF DEFENSE
JUST POLITICS.
DEMOCRATS CRY
HaWIey- y-Smoot Bill, Year
Old Today, Again
Is AssaiIed.
By DATED Press

BIZ Urited Press
WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE
Hawley-Smoot tariff reached its
first birthday today, more than
ever a center Of economic and po-
litical controversy that promises to
make 1t dominant issue in the
presidential election next year.
President Hoover, speaking for the
tariff on behalf of the Republican
party, said for his anniversary
comment: "We stand upon It,"
Jouett Shouse, chairman Of the
Democratic national executive COM
nittee, retorted that the Presi-
dents defense was one Of "politi-
,al expediency," as was the original
act. "in the face Of the disasters it
has engendered."
Move Is Counter Thrust
The tariff measures first anniver-
sary not only finds the wisdom of
its rates disputed, but sees an or
gani1ed movement to raise many
duties still higher. This movement
is a counter-thrust to the demands
for downward revision from many
other quarters, some Of them Re
publican as we'll as Democratic.
Since Mr.. Hoover signed the bill
on June II. 1880, the following de-
veiopmentS have added fuel to the
controversy:
Increase Of tariff walls by forty
seven other countries and political
units.
A drop Of more than $4,000, ,OoO, 900
IN the United States export and
import trade.
A new movement Of branch fac
tories Of American concerns to for
eign countries, particularly Canada,
70 avoid the tariff.
Acts in 10 Cases
The United States tariff commits
sion, which Mr.. Hoover views as the
machinery for tariff revision, has
during the year instituted numer-
Gus Investigations of tariff sched-
ules. However, it has acted thus
far in only nineteen cases. Mr..
Hoover approved and put into eff
feet three increases and seven de-
creases 1t recommended, and left
seven other schedules as they were.
In three cases. Mr.. Hoover sent
back the commissions recommended
tions for further study.
All of these developments were
cited by Shouse and other Demo-
Gratis as indicating failure of the
Hoover tariff policy.
