Tariff Prevents Return OF
Prosperity.

II E. Miles, Chairman of the Fair Tariff
League, in public statement. referring
to the war debt moratorium. says:
The eagerness with which all nations
follow us is made clear by the debt mora
torium; also their inability to act without
leading"
Applying these facts to the tariff stua-
ton. Mr.. Miles continues:
We have prevented the return of pros
perity by refusing to lead or permit of
reasonable tariff reductions by all nations,
reductions permitting of production because
OF the freer exchange Of commodities be-
tween nations within the limits Of moderate
tariffs. Nothing is easier if the United
States will lead, but present indications
are that it would sooner lose billions and
continue the present situation essentially
unchanged. All this because relatively
few over-protected industries here which
control elections and dictate tariffs will not
give up billions Of tariff graft over and
above honest protection
Mr. Miles statement makes it clear what
kind Of products might be exchanged be.
tween the various nations under a reason
able tariff. and thus set in motion one
means. at least. of economic recovery. He
said;
IAN essential point. commonly over
looked or concealed, is that the highly fin
iehad nroducta x,h;ch Eurooa ..,o,,Id oa.d ,,o
are so different from our own as to be
supplementary rather than competitive.
differing from ours in design and quality.
For instance. linens, which we do not make,
Scotch tweeds. Haviland china, French
gowns, distinguished for their hand work.
which we do not do, special food prepara-
tons not produced here. ETC. All these to
be paid for by our farm products and our
ordinary factory products that other coun-
tries crave"
Mr.. Mills points out that imports that
strictly compete with 35 per cent Of all
our manufactures eqused only one-half
OF one per cent OF domestic production, and
with other competing imports added only
one and one-half per cent. The competitive
one per cent. he says, came in less because
OF low foreign costs than because of excts-
sive tariff profiteerine prices here.
by closing our doors ON these" he adds,
I'VE close all other doors against us. In
stead OF lowering our tariff in $780, we
raised the average duties. actually paid
26 IL per cent. 10 so doing. we shocked
the economic and moral sense of the world.
Many duties are doubled, some quadrupled,
and worse, on products produced here
about as cheaply as there. This is pro-
lection perverted and gone mad. South
America shares the misery Of Europe on
which it depends for exports and income.
Only mighty manifestation Of public
sentiment will put our few profiteers where
they belong. Mr.. Miles says. land when
this is done. the world will be back at
work"

Central State Voters Not Fooled.

The Republicans are using Tammany as
a red herring to divert public attention off
the main trail, according to the Sioux City.
Iowa. Tribune.
1T would be equally as logical" says
the Tribune, for the Democrats to stress the
horrors Of Republican misrule in Chicago
But neither Tammany ism nor Thompsonism
is an issue in the coming campaign"
What the central State voters are inter
ested in, according to the Tribune. is what
the Republican chieftains have to say
about $500 hogs. 30-cent corn. and cheap
wheat. They are interested in the Smoot-
Hawley tariff which was supposed to help
them and didn't. They want an explana-
ton Of why the Farm Board scheme turned
ont to be such flop They want to know
how the Republicans proposed to make up
that bilion-dollar Treasury deficit.

want to talk about commodity prices. tariffs,

Ethel Picks Walter

When Ethel Barrymore closed
Scarlet Sister Mary in Chicago
after a disastrous career, every
body was hot and bothered and
perhaps, disappointed. At any
rate Queen Ethel slapped her
leading man, Walter Gilbert, in
a wordy argument following the
final curtain.
Later Mr.. Gilbert accepted the
position of leading man for a
post season tour in THE Love
Duel" which included all the
one-night stands between here
and Texas. It was highly
prosperous venture enabling the
Messrs. Shubert to recoup some
of the losses incurred when Miss
Ethel decided to black-up.
Now that the Barrymore plans
include. a revival of School for
Scandal" opening in California
and working East, her leading
man again will be Walter Gil
bert, performing the role OF
Charles Surface.
She likes Walter Gilbert'S act
ing and so, may we add, did
most of the National Stock Com
pany's large and devoted 1880
following.

Well Grounded Editor

Since the day we refused
Claude Graham Whites generous
invitation to fly from Squantum
Aviation Field around Boston
light. a number of profers to
soar have come the departments
way but they still leave us cold.
There was the chance to wing
it to Churchill Downs and see
Gallant Fox win the 1880 Darby,
the bid to be Bill Ferguson's
guest at a Broadway showing Of
Trader Horn" and return via the
ozone the same night, a later
suggestion that Miss Grace Moore,
opera and film prima donna, had
planes available for Washington
guests to fly to the Broadway
premiere of her first film.
The latest comes from the
Fanchon and Marco revue top
o. The World" due at the Fox
Friday. and suggests we be
seated in the plane which on
Sunday morning will attempt to
create new Washington altitude
record. Thank you much Manager
Crull and Ed Waite, but Sunday
is my day for overtime and
sustained sleeping. And, by the
way, I can hit the ceiling without
half trying or getting into a
plane. just another real good

Novel Stunt Tonight

Former Radio Commissioner o.
H. Caldwell, now an editor, thinks
up unusual stunts for the radio
and tonight will project another
of these novel talks over an N.B.C.
network from 6 to $50, our time.
The report of a dropped cleo
tron, the tiniest thing known, will
boom over radio speakers through
out the country when this scien-
tific experiment is made by
N. C.
An electron measures one ten
trillionth Of an inch in diameter,
and it would take five billion
billion Of these electrons to weigh
a pound. Yet so delicate are the
instruments used in radio, that
the tiny crack" heard when the
ultra-microscopic electron strikes
will be picked up by the micro
phone and broadcast during the
talk.
