ministration. For years there has been
a continuous expansion Of governmental
functions in every direction, and a
necessary increase in expenditures.
There should be a systematic investi-
CATION and reorganization of govern
mental agencies with view to elm
mating Implications and Of uniting
bureaus when union is possible without
impairing the efficiency of the depart
ments. Four years ago I advocated the
abolishment of all unnecessary boards
and commissions and the consolidation
of bureaus. l was encouraged to do
this because of the savings brought
about by the movement started by me-
some 20 years ago. to authorize the
President to consolidate the ports of
entry. This was authorized and $780,
900 a year has been saved every year
since the order Of consolidation was
signed on March 4, 1918, by President
Taft.
Since then few other consultations
have been brought about and every one
has resulted in saving in expenditures
1t is pleasing to note that the President
has been authorized to a limited ex-
tent to make consultations and it is
believed that the result will be bene-
fetal and that the savings will be
worth while I hope changes may be
made that will result in reduction of
taxes in place of increasing them. Ex-
penses of Government should be re-
duced wherever and whenever it is
possible to do so. A policy should be
adopted that will bring our govern
mental expenses within its income.

would force them not only to flood the
markets with cattle and hogs, but to
do so even before the animals were
ready for the market. OF course, 1t
meant ruin to these men. l made
trip to Washington in their behalf and
was soon Joined by a committee OF 28
farmers and stockmen, but we were
unable to get relief.
This was followed by information
from other countries OF nood OF ag-
ricultural products in 1920. Tne I'M
portation of such products in that year
amounted to- in round numbers. S3.-
900 10000 This was disastrous 10
the American farmer and resulted in
the demand for and the enactment OF
the emergency tariff act OF 1921 TO
protect farm products. This act and
the regular act that followed resulted
in a drop of over Sl.000,000,000 in the
importation of agricultural products the
first year it was in operation.
The Congress has been trying to solve
the farm problem for the last IL years,
and in that time between 25 and 80
bills have been enacted into law, with
the hope and expectation that they
would give agriculture the greatly
needed and deserved relief. but regret
to say that, while some of them have
helped to some extent. yet most of them
have not come up to the expectation
of those who introduced and supported
them. While this problem has not been
and should not be partisan, yet the
Republican party wishes to solve 1t and
is anxious to bring the farmer into
situation of equality with industry. One
of the problems is to reduce the spread
between what the producer on the
farm receives and what the ultimate
consumer pays for such products. An
other is to provide the farmers better
marketing facilities. l have for years
believed a national cooperative system
would help solve the problem, and l
still believe such system properly or
panized and conducted would enable
the farmer to get better price for his
products and at the same time do no
injury to those who deal honestly in
the buying and selling of farm products,
while protecting the farmer against
those who will not give him square
deal.
Our party cannot be charged with
having neglected the question because
since March 4, 1921, 1t has enacted into
law various measures intended to solve
the problem. These acts were not only
supported by the various farm organ1za-
tions, out many of them were proposed
by such organizations. This is evi-
denced by the report Of the American
Farm Bureau Federation of April 6,
1923. from which I quote the following:
THE passing of the Sixty-seventh Con-
gress into history marks an epoch in
the undertaking of the American Farm
Bureaus national legislative campaign.
1T is not too much to say that the
26 laws passed by that Congress, which
we're initiated or supported by us. are of
far more Importance to American agri-
culture than all the legislation relating
Evening star., 1932-08-19

to agriculture passed since the adoption
of our Constitution"
Since then a tariff act has been
passed which materially increased the
duty on the products of the farm. The
1880 tariff act increased the rates on
agricultural products by 80 per cent and
on industrial products only IL per cent.
Since its enactment world conditions
have been such that its main benefit
has been to shut out the products of
agriculture coming from other countries.
but the condition of the consumers in
our own country has been such that
there has been a greatly depressed home
market This condition at home will
be cured when our own people have a
greater purchasing power, which can
only be brought about when our work
ing men are employed at reasonable
and just wages. 1 was privileged to in
troduce two measures to relieve the ag-
ricultural situation. One was to pro-
vide for a national cooperative mar
keting organization 1t gave the farm
ers complete control of the organization.
1t made provision for the farmers to be
informed as to supply and demand. 1t
enabled the producers through their or
ganization to hold their non- -perishable
products in case of an over-Supply in
the market centers. There was no
handling. either buying or selling, Of
farm products by the Government.
This measure was pronounced sound
by many of the leading friends and sup
porters of the farmers in Congress and
it was unanimously reported from the
Committee on Agriculture of the Sem
ate on Junes6, 1924 1t was claimed
that it would sake time to work out its
provisions and that emergency legisla-
ton was needed so this measure intro
duced by me was not acted upon by the
Congress. The other measure which
introduced was one of the IS that re-
ceived favorable consideration. 1t made
provision for the Government to invest
$4,000, 900 to help the Federal land
banks to meet the applications of the
farmers for loans. One OF the members
of the board expressed his approval in
the following terms:
Il can hardly conceive OF anything
that you might have done which Is 60
ing to have such far-reaching and last
ing beneficial effect upon the agricul-
tural situation now and in the future.
In this last Congress further relief
was given to the farm loan banks.
In addition to the legislative enact
ments of a general nature the Republic
an administration has sponsored special
relief measures for conditions brought
about by floods, droughts, the fruit fly
and grasshopper plague.

Labor

II can be safely said that never In
the history of labor movements. any
where, have such distinct gains been
made toward the realization Of labor's
laudable aims as have been made In
our own country.
The hours OF labor have been reduced
generally from 10 and IL to 8. Inven-
tions. improved machinery and
changed conditions have caused a new
goal OF 40 hours a week tc be set by
labor and in my mind 1t Will be reached
before long. The five day week should

The rise of organized labor is the
story of muscle and brawn united with
ntelligence-labor in fighting for its
rights meets intelligence with intelli-
gence; reason with reason; and facts

The strikes OF the past have largely
disappeared and in their place has
come the ever-increasing recognition
of the wisdom of arbitration and CO.

note that the workers and the en-

Women and Government

No evolution in human history is
more important than the expansion of
the powers and privileges of modern
women The women of our country
have made a great fight and accom-
plished much in their contest for legal,
educational, occupational and political
freedom and it was not until our own
generation that equality with men be-
fore the law was extended to the
women.
1t was a pleasure to me to take an
early stand for women suffrage and to
assist those who came to Washir gton
in their efforts to secure the submits
sion of the nineteenth amendment
granting Nation wide suffrage to their
sex. I have always supported legisla-
ton beneficial to the women of the
country.
1t has been gratifying to note the
important part they have taken in the
management and control of the
country's affairs; and the efforts they
have made to enforce recognition Of

immigration

The fear of deluge of immigrants
from war-stricken Europe resulted in
the passage on May 20, 1924, of dras-
tic restrictive immigration law. The
wisdom OF this policy of protecting
American working men by the rigid re-
striction of immigration cannot be
doubted. The result of the enactment
of the law in 1924 has been beneflcla.
to the workingmen OF the United
States; beneficial to those foreign born
as we'll as to those born in this country.
The number of immigrants admitted to
the United States from all countries in
1914 was 1,218.480, while only 303. 1888
departed. In 1928, after the law had
been amended, the number admitted
dropped to 1902 and 1889 departed.
In 1881, when the law was rigidly en-
foased, only 1883 were admitted, while
33.186 departed, OF which departures
1858 were by deportation. The re-

TOPEKA, August 19.-The text OF
Vice President Curtis address in ac-
cepting denomination:
Mr.. Chairman, Senator Dickinson,
members of the Notification Committee,
friends and neighbors:
It gives me pleasure to add word
of welcome to these distinguished guests
in the city CT my birth. Let me say
to you, ladies and gentlemen, that this
vast assemblage of my fellow citizens
is gathered without regard to party to
show its good will to a lifelong neigh
Dor and to recognize compliment paid
him by your presence in this city TO,
day. Dull would I be in feeling and
lacking in taste did 1 fail to sense this
and to express gratitude for this gen.
erous manifestation of friendship. 1
thank you all for your presence and
your esteem which I shall ever prize
and ever strive to merit.
Ladies and gentlemen Of the COM
mittee, you represent the Republican
voters of AZ States of the Union. You
bear the commission of the Republican
convention which met in Chicago in
June. That convention declared anew
our fidelity to the historic Republican
party. Our purpose is to carry for
ward the work 1t has so we'll done
since it's organization and to promote
the further progress Of the United
States. The convention adopted a
platform which rings true for patriot
ism and constitutional government and
worthily bestowed denomination upon
our present Chief Executive, Herbert
Hoover.
You, ladies and gentlemen, notify
me that the convention named me as
the party's candidate for Vice Presi-
dent. Our party has but once before
conferred a denomination for the office
upon a Vice President, and this dis
tinction is appreciated and its value
is augmented by the generous words
in which you, Senator Dickinson, an
nounce it. I assure you it gives me
pleasure to accept. As loyal Repub-
lican, disciple Of the party OF Abra-
ham Lincoln, I stand upon the party
platform I approve Of Mr.. Hoover's
admirable statement Of Republican
principles and achievements contained
in his address accepting the renomi-
nation for President.
The Republican party has never
claimed to possess within its member
ship a monopoly of patriotism and vir-
tue Just as in the period of the World
War we Republicans put patriotism and
loyalty to our country above party poll
tics so In the present economic crisis
was pleased indeed to witness in the
last session that our friends on the
other side OF the aisle put patriotism
above politics and supported many OF
the recommendations Of our President,
Herbert Hoover.
Upon three different occasions since
I have been in public life and when
very serious situations existed I have
seen both sides of the aisle stand by
the President regardless of party lines.
The first was in 1898, the second dur
ing the World War and the third dur
ing the last two and one-half years.
