HOOVER LOSES
POWER IN
TARIFFS
Democratic Leaders to Have
Commission Report to
Congress Instead

A Democratic tariff bill,
stripping the President Of his
powers under the flexible
clause of the tariff act to alter
duties after investigation by
the Tariff Commission, was
completed today by the joint
committee of House and Senate
Democratic leaders and will be
introduced in the House by
Representative Collier (DO OF
Mississippi, chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee.
The section of the bill au'
thorizing an international con-
ference specifically bans discus
sion of cancellation or reduction
of inter-governmenatl debts.
President Loses Power
The bill incorporates the so
called Norris-Simmons amend.
ment, authorizing the Tariff Com
mission to initiate changes in
duties and directing it to report
to Congress. The commission
now reports to the President and
he proclaims the changes.
This amendment was stricken
out in conference when the
present tariff act was before Con-
greSs.
Conference Is Invited
The bill authorizes and invites
an international economic confer
ence, to be called by the Presi-
dent, to promote these aims, and
contains provision for the crea-
ton of a consumers council" of
the Tariff Commission.

BOSTON, Jan. 4.-Citing Wash

an American city struggling with
inefficient and inadequate park
ing facilities, Charles w. Eliot I'd.
planning director of the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission. addressed the Harvard
Graduate School of City Planning
here today.
Director Eliot pointed out that
Washington should be leading
rather than tagging behind in
finding a solution to parking
problems, since the Government
is the largest single land owner
and occupant of office building
space in the central business dis
trict.
Analysing fundamental prob
lens of handling traffic, Mr.
Eliot declared that longtime
parking on the streets must be
prevented if automobile COM
muting" is to remain possible.
Open air parking wastes valuable
potential parking space, he said,
and should be replaced by low
cost public garages.

cies which has kept the party and the nation in
complications and catastrophes ever since.
He left them his advocacy of American partici-
patton in the League of Nations and in the League
Court.
He reversed the policy of Washington and JEFF
ferson and Madison and Monroe and Jackson and
Cleveland, and of every great Democrat who had
preceded him, and of every great Republican, too,
and urged American participation in forei gn
entangements.
His policies cost the nation thousands of lives
and thousands of millions of dollars, and con-
tributed no material benefit to any single citizen
who was not war contractor.
His policies also cost the Democratic party it's
leadership in the nation and transformed it's
majority control into an almost hopeless minority.
MORE than that it fixed principles upon the
4VA party which were not Democratic and which
have continually kept it in subjection and defeat.
The Democratic party was elected from power
by resentfu people at the very climax of the con-
clusion of successful war, a situation which had
never occurred before in the history of the coun-
try, and had seldom occurred in the history of any
country.
The Democratic party in 1920 nominated James
M. Cox for the Presidency.
He proclaimed the principles of Wilson and led
the party to disastrous defeat.
The Democratic party in 1924 nominated John
w. Davis for the Presidency.
He, too, proclaimed the principles of Wilson and
led his party to equally disastrous defeat.
THE Democratic party in 1923 nominated Alfred
L E. Smith.
He, too, declared in favor of the League of
Nations and the Wilson policies and that declara-
tion undoubtedly had it's full effect in bringing upon
the Democratic party the greatest electoral defeat
it had suffered since the time of Horace Greeley,
after the civil war.
Mr.. Wilson led his party up political blind
alley, and everyone who has followed in his foot
steps has crashed against the stone wall of defeat
at the end of that blind alley.
The main reason for Mr.. Hoover's unprecedented
unpopularity is that he has always been Will
sonite since he was in the Wilson administration,
and has led his Republican party to Join the Demo-
cratic wreckage at the end of Mr.. Wilson's poiti-
cal blind alley.
r is about time that the Democratic party got
back upon the high road of Democracy.
1t is about time that the American people got
back upon the high road of Americanism

The American public has not
been adequately protected in the
floating of billions of dollars Of
foreign securities, Otto H. Kahn,
partner of Kuhn, Loeb, and Com
pany, admitted to the Senate
Finance Committee today.
He added, however, that he
saw no way of protecting the pub
lie in this matter. except by
education" Senator Johnson
asked:
Don't you think there should
be come legal curb upon the in
discriminate sale of foreign Sc
curities?"
More Harm Than Good
"I don't see how it is posi-.
BILE to deal with this in a way
that is effective and that would
not do more harm than good.
A statute would relieve the in.
dividual investor of exercising
responsibility.
THE public, undoubtedly, has
not been adequately protected
in this regard"
Government approval of for
eign bonds, Kahn declared, would
imply a certain moral responsi.
bility to investors. Kahn said
"The only way is to educate
public opinion"
johnson informed the commit
tee he would show in the course
of the investigation that there has
been a sharp divergence of view
between the Secretary of Com
merce and the State Department
over the granting of foreign loans,
with the former endeavoring to
discourage foreign loans"
Gold Base Secure
None of the governments that
went off the gold standard did so
willingly, Kahn said.
He held that was sound reason
for the preservation of the gold
standard wherever it could be
maintained. He said
"There is no power on earth
which can take the United
States off the gold standard un-
less it so chooses.
''It is conceivable that an
emergency may force the
United States off the gold
standard, but only as a tenn
pOrary measure"

Shipstead Aroused
Senator Shipstead:
"The Republicans have
copied the Wilson program
with few exceptions. Debt can
collation., so far as it has gene,
has been engineered by Repub-
Iican administrations supported
by Democrats.
81 believe Charles Evans
Hughes, before he became Chief
Justice, made a speech in New
Haven which laid the fOunda-
ton for the Dawes plan. Every
President since Wilson has
tried to tie us up with the
League of Nations through the
League of Nations Court.
"A European financier told
me last summer that when the
Dawes plan was proclaimed in
1924, he knew and said at that
time that it was only a ques-
ton of time when the govern
ment of the United States
would have to make a decision
as to who it would protect, the
private investors who bought
bonds from the international
bankers, or the American tax
payers.
"He had no doubt that the
decision would favor the banks
and investors. At the time of
the proclamation of the mora
torium, he said that time is
now here"

Hearst Rap at Un-Ame encan Policies
And His Backing of Garner Hailed

William Randolph Hearst gave
voice to the reawakened spirit of
Americanism and to the rising
wrath against internationaliSm in
Congress, which only fearless
few have had the courage to pro-
claim publicly.
This was the almost universal
reaction of members of Con-
gress, Republicans and Demo.
Gratis alike, to the address of Mr.
Hearst Saturday night over the
nationwide network of the Ma
tional Broadcasting Company from
Los Angeles.
Aids Garner Boom
The purely political observa-
tions of Mr.. Hearst aroused in.
tense interest as they gave ma
tional prominence to the can
didacy of Speaker John N. Gar
ner. of Texas, for the Demo
cratic presidential nomination.
This interest. however. was Sec
ondary to that of the national
istic theme that ran through the
address.
After listening to a clear re-
ception of the radio address over
WRC. the local station of the
National Broadcasting Company,

sentatives enthusiastically in

with Mr.. Hearst on International
policies, they both defended iov,

Blaine Hits Bankers
Senator Blaine, of Wisconsin,

ator Shipstead, of Minnesota,
Farmer-Laborite, both opposed to
President Hoover, commented on
the international phases of the
address.
Representative Bertrand H.
Smell, of New York, Republican
leader of the House:
Il can go along with what
Mr.. Hearst said about America
first. American domestic affairs
are paramount as far as our
people are concerned"
Senator Connally;
81 do not agree with Mr..
HearSt's views regarding Wood
row Wilson.
Il do agree with Mr.. Hearst
regarding the qualities and
qualifications of John N. Gar
ner. Mr.. Garner is a cOur-
ageOus and farSeeing Demo
cratic statesman who has sim
cerely at heart the cause Of
Democracy and the welfare of
the American people, without
regard to station. He is an up
standing, fighting man.
During 80 years in public
life, he has grown in stature,
Year by year, until now he Oc-
cupies a commanding position
in his party and in the ma
ton. If Mr.. Garner is nOmi-
mated for President, he would
make a picturesque and ag-
gressive campaign"
Senator Dill Disagrees
Senator Dill:
81 agree with Mr.. Hearst in
his opposition to any further
sacrifice Of American interests
on the theory Of helping Eu-
rope, but / feel certain that he
is wrong when he says that
Cove nor Roosevelt as Presi-
dent would continue any such
policy.
"If the Democrats nominate
and elect Mr.. Roosevelt with
a Democratic Congress, we
shall have an Administration
devoted primarily to the in
terestS of America"
Senator Wheeler:
II agree entirely with Mr..
Hearst'S statement that the in
ternatiOnal bankers and other
big influences have gambled
with our prosperity as well as
with our politics.

Who Will Be The Next President?

sad day for the Democracy, when Champ Clark
was defeated at the Democratic convention at
Baltimore in 1912
But the Democracy has suffered for it's sins and
may atone for them.
Surely the Democratic party and the nation
CAN learn something from history
Surely the Democratic party and the public-all
of us CAN find guidance for the future in the rec
ord of the past Let us try
UNLESS conditions change radically in the next
- few months, the next President of the United
States is likely to be Democrat.
The Democratic candidates-Mr. Roosevelt Mr..
Baker, Mr.. Ritche, Mr. Smith and Mr.. Young are
all good men in their way, but all interna-
tionalists-all like Mr. Hoover disciples of Wood
row Wilson, inheriting and fatuously following his
visionary policies of intermeddling in European
conflicts and complications.
John N. Garner, Speaker Of the House of Rep
resentatives a position universally pronounced
next in Importance to the Presidency in this re-
public of ours, is loyal American citizen, plain
man of the plain people, a sound and sincere
Democrat; in fact, another Champ Clark.
His heart is with his OWN PEOPLE. His
interest is in his OWN COUNTRY.
THE American people made mighty mistake
in not nominating and electing Champ Clark
President in 1912 instead of Woodrow Wilson.
But that homely philosopher Josh Billings once
said:
Success consists not so much in never making
mistakes as in never making the same kind of
mistake twice."
Now, my friends, am not telling you who will
be the next President.
I am ASKING you who will be the next Presi-
dent, and am urging you to think carefully and
act firmly regarding the political situations Of this
eventful year; and to make sure that you your
selves, select the candidates for whom you are to
vote.
Do not allow the international bankers and the
other big influences that have gambled with your
prosperity to gamble with your politics.
UNLESS we American citizens are willing to 60
y on laboring indefinitely merely to provide loot
for Europe, we should personally see to it, all of u.s.
that man is elected to the Presidency this year
whose guiding motto is "America First"
Seldom in the whole history of the nation has the
selection of a good AMERICAN for President been
so important to the people as it is today
God guide us to choose wisely, so that this year
of grace 1882 may be happy new year for us ALL
