No government can promote pros
perity by taxing people to death.
Excessive taxation inevitably results
in limitation of production and
consumption, by closing Of mills and
factories, and discharge of labor.
While government can not be

should not waste taxes wrung from

somebody has endured the agony Of
labor.
The Hoover administration trans
ferred from the shoulders of Euro
pean people to the backs of our own
Americans eleven billion dollars
which should have been invested at
home.
We learned by silly experiment
that a wall high enough to keep
out the products of foreign coun-
tries kept in the products Of our
own.
WHdI We need Is more horse sense
in government, which Governor
Roosevelt represents, against in
competence, greed, waste and po-
htlcal evasion of constitutional
duty, and he should be elected.
The people today demand reform
in the administration of the gov
eminent and the application of
business principles to public affairs.
In the administration of a gov
eminent pledged to do equal and
exact justice to all alike, there
should be no pretext touching the
protection of all citizens in their
rights or security without the sur
render of honest political or reIi-
gious opinion.
There probably never was a more
complete abandonment of common
horse sense in such a time Of dire
depression and distress in any ad-
ministration.

Peoples Voice

Editor Times-The coming presi-
Dental election transcends in i'm
portance all considerations of par
tisanship and party regularity.
The last four years have shown
the people of this nation that when
the Republican leaders claimed they
were the sole custodians of all ma
tional prosperity, they deliberately
were falsifying and perpetrating a
fraud upon the American people.
We are passing through a bust
ness depression which for length
and severity possibly is without
parallel in American history.
l voted for Mr.. Hoover in 1923
and have voted the Republican,
ballot for more than fifty years. a
record Of which I am by no means
proud at this time.
I am a believer in the civil service
system, and when Mr. Hoover was
elected I was under the impression
that he would sustain it, as the cor
rect basis of employment in the
public service, as this is his sworn
duty.
He has the power (as I am in
formed reliably by able lawyers of
scope and resource, who know the
foundations, framework, and an
atomy of constitutional law, and
are familiar with the great streams,
currents, and tides of authority. to
punish and adjudicate the trans
gression, and grant legitimate re-
dress for the contingent wrong I'M
der the merit system, a power he
always has had. In regard to his
action, intention of the Constitution
is known to be indisputable.
Yet appeals for exercise of such
prerogative in the most meritorious
instances we're met by an execu-
tive indifference that was appall-
ing.
I do not claim that the Repub-
lican party was the direct cause OF
our present calamity. But it plain
ly is traceable TO incompetent gov
eminent somewhere.
We are suffering from a disar-

II ALPH EASILY is on the ram
IN page. If you don't happen to
know, Mr.. Easley is chairman OF the
executive committee of the National
Civic Federation. Mr.. EaSley is a
gentleman who sees books in the
brooks and red in everything.
This time it is the colleges and the
universities which have aroused his
rancor. He has gone to the length
of writing a letter to Secretary Doak
about it, and Doak is the last man
in the world, bar one, who needs to
have red called to his attention.
1t is pleasant conceit to imagine
Messrs. Easley and Doak walking
along a country road and coming
suddenly in full view of flaming
sunset. 1t would be funny, but prob
ably fatal.
Ralph Easley states that it is "a
well-known fact" that in many of
our universities a number of profess
sors are atheists, pacifsts, Social
lists, or Communists This may be
a contamination devoutly to be
wished, but it is hardly we'll
known fact, and even if it were Mr..
Easley should draw satisfaction from
the amount of pickering there GER
tainly will be among faculty mem
bers of such widely varying views.
But he derives no satisfaction. In
deed, he suggests that parents
would do we'll to ascertain the iden-
tity of those professors whose teach
ings are so dangerous and see to it
that they are ousted from their
posts of high trust"

OF the sulphur produced in the

the Texas Gulf Sulphur Co., the
Freeport Sulphur Co. and the Du-

Tor. All three are located in Texas.

Memory Kills Effect

NOTHING is more difficult than
IN to explain failure by claiming
success, but that is the task cut
out for President Hoover. He met
it courageously at Des Moines. His
speech was a mastery apology.
No one could listen to it without
feeling of sympathy. The very
tremor of his voice bespoke deep
emotion. The man palpably was
sincere, and one would like to dis
miss his effort, with that thought.
But memory is a stubborn thing,
and memory reminds us that time
was when the President did not
regard this depression as such a
threatening disaster. when he Wis
ualized prosperity as right around
the corner" and he viewed the
problem Of relief and recovery as
not grave enough to warrant call
ing congress.
AS he intimated, other people
may not have sensed the dire perils
with which not only this nation, but
the whole civilized world, were be-
set, but some were alarmed suf1-
GENTLY to advise effective meas
ures long before the President de-
cided that anything more than a
conference was needed.

the very best way to answer any
such challenge as that hurled by
Easley is to see that some are put
into every institution of learning in
the country. Every man who goes
to college should at least have
chance of hearing both sides.

Action VS., APOLOGY

IF President Hoover had been
Il Governor of New York, would he
have had the foresight, or the cour-
age to tackle Tammany, as bossed
by Curry and served by Walker?
J Franklin D. Roosevelt had been
President of the United States,
would he have waited eighteen
months before doing anything
worth while to meet and overcome
the depression.
Read the Presidents speech, and
then read what occurred at Albany
on the same evening.
In one instance you can get an
apology because of action, or lack
of action, which needs it, In the
other, you get action which needs
no apology.
There is virtue in an honest ex-
PLANTATION Of why certain things
had to be done, or why they have
not succeeded any better, but there
is more virtue in doing things which
require no explanation.

Il some very wise recommended

No single factor has done more to
aggravate and prolong this depres-

and the first half of 1881.
When forced to act, President
Hoover did we'll, but he had to be

What does jimsOn weed look like?
It is a common weed in fields and
waste places in the United States
except in the north and west. 1t is
ill-smelling, and poisonous, and has
stout many branched leafy stems
from two to five feet high. The
leaves are large, smooth, thin and
slightly toothed from three to eight
inches long. The flowers, which
bloom from May to September, are
white, funnel shaped, about three
inches long. and have a pronounced
odor. The prickly seed pods, which
follow are about the size of a horse
chestnut. When ripe, these pods
burst open, scattering numerous
poisonous black kidney shaped seeds.

ATEW YORK, Oct s. - Tuesday
IN evening was momentous in this
campaign. President Hoover made
his long-awaited speech at Des
Moines. while New York Democrats
brought their state convention to a
close at Albany.
The President pictured himself as
having saved the world from chaos.
Governor Roosevelt and former
Governor Al Smith proved their
willingness and ability to save New
York city from Curryism.
While the Republican standard
bearer paid his party glowing lip
tribute. these two Democratic lead
ers used the pruning knife on theirs.
The contrast is too clear for mis-
understanding.
Hoover is for victory; Roosevelt
for good government.
