TARIFF ATTACKS
OUTRAGEOUS, is
WATSON'S VIEW
Opens Southern Indiana
Campaign With Defense
of 6. 0. P. Law.

By United Press
MADISON, Ind, Sept. 14.-The
Republican party today launched
its campaign in southern Indiana
with a Ninth district rally here
Senator James E. Watson and Ray
mond S. Springer, candidate for
Governor, headed the list of speak
ers.
Watson delivered a lengthy adj
dress on the tariff question ana
called the attacks on the present
tariff law by Democrats outrage
GUS"
Springer, as in his opening speech
last week at TT. Wayne, outlined his
state program to correct banking
and public utility laws of the state
Watson, in defending the Smoot-
Hawley tariff, pointed out that it
was not an "impenetrable barbed
wire ENHANCEMENT around our bor-
ders," but acclaimed it as lower
than the tariff wall of ,three-fourths
of the leading commercial nations
of the world"
He derided the Underwood law of
1913, pronounced by President Will
son, he said, to be a model tariff
law"
During the period of the Under
wood tariff" Watson declared, "the
United States took 84 per cent of
all the world imports. Under our
present system the United States is
taking 10 per cent Of the total i'm
ports"
Springer, discussing public utili-
ties, said that it should be easier for
a municipality to acquire and OPP
crate its own utility plants, and ad-
vocated a readjustment of utility
rates.
Springer again declared himself
as favoring the shorter working day
in public and private employment.
M r. Sulzer of Madison gave the
address of welcome. He was fol-
lowed by Harry c. Meloy. district
chairman, and Chester A. Davis,
Bedford, nominee for representative
in congress from the Ninth district.

lican county chairmen and vice

BRINGS REPEAL
ISSUE To FORE
Ludlow Foe Makes Attack
on 'PuSSyfooting.'

Prohibition repeal was injected
as a major issue into the Twelfth
district congressional campaign by
William Henry Harrison, Repub-
licsn nominee, attempting to dis
place Democratic Congressman
Louis Ludlow, in opening his cam
paign here Tuesday night.
Harrison said If elected he would
introduce a bill to repeal the Eight
zenith amendment, and give the
people chance to register their de-
Slres in this matter.
Declaring that prohibition is "a
moral issue injected into politics.
he decried "pusSyfooting" regard
ing it..
Reduction of governmental ex-
penditureS and recommendation OF
foreign debts were advocated by the
speaker. He also urged support Of
President Hoover.
The speech was delivered at
meeting of the Second Ward Re-
publican Club at Strohms care ge.

including only Is per cent of the
vessels having speed as great as
twelve knots.
5. None of the tankers and only 10
per cent of the cargo vessels engaged
in. the trade between Atlantic and
Pacific coast ports.
Contrast With Hoover View
DR.. Moulton's findings were in
sharp contrast to those published
by the department of commerce in
1927, when Herbert Hoover was
secretary of commerce. E. S. Gregg,
former chief, and A. Lane Cricher,
present chief of the transportation
division of the bureau of foreign
and domestic commerce, superin-
tended the governmental survey.
They reported that a twenty
seven-foot channel would allow
navigation for more than 88 per
cent of the entrances and clear
ances reported at American ports,
compromising more than 81 per
cent of the lightweight tonnage,
and would accommodate 66.6 per
cent of American cargo vessels of
1000 tons and over, compromising
81 per cent of the lightweight ton
mage.
Criticising this reoprt, DR.. Moul-
ton wrote:
''The analysis leading to this con-
cluSion is misleading rather than
convincing. The tabulation includes
only American ships, and American
tonnage transports only one-third
of our import and export trade.
1T included only freighters among
American vessels engaged in carry
ing trade. That is to say, the i'm

literati, the cognoscenti and first
nighters in general, as to how Gym
ara" should be pronounced.
Some hit on the right way at once.
Others insisted that the correct de-
livery was Sin-a-ra, with the accent
on the first syllable; others on Sin
ara with the accent on the last
syllable; others on Sirnerer with the
accent falling on all syllables at
once and crushing them.
Helps Ticket. Sale
The Shubert officers were besieged
with inquiries. The men in the box
Office were so pestered by seekers
after the right pronunciation and to
inquiries as to who and what and
where was Cynara that they sold
orchestra seats at balcony prices.
Obviously, the first step was to
seek knowledge at the source. So
cable messages were sent to H. M.
Harwood and R. Gore Browne. the
authors of the play, asking for a
ruling which would be authoritative.
The authors personally refused to
commit themselves but said they
would inquire.
They consulted DR.. Robert Mac
David, professor of English litera-
ture at Oxford university. He af-
f1rmed that Syn-a-ra, with the ac-
cent on the first syllable, was cor
rect. That wasn't enough, said the
authors, they wanted confrmatory
opinion. So DR.. MacDavid put the
question to the other members OF
the university faculty and they
backed him up.
They're Not Satisfied
Even now not satisfied, the play
wrights went to the original fount
of the title. Through a close friend
of Ernest Dowson, whose poem
Cynara, and its line: Il have been
faithful to thee, Cynara! in my
fashion" furnished thea inspiration
for the novel on which the play is
based, they learned that the poet
himself used the pronunciation laid
down by the oxford scholars.
But there were still other points
to be settled. Was Cynara proper
name or an improper one? Was il
astrological or symbolical? Did il
signify an inhabitant Of the vege-
table or animal kingdom? Lady OF
gent? Or neuter? Delving into
dictionaries and encyclopedias
proved disconcerting.
The savants and stunts in the
end agreed with the conclusion OF
the property man who said, there
amt no such person. That poet
fellow just hitched name to a
Jane that gave him the gate

SALES TAX JOBLESS AID
PROPOSAL UP IN ILLINOIS
Senate Will Vote Today; 100000
Held Near Starvation.

By Uhted Press
SPRINGFIELD Ill. Sept. IA
The Illinois state senate will vote to-
day upon two sales tax bills, both
of which are designed to provide
dollars in the multi millions for I'M
employment relief,
After hearing two members of
the Illinois emergency relief COM
mission predict that 100000 persons
in the state would face starvation
by Oct. l, unless the solons came
to their relief, the senate advanced
TO third reading the bills by Senator
Richard Barr of Joliet and Senator
Martin Carlson of Moline
Bars bill would authorize any
county to levy sales tax not to ex-
coed per cent, with the proceeds
going to feed the joblesS. An amend
ment exempting the sale of food. by
Senator Simon Lantz of Conger-
vile, was adopted.
CarlSon's bill would tax everything
sold at retail in the state 2 per cent,
with the exception of farm prod
ucts. He said it would provide be-
tween $75,000,000 and $l00,000,0O0
for the unemployed.
Under it the state would collect
the tax and then send back TO the
counties the funds gathered in each
one.

cargo vessels, which typically are Of
larger size, are omitted. -.
Many Small Craft
"The 88 per cent is based on en-
frances and clearances. Data for
entrances and clearances cover all
sorts of small craft, including sail
boats and sea bargeS, which are
engaged in local commerce along
our international boundary.
when the calculation is based
on entrances and clearanceS, these
small boats are given a very heavy
weighing, because they operate on
short turn aroundS, and enter or
leave our ports more frequently
than do the larger tranSoceanic yes
sells, often in ballast"
The Great Lakes-St. Lawrence
Tidewater Association, leading Or
ganization in the production of the
seaway, published in 1880 reply to
DR.. Moulton, written by R. S. Mac
Elwee, shipping expert.
MacElwee ridiculed DR.. Moulton's
contention that clearance OF two
feet six inches was necessary for
navigation of the channel, saying
that DR.. Moulton evidently believed
that the vessels always would "be
loaded to plimsoll," with the Great
Lakes always at the mean low water
mark.
Could Load Light
MacElwee pointed out that YES
sells with a draft of more than
twenty-Seven feet actually could
navigate the channel by loading
wheat light at the lake ports and
topping off at Montreal.
MacElwee challenged DR.. Moul-
tons conclusion that the better class
vessels would not, even if they could
avail themselves of the Great Lakes
traffic, due principally to the long
winter season when lakes are ice
locked.
Where there is cargo, actual or
potential" MacElwee said, vessels
will be chartered, purchased, or
especially constructed to go there"
