Committee GreetS President
When the train stopped at Newark
at 1:13 o'clock, three minutes late
due to a stop at Baltimore, it was
boarded by the official committee
of welcome, headed by Governor C.
Douglass Buck, National Commit
teeman, u. S. Senator John G. Town
send, Jr., f. V. dupont, chairman of
the Republican State Committee;
Mrs. Frank G. Tallman, Republican
National CommitteewOman, and
others.
The President in his address in
Wilmington, said: MY friends: 1t
is difficult to find words to express
the appreciation that | feel for so
courteous and enthusiastic recep-
tiOn. 1t is. a fine augury of what
Delaware will do on the eighth of
November
This is not an occasion on which
one can discuss national issues at
such length as they deserve. 1 am
speaking in New York tonight and
through the magic of the radio many
of you will listen, and l hope you
will like what will say.
1--WE have been passing through
great crisis for the past three years.
The major part of our difficulties
have come upon us from abroad.
"The protective tariff has saved
this country from twenty years of
chaos and destruction which other
wise would have ensued.
Sees Tide Turning
eve have now turned these meas
ures to recovery. We have carried
the first trenches towards recovery
and indications of victory are COM
ing in from all sides. This morning
am informed that over a million
men have returned to work since the !
adjournment of a Democratic Con-
gress.
This country will recover in its
industries and will recover in its
agricultural fields.
There is one of our Republican |
policies which is one of the utmost !
Importance to the people of Della !
ware, and that is the maintenance |
of the protective tariff.
sour Democratic opponents pro-
pose to reduce that tariff and they |
propose to do it in the face of the |
fact that past fourteen months of |
collapse in the nations abroad have
brought about a tremendous reduc- /
tion in their countries and their
standards of living until the differ
ence' between their purchasing pow
er is tremendously, widened. The
real problem is not the reduction of
the tariff. :.
Currency Imitation Seen Dangerous
Our Democratic opponents have
some measures in respect
to this emergency. One of them is
The proposal to initiate the currency
Of the United States in greenback
This idea is not new, for
every time the country is in distress
his proposal is made. l would like
% be able to explain to you what
destruction imitation and issue of
paper money means,
1T is one of the most vital prob
ems before the people at this time.
Il could go on with a number of
)ther issues but l will not take your
ime. l can assure you that the
Republican party stands for the pro-
ective tariff, rigid economy in gov
1t stands for measures
hat will care for the distressed i
,ending the working out of those gi- ,
,antic instrumentalities for relief of
he country.
Says Issue Not Met
81 cannot find that our Democratic
pponents have met this issue firmly
Il appreciate the enthusiastic
urnout of Delawareans," the Presi-
ent said, "and l think it shows how
Delaware will vote on November 8.
"The special interests of Della
7areans are in the high protective i
ariff which will be maintained un-
er a Republican administration, t
the man in the field and '
he workers at the bench from for S
ign competition with its low stand f
rd of living" S
The President spoke of measures
ndertaken by the administration to u
ring about recovery and said indi- @
ations were coming from all sides v
nat they are succeeding.
