ECONOMICS VS.. NATIONALISM

nor years our tariff barriers have kept out
Il imports of Canadian cattle and Canadian
feed for cattle We fed tariff-protected hay
to tariff protected cattle. And under the
blessings of this protection" the American
owners of the meadows and the owners of the
herds " broke because they produced too
much hay and too many cattle, driving the
sale price down to less than production cost.
Through this period, Canada, also with too
much hay and too many cattle, begged in vain
for a share of our market.
This year a blistering sun has burned the
hay and other feedstufTs in the western Mis-
sissippi valley. 1t is a drought that did not
pause as it passed over the United States
Canadian frontier.
Millions of our cattle are starving. There
is a good hay crop in eastern Canada. To get
this hay for our western cattle, President
Roosevelt by executive decree has removed the
tariff on feedstuffs. But western Canada also
has starving cattle that need the hay of east
ern Canada, and therefore has demanded that
the Dominion government embargo exports of
hay.
In days of plenty. our tariffs made trade
with Canada impossible. In these days of
scarcity Canada talks of an embargo to make
trade with the United States illegal.
Natural laws made the United States and
Canada an economic unit. But national laws,
passed at washington and ottawa have di
vided the unit.

EXTOLS PRINCIPLE OF
SPEECH FREEDOM

BY o. S. Baird Sr.
have read with interest and sur
prise, and no little disgust, a letter
in your issue of Aug. II in defense
of capitalism and criticising The
Times for practicing, as well as
preaching, the freedom of the press,
of which we have heard SO much
lately.
take and ready regularly three
daily papers and several weeklies.
The Times is the only one in the
entire list that not only breaches but
practices freedom of speech and
Of the press.
am not Directing to defense
of capitalism; a writer has right
to defend any ism" in which he be-
lieves. But why should he be SO
intolerant of the opinions of 9TH
ers? Why is he so free in exercis-
ing the right to express his own
views while denouncing others for
exercising the right to express
theirs?
If my memory is not at fault, one
of the charges made against the
apostles for their espousal Of
Christianity when they entered
certain city, was "They that have
turned the world upside down by
their teachings have come hither
also"
From that day down to the pres
ent, every new idea has been de-
nounced as radical, unsound, hereti-
cal and dangerous. If Christ him.
self again should appear preaching
the same doctrines He did 1000
years ago, He would be denounced
by the conservatives Of our day as
dangerous radical, hereto and
bolshevik.
Just such utterances as this letter
do more to create Socialists and
Communists than all the teachings
coming from Moscow.
I am not a Communist, but just
plain, old-fashioned Democrat who
believes that that clause in the Con-
stitution giving us all the right to
express our views means something
and is not as Senator ingalls, once
said, AN iridescent dream"
I am more than willing to give
to others the same~right I claim for
myself. Wheeler their ideas agree
with mine or not. More power and
influence to The Times. the only
paper in indianapolis that practices
what it breaches regarding freedom
of speech.

I would like to have space enough
in your paper to answer letter by
A. B. G. am the one who couldn't
see any difference between the New
Deal and the old. I wrote a little
piece to that effect about a week
ago and A. B. G. didn't like it.
If the prices quoted on wages
and commodities now.and a year ago
were not true, why didn't he deny
it? He either is too blind or ignor-
ant to see the truth and believe
it's the latter. The price Of COM
modities still is soaring but wages
are not.
I SAID the cost of living always
has been about three times higher
than wages, and still say it. I
appreciate my wages, but I would
like to see the cost of living some
where near them, anyway. 1t never
will be that way under capitalist
government.
A. B. G., don't try to tell me about
relief or charity. I had that for
about three years and am still on it.

BELITTLES ROBINSONS
STAND ON VETERANS
Bv James F. walker

By James F. walker.
Replying to H. Sprunger's article
on Robinson and the Constitution,
Lii Arthur doesn't even know the
meaning of the word constitution.
He has grabbed up quite few jaw
breakers and he raves and rants and
no one ever yet has discovered any
connection with the real issue in
his campaign.
Since IT'S, he is the only United
States senator who has the honor
of doing the least, knowing the
least. and the least popular.
The only thing that Lii Arthur
can do is to whine to the tune OF
the Ku-KluX Khan.
The veterans bunk he is throw
ing out is only bait for the $1,000
a-year dole for himself. Indiana
voters can not be fooled all the
time; only part of the time.

Indiana should be proud OF Sen

marking the official opening Of his
campaign for reelection shows him
before the whole United States as a
man who has not been frightened
by a violent reactionary government
which has assumed the powers OF
dictatorship TO the extent Of trying
to eradicate the rights OF free
speech and freedom Of the press
He has pointed out fearlessly the
evils of a bureaucratic Socialist

This man was one who last jan

sition of superintendent of this
plant, but was considered incompe-
tent to handle the job, yet the work
he is doing for the Interstate is
work that can not be done by the
present superintendent.

ReincarnatiOn
BY EUGENE RICHART


There is a place you dreamed in
long ago,
That only the free and strong and
wild can know.
There, where the tawny tigresSes
may pass
Soundless as shadows gliding
through the grass,
You we're asleep, and silently be-
came
A creature even loud cities can not
tame.
There were strange scarlet blossoms
growing near.
There were strange forest sounds
for you to hear.
And are you sometimes lonely for
the far
Places where human voices never
areg
DO you wish ever for the alien
Where you once saw a tawny tigress
pass?

SUICIDE SUGGESTED FOR
HUEY AND ADOLF

BY W. F.
see by your paper that Huey
Long der Kingfish as Mr.. Pegler
calls him) is attempting to rule
Louis ana by the force of a Hitler.
Huey Long reminds me very
strongly of Adolf Hitler. He is a
demagog who rants and roars and
promises everything to everybody.
Like Adolf he can't deliver, but he
sure can talk a mouthful.
Huey and Adolf should get to-
gether, talk things over, and then
do the smartest thing for their two
countries-commit suicide.
