FRIDAY , NOVEMBER 4, 1332 TARIFF RALLYHOO FOR NAUQHT Both Republican and Democratic campaign speakers have been shouting much about the tariff, each trying to make it appear that one is answering the others and each, trying to in- t o r n its followers as to which is right. Neither are discussing the fundamental.principle o f a tariff that is o f vital interest to American -agriculture and industry. The whole tirade is what the street urchin calla-^-balogna* The Republicans are trying to sugar-coat a bad mess o f their own creation, The Democrats o f course are having no trouble picking flaws in it, and neither offering a single ray o f hone to a suffering business nation fo r a chance to right condi­ tions W e need to point to the p r ' ?f o f that assertion by only refering to the gradual decline o f ne stock market. And who would take a chance fo r speculate nt or investment on such a situation’ Both may fo r a time blind and fo o l the electors in a campaign but hard-headed business men are deciding fo r them­ selves and that decision is. not going to be favorable to either political party as the tariff is now discussed. W e have pointed out more than once that world conditions are not what they were thirty years ago. The days o f free trade with foreign nations seem to have vanished and the world mar­ kets are now closed to our farm and industrial products with a higher tariff wall than this nation established. This gives the U. S, A. a new problem but leaders o f each o f the dominant par­ ties are trying to apply the old ru le s / ‘ . The New York Times, the leading newspaper m this na tion and read by more business people directly interested in fi­ nance, manufacturing and merchandising, than-any two daily papers published in the Country, supports a reciprocal tariff to remedy the situation and get foreign markets open where farm and industrial products can find a market. The Times says in the Tuesday issue; “ The trade agreements recently concluded at Ottawa, to the great disadvantage o f American exporters, were based on substantial preferences within the British Em­ pire. Similar treaties have been proposedson the Continent o f Europe. The'Ministry o f Commerce has recommended that a- bandon all o f her present commercial treaties and remake them on a basis o f reciprocity. Sixteen countries, including such im­ portant trading nations as Germany, Argentina and the Nether­ lands, have notified the British Government o f their desire to negotiate reciprocal agreements. I f the United States wishes tc stand aside, to ignore what is happening in the rest o f the world and to lose Opportunities to sell its goods in foreign markets, it is privileged to fo llow such a course. But if we hope to obtain real advantage in international trade, we must be prepared tc offer something in exchange.” , The Times is speaking in the interest o f restoring business, not the advancement o f any political party that would toy with the livelihood o f our people fo r partisan advantage. To hear President Hoover, he is the only living person that can put “ new wine in old battles” ; and to hear Candidate Roosevelt he is the only living person that can put “ old wine in new bottles.” The President being in power carrys the greatest responsibility but seems content to sit back and watch Canada and England take the cream o f the world 's business— while 11 million men and women in this country are without jobs and industry paralyzed. HAVE WE LOST ALL SENSE OF REASON ? While the nation is suffering financial ills, mostly due to the moratorium, granted Germany, and adopted by other creditor nations.of this country, now.comes Gov, White in the heat of~a campaign trying to enforce by. more or less volunteer methods, f o r lie nor evqn the President o f the United States can set aside , the provisions o f the constitution o r statuatory law, to provide a moratorium f o r farm and home owners that cannot meet their financial obligations. The moratorium has been the greatest curse in flicted on th e ,peop le o f any nation that boasted o f its high standard o f business ethics and respect fo r fundamental law. It has been the breeding place that all who cared might conceive.the idea that individual debts could wait just like that o f nations, No one can have any more heart-felt sympathy fo r those heavy burdened with deb t that was created under a pferiod o f inflation and must now be paid with deflated money. I f such a rule as proposed b y Gov. White could be worked out as a pri­ vate transaction no one could object, all parties interested be­ ing satisfied, But to. make the moratorium a public Issue with a semi-quasi public board to h ear such cases is beyond all rule o f reason. We have no hesitancy in saying that much ,o f our present situation is directly due to the German moratorium and the hundreds o f millions loaned that country, depleting our fi­ nancial structure in this country. The only interests benefited with the German moratorium were that o f -our international bankers. The adoption o f the White moratorium, i f it became wide­ spread, and w e see no method to hold it'in check, it will wreck every savings bank and building and loan in Ohio. It is easy to attract attention and sympathy from those now in financial dis­ tress, but who is there to speak f o r the hundreds o f thousands o f Ohioans that are not in debt and have their money deposited in these savings banks and building and loans? It is their hard earned money that is at stake and seldom do we hear o f anyone being interested in their cause. But there is— the board o f di- rectors that will fo llow sound judgment and stand by the laws o f the state, irrespective o f a president or governor’s morator­ ium, These men have a, moral and legal responsibility that can not be shunned. W e have always opposed the German mora­ torium, .We still oppose such acts fo r it has a damning influence and creates an erroneous impression that even those able have as much right to delay debt payment as those unable to pay. ✓ ....... •••■•-.. - .......... . . A LONG, SLOW AND PAINFUL RECOVERY ‘ Many are o f the opinion that we will all wake up some morning shortly after November 8th, walk out into the bright sunlight and find on the fron t doorstep——Prosperity, back where we were previous to the debacle in October 1920. I f all dreams came true that would be our first wish but such things ^ a/ ; Nation’s Business in the current issue has « ? / S lloY lnF which is wel1 worth While: « w f resident Hoover is reelected, business will continue on a long .s low , and frequently painful recovery, w i GoYernar Roosevelt is elected, business will continue 0,1 a«m?8r,A ow> aiid frequently painful recovery. t Ih e temper o f Congress is perhaps more important to business than is the complexion o f the President . . . .The real inend or foe o f business is the Congress.” f W i 1 c? $ t e d over who is to be the next af e d f 7 mi^10n People will have the legal 2 ® ^ te.-Tuesday, and probably not ten per cent o f number will give individual attention to the choice o f the proper man fo r Congress or the United States Senate. It-is in ii,® 8 we will find the friend or fo e o f busi­ ness. Most o f these legislators will be chosen whether they are fry , whether they will stand hitched u n dS ordera o f a political dictator, or how to the unscrupulous lobbyist that has reSn ts f* measum to Rut over to til<Jadvantage o f those he rep- « « that Americans pay the highest re­ spect to both the President ahd his high office— but w * * timportant duty in using care in the selection o f who L s t f t u X l \w ^ 11 i8V e law * th a t th e P r e s id e n t W ^ r ^ a r d e r f l ^ ' t J ^ t e 1 ^ as a t i m y e a r s a g o w h en it ba t o f d e c e n t * 1° the m t! on in Congress, Er . y2, : o u f PuHtics has become so degraded, that a f ! 4? * government is only a polit- thA flea£ being a £«Pch and judy ” character, operated with a string by an unseen hand. With the election lees then a week away we may next expect to heqjf the predictions from the leaders, of the major parties as to results next Tues­ day, If result* are based vn at wild claims and promise* from each aide a* has been made in the campagin, one may expect to beat of most anything. Two factors show the drift of senti­ ment, the straw votes, and the way Wall street bets are made. It » » peculiar thing to hear some people re fer to the straw votes. When the vote favors their candidate they are quick to quote the straw vote results, For instance four years ago when the vote strongly favored Hoover against A1 Smith, Hooverites had great faith in the straw vote. This year every vote in the country shows Roosevelt the favorite, and Hoover supporters are inclined to question it. But the fact remains that the straw vote has never failed. Those who have been taking much interest in reduction of public salaries will have the opportunity soon o f placing a knotty problem to Sen. S. D. Fes*. The Senator is to make a talk next Monday night in Xenia and those interested in the reduction of public salaries might suggest that he discuss that feature in his campaign discussion. In view o f the recent pub, ication of members, of families o f senators and congressman on the fed- ral payroll, it would be interesting to hear what the Senator has to say a- bout his daughter-in-law, a resident )f Toledo, being on the government •ayroll, white residing with her hus­ band and family in Toledo, An effort was mad* in the last session o f con­ gress to make the practice illegal bat the bill was,defeated—as might have t>eon expected, Prosperity still hat a place in the life of a senator at $12, 000 a year ahd a congressman nt $10 000, with all expenses. In comparison school teachers should be drafted t work for nothing that prosperity car ie a part of the life o f senators ant congressmen and their families, Betting in New*York is 16 to .5 that Roosevelt will be elected. Betfe o f 2 to 1 that Roosevelt will carry New York state. 2 1-2 tq one that Roose­ velt will win Hoover’s home state of California. Even money.that Hoover will not carry eight states Tn the elec­ tion. , . ' Less than three months ago Wal. Street was laying” wagers at 3 to m Hoover’s election. Since the cam? paign has gone into full swing the banking and brokerage houses have flopped to Roosevelt, However the billion-dollar international bankers are still for Hoover. Saving the farmer is a favorite past time with- the politicians, but this is all being done before the election. A f­ ter the election it is everybody for himself. To hear some o f the radio twaddle about what has been done to save-farms for owners makes us still more confident that Bamum had the right appraisal o f the sucker list. We hear much that the Hoover ad ninistration has done in the way of saving farms from foreclosure. This 's as empty as the air that carries the story. Take a look about you in your )\vn county. Did the administration save a farm sold under foreclosure a, few days ago that lies, east o f town? What about five other farms in ‘the southern part o f the county all sold last week and under a federal land sank? After election every fanner that is delinquent' on his note will save himself. The office seeking-list mak­ ing such promises now will, have other duties^ after the election. Just sue) deceptive statements are going to tx a big surprise to thousands after November 8th. No President o f the United States, no matter who he is, ot any governor, can set aside the stat­ utes or change fundamental princi pies. Henry Ford and Gene Tunney have come more in public prominence with­ in the past week than formerly. The former industralist that gets his trac­ tors made in Ireland on cheap laboi and importedjnto this country free of any tariff, has taken a public stand and urged his men to vote for Hoover. Gene Tunney, noted sportsman of the boxing arena, has been campaigning in sporting circles for Roosevelt. The joke on both Ford and Tunney is that neither will get to vpte in their respec tive states for both failed to register. You will be, given a chance to vote on whether Ohio shall have a consti­ tutional convention f t the polls Tues­ day,' You can vote “ Yes” or “No/. But do you have any information o' the subject to base a vote one way ci another? The old rule of “When in doubt vote 'No' ” never fails. If a majority qf .electors favor a conven­ tion delegates will be chosen in No­ vember 1933 and the convention will be held in January, 1934. What ever amendments are agreed upon must be submitted to the electors for approval Iii November 1934. The constitution for the state was first adopted in 1851 and amendments were adopted in 1875 1883, 1885, 1903 and 1905, all being of minor importance. In 1910 the electors, voted', for a. change and it wasiheld in 1912/ 42 proposed amend­ ments were submitted to the people and 34Awere approved. Since that time other* amendments have been written into, the constitution, the most imporant one, being that on prohibi­ tion. ■There-are qmny reasons why we should have another convention. For nstance our senatorial districts are >ut of line by- population, hi n use for 81 years. It would be“the opportunity o f consolidating many state departmentsfand changes in^ county government for economy. I'ho, ourts need revision* for instance one ourt in one district holds a law un- onstitutional and .in another district t is held constitutional. Do away vith the grand jury, now a needless expense. The legislature instead of having two -houses,, only one. Elect 'ovemors, for four-years and one term mly. Elimination o f one half o f our >resent election expense, Consolida- ion o f rural counties where the peo­ ple desire it for economy. Return to the electorate the power it once had yy abolishing most all commissions, low nesting places, for politicians. A number o f reasons can be listed why we should have ' another convention but only the voters have ,the say. I stand for:- 1. Law Enforcement* 2* Reduction in the operating cost of the Sheriff’s office, 3.

A New York organization headed by high war or aviation offl cers -drawing pensions from the gov­ ernment, having seen service before the World War, now attack the Legion as-a tax eating organization that is causing more harm than the depres sion. The American Legion has is­ sued a broadside bulletin denying the charge with the injunction that “ The time to meet and expose the character of these attacks nowl” The broadside widely distributed among-all veterans shows the National Economy Leagiie to compose many notables for the cancellation of war debts in the inter­ est of our international bankers. The millionaire income tax payers are in­ cluded as being opposed to the Legion in this movement. Campaign speak­ ers are attacking the Legion but nev­ er say the administration loaned many million to Germany to pay her soldiers and now plead poverty for our own boys. Had these millions been paid to the Legion and closed the bonus question home markets would have been aided. Thousands now depend­ ant and out of jobs are on charity at the expense of those having positions. The administration to balance the budget, part of which was caused by Germany refusing to pay her loans or Interest, put a tax on electric light bills, gasoline, automobiles, etc. The German soldiers were paid with our money and our boys told to wait, cold and hungry. The Cincinnati Times-Star has been taking a straw vote within Hamilton county, sending a double popt-card to every twelfth registered* voter. The comment on Some o f the cards re­ turned read such as this; “Neither one any good.” in regard to candidates for president. Another was: “ I’ve been fooled long enough. Won't vote for The election Tuesday will attract; more voters than any time in the his­ tory of the nation frfem all reports. It is reported from registration fig-j urea that 47,600,000 persons are to be i at the polls. Four years ago 42 mil-] lion were registered but only 63 mil-) lion voted, In Ohio this year 3,260,- 000 are- entitled to vote. Four years sgo 2,750,000 were registered but only 2,508,343 voted* With 11 million per­ sons out of employment it appears that most of Ihem intend to vote. The average normal stay-at-home vote is! 15 per cent but this year it is predict­ ed this percentage will be greatly re­ duced. Ohio had a gain o f 500,000 in registrations; Wisconsin, 620,000; California, 576,000; New York, 340.- 000; Indiana, 325,000. There was a time when business in­ dexed by how the stock market stood. Today there seems to be no public confidence in Wall Street. It might also be said the country was so near broke there ware few left that could purchase stocks and bonds. Again who wants to purchase stocks and bonds when most of them do not pay dividends? That big boom set for the stock market just before the elec­ tion seems to have faided. The mar­ ket slips a little each day and is now where it was along last June with many stocks. As low as stocks are at this time, the re-adjustment period has not arrived. Behind the curtain is the program of reorganization that must come to squeeze out the water. Hogs and wheat have traveled the same road as stocks and -bonds. It? was only a few days ago that wheat reach­ ed a new low, where it was back 800 years ago when Queen Elizabeth held the reigns. “ Lib” must have' had a federal farm board in her day. If the wheat farmer has had an encouraging note from all of the political speeches on how to restore wheat we have not hear about it. The. lowly pig has set a new low, top being $2.85 in St. Paul a few days ago. Farmers are finding it hard to get a market anywhere for hogs. Our first wealth came from the soil in agriculture, mines and timber, Pouring money into certain channels that will never reach agriculture is but continuing our present economic troubles. At least Calculation the time yet required for re-adjustment Is es­ timated from tw* to five years. Can we survive that much o f A span?
