The federal tax, in the case of some of the large producers amounts to all the way from 30 to 70 per cent of the total net income, and under the new revenue law it will amount to & maximum of Why, then, should a foreign producer 50 per cent. be permitted to ship his ket and pay only the the Democratic tari But we are not basing our argument solely on the proposition that the ‘foreign producer, who sells here, should pay a tax. That is the Democratic doctrine, though the Democrats enacted a law that produced a lower revenue and a lower rate of revenue than the Republican law which they repealed. We are basing our argument chiefly on the proposition that an Amer- ican is entitled to first chance in his home market without reducing his standard of living in order to be able to compete with the foreginer. i Any number of specific instances can be cited to show that under free trade or a very low tariff rate the foreign producer can ship his goods to the United States and sell them at such a low price that the/ American producer is put out of busi.ess. It is not necessary to cite specific instances for the import and} export statistics of the government show the facts.| Following the enactment of the Wilson-Underwood | tariff law in 1913 our imports increased from month| to month and our exports decreased. That Democratic| law went into effect in October, 1913, when we had a} monthly trade balance in our favor. That balance decreased from month to month until April, 1914, when the balance was on the wrong side of the ledger and we were buying more goods than we were, selling. No one needs to take the assertion of a Republican for this fact; he can get it from the records of the Demo- cratic administration. The unfavorable trade _bal- ance continued against us until the outbreak of the ‘war which cut off imports and created a new demand| for our goods. For ten months prior to the outbreak of the war, the Democratic tariff law was in full op- eration and every month of that period was a demon- stration of the unsoundness of the non-protective) policy. Some Democrats tried to defend their 1aw by call- ing it a “competitive tariff,” implying that it put the} American and foreign producers on a competitive ba- si If it had put the two on a really competitive ba- sis, there would not have been so much reason to com- plain, but the results showed that it was not com- petitive but destructive. Foreign goods were admit-| ted at such a low duty, or at no duty at all, that the} American producer could not meet the competition] and closed his shop. With the closing of the fac-| tories, men were out of work, their wages were di: continued, their buying power was destroyed and all lines of business suffered. What the American people want now is not the en- netment of a prohibitive tariff, but return to the prin- ciple of a protective tariff which will put the Amer- ican producer on an equality with his foreign rival in our home markets. When that equality is established the American producer will take care of himself. © ADDRESSING THE PROLETARIAT. Resurrect from the storehouse of your memory the events of the moving period of 1918, and dust off and re-read the appeal of Nicholas Lenin of Russia, to the American workmen. The appeal, which was ad- dressed to “workmen,” included all Americans for that is what we are. Whether on the farm, in the shop, in executive offices, in professional positions, or behind bank counters. We are workmen, all; and what is more we take pride in it. The appeal it will be remembered was intended to arouse class preju- dice, not knowing that we have no class distinctions| under our constitution and laws. | Lenin rejoiced at the opportunity to send a com- munication to America, “for the revolutionary pro- letariat—in so far as it is the enemy of American imperialism—is destined to perform an important task at this time.” While acknowledging that under the leadership of developing génius America has taken the first place among free and cifilized nations, he as- serted that “at the same time America, like a few other nations, has become characteristic for the depth of the abyss that divides a handful of brutal million-} all average tax imposed by | millions of labe at Casper, Natr©D®) ard always = ; than in Rus | ii | upon millions of dollars from the fede: | of ev ; | oods into the American mar-| ( | lions. into the pockets of the citizens. ating in a mire of luxury, an ires, who are nt in the face.” ten three years ago by a mian of the) That stuff who pretended to have established the rule proistariat i is there more suffering, the people as a whole, and on the average, more ¢om- the ascendenc cendency e proletariat of America.

The political party which was in power from| 3 to 1920 had shown close sympathy with the So- viet movement in Russia; 16,000,000 of the Amer-| n people voted to turn that party out of power, while 9,000,000 voted to keep it in. all of the “handful of millionaires” voted for the Re-| publican cand assuming that there were a mil- lion of the ires, which, of course, is prepos- her still a vote of 15,000,000 of the or of throwing out the political or- h hed manifested sympathy for, Lenin ental ideas. | an “proletariat” hear the appeals that | for the appropriation of ‘millions | treasury for) the relief of the ill-c and starving millions of Rus-} a, they are not likely to regret the stand they took at the election in 1920, for the recognition and pro- and property.

In hia speech of acceptance President Harding in- dicated his intention of doing everything in the pow- er of the administration, should he be elected, to bring Liberty bonds back to par. In making that promise he gave emphasis to an implication in the Republican national platform that if Republican principles were t in control of the government, the decline in the Liberty bond market, due to the extravagance of Wil- sonism, would be speedily checked and the price of bonds started on an upward course. Those who seek to list the essful. Not onl Mr. Harding most immediately after the results of the November elections became known. From a low price of about | e bonds risen in price steadily since $82 per Windred, the bonds have risen in value until/except that they are now quoted around $97. That means that in the year since President Harding was elected to of- fice there has been put into the pockets of Liberty bond owners more than $2,500,900,000 that was not there earlier in 1920. | No one particular act of the president or of the Republican congress raised the price of the bonds in that way, The ddministration w.= far too wise to at- tempt the familiar Democratic expedient of seeking to. fix bond prices, or any other prices, by legislation. The increase in Bond quotations has been brought about by the cumulative effect of Republicanism. Every beneficial law passed by the congress, and every act of the president and his ¢xecutive heads in the in- terests of the public welfare, has increased public con- fidence in the government Washington. Business has responded, capital is increasingly active in the} promotion of industry, and the wage earners have a growing responsibility that is bringing about a great- er production per man per day. As everything else in the country has been hurrying on the road to nor-} maley, so the Liberty bonds have been steadily rising toward par, which is their normal condition. In specifying the relief that the Republican admin- istration is giving the people, we are too prone to cen- ter attention on laws that reduce the burden of taxa- tion. Of cou aid from that direction is most wel- come, and i been g y granted in the new] internal revenue law Ww: it the total tax some} $800,000,000 in the very first year. But the high prices of Liberty bonds are the result of a process that has been quietly going on for over a year, about which we heard little as each day brought added mil- The sum total of gain from that source has been more than three times the saving that will be experienced in the first! year of the operation of the new tax law.
