On behalf of the measure Mr. Kelly has veic- the and ; : ; ’ t ted the seutiments of newspaper publishers gener- jally. + “The present postage rates on newspapers and publications were fixed in the war revenue law ‘passed in 1917 2nd are 325 per cent higher than the pre-war rates. Every one of the items carried in ‘that war measure, with the exception of the tax jon second class mail matter, has been modified or t led. } “The old rate was one cent a pound on second class matter. into zones anl fixed the postage rate on the adver- ftising portion of 4 newspaper or other periodical gas high as ten cents a pound to the eighth zone. ?These high rates tend to break up the country into isections and to encourage provincialism and dis- “courage nationalism. “Absurd inconsistencies fhavq followed in ‘the strain of this arbitrary and unscientific classifica- ‘tion. For instance, an individual may send a news- “paper in separate wrapper as third class mail more cheaply than the publisher can mail it him- self in a large shijrnent. A ten-pound package of feathers occupying a lar®e space can be sent fourth class at about half the cost of sending a ten-pound package of newspapers which requires very little space. “This is the more unjust because the publishers perform a large part of the handling and assort- ing before their mail reaches the postoffice. It Ts routed carefully and loaded into storage mail cars without expense to the postoffice department Only when it arrives at its final destination is it handted by postal employes. Thus, it costs less to handle this matter than either third or fourth class mail, but under the present law, the second class matter carries the heaviest burden. “The newspapers and other periodicals are the yery fountain source of first Glass and fourth class mail. They also perferm an invaluable service in freely carrying messages of the postoffice and other departments of the government direct to the peo- ple. They are really selling agents for the gov. ernment but they get no commission on their sales. It is a common sense policy to give them advan- tageons rates in the mails. “These war time postage rates have driven mil- lions of pounds of second class matter from the mail into private channels of distribution. There js something radically wrong when private com- panies can make a handsome profit at rates less than those charged in postage. The postal serv- jce has the organization and, the facilities and should be able to perform this service of distribu- tion cheaper than any other enterprise. “The fact that these high rates are charged on the advertising pages does not lessen the injustice. Advertising is not merchandise but information. ‘The newspapers are information highways just as essential to the business prosperty of this country us the highways and waterways. Not a sale can be made or a pound of goods shipped without the interchange of information. The advertisements ure chronicles of every advance in industrial achievement. Without them publication of the great national newspapers and magazines would be im- possible. “In 1918 the publishers paid postage amounting to $11,712,000. This year they will pay more than $33,000,000 for less service. I believe there is no good reason why the publishers of newspapers and §nagazines should be singled out to pay this extra war tax. i ‘our separate increases were made under the hvar revenne law. I propose to repeal the last two increases which would give the government 175 per cent more than the pre-war rates and would not relieve the publishing industry of one cent of the other federal taxes paid in common with all other industries. In all fairness this action should he taken at once.” After Sixteen Months hy 1EN THE Republican administration tock ‘YY charge of the government there was a bonded indebtedness of $23,000,000,000 with an annual in- terest charge of over $1,000,000,000. This was an in- crease of 2,300 per cent in the public indebtedness compared with 1913, when the Democratic admin- istration took charge of the government. In 1913 the total public indebtedness was less than the in- terest charges at the close of the Democratic ad- ministration. Within the last 16 months the public indebtedness has been reduced by $700,000,000, and a very appreciable per cent of the indebtness has been refunded at a lower rate of interest. When the Republican administration came into power government bonds were selling at 85 cents on the doHar. Today every issue of Liberty and Victory bonds is selling at par or better. This rep- resents an increase of $3,000,000,000 in the value of government securities in the 16 months since the Republicans took charge. When the Republican party took charge 16 months ago the nation had $11,000,000,000 outstand-; ing in foreign loans, for which it had no written or legal agreement as to how and when the loans The new system divided the country}; = and interest were to be paid. A refunding commis sion has been created ior the purpose of getting these loans on a commercial basis and arranging a method whereby the principal is to be taken cure! of and interest paid. When the Republican administration came into power the discount rate of federal reserve banks was 75 per cent for gilt edge commercial loans. This has been steadily reduced until it is now 45 per cent. i The last year of the Democratic administration} the actual cost of running the government was 9%, 538,040,689. The actual cost of running the govern-/| ment for the current fiscal year ending June 30th | will not exceed $3,922,372,030. This is an annual! saving of $1,600,000,000 which this Republican ad-| ministration has made in the routine expenditures | of the government. This saving has been due largely to the establish-| ment of a budget system, created by an act of con-} gress early in its special session and rigidly ap- plied by the executive officers of the administra- | $3 | tion. The Republican congress elected in 1918 passed | budget law but it was vetoed by President Wilson. | The Republican congress under this administra-} tion enacted a revenue law repealing all transpor tation taxes upon freight, express and parcel post matter, all nuisance tax2s, all excess profits taxes, | reduced the surtaxes und reduced the income taxes | (by increasing exemptions) on all who have an in-| come of $5,000 or less, which affects 90 per cent of | tbe people of the United States. All told, the new! revenue Dill decreases the burden of taxes $813,-) 000,000 the current calendar year and provides for a reduction equally as great for the calendar year of 1923. The Republican administration found agriculture on the brink of bankruptcy due to unexpected, ua- warranted and uneconomic deflation of agricul-| tural credits during the last year of the Democratic| administration. Agriculture is the basic industry} of the nation. It represents 40 per cent of the buy-| ing power of the country. It is the largest consumer of steel and iron products with the exception of the railroads. It consumes 60 per cent of the lumber) products. It is the largest buyer of motor vehicles.| It is the largest buyer of leather and textile goods. | The revival of all industry depended first upon the} revival of agriculture. An act of congress amending and extending the powers of the war finance cor- potation gave to agriculture a billion doliar fund! to druw upon for credts. Other legislation was enacted to relieve the revive agriculture. Various| administrative policies were put into effect to ac- celerate its revival. Today thut industry is on its feet. It is getting profitable prices for its products, is coming into the market as a, buyer and after the harvesting and sale cf this year’s crops will again resume its proper piace in America’s commercial and industrial life. When this administration came into power there) “were approximately 5,000,000 wage earners in idle- ness. Today there is a job for every man who |wishes to work. There is a scarcity of farm labor.| There is a scarity of skilled and unskilled labor in| many of the leading industries, which are advertis- ing for help. Unemployment has ceased to be a factor outside of the industries in which there} are strikes. This has been brought about by the cumulative policies of the administration, which re- sulted in a revival of industry and commerce. When this administration came into power gov- ernment interference in private business was the rule. Paternalism was encouraged. Individual in- itiative was throttled. This administration has put a stop to government interference with business in a destructive way. It has encouraged individual} initiative and enterprise. It has outlawed pater- nalistic and socialtistic practices. It has estab- lished the practice of friendly counsel and advice with leaders in commercial and industrial affairs to take the place of the intimidation and hostile ultimatums which were the vogue under the pre- vious administration. _ It has given encouragement and optimism to hon- st capital and thrift by refusing to recognize or deal with the present pewers of Russia, thereby placing its stamp of repudiation upon those pol- \icies which operate for the destruction and confi cation of private property the nationalization of! industries, the creation of t money and all other socialistic and communistic practices which pre- vail in soviet Russia. The administration has refused to become en- tangled with the petty, selfish, war-breeding jeal- .it has shown its earnst and sincere desire to pro. mote the cause of peace and amity among all na ,tions by the calling of the Washington conference/| which resulted in the agreement to limit naval} rmaments and to substitute international arbitra- tion for war.

The editor of the 4ffi-| cial magazine was instrncted to use the columns of | the paper to attack President Harding and his ad. ministration. In commenting on the action the National Re-| publican says: “A resolution predicated upon falsehood thus cul minated in an attempted prostitution of a labor organization to the partisan political ends sought by certain leaders of the organization, more anx- ious to play polities than to serve the cause of labor. | “The statement that President Harding has ‘shown himself to be a ‘consistent and unrelenting enemy of organized labor’ and of ‘the working \classes in general’ is so preposterously untrue that it falls of its own weight. As a newspaper pub. lisher President Harding has been for years an employer of organized labor. He is an honorary fmember of the Typographical union. His fairness to and consideration of his employes has’ been clearly shown by the testimony of the men who hare worked with and for him. Indeed, President Harding is himself as much a workingman as any) of those who framed up and put over these resolu- tions. “The rank and file of the railway brotherhood membership is waking up to the fact that the Democrats and Socialists who have forced their way to the leadership of these organizations, have abandoned the original and legitimate aims of or- ganized labor and are seeking to convert these unions into political blocs to be delivered at will by these leaders on election day. ° I “The leaders of the railway brotherhoods, all} Democrats or Socialists, are using the funds col- lected by these organizations as dues for purposes ki perity of the nation and insure steady employment the scriptural saying about the faith|nace until coal is cheaper.
