IF YOU DON'T TRIBUN: T YOUR t find y before special messenger compiaints Yaad oS Republican Victory Assured With the election only three weexs off, discus- sion of net results as indication of the direction in which political sentiment is moving and prophetic pointer to the outcome to be expected in the November election is in order, ; ingle straws might be misleading as signs indicating al currents. But when many straws point in the same direction, and all of them with substantiality and straightness nts of the political situation are nted in ¢ pting them as prophetic omens. om the time when it first came into control, the administration has devoted its efforts to solution of the nation’s problems, foreign and domestic. Achievements under its 1 and vigorous foreign policy are notable. ment of vexed Pacific questions and agreements on re duction of naval armament at the Washington conference, which carry back in eredit to Presi- dent Harding's initiative in calling that meeting are impressive contributions to the progress of world pe and national welfare, stie problems the admin- met with equally con und the nation laboring dep economic conditions and y set ief. One of the first acts cutive was the calling of congress in session for enactment of legislation necessary to the restoration of abnormal conditions to normal with specjal, refetence to revision of taxation and ff. nee that time the administration has never slackened in exertion of proper pres- sure to this end. It has consistentl, nd persist- ently championed and urged legislation for reha- bilitation of agriculture and other purposes of national import and promotive of the public good. And the long list of constructive and remedial onal enactments bear testimony to the y of such pressure. Retrenchments in goy- ernmental expenditure to be credited to the ad- istration aggregate an enormous sum, which represents corresponding lightening of the bur- den on the taxp ers. Its inauguration of the bud- get system marked the beginning of an era of business-like handling of public affairs that is destined to work incalcuable benefit to the na- tion at large. The proof of a pudding is in the ating; and proof of the efficacy of the adminis- tration’s dealing with economic problems is in the improvement of conditions. The American people have been given to see the administration in the exercise of govern- mental stewardshiup. They have seen it in action in their behalf against menacing conditions and lave witnessed its effective dealing with difficult situations. They have seen it pursue the course that insured maximum service in their cause, regardless of antagonism that might mean loss of votes in certain quarters. And having seen all this, the people can be counted on to continue the support that it extended on confidence in the last election. The administration has proved it self wholly worthy of its continuance. Its claim} to support is for services rendered and to be} rendered. And such a claim has always carried with the American people. paling wit efforts suce spicuous under Aa: | Why Change | All over this broad land voters are asking them- selves and others the question—Why change? In all his public career, Calvin Coolidge has stood for the gene welfare and his never tried to promote his political interests by bidding for the support of any one « or section. His | political principles p the same in the east as in the west. He believes in a square deal for all and s for none Under Republican leadership this nation has served the cause of international peace and dis armament more than any other nation and has maintained national sovereignty unimpaired without shirking any international duty or re sponsibility. Why change? There is no reason to believe or even to hope | that with a change of administration the busi ness of the nation would be better conducted than | at present. There is every reason to believe it| would not be conducted so well. Why change? Coolidge has always been a great vote-getter because the people have had confidence in his integrity and his courage. We have a public ser. vant who has always made good Why change? Under the Republican adn tration cut expenses, reduced taxes, reduced the national debt, and established budget system which guarantees that there will be no deficits. Why change? Under the Republican administration, every class of peoplé in the United States is better off than it has been before for years. 1d better off than the corresponding class in any other nation on earth. we have | stead of less | @ more or less new of the United States, Calvin Coolidge will treat all people alike, regardless of race or religion, section or Class. Why change? Under the present administration the people of the country are prosperous, and are enjeying the rights of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Why charge? Every voter knows the business of the govern- ment is safe with Coolidge in the White House. Why change? Readjustment on Business Lines Much has been ignorantly said about “violent deflation of farming.” When the war collapsed so abruptly, every in- dustry had to be restored to a peace basis, and except for the bloodshed, the war itself was less of a calamity than the readjustment. All indus- tries had to deflate from their war valuations yid prospects. Certainly, farm valuations up to #500 an-acre for plain corn land, based on the continuation of the war and war profits, would ave to fall along with every other speculative valuation. It is said that farm valuations were deflated &18,000,000,000, If so they were speculative and not normal. But every other kind of valuation was also deflated. This happened all through the business world. Tt was not possible for the government to keep prices up to the war level. The United- States produces more than it consumes; this surplus must be sold abroad, if at all. Disorganized Eur- ope could not buy and -pay; the government ought nothing after the army disbanded. With- out a market, prices of farm products had to tumble in our country and all over the world. Could or should the government have bolstered the $18,000,000,000 speculative valuation of ‘the farms, industries or products? Could it tax the farmer for-his share of all the other business Che Casner Dailv Oribune Exceed All Records That the railways are breaking all records in moving the grain crops from the farms to the market is shown by statistics published in the Railway Age. This is the time of year woen the grain movement reaches its height. As an illustra tion of what the railways are doing, the Railway Age says: “In the seven weeks ended on September 27 the total number of carloads of grain and grain products moved exceeded 460,000 cars: ‘This Was 121,500 more than in the corre- sponding weeks of 1919, when the railways were under government operation; 157,000 more than in 61,000 more than in 1921; $4,000 than in 1922, and 87,000 more in 1923. hese facts,” the Railway Age constitute a striking com- upon the two different of regulation which have been advocated in the interest of the farmers. If the LaFollette-Brook- hart policy of reducing rates with- out any corresponding reductions of operating costs and taxes had been adopted the raflways would have been in (financial distress throughout the” last two years. Their ability to raise capital with which ot buy new locomotives and cars would have been destroyed. ‘Suppose after all this there had come, as there has, in the summer and fall of 1924 a world-widé in- crease in the demand for American ain and a large and general ad- nee in grain prices. If the LaFol- lette-Brookhart policy had been idopted the railways would be to- y in such ndition physteally they ¢ not handle the ould be today, as was in the falls of been a months to prices. of June 2. more on June 2, continue to make money votes at losses caused by the collapse of deflated values folowing the war, The whole thing is grotesque impossible. ut the farmer really gof the best of the re- organization, ‘in a tariff that protected eve thing he raised and brought him tariff-free every- thing he needed to run his farm.

Busines s settled the question of markets angprices; political bun- combe couldn't have done it in a thousand years. The Bulwatk of Labor The Socialist third-party has no just claim to the support of labor in its program to curb the so-called “veto” power of the supreme court The supreme tribunal has no power to yeto the acts of congress, nor to usurp the functions of fhe legislative branch of the government, as its critics claim. Its dutie re clearly defined d limited. It cannot even pass upon the consti onality of « law until suit has been brought in a lower court and it has been shown that en forcement of the law would injure the person complaining against it. The charge that the decisions of the supreme court in labor cases-haye been prejudiced is purely imaginary. The child labor laws were declared unconstitutional because, in passing them, the federal government encroached upon rights reserved to the states under the consti- tution. In the recent Kansas industrial court case, it was held that the court had no power to fix wages in cases where the public we?fare or might be imperiled. This decision confirms a principle for which the A. F. of L. has fought since it was organized. In that case the court ruled in effect that the power of fixing wage rates should be left to the workers as individ uals or through their unions, The LaFollette plan would give to a reaction ary congress the power to destroy the bill of rights, which is the very charter of Americ: libert With these constitutional guarantees gone ,trade unionism could be muzzled and the right of the American Federation of Labor to exist as an incorporated body destroyed. A sin- gle congress controlled by, an anti-union major- ity, by twice passing the law could place its edict beyond the power.of judicial redress. ° The gains that labor has made in this coun try have takefi generations to accomplish and they have been very great. During that time the constitution has stood like a rock in the path of those who would have oyerriden the rights of the workers. Its granite strength is needed to pro- tect labor's interests in the years of the future. Power of Suggestion For years, motorists haye been led to believe that an eastern lubricating oil for automobile | engines was better than lubricating oil produced in the west. Thousands of barrels of Pennsylvania lubri- cating oils are sold in the west, not because the public knows anything about the technical dif. ferences that may exist between a western and an eastern oil, but because automobile drivers have been told and have read for years that the eastern oil furnishes better lubrication. As eastern oil costs more due to fact that it has to be hauled across the continent to its ‘west: ern consunmers, buyers think they are getting a better product. _ Western oil companies are among in the world, Their crude oil is the same as other crude oil and their refining equipment is second to none. Hence, they should produce lubricating oils of the highest quality, but quality-alone in product will not quickly off. set years of advertising of an old product with which consumers have become familiar, Westerners, however, should be interested in de- the largest | veloping industries in this territory and should investigate thoroughly western products, not only oil but other commodities which can be produced here rather than shipping them possibly thou sands of miles. 3 , Let "Em Alone President Coolidge says that the great urge and wish of the American people is to be let alone, He runs his job on the level and well. He orings to it the common sense which Americans admire more than any other of the rare virtues He is a doer rather than talker, , He is not Calvin Coolidge, straight, efficient upright, cour- ageous, honest to us as well as with us, and his one desire is to give us a good run for our money.

They are rely- Ing on this same.common sense to thwart the endeavors of those who would have the government buy and operate the railroads, and to keep in their proper places the quack joctrinaires who overstress the vir- nt as they are. It goes direct to the heart of American institu- tions. It has to do with basic ideals and governmental principles, devo- tion to which has made the nation the great political exemplar for all the world. . Destroy the governmental balance which the forefathers’ devised, take away the checks they set up, to safeguard the “inalienable rights” of the people and to make Considered judgment prevail over hasty im- pulses, and there is immediate ex- is. of our liberties to forces that make for destruction.
