Slow recovery in the economic depres- sion was laid at the door of the Demo- cratic party last night by Speaker Longworth in a radio speech. Speaking over the National Broac- casting System, the Ohioan said Demo- crats in the Senate succeeded in pro- longing consideration of the Smoot- Hawley tariff bill for political purposes, “Their one desire was to prevent the passage of the tariff bill until the last possible moment before election day; to prolong as long as possible business un- certainty for their political advantage,” he said. “That they succeeded is evi- denced by the fact that they were éi- rectly responsible for a continued tariff session of nearly a year and a half, a period unexnmpled in tariff his-| tory, > ““There can be no excuse for this pro- BURLINGTON HOTEL || Banquets, $1.25 Up Sridge Paries—Dances 1120 Vermont Ave. Decatur 0500 Toll House Tavern Colesville Pike Silver Spring, Md.

LONDON, October 7 (#).—~A broad- side against tariff protection in all countries was delivered here yesterday by Henry Ford. “Tarifls as trade protection are rarely successful,” he said. He asserted, British buyers of Ford automobiles during 1929, paid about $8,750,000 more than American buyers for the same number of cars. He blamed the horsepower tax upon Brit- ish automobilists for forcing smaller motors_into the Ford models sold in Great Britain. “While touring in Europe,” he re- marked, “I was astonished at the pre- ponderance of American autos and was told that British-bullt cars were unac- (‘ep'fablc to drivers of any country save Britain.” A single lightning flash represents enough wasted electricity to light your home for 20 years and more.
