The democrats gave |the country the federal reserve sys- tem; before this was created, the country suffered from periodic since then, we have had s i8 a constructive piece of ion that the republicans can- natch. “And what is the panacea that the republicans regularly offer for de- pression? What is Mr. Hoover offer- ing to the textile industries of Massachusetts tonight? Ever a higher and still higher tariff. What ) good will that do the cotton mills? I have a brother who is director of n T companies, and they know, what Mr. Hoover apparently does not recog- nize, that their competition comes v not from abroad but from two sour ilk, and the southern mills. What good will a high tariff do the pro- ducers of dress ginghams chint I wear silk dresses all summer? Whint good will a high tarlff do the Massachusetts mills when the cheap kinds can be produced at a lower cost in South Carolina? The Massa- chusetts companies are realizing this, and are moving their own mills to the south. They know that their {economic ills cannot be cured by higher tariff. “Coolidge Economy” “Another republican catchword is ‘Coolidge economy.’ As a citizen, I am eager for economy. And so T , would like to call your attention and of the Massachusetts cotton-mill | and | s and cotton voiles, if you and | that of Mr. Coolidge to this: ! “In its 1920 platform, the republi- can party advocated reorganisation of the government departments, so as to avold duplication and to ef- fect economy in administrative ex- pense. In the 1924 platform, the re- publican party repeated the same | plank in the very same words. What | has happened in these eight years of |§ promises? A joint committee of | congress investigated the matter, and | reported in 1924 that the mrnnh] zation would effect great savings, estimated by the senior member of the comymittee to total three hun- dred million dollars annually. As my husband said the other day, with a sigh, ‘three hundred dollars mea! 50 much to me that three hundred million means nothing.' Evidently it means nothing to Mr. Coolidge, and evidently eight years of promises mean nothing to the republican party. | “In contrast to this, please re- call that Governor Smith put through his promise of reorganiza- ' tion of the New York state govern- ment, and he did it with the ald of the people and despite the hostility | of the republican legislature, | Shots at Gov.

But the republicans are step- | ping delicately, balancing water on both shoulders—or rather, water on one and liquor wsing pretty, little catch-phrases. “The one they use most is ‘Repub- | lican Prosperity.’ There is a cartoon entitled ‘The Only Tune That H; Could Play,’ showing Hoover as piper playing ‘The Full Dinner Pail March,’ and a very disgruntled voter wishing for a change of tune. When they say ‘Republican Prosperity,’ the republicans hope you will think three things—first, that we have prosperity; second, that the repub- licans are responsible for it; third, that the democrats are work- ing heart and soul to bring about the day when we shall have no pros- | perity, on the other—and | “Well, to what degree are we pros. | perous today ? Governor Smith in his acceptance speech spoke of the four million unemployed, dependent on them; does that look like unalloyed prosperity? with families | The re- | publican platform speaks of ‘general | depression’ in agriculture; ask the farmers of the west and of Connecti- cut if ‘general depression’ is their idea of prosperity. Mr. Hoover laud- ed republican prosperity other day in a speech in Elizabeth- ton, Tennessee. In the rayon plants of that town there are three thou- san women and girls working ten hours or more a day some of them at the scarcely magnificent salary of ‘eight dollars a week. Do they jump for joy to hear of their prosperity? And now the republican national committee has announced to the textlle mills and shoe factories of Massachusetts that Mr. Hoover realizes that they have been suffer- ing from depression, and the com- mittee is sending him to Boston to talk to them tonight and offer them 8 higher tarift so that they may have their share of prosperity. It begins to look as though depression were about as wide-spread as pros- perity.
