TILSON ADDRESSES STATE CHAMBER Advocates Policy of Protection in Tralfic Laws Hartford, Dec. 27 (P)—A policy of protection applying with equal force to every industry of the country is favored by Representative Tilson of Connecticut, the majority floor lead- er of the house, as a foundation stone for the tariff structure changes to be decided upon by congress. “We in New England,” said Til- son in an address before members of the Connecticut Chamber of Com- merce today, “should favor proper protection for farming, mining and other industries. A policy of protec- tion must be based upon principles broad enough to cover the nation or it canot stand. Tilson expres the belief that there was little chance of farm legis- lation being enacte this session and predicted Herbert Hoover would redeem his campaign pledge by calling an extra session to consider this question. Can Help Since farm relicf is conceded to | include tariff revision, the republi- can leader declared that New Eng- land manufacturers could help ma- terfally in preparation of a new tarlft law by furnishing congress with material facts such as will in- spire the confidence of those in charge of the hearings. “In presenting the needs of sev- eral industries,” he advised, “great care should be exercised that the | case be neither overstated or under- siated. It understated, and rates are based upon such understate- ment, then the protection given will not be sufficient and the result will be unsatisfactory, as was the case in a few instances in the revi- sion of 1921-22. On the other hand, it the case be overstated the close and critical scrutiny which is sure 1> be glven every item by both friends and foes of the tariff, will surely reveal the exaggeration of the need for protection, and the error will recoil upon the heads of those giving the inaccurate information to the injury of the industry that has been thus misrepresented.” COOLIDGE SHOOTS PHEASANTS ON ISLAND (Continued from First Page) carry her own gun and try her luck | at the game.

The Philip Schuyler Chapter of the Daughters of the American Rev- clution have plans to erect a fitting memorial to replace the inconspicu- ous one which reads: Samuel Wilson Died July 31, 1854, Aged 88 years. Betsey Mann, his wife. Though to the majority, Unele Sam is a fictitious person, lean and lanky, with striped pants, starry coat with flying tails and a high hat, there once was a real, live person who was known personally to thou- sands of his fellow men as Uncle am. In 1768 in the little village of Ma- there was born to a Mr. Mrs. Wilson a son who was promptly christened Sam. Made Bricks at Troy When he was 21 years old, his | father having lost all his property hrough poor investments during the tevolution and the reconstruction period while our nation was aborn- ing, Sam and his brother, Ebenezer, walked to Troy, Y., then a flour- ishing little village on the Hudson at the head of the tidewater. Having learned the art of making trick in their home town, the two boys started a kiln in Troy. Many home still standing were erected with the product of their hands. In 1812, when the United States and England entered into war once more, Sam established a slaughter house in Troy and, through associa- tion with an Elbert Anderson, gov- crnment contractor, entered into a bargain to furnish meat and other supplies for the soldiers quartered a few miles below at Clinton Heights, near the famous old Fort Cralo. This place is noted as the hirthplace of “Yankee Doodle” as a popular song. Beet and pork were packed fin barrels and shipped to the camp by boat or ox-train. Each cask was marked on one side with the initials of the contractor, E. A., and, on the other with those of the consignee, U. 8. for Unitad States government.
