Al- Kansas editor, in a talk to cking house employes on the Side at noon, “is to create a oi industrial self defense for | on to meet all needs. u cannot protect yourselves by I of iree trade to the world.” He spoke from an automobile at west end of the ( street viaduct. Later he spoke in the Exchange build- ing at the stocks yards. | te urged the packing house em- | ployes to stand for a policy of ade- (uate protection to safegua Ameri- or and American industries st the invasion of foreign prod- European Factories Busy. i “T'he talk of the factories in urope being destroyed by the war is il a mistake,” he said. “Not a fac- yry in Europe has been dismantled. Fhey haven't heard the sound of a cannon in the great industrial centers of England, Not a cannon shot has approched anywhere near the great tactories of Germany. | “On the contrary, there are more | factories in operation in Europe to-| day than ever before. They have aken little machine shops and cow- erted them into great efficient fac- tories, turning out great quantities of munitions of war. The women of Iingland and Germany have learned to man the factories while their hus- bands are off at the war, “According to a German economist | writing in a current magazine, the (German factories have gone right on | producing goods, and have today $1,- 500,000,000 worth of products stored in great warehouses awaiting the hour when the war shall be ovep, when Germany can again reach the sea and begin to trade with the world. “America will then confront a crisis never seen before in its lifetime. You men would be doing a foolish thing to attempt to meet this with a condition of free trade. We need a protective tariff, which we have hitherto always had to protect Ameri- can labor, “This great institution,” he con- tinued, pointing to the packing houses, “has $7,000,000 worth of packed beef stored up to feed the soldiers of Eu- rope. In a little while, God willing, that war will be over, and the demand for our meat will not be so great abroad. Then they will begin to pack their own meat abroad. Then they will begin to look for an opportunity to sell meat here in competition with American producers. They will say they can pack meat and sell it cheaper, than the Americans, because they can hire their labor at one-fourth the wages paid hére. Then these factories wil? reduce their activity, and you wen will suffer the consequences.” Men Out of Employment. Attacking the ‘democratic claim of prosperity under the democratic ad- ministration, the speaker declared there are 173,000 men out of employ- ment in Chicago, 50,000 in San Kran- cisco and 250,000 in New York City, A committee of republicans in twg automobiles met Mr. Allen at the train.
