'will be: ,

and not capable of . effective re

I- I To wake a concerted drive In the
agricultural states of the Middle West,
In the effort to reestablish the Western
and Southern political amalfaratloa
which resulted In Democratic victory u

ness. rather than a social baale la note
worthy. And adoption of this policy,
reached after numerous conferences be
tween Chairman Cordell Hull and Demo
cratic laadera baa bean attended by
general houne Cleaning of old customs
within the national committee Itself.
In this latter connection It will be re
' called that during the last campaign
the Democratic party Buffered one of
the moat complete and dismal collapses
recorded In political hlatory. The crash
of Its machinery and initiative was still
In a chaotlo heap for months After the
lection.
This chaoa today has, given way to
the point that, shortly after March J,
the national committee will present a
well organised front to the Republicans.
. will submit a budget system expected
' to fill the treasury, and will be pre
' pared for the most militant campaign
ever staged by the organisation In
congressional election.
Whereas. In 1913 the Democrats rode
Into power on a split Republican party
and on a peace or war laaue In 111 and
sought support of Its international pol
icy in 1120, this ytar the Democrats are
going to bat on business-like govern
ment. Tbua they have decided to take
tho offensive on an laaue In which la
past campaign they have bean forced to
be on the defensive. v
From the outset of this campaign, be
ginning next month, the Democratic at
tack will have as its foundation: -
1 The charge that tho Republican
tariff has bean followed by lower prices
for all agricultural products, whereas
tho farmer still pays as much or more
(or protected manufactured products.
The effort will bo to show that tho no-
publican emergency tariff has not pro
tected tho fanners.
2 The charra thai the revenue; bill is
inequitable la that It! favors tbe; "preda
tory rate rests. ,-
1 The charge that the revenue bill
Is inadequate In that It will not raise
la taxes what It is supposed to raise
and will necessitate further Issues of
government loans to take care of the
deficits. This tine of attack Is dealgned
to show that the bulwarks of Republi
can policy tarnr ana taxes nave
crumbled. i -
4 To back np these Charges the na
tional organisation hopes to offer
constructive program designed to wean
away voters who are suffering eco
nomic setbacka today.
In this Utter field Democratic lead
ers declare they will make their great
est efforts in the agricultural' centers.
And In connection with their plans the
part la watching the conference of pro
gressives farmers, workers and others

cooperation later. ,
