MAY 27, 1922 LEAGUE MENAGE California Bankers in Session at Del Monte Advised on Non Partisan Fallacies'' SALEM EDITORffi FACTS Crop of Economic Disaster to Follow Foothold There TELLS OF BANK WRECKING DECLARES LEAfit'TB FORMS TRI PARTITE ALU AX LE WITH LA BOR AXD FARM IlLOO ELE MENTS IX CONGRESS I'KL MONTE, Cab, May 26. If tho Nonpartisan League, succeeds in Cali fornia, "It will raise a bigger crop of economic disaster than was possible in a one crop stato like North Dakota, one of Us chief strongholds." Colonel K. Hofer. Salem. Ore., editor of "Tho Manufacturer, told the California Rankers association ut- its twenty eighth annua) convention hero today. ".Movements that Meek to consoli date agrarian and industrial unrest into political action naturally to get public attention, must shoot their guns at large targets that are easily focused In public attention and hence banking and big business are rightly or wronely fingk-d out for attack," he continued. Hanging Practice Pernicious Tho league eaten to the worst banking practices, many of 'which have been outgrown and" condemned by experience, such as stato guaranty of deposits that has wrecked many : communities as only recent exper iences in Washington showed where $8,000,000 state guaranteed deposits may pay out twenty cents on tlio dol lar. "Tho Nonpartisan League with Its organized blocks of votens stuffed with class prejudice, bids for the worst type of politicians who will bid for any group of voters on any terms to achieve success, it would again reopen the doors to irredeemable paper circulating medium, even get ting backing from pseudo-economists like Thomaw Kdibon and Henry tord, Is Assault on (iovcrnnicnt 'Next to ,Uh teaching dangerous financial theories, non partisanship is an assault upon a republican form of government guaranteed to every state by tho constitution of tho United States. It forms the old tri-partite allianco with organized Inbor nnd the elements entering into the farm bloc in Congress. The kicking mules of Missouri hitched up with the wild asses of scripture would be Inpdog pets compared to the conflicting in terests of tho new trl-partito fusion. Tho farmers do not want to pay union wage scales or work union hours. Tho fnrm burenu, standing for co operative prieiples, will not stand for state socialistic enterprises."

Out of Politics and Forget Soldier Bonus , STEEL SESSION HELD Speaker Admonishes Magnates to Pity Poor Pessimist PLUCK HELD PRIME NEED HEAVY FINANCIAL BURDENS OF PRESENT 3ICST BE BORNE GRACEFULLY AND . WITH PATIENCE, SAYS GARY NEW YORK. Mav 28. Klhert tt Gary in his address as president of the American Iron and Steel Institute, in session nt Hotel Commodore today advocated that congress tnko the tar iff out of politics, that it play no fav orites in its tendency to regulate J things; that it substitute a sales tax for the Income tax, and that, it forget the soldier bonus until the nation Is less severely burdened financially. As for the business future of Amer ica. Mr. Gary declared himself as "still nn optimist" In the iron, and steel Industry, he said, "the profits are not satisfactory, hut few, If any. ought to be dnintr business at a loss." "Pity the blind, deaf and foolish pessimist of the United States." he ad jured members of the institution. "We ore carrying hitherto unheard of finnnelal burdens. To hear them gracefully nnd contentedly thero must be not only forbearance, encourage ment and assistance from every d nartmont of . sovemment un to the Hmit of property and ' Justice. - but there must also be entertained con stantly by every individual, a spirit of patience, pluck, enersv. generos ity, loyalty nnd charity, fully no to his or her inteiiierpnee.'' v Views on Tariff Summarizing his remarks on the tariff question. Judge Gnry said: as Detweep .parties, jth main dif ference, as I see it, is that the Repub-' lican party has stood for a 'protective tariff. and tho Democratic party for tariff for revenue.' Tho settlement ' for this controversy should include both." In a plea for . Impartial. . govern-" mental control where it is. undertaken ... he insisted that "all lines and depart- ments of economic activity of similar , importance should be subjected to the f same treatment." There has been a disposition in recent years, he de clared, to ."jiass laws which measur abiy exempt labor organizations and recent farmer associations from gov ernmental investigation, supervision and control against wrong." To permit such organizations to do, ns the result of combination, "things that aro claimed to be beneficial to them which are denied to others Is to create classes, to favor some and to injure the whole body politic," the steel magnate declared. Takes I't-aT at Investigation ': This is not equal opportunity and equal obligation," he charged. In this connection. Juda-e Gary took a fling at "investigation and-publication," when carried to excess. 'Constant, partisan and reckless in- . ' dulgence in this pastime by- repre- - , sentatives of government, or what is 1 much worse, by self -appointed, un- ' qualified or dishonest individuals or associations,' posing public bene- ractors, may do ana often is mislead ing and antagonistic to 'the general welfare," he said. ' ' "The bonus question, he declared. "Is not yet ripo for determination. Even though there may be two sides to the question as to whether or not a soldier who has escaped disability, ' physical and mental, should be- paid or ask payment of a bonus, it would not be useful for us to consider or form opinions on that question at ? present. -Sums Up Bonns Question "There, has been considerable pro- paganda In behalf of the proposal." : ' i he continued. "Personalities and vit uperative comment have been indulg ed in. Prejudices have been Created. High government officials, senators and representatives, have been im- portuned and, to a certain extent,: j abused for opposition to or lack of in- : ' terest in the 'soldiers' cause.' Na tional ingratitude for loyalty, and sac- : riflces has been charged. Legisla- ' tion has been proposed, amended, die ' cussed nnd halted. Because of this situation, a feeling of unrest and re sentment has arisen and the effect upon the national progress of efforts to return to the normal conditions of peace and Industry has been depress ing. . ' . r i "Former soldiers, like 1 all ' others, noed opportunity to work, and to con tinuously furnish this chance, cour age and Capital should be given to in- dustry. The load of taxation ought to be lightened, not Increased. Enter- nrise has staggered under this bur den. It would not be difficult to break itm back. ' .says They Are solemn warning These are not Idle words. They are a solemn warning, not only to soldrers but to everyone who is at preseuit seeking what -Is neither rea sonabJe nor patriotic," Of tiixntlon. he snld: - "Tho fairest method Is found in the sales tax. so called. It is the most - easily, cheaply and certainly collect ed. It ban been found In other coun tries to be practicable, satisfactory - . and successful." Tho present Income tax is too ex- , npnaivelv collected. Judge Gary as- . sorted, and many who are able to pay escape. For the good of all tno peo ple a solos tnx Is desirable."
