Extra Congress, Extra
Trouble.
20 Billions Extra.
Those Bermuda Cannon.
But Don't Worry.
i (Copyright, 1929, by Sta Co.)
I'TIicit is -to be an extra, ses
niou of Congress, so well in
formed AVusliintrton ' reports,
and tin: farmer will wait for
"relief" until the new Congress
fathers.
Mr. Hoover probably wishes
that milestone were passed.
The farm question is this:
How ciiii you make those en
fjatred in a thoroughly disor
iran haphazard industry as
prosperous as those in indus
tries, thoroughly organized on
it seientilie production und sell
ii.'f basis?
I'hanges in the tariff are pre
dated. "Hig fiiianeial and in
Oiustriul interests feels that tar
iff changes are needed."
If they feel that way, the
changes will be made, ami
probably should be made. Big
business has its faults, but it
Jtnows what the country needs,
realizing that the big man can
gel only his part of whut the
little man earns.
'
All of our prosperity comes
down to the fact that people
KAHMN'tf more SPEND more.
Mr. KcUer of the Metropoli
tan Life puts it in words:
"The people earn fifteen to
twenty billions more than it
costs thein to live. Those ex
tra billions are prosperity's
back log."
m
Washington expects the. peace
pact to go through the Senate,
today, following limitation of
, debate, due to Senator Uorab.
Something has been gained
by the debate, however, espe
cially the good fight made by
Senator Heed of Missouri.
Some senators, capable of
thought, will realize the truth
of Senator Heed's statement
that leaving the front door
open is not the best way to
thwart burglars'. , m
Senator lived fks the scno
tors, urged to create peace by
agreement, whether they think
a pact in 19U0 can do what tin:
prcachiug of Christ has not
done in 100U years.
Showing the senators a map,
with liritish possessions marked
in red all over it. Heed reminds
411cm that Britain EXCKl'TS
all her zones of influence from
any peace pact control.
We have sentimental gentle
men, many afflicted with An
glomania, burn of subtle Brit
ish flattery. Our so-called
statesmen arc somebody's
choice, made for personal rea
sons. No wonder we sign peace
pacts, and agree to destroy our
new battleships, while Britain,
piously destroys her blue prints
that she ccuildt not possibly af
ford to change into real ships.
However, the British are
vise. They know voiiat would
gapped IN T11K KND, even If
lliey did destroy the l'auama
Canal and wipe out by uir'it
tack New York, Washington,
Boston and other coast cities.
It giuid O.iot bc a paying
proposition.
fo there will be no war with
Britain, and a silly, sentimen
tal pink tea pact will probably
do no harm.
m '
And. most annoying to British
admirers. In and out of the Senate.
Senator Keed auks this question.
"AT VajjlOSE HKAP.T ARE THE
i CANNONS OF L tit Ml DA AIM
