WILL THE TARIFF HAKE OR BREAK
PRESIDENT HOOVER?
LOOK OVKRi tho' political history of this country mid yon
will find that mljiiNtiiiK the tariff, has almost resulted in
political trouble for the adjuster. ' ' V
' Before this special session, is over it will lie apparent thai,
the big problem is not farm relief, but jariff adjustment. '
And, also before it is over, a very.furioiis situation will be
apparent. Unless all siRiis fail, the country will find Presi
dent Hoover fighting for a lower tariff than several of liis
Democratic opponents, who traditionally are opposed to any
protective tariff at all.
With this Democratic ' minority against the President will
'be the high tariff Republican bloe, under the leadership. of the
conservative Senator Reed of Pennsylvania. ..... .
' A pretty mix up I Ami. 'unquestionably the most 'fcerious
complication from a political standpoint President Hoover has
had to face.
HOW ho will emerge from the scramble only the future can
disclose. If ho averts serious political trouble, it will sim
ply demonstrate that, in spite of his inexperience in practical
politics,- President Ilioover has mastered the fundamentals of
this problem, as ho did the fundamentals of those less human
but no more complicated problems which confronted him as an
engineer. -
..,-
WE wish him luck,. If ever a mail'descrved sympathy and
aid, President Hoover does in his present situation. If
he were less sincere, less conscientious, less concerned with what
he believes to be best for .the people, of this country as a whole,
his task would be much easier. ,' "'.
But he isn't built that way. In this tariff matter, for ex
ample, "he realizes more dearly than any other man in Wash
ington what the world is like today, and how it has changed
in twenty years, and the. many serious factors involved..
Frank Simouds. famous international expert, explains this
situation very clearly in the current -'.'lioview of Reviews" as
follows : ' , ''".;'.'.-'. ','
The Congress which ls'how considering tariff revision stands -between
the devil and the deop blue sea. Congress must choose .
between making friends at home or abroad.
For the new tariff Is going to write a new chapter in foreign
relations.
From Canada and South America alike there have come
warnings of the certainty of evil consequences If the new Con
gress shall predicate its measures of farm relief upon a further
and considerable raising of the tariff as It affects the agricultural
and cattle interests ot our American neighbors.
Thoro can bo no doubt now that a boosting of the tariff will
bring roprlsals. True, there are farmers whom a wheat and
cattle duty would benefit -but, If they are benefitted, it must be
at the cost of our good customers in Canada and South America.
The next move of those countries will be to put prohibitive
duties on American products, and bo to open the door wldo to
Kuropotin exporters. -
Canada is In a position to strike back. While American ex
ports to Canada amount I o nearly a billion annually, Canada Bends
us no more than half as much. And much ot what Canada gets
from us she can JtiBt as well get from Britain, Germany and Bel
glum. In recent years we havo overtaken and passed Britain In
the Canadian market; but It would require no considerable ele
vation ot tariff upon American goods, as contrasted with those
of British manufacture,, to permit John Bull to ride back to his .
old situation. , !.-"'
- As for South America, I recall one expert In Latin American
Affairs who warned ma In Washington weeks ago that an In
crease ot a tow cents In the duty upon linseed oil would destroy
, the last lingering Imno'tt -incident to Mr. Hoover's South Ameri
can excursion, at least' insofar hb the Argentine Is concerned.
Nothing would ho muro easy or natural-for Argentine than a
. policy of reprisal which would advantage the - European nations
eagerly seeking to regain lost ground, ready to make reciprocal
agreements to please tho Argentinians. ,
President Hoover knows this. . Congress is only concerned
with pleasing the constituents back ;home.
It's a forbidding Outlook from the. White House standpoint.
If President Hoover successfully rides the' storm, even his eno-
mies will have to couccdo his friends', olaim of true greatness.
Sho isn't an old maid until she gets mad about it.
Another good way to acquire control of your temper is to
associate with big fellows who have them,
How Mlnnlv flood control muni, seem to President. Hnovei'-
aftcr trying his hand on Congress. -
In his recommendation that strips of natural timber along
the main highways of Oregon bo preserved, Governor Patterson
is favoring a proposal which wo have frequently urged in this
column. Here is a proposition 'which must be attended to very
soon, or the opprtunity will havo passed forever.
Wo can't share the alarm 'of a contemporary over these
wholesale murders of one gang of racketeers by another gang.

KESIDES keeping the scientifically
correct temperature always, the
General Electric Refrigerator has many
unique features. This apartment model
has an all-steel cabinet that cannot warp
and that uses less current. It has all its
mechanism safely enclosed in an her
metically sealed steel casing. It is unu
sually quiet in operation, entirely auto
matic and worry-proof.

Health authorities agree that there is a
definite "danger point" in the preserva
tion of foods and this danger point is
fifty degrees. 50 degrees! When the tem
perature rises even a degree or two
above that, bacteria multiply and flour
ish foods spoil and become unsafe to '
cat ... a positive menace to good health.
Take your own refrigerator's temper
ature ... at different times of the day.
If it registers several degrees below
fifty under all conditions then you
will know that your food is being safely
preserved. If it doesn't, you owe it to
your family's health to investigate the
General Electric Refrigerator.
Come in and get all the details. Our plan
of conveniently spaced time payments
will place one in your home.
