Prosperity, Tariff and Prohi
bition Due for Heavy Dis-
. cussion Hoover to Be
Center Much Argument
By Byron Price,
(Chief of Bureau, The Associated ,
Press, Washington.)
Although It 1s too early by weeks
to attempt a complete catalog of
the campaign Issues of 1932, It now
can be predicted safely that the vot
ers will hear much about three old
acquaintances prosperity, the tariff
and prohibition.
If early spring signs mean any
thing, the argument will run some
thing like this:
The Democrats will accuse presi
dent Hoover of weakness, procrasti
nation and large-scale blundering
with respect to the depression, and
will assert that events have exploded
once and for all the boasts that the
Republican party Is the party of
prosperity.
The Republicans will praise the
President for having kept the coun
try's soil and body together at all
In a time of world-wide distress,
and will thank Providence that no
Democrat was In the White House
In such an hour.
Tariff Issue to Come Up.
The Democrats will blame the
present Republican tariff for dislo
cations at home and loss of prestige
abroad, and will ask that the Presi
dent be shorn of his one-man power
over rate changes.
The Republicans will declare their
tariff policies have helped greatly In
present crisis, will defend the presi
dential rate-changing prerogative,
and will argue It would be dangerous
to both Industry and labor to put
tariff-making Into Democratic hands
The Democrats, either through
their patform or their candidate, or
both, will ridicule the Hoover pro-
hlbltlon regime, and bid in one way
or another for the support of oppo
nents of the dry laws.
The Republicans may -conceivably
make some concessions to the wets,
but they will try valiantly to retain
the support of those dry elements
who now are threatening to bolt.
Doubtless other Issue will be heard
from, too, although some of the fav
orites, such as taxation and foreign
relations, seem to have been read
out of the campaign by bi-partisan
action In congress. The sure starters,
as of today, are the three named
above, and each of these three may
be expected to kick up a lot of dust
on the way to the finish line.
Hoover Faces Attack.
The debate over what has been
done and what has not been done for
economic recovery, of course, will
cover a lot of territory.
From the moratorium to the re
construction finance corporation, the
Hoover leadership will be assailed
as halting and tardy, moved to ac
tion only at the last minute, when
direct necessity applied the lash
Farm relief, unemployment, and
many other collateral Issues will fur
nish talking points In the general
dispute.
The Republicans are making elab
orate preparations to combat this at
tack. They will picture to the coun
try a President beset by pressure day
and night and without holiday to
' avert catastrophe, seeking advice
everywhere, and doing all that mor
tal man could do.
Tariff Front Changed.
The tariff dispute will present a
situation greatly revised since the
old days when the Republicans con
stituted the party of protection and
the Democrats stood together for a
tariff for revenue only.
Recently many Democrat have
being voting for Republican tariff
bills. The Democrats In the present
congress have put through a bill de
claring a general policy of readjust
ment, but refraining from that sort
of unrestrained denunciation which
frightens business.
The Issue Is most clearly joined on
the question of continuing the presi
dential authority to raise and lower
rates; although It is a somewhat
technical subject, the voter will be
asked to study and understand It.
Parties Spilt on Dry Issue.
Only the most general of tenden
cies are yet apparent with respect to
prohibition.
Both parties are divided, but It Is
worth noting that the modification
lata are centering their efforts vig
orously toward a referendum or modi
cation plank In the Democratic
platform, while the drys apply most
of thler pressure on the Republicans.
Furthermore, It seems certain that
on the presidential roll calls at Chi
cago at least nine out of every ten
Democratic delegates will vote for
one candidate or another who favors
a change, and at least nine of every
ten Republicans will support Presi
dent Hoover, whose attitude has been
accepted In the past as satisfactory
to the organised drys.
Finally, It Is well to remember that
this la one Issue to which things
may continue to happen and prob
ably will right up to election day.
