Here Lists President's
Acts in Saving Country
Tariff Necessity Stressed
Stamping as "downright Ilea" much
of the propaganda against President
Hoover, which the Democratic candi
date and his workers have been
broadcasting to the American people.
Buron Fitts, Los Angeles district at
torney, and war veteran Friday night
told a crowd of over 600 at the Nata
torium, why he Intends to vote for
Iloover again this term. His appear
ance here was under the sponsorship
of the Veterans' Republican club.
Numerous Instances of Hoover's
actions which have saved the United
States from catastrophes were cited
by Mr. Fitts, who told how Hoover
was successful In keeping the country
on a gold standard after he had been
Informed by Secretary of the Treasury
Ogdea Mills that the United States
had only two weeks to remain on the

tries along the Pacific coast, .Mr.
Pitts said:
"I cannot understand how any clti
wn living la California, Oregon or
Washington could do other than vote
the Republican ticket, and thereby,
Herbert Hoover. The Democratic prin
ciples of competitive ana reciprocal
tariff would mean economic suicide
for the Pacific coast.
"If Mr. Roosevelt should attempt
to carry out his theory of competitive
tariff, our farmers, cattlemen and
fruit growers would be face to face
with the alternative of either lower
ing wages, costs of production and
our living standards down to the
wage level and wage standard of
Mexico, South America and other
countries, or operate at a cost equal
to the difference between the wage
level and living conditions of the
countries Involved.
"It is economically Impossible for
the cattlemen of Oregon to compete
with the cattlemen of Mexico.
Lumber Cannot Compete
"The lumber industry of Oregon
and Washington cannot compete with
the lumber Industry of Canada with
coolie labor. It Is totally Impossible
for the orange and lemon growers of
California to compete with Italy and
citrous growers of other countries
without jeopardizing our methods of
living and the wage scale that has
made possible our standard of living
In the past."
He went on to say: "I have heard
during the course of the campaign
of tiie Indifference of the Republican
party to the welfare of War veterans.
I have been active In Veterans' af
fairs since the war, have been a past
commander of the Legion in Califor

the first Sweet bill passed In congress
which raised compensation for the
totally disabled from $30 to $100 per
month.
Kind to Veterans
"We found It utterly Impossible to
get any veterans' relief legislation by
a Democratic congress under Wood-
row Wilson, and It was necessary to
wait until the Republican party got

Every piece of remedial relief legis-,
latlon for the benefit of Civil war
veterans, Spanish War veterans and
World war veterans has been passed

ministration." "I believe Tammany hall to be the
most corrupt organisation that Amer- '
lea has ever known. It has made Jus
tice in New York a mockery. It has
prostituted the right of every Amer-!
lean citizen to decent government. I
can't believe that our Western peo
ple have forgotten that nation-wide
scandal of a year or so ago when
Judgeships In New York were openly
bartered over the counters of Tam
many hall. It Is to the credit of Wood
row Wilson and Orover Cleveland
(Democrats) that they fought Tam

"We find that however, today, Tam

are not predicated upon the desire

LIBRARIANS TOLD
Librarians of southern Oregon held
on Thursday and Friday at Ktaamth
Falls their annual conference with
the state librarian. Miss Harriet O.
Long.
Discussions' were given over to tech
nical problems and Important cur
rent books. Following the Thursday
evening banquet Miss Long addressed
the gathering on the work of the
state library in the wide reaches of
the state, In which there are no
county libraries, 27 counties In all.
An outstanding feature of the con
ference was the closing address by
R. C. aroeebeck, president of the
chamber of commerce and member
of the Klamath county library board.
As a successful and experienced
business man, he Indicated the im
portance of libraries to the continued
growth and efficiency of business. His
argument was outlined as follows:
"Libraries are essential to the sta
bility of government which Is the
very foundation of business; that
stability of government Is Impossible
without clear thinking on the part
of Individuals and clear thinking de
pends on the furnishing of the minds
of individuals with accurate and com
plete Information upon which to re
flect. "Business bears the burden of all
social activity, the burdens of Illit
eracy, of crime, of sickness and un
employment; that In the Illiteracy
of 1.000.000 persons In the United
States a vast amount of man power
is lost to the business world through

caused confinement of 3,600,000 per

might be averaged at $1500 per year
and therefore causing loos of a great
purchasing power In the business
world crime being In large part
preventable by the better Information,
broader outlook and Increased op

tion of books.
"That the sickness of 1,500,000 per
sons witnesses a great lack of 'the
wisdom of body that Is so necessary
to efficiency and that is so easily
obtainable through the printed word.
"That In the problem of unem
ployment looming so large In recent

of foresight, lack of preparation can
be In large part overcome by enreful
and well directed reading, for libra
ries are the greatest Instruments of
all for the adjustment of individual
lives, and for sane relations In social
life."
The conference was made particu
larly enjoyable by the beauty of the
Klamath public library building and
by the courtesy and though tfulnese
of the hostesses. Miss Enola Hawkins
of the city library and Miss Margaret
Nye of the Klamath county library,
