A Vote For LANDON and KNOX Is A Vote For the
Return of SANE, ECONOMICAL GOVERNMENT!
SAVE OUR
WHO PAYS
LUMBER
INDUSTRY
In spite of the pleading of the north
west lumber industry, President Roose
velt hastily and without proper consid
eration reduced our tariff on lumber to
half of what it formerly was. Already
this has resulted in cheap foreign made
lumber pouring into the United States
until the importations for the first seven
months of this year were greater than for
the combined years of 1932, 1033 and
1034.
Opening our home markets to foreign
lumber without asking for similar privi
leges for our industry in markets from
which we are barred by preferential tar
iffs has made the Canadian mills extreme
ly prosperous at the expense of lumber
men in this country.
Taking down the bars to foreign lum
ber has 'given the Chinese, Japanese and
Hindus of British Columbia the most em
ployment they have had In years and
has deprived American workmen in the
northwest of hundreds of thousands of
dollars in payrolls they would have other
wise received.
In the past when we have had no pro
tection again foreign competition it has
always wrecked our domestio lumber
markets. It will do the same thing again.
Elect men to office who will restore
the protective tariff on lumber, which
President Roosevelt has romoved. Elect
Landon and Knox.
Relief and
Re-Employment
Roosevelt's Promise
"It is no time for dolay when 11,000,
000 of honest, industrious and willing
men and women are tramping the streets
and roads of our country looking for
work . . . and we of the Democratio party
wUl not wait."

Dellrltncy Appropriation Bill. 1039)
The Republican
Platform
ON RE-EMPLOYMENT
Tho only permanent solution of the
unemployment problom is the absorption
of the unomployod by industry and agri
culture. To that end, we advocato:
Romoval of restrictions on production.
Abandonment of all New Doal nolicics
that raise production costs, inorease the
cost of living, and theroby restrict buying,
rcduco volume and prevent ro-omploy-mont.
Encouragomont instead of hindrance to
legitimate business.
Withdrawal of. government from com
petition with privato. payrolls:
Elimination of unnecessary and ham
pering regulations.
Adoption of such other policies as will
furnish a chnnce for individual enterprise,
industrial expansion, and tho restoration
of jobs.
