would but realize how directly their
State and county taxes would be in­
creased by the government taking
over the railroads.
The railroads, owned by the gov­
ernment, could not be taxed by the
Individual states.
In agricultural
states and counties an enormous
share of the tax burden is carried by
the railroads, which would otherwise
devolve upon the farmers.
Take the case of Porter County,
Indiana, The total tax paid there
last year was 11,334,240. And of this
amount, the railroads paid $493,326—
more than a third. If the govern­
ment owned the railroads, the farm­
ers of Porter county would be paying
an additional half million dollars in
taxes— and that is only in one county.
If these few bare facts were realiz­
ed by the farmers, it should be suffi­
cient in itself to eliminate from con­
sideration forever any candidate for
anything running on a government
railroad ownership platform.
ASK MA. SHE KNOWS
The American housewife whose
family breadwinner was among the
4,500,000 unemployed workers men­
tioned by Mr. Samuel Gompers in
1920, knows that employment and
wages are more secure and better
than they were under the Democratic
free trade tariff policy of that dis-
tressfui year. She knows full well
that these better conditions exist un­
der the present Republican policy of
protection to American industries.
Nobody in all our broad land knows
so much about the horrors of indust­
rial idleness as does the American
housewife. She handles the purse
and does the weekly marketing. She
knows what unemployment, part-time
work or low wages mean to the house
hold. She knows that when the purse
is low and empty, it matters not how
cheap goods may be on the market,
she must curtain the purchases of
meats, groceries and clothing for the
family.
If every American housewife who
remembers the trying days of 1919
and 1920, under the Democratic free
trade tariff, and Ahe millions of work­
men out of employment, will carry
that memory with her to the ballot
box this year, Coolidge and Dawes
will have an overwhelming majority
over the combined opposition of Dem-
ocratic free trade candidates and
the candidates of the Socialist-third
party experiment in government.

HERE IS THE RECORD
What has the Republican adminis­
tration accomplished in the way of
economy ?
Briefly these things:
Reduction of the public debt by
more than $3,000,000,000, saving in
interest alone more than $135,000,-
000 a year.
Reduction of the cost of running
the federal government of more than
$2,000,000,000 a year.
Reduction of the number of em­
ployees on the federal payroll by
close to 100,000.
The establishment and operation of
a budget system in handling the fiscal
affairs of the federal government, re­
sulting in economies hitherto thought
impossible.
Ending of the naval construction
races of the great powers, which laid
terrific tax burdens on the whole
world, through the Conference for the
Limitation of Armaments.
A record any party could be proud
of, and particularly proud when it is
remembered that conditions almost
chaotic were inherited from the pre­
ceding administration.
THAT TARIFF PLANK
The Democratic pla form says that
the Fordney-McCumber tariff i s;
“The most unjust, unscientific and
dishonest Tariff measure ever enacted
in our history.”
Under the operation of this tariff
measure 5,000,000 unemployed work­
ers have found work nt the highest
level of wages ever known; our ex­
ports increased more than $1,500,000,-
000, and thirdly, our duties from im­
ports have added some $1,100,000,000
to our national treasury.
