- ..-.I a- - ACTION IS CONDEMNED i Underwood, In Address at University of Virginia, Advocates Political Uplift—Motto Is Caution. ('tiarlotteoville Va. —A plea for conservausaa in politics, a "stop, look, listen'' policy to guard against hasty adoption of ill-considered proposals, was the keynote of an address on "The I'eudancy of Our Tinies" delivered at tbs University ot Virgluia by Representative Oscar W. Underwood of Alabama, Democratic leader in the house of representatives. It was a notaJMe occasion at CharlottseMMs, with many of those who have gone forth from the university in the past reassembled to pay tribute to their alma maker Mr. Underwood is president of the alumni, and bls hod was among the grtMiuates He preached the doctrine ' of the political uplift. "Only a few years ago,' he said, "a 1 poßileat party that contended that wttj Ba -I \ . .y Oscar W. Underwood. taxes on consumption should be abolished aud that part of the government burdens should be borne by the »faith of the country was haled before the bar of public opinion as being guilty of extreme radicaliam. "Yet even those who condemned the proposal have enacted a law taxing corporate wealth and have teased to protest against an equitable income tax that shall fairly distribute a part of the tax burdens of the government on incomes derived from all • lasses of property. The tendency of our times undoub'edly is toward greater freedom >f thought, uplift to humanity, abolshment of governmental privilege. ■quaUzation of the taxation burdens and an open, honest administration ot he laws What may be regarded as radical tolay may be the inner citadel of conervatism tomorrow. 30Y S FLAG SAVES RICH MAN Weakness of Struggling Victim of Bull Meant Certain Death, but for Red Emblem.
