THE NEW VIEW: OF THE TARIFF: — There has been a decided change in the view of the democratic leaders as to the tariff question and there seems to be a rather unanimous desire for equitable tariff that will protect every one who needs protection without furnishing an extra profit tariff. The following from the New York World is worth your time if you are interested in this great economic question which has been a subject for political controversy for more than three score years: “There is still a tariff issue between the two major parties. But It is no longer an issue of “Protection vs Free Trade." It is no longer even an issue of "Protective Tariff vs. Tariff for Revenue Only." Both parties now accept the protective purpose of the tariff. But they differ on the question how the protection shall be distributed. The Republican tendency is to think first of big industries that have already profited heavily by the tariff. The Democratic instinct is toward a leveling down and leveling up of the tariff to make protection for all industries, including agriculture, more equitable. . < . '. “ This newer division is still entirely consistent with fundamental, historic differences in the respective attitudes of the two parties. Nor is increasing Democratic acceptance of the protective element in the tariff abandonment of what could ever have been called an essential or enduring party principle. Protection and free trade were 1 never principles in the sense that . State rights, local self-government, personal liberty are principles—permanently assuring consistent national 1 development and the preservation of i freedom and happiness. The tariff is , an economic policy fitted to economic conditions, changing with those con- 1 ditions. A South mainly agricultural, < exporting cotton, saw no good in a ( tariff that reduced the buying power of her foreign customers and increas- ' ed the price of manufactured articles ' she had to buy at home. Fait a South i becoming more and more industrial- ; ized naturally takes a different view. ' It is not a question of human rights or of governmental structure. It is a question of business—new policies j to meet the requirements of new products. “Hence the present Democratic ‘ move in a direction frankly admitted 1 by James W. Gerard when he declar- j ed recently at Houston that "the tariff is no longer a partisan political issue ] and ought not to be so regarded by I the people and the Democratic party. t I am one of many Democrats who are not afraid to say that protection with- ' out robbery schedules is essential to 8 industrial prosperity and the contin- t tied employment of labor." Hence the increasing number of Democrats 3 in <ongress who vote with the Republicans on tariff rates. Hence the plank in the Democratic platform of 1928 I calling for "duties that will permit . effective competition.’ tariff rates based on 'actual difference between the ' cost of production at home and abroad, i with adequate protection for the wage , of the American laborer.' “Much water has gone over the dam since the Democratic platform of 1856 ’ proclaimed: ’The time has come for the people of the United States to declare themselves in favor of free seas and progressive free trade throughout the world.' The world is on a very different track today. Free trade is a dead duck. Tariff for revenue only is a dead duck, though it has not I been dead quite so long. Time and I again the Democratic party has found these corpses, poor consolation for defeat. In recent years the Indus triallzatlon of the South has combined with the Immense volume of industry in the East to force the party into a new attitude toward the tariff. And. after all, the tariff is so plainly a matter of economics that the effort to take it completely out of politics is perennial and may some day succeed. Meanwhile, however, the Democratic party can make good use of its )

TODAY’S CHUCKLE El Paso. Tex.. July 11—(UJl>— His hat was In the ring for 90 mln utes. Then Joe Bryan, who had announced he was running for county attorney, changed his mind and withdrew from the race. demand for "equitable distribution of the benefits and burdens of the tariff among all.' Here the Republican armor is notoriously weak. And the farmer, particularly, ie waking up to the fact that a tariff that puts extra profits into the pockets of groat industries already long protected and over protected is a tariff that puts a hundred grasping hands into his own pocket. " Equitable distribution* is a slogan that should do good service in this campaign. It is a real principle, a sound principle—a principle fundamentally, traditionally, permanently Democratic. It applies perfectly to the tariff."

I n ■ BUY A FARM:— A few years ago we advised you to buy Liberty bonds when they were ' selling below par. If you did you made some easy money. Now we are ' telling you with just as much con-. fidence to buy a farm in Adams I county. Those who do will make more than they made on bonds. Reports from various sources in-. dicate that a rising market on lands ' in Indiana has already begun. The ! Indianapolis News after an interview with men in charge of the real estate ( department of the Washington Bank ' and Trust Company of Indianapolis declares that to be true. That agency shows a healthy increase in the farm sales the past few months, with land selling in central Indiana at as high as S2OO per acre. They have handled three milion dollars worth of farm real estate so far this year and estimate values have already increased twenty-five per cent. They anticipate a rise in values of from fifty to seventy-five per cent the next three years and remember this comes from a conservative bank. In this county you may still buy wonderful values, farms at a price which would not replace the improvements. In other words you get the land for less than nothing. How can you lose? This condition will not continue long so if you intend to buy, do it soon. Senator Robinson, the democratic nominee for vice-president insists on a campaign through the south to offset the third party and bolt ideas. He is probably right in his surmise that the safe thing to do is to campaign in every democratic state as though there is danger of losing it and to campaign in every republican state even though chances don’t appear so good for carrying it. No one knows just what the results of this years election will be any where, for the issues are some what different than in past campaigns. Some where near three thousand invitations for Old Home Week have been sent out but each day we hear of former residents in the county who have been overlooked. How about it? Have the names of your friends been published in the lists which have ap-; peared in this paper? If not. send! the name and address to French Quinn, secretary, who will see they are duly invited. We want them all to know about the big week. Won’t you help do that? Acceptances are now coming in to the Old Home Week invitations. The folks are coming home to help’ us celebrate, to meet old friends and to make new ones, to see the children of the old timers they knew, to tell over the stories of the old days. Won’t it be fine? Come on. lets do It right. Everybody should catch the spirit and help make it the greatest celebration of its kind ever put on here. Old Home Week will include a i school day. a farm and dairy day, a > fraternal day, industrial day and will open with a big reception and close with a display of fire works. These occasions will be filled in with a hundred features that ought to make the week a real one. It will require a lot of work by a lot of people but I we will all have a lot of fun out of it. When the three approach roads to Decatur, the Country Club, the Hurst i and rhe Wemhoff are completed, this

' WORKMAN CAN BUY HOME ON I $2,400 YEARLY • • • Washington, (UP>—The U. S. Bureau of education reports that a high school home economics class of South Bend. Ind., has worked out a plan to purchase a b me and furnish it, on a salary of $2,400 a year. The class assumed that the home purchaser had saved $1,600. The house cost $6 400 in I henry. The class calculated that the cost of a home may be approximately two and one-half times the annual income. Hence, if the house is purchased on land contract. 10 per cent f the vain*’ must he'paid down, and the rest paid in monthly installments consisting of one per cent of the balance, it was figured. This plan makes ownership possible in about eight years and six months. Os the $1,600. S6OO is paid down on Hie home and SI,OOO for furnishings. Tlie furnishing were distributed as f Hows; kitchen $115.50; dining room $225.68; living room $323; bedroom $296.30: bathroom. $35. The class budgeted the annual salary as follows: Food. 22 per cent; shelter 33 per: cent, consisting of the payments on the j house, taxes and insurance; clothing 14 per cent; operating expenses (coal lights, gas. water, general upkeep) 12 per cent "higher life" including life insurance dental and medical services, recreation, theater, books newspapers stx 7 per cent saving 12 per cent. o X ¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥ X‘ * NEWS FROM MAGLEY * X¥¥¥¥¥¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ X Mr. and Mrs Charles Dettinger and daughter Bettie and Mr. and Mrs. G.
