HAWLEY SAYS TARIFF RILL IS NOT TO BLAME Co-author Believes Measure Has Helped During Depression By Dennis Landry ! United Press Staff Correspondent Salem, Ore., July —(UP)—The Hawley Smoot tariff lias had no effect in euiusing the present business depression. Actually, tiie tariff tended to alleviate conditions for this country. Those are beliefs of Rep. Willis C. Hawley, Joint author of the tariff an i chairman of the house ways' jand means committee, i “We have a many sufiere.t a I smaller Relative loss in exports j than in domestic sales," Hawley | said. “Furthermore on'p a little j more than a fourth of our imports j du.ing the first five mont'y, of the ' Hawley-Smoot taiff were affected j by it at all, as 69.5 per cent of them came in duty free under its provi-
i sions. t "But on the other hand, the Fed-, eral Farm Bor; d said that the wheat farmers were benflted some 20 to 30 cents a bushel by the tar-1 iff. Although the prices are low at | best, without the tariff they would he lower. “As a matter of fact, foreign! trade has decreased only to the i same degree that domestic trade j has decreased, anti for the same reason. The American people, as l wel] as the people of the world generally, have decreased their buy ing. The lessening of demand has reduced prices and this lowering has been a dominant factor in the apparen: reduction in foreign trade. Rep. Hawley said it is up to this ( country to lead the way to happier j times. COUNTY ROADS IN GOOD SHAPE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) i Another oiling project, on State road 16 from Decatur to Huntington nas been completed and most of the oil on hat road has been absorbed by the stone on the road. After a few weeks, it is said, the oil roads will he almost as good as hat'd suraced roads. A survey of expenditures shows that less money has been spent and more work done by the county highway depa:intent this season, according to those close with the situation.

FRENCH PLAN FARMERS' DOLE | Paris, - (UP) The French Par- 1 iliiunent has under consideration I ! three projects to provide ftirmeis, ; with a bad-weather dole. Too heavy rains, or not enough long, dry spells which burn the | fields mildew, sales which tear off i ! roots or Hoods which ca ry Diestock < are all to he followed by immediate j cush payments. The plan calls for the creation j of a National Fund for Agricultural j Catamites, and th«j word calamities j J covers all atmospheric accidents ! It is proposed that the farmers join !a mutual insurance group, with | which the National Government would cooperate and advance molt- , ey. Hitherto, Parliament lias voted relief credits on the occasion of im 1 poitant floods and cyclones, extending I lie reljef to tiie colonies. Small atmospheric calamities, however, never obtain the government's relief j aid, and it is to aid tlierse sufferers :hat the National fund is design-) ed. | Last year Parliament voted money for the victims of Hie Garonne flood, the worst in French history Credits of 25,000,000 francs were' also opened for the victims of the Fourvieres landslide at Lyons, due j ,to continued ruins. Two million] i francs are also earmarked in the current budget so rrelief of farmers ] suffering crop damage. Self-Made Prisoner Tires of .Jail Food I Sunbury, Pa, —(UP) — John Hicks 55, the Kansas City man who stole a pair of shoes "because I could be sure of something to eat in Jail," is tired of his bargain. Jail fare is not to John's liking, it appears. He has written his protest to the warden of the jail here.
