RAILROADS FIGHI EÌGHT-HOUR DAY

THEY CHANGE SUBJECTS Candidates Answer Each Other’s Arguments i The candidates for United States Senator switeh subjects in thè Times forum today. Albert ,1. Beveridge, Republiean candidate, has been speaking on foreign relations, and Samuel M. Ralston, Democratic candidate, has been speaking on taxes. Today Mr. Beveridge takes up tho subject of taxes and Mr. Ralston discusses foreign relations. In this way readers of those columns aro given an opportunity to read discussions of both sides o£ these questiona and to make up their mlnds. The statements follow:

The amount of time and cnergy Mr. Beveridge has been spending in attacking tho Lcague of Natiuns, which is not un issue in this campalgn, leads uno to believe he has some definito motivo in mind. In expressing JHHfI opposition to thè loaguo, it begius to look very rnuch as though Mr. Beveridge wants to £ *1 ho üble to suy in 1924, in tho IL k 1 evont ho is elected Senator next Bp’l Tuesday, that ho did not stand ■jfljL .j| ~” v l for thè four power pact, and 1 tliat as Presidi nt of tho United I States ho would in no way ho bound by Jts provisions.

Let us apply tini test of his own logie to his own record. At Evansville recently he oommended in glowing terms thè Fordney-McCumbor tariff bill and laid par ticuiar stress on thè flexiblo provision which givea thè President thè power to lncreaso tariff taxes as inuch as 50 por cent, 1 have attacked tliìs provision as unconstltutlonal. I learned Just a few days ago that in this opinion X bave thè support of Mr. Beveridge himself. In June, 1909. when tho Sonato was considerili® tho Payne-Aldrk-h tariff bill, Senator Owen advocated an amendment giving tho President power to incroane or deerease cortnin mtos. Senator Beveridge objected on tho grounds that to givo tho President this power would he to givo him a power purely log islativo in character, and that tho dutb-s of tho Presi - dent were executive and not legislativo in charactor Now Mr. Beveridge is ndvocatlng tho very prò Vision he opposed while Senator in 1909. I ara led to bellevo from wliat I see in thè pres supporting Mr. Beveridge that he has given some attention to thè legai mind of John Marshall Islam corroet tu this conduslon.
