The time has come when we are ceasing to be a food exporting nation, and must look well to guaranteeing that we shall be self-sustaining. A failure to be self-sustaining In agri culture, In our food supply, will mean the weakness which afflicted and threatened one or more of our great allies In the World war. Failure to be self-sustaining would be a menace to us In war, and a menace to us in peace. "We have adequate national and international reasons for keeping alive our necessary agricultural industries when they are threatened by competion from lands of cheap labor or new and exploited Boil, by a protective duty upon our imports of food. And, of course, I use the word agriculture in its broader sense, including horticulture. "I think a case In point is your own citrus and other fruit industries of California. America mus t ask herself if she will allow these industries to be threatened in their very exis tence by the invasion of foreigngrown fruits cultivated, in some cases, under a subsidy given by a foreign government, by labor which knows nothing of our own American standards of living. "My answer is that Just as the fruit growers of California are willing to put America first, so must America be fir3t in upholding their efforts, and that if to save this or any other worthy and developing ag ricultural industry of America, tariff protection is necessary, then tariff protection must be given.

Senator Harding charged, in a speech to a delegation of railroad workers here Monday, that by assuming control of the roads at all the Wilson administration had sought to promote a policy based on permanen Government operations. Had the experiment proved a success, the Republican nominee declar ed, the administration would have favored retention of the transportation nnes ana otner puDiic utilities under government control. The war, he said, had offered an opportunity to try out the scheme only because it permitted administration officials to take advantage of the anxieties of the people, in asking authority to take over the properties.

The Cummins-J Escb bill, he said, was the best measure congress could work out in the time allotted and gave to both railway owners and employes a Just guarantee to rights. Cheered in Hitting Class Rule, Several hundred union men composing the Harding and Coolidge Railway Club of Marion, were in the delegation and they cheered the nominee as he hit at class rule and lauded the labor provisions of the act. They carried banners expressing their support in such inscription as "government must change conductors." "Harding will not sidetrack us" and "Safety first; elect Harding." J. W. 'Roseberry, past president of the local unit of Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, presented the delegation to Senator Harding and told him they hoped by coming to prove the fallacy of "the impression that railway workers are opposed to your candidacy because of your support of the Cummings-Esch act."
