Mai bran, of ' Argentina, speaking at a New York foreign trade convention, suggested, ‘ that his country might be forced to | Hembark on a policy of high tariffs!

VWe have reached the point in this hass.-.d<‘rs'd-> not hesitate to inter-j jfere iB domestic political "concerns, in i the interests of their own countries and against the interests of the j United States. It will be recalled that j !P: < Cleveland gave a British ■ m.•....-sad >r his walking papers for ..conduct of this sort, but times nave changed. The people of the United [States have become so accustomed to hea : c their country traduced -and mteres'.s attacked by domestic authat attacks upon American! ■domestic policies, accompanied by tb.:e;its of reprisal, from the official .-t-■ of foreign nations; pass w; h -.:'. a sign of resentment. , ' The statement *«,f the Argentine ambassador is especially impudent, because the Argentine now collects, ■and has long collected, a larger per- < centage of the value of her imports .; in customs .thai he -United States. -Moreover in her dealings with ; the United States the Argentine has. ! e. yed a large pi >fit in the balance.' •of trade. ■ - 1 tariff law- raised the rates on agricultural imports. This ; was not to discriminate against Ar- J getitine products, principally agricul-l.-r, ;. as the Argentine ambassador a well knows, but was due to the depression in the American faun in 1 .dustiy which demanded special treatimentr The farmer cannot . 4 -he - mpetiti n of i vheap land, cheapTaborjnd low wa•.ei freight rates from South Amer-; i ica. I ■ About the' time the ambai fi o'., the A entine made his speech, Governor Wopdring of Kansas was [demanding that the tariff-be increas[ed »i. agricultural Imports, and reduce- on manufactured products, although 'he rates on farm products are much higher than on factory-pro-ducts. The Kansas governor belie’.«te •ha: :he wav to i.ncrease ■ farm prosperity is to close American factories through the pressure of foreign cheap l?.b >r c- :'petition, stop some more eating in the United States, thus redusir.g further the demand for the. foodstuffs produced by the farmer, in order that Kansas farmers may b«y manufactured products made by cool-: ies and peas.-mt§ in foreign lands whose power to consume American farm products would be next to noth- i mg. it only goes to show how far [ politicians will go in blinding people: to their own true interests by preaching sectional or occupational selfishness as an American economic rem-t cdy. ' • | Assistant Secretary of Commerce Klein, in speaking al the New York economic conference, called attention to the fact that in 1930, 67 per cent j >f American imports came in duty free, denied that the present tariff wus excessively high, and said that the decline in our exports was in fair piopi .tiun to the general decline of world trade. He might have gone further and said that hundreds of thousands of American* are out of work because we are turning our home market over to the cheap producers of foreign' lands, while at the same time we are compelled to listen to the ballyhoo of international bankers and industrialists and their metropolitan newspaper organs in favor • of tearing down the inadequate tariff barriers we have to protect American wages and living standards. American interests will some day lind a voice in national politics as against this vicious campaign of misrepresentation of the American protective policy, and foreign ambassadors, importing houses, and international bankers and industrialists will be haultgd ip their program of im poverishing America to enrich the I rest of the world, which is poor chiefly because it has based its policies on cheap production mostly achieved by < cheapening the worker. * i

THE SYRACUSE JOURNAL

JEFFERSON SUSTAINED I I ___ -■ | The United States Supreme Court | has decided that two subjects of hisBritanic majesty,, one a war nurse and one an army chaplin during the World War, cannot become citizens of the United States while denying the obligation to defend this countryin case of war. against armed enemies, foreign or domestic, by the onlymeans through which such defense can be offered, namely, by arms. The applications for citizenship of these two persons have been elaborately I staged, and accompanied by organiz-, ed publicity, and it appears prob-( able that they have been part of the propaganda by which it is sought to establish a doctrine now- being widely preached, that participation in the national defense in case of invasion or insurrection is a matter for the individual “conscience.” The federal anti state constitutions lay upon the citizen just one specific! obligation, which is that he is a member of the unorganized militia,' subject to call in case of insurrec-j lion or invasion. It is true that the! government does not compel combat-■ ant service by genuinely conscientious objectors. To give to every citizen the right, in case the arriied I enemies of the nation attempt to de-1 stroy it, to hide behind the pretense i of conscientious disagreement with his country’s cause, regardless of the real motive, and in this way reject: the necessary obligation all loyal y citizens must accept, would be to.j open the door to paralysis of national defense. (Citizenship is a privilege, not a right, to ah alien who seeks it. Since [ under our laws, every native born citizen is a member of the unorganized militia, subject to call in case of i invasion or insurrection, there is no good reason why special privileges | should be g ranted to those who offer I to change their allegiance from ai [ foreign power. The alien who under- j •akts to dictate the terms upon which t he will accept the privileges ofi American citizenship, should be per- f f niitted to remain in the full enjoy-' [ment of his present national allegi-' ,'ance. We have all ’to< many Ameri-! cans, both native and foreign born, who are ready to accept the benefits' of American citizenship, but are un-| willing to perform the duties that go| along with.it, ' I : here’ is no danger that the Ai.:er-« ! ican people are going to enter upon any unjust war any war of aggression or invasion. We cannot enter j upon such a war without the approv-! al of the representatives of the; American people in Congress -assembled, .and' Congress will declare no war except writh the approval of the people, which will be more slowly given in future than at any past time. The) assumption in advance by any alien! that the American people are goingJ to enter upon wars w hich the consciences of righteous men cannot ap- ( prove is an impudent one. Perhaps, as British citizens whose life-time associations have’ been with the people and the institutions of a foreign power, their consciences might hot approve defense of this nation in case of attack by their one-time country-! men. At any rate, there seems to be J no good reason for placing aliens ; in i a privileged class as an inducement] to. have thenv accept the right to vote ■ and to enjoy the exemptions and opportunities that come with American citizenship. • When war conies, howevgr, there! is just one question involved. Under attack, either the American nation and people must be conquered, or it must conquer the enemy. The only question to be determined by individual "consequence” then, is whether arms in the hands of an enemy must prevail, or arms in the hands of the American people. In that case as a i matter of fact, neither the Yale theological professor nor the New York nurse, would be compelled to physically fight. They would be expected, however, to fulfill the same obligations imposed upon all other American citizens. They could not on "conscientious” grounds refuse to pay taxes . .»e ■ he} d■beik ve m’ he cause of their country, and if they could reject other obligations of citizenship at such a time they could repudiate that one. We are told that if one wants to appear “liberal” he must fall in with the idea that defending the nation against its armed enemies is a matter eagh cl.izen must decide for himself. Why apply this to military service alone? Why not be enough to argue that submission to any decision of our government should be a matter purely of personal choice? Thomas Jefferson was something of a “liberal.” He said that “submission to the will of the majority is the vital principle of republics.” The majority members of the Supreme Court would rather be right than play for applause by the noisy and somewhat crowded “liberal” gallery. They have sustained Thomas Jefferson’s opinion when applied to the question of the preservation of the very life of the -republic. ' Q DON’T SUFFER from stomach trouble. See Dr. Warner. He will help you. Goshen. Phone 176. _ adv 0 LET GEORGE DO IT This is a liberal country. Every- . body’s willing for other people to pay high taxes and wages.—Loraine 4 (O.) Jourpaj.
