Ti in colad ol out of s cry. These proposed duties will take two forms. Imported foods that do not compete directly with American foods will be taxed so Americans will eat domestic products instead of the foreign commodity. And where imported foods compete directly with home--grown farm products the former will be taxed to boost the price of the domestic article. *_There is a section of the industrial East to which this plan strongly appeals. The manufacturer whose main market is the farm naturally wants the farmers to have more money to spend. The banker who finances such manufacturers will stand with him in his aims. The workers employed by him will be equally im-- pressed by the argument. During the calendar year 1926 the value of agricultural ex-- ports from the United States was more than 75 per cent greater than the 1910--1914 average. During the first decade of the century there was a gradual decline in such exportation. 'The increase of 1926 was more than maintained in 1927. The prod-- ucts exported ranged from the apples of the north and. west to the rice and cotton of the south. One London fruit auctioneer alone reported business of nearly $200,000 with American ship-- pers with whom he was placed in touch directly by the special trade commissioner of Hoover's department. Hoover's department has been energetically and continuously at work to correct the post--war shrinkage in foreign demand for American farm products. The Hoover effort has been in the seeking of new markets and the development of new uses. Since agricultural products are chiefly necessities, the world de-- mand for them is limited, but the Hoover energy has been ap-- plied to develop the foreign market for American farm prod-- ucts to the highest point. And the effort has been successful, even in the fact of the rehabilitation of foreign agriculture since the war. Our yearly export of agricultural products is much higher in absolute quantity than before the war. . HOOVER HELP FOR THE FARMER So great and so profitable to American manufacturers and American workmen has been the activity of the department of commerce in the augmentation of foreign commerce for seven years under Herbert Hoover that sight may have been lost of the substantial help the: Hoover department has been to the farmers of the United States in promotion--of the export of farm products. That may be taken together with the great gain in the expansion of the manufactured goods for domestic consump-- tion and export which increase the demand for the farmer's products and furnish the means for higher standards of living of the agricultural population. HIGHER TARIFF ON FOOD That old--reliable remedy for economic ills, the tariff, is to be stretched again. It is a foregone conclusion that congress will impose new duties next winter to aid the farmer. Both parties are committed to that in their platforms. Opposition will come from the ultimate consumer, who will have to pay more for his bananas, tomatoes and other like com-- modities, and from the international bankers, who are financing as unsound, visionary and impractical. Contrary to general ex-- sectations, the speakers vwwhom we heard gave their support to that treaty, although they called on the nation to examine the pact carefully before ratifying it. When military leaders come about its benefits. Perhaps the future conventions of ex--service men will be among the leading workers for that long--sought era of good will. a . the enterprises that are shipping goods to American markets. The international bankers have already realized the predicament ir which the constant demand for higher tariff places them and their investors and debtors, and are seeking means to avoid the difficulties they see ahead. + THE KEY¥NOTE OF THE CONVENTION f 'Peace with preparedness!" f One would expect that a militaristic spirit would prevail at a convention attended by men who had gone to war and fea-- tured by men who make their living by directing soldiers, but at the recent American Legion convention in Waukegan the keynote was peace. True, the speakers emphasized the need of adequate defences and preparedness, but they also declared that international friendship was the only basis of the best future relations among the countries of the world. : Coming "right after the signing of the Kellogg pact, the state convention had the opportunity to attack that document An order of American griddle, Hell for golfers, it is naturally eakes and coffe costs $1 in Paris.'smd, is a place where they And that's what makes the home--|can't talk about their game even sick Yankee tourist sicker. ..___| though they make® a hole in one.
