Page Four WILLIAM JENNINS BRVAN on • THE CAMPAIGN OF 1924” I shall not discuss the relative merits of candidates. It is difficult to decide between candidates until the issues are clearly outlined, Con ditions make issues and issues make candidates. . Before taking up the issues of the coming campaign, permit me to say the country is to be congratulat ed upon the fact that our cam paigns have been lifted to a high er plane than those of the preceding campaigns. There is less abuse of men and more charity of opinion; not less conviction or courage in expression, but more courtesy. It is we’l that it is se. The two great parties do not differ in purpose of its patriotism but in opinion and point of view. And so with public men. They differ, not so much in character as in fund amental bias, which—throug often unconscious—determines their views on public questions. Whether a public man leans toward the side of “Bib business” or the side of the people, is to be determined not by what he says but by what he does. The issues now before the coun try test the bias of eadeis and the poinet of view of the parties. The difference in biase and point of view is so pronounced that the coming campaign seems likely to be the most hotly contested campaign in many years. The paramount issue at this time seems quit sure to be the question of taxation, and in cludes the policy of the govern ment on the income tax on the traiff question. • The Tax Situation Secretary Mellon nas laid his proposed revenue bill before the Committee and the discussion has already resulted in an alignment in Congress that ignores party lines. If you will take the two bills, the Mellon bill and the Demo cratic substitute, you will find that the Mellon bill gives less reduc tion in taxation and favors those with large incomes over those with small incomes. The Democratic substitute not only makes a greater reduction in taxation, and thus brings more relif to the tax payers, but the reductions proposed discriminate in favor of the masses, instead of the holders of large incomes. Congressman Hall, Chairman of the Democratis National Commit tee, has made a comparison df the rates and pointed out that the Democratic substitute gives more relief than the Mellon bill to over lillion taxpayers while the MeMellon bill gives more relief than the Democratic bill to only twelve twelve thousand are persons with thousand taxpayers —and these large incomes. No bill could better illustrate the differenoen in the policy of the two parties, the Democratic party favoring reduction for all, both rich and poor, while the Republi can bill favors more relief to the rich than to the poor. The revenue measure when it passes Congress and reaches the President will bear more resemblance to the Demo cratic substitute than to Secretary Mellon’s original bill. And Tariff, Too The Democrats will also en deavor to secure a reduction of the tariff and the Republican organiza tion will in all probability oppose it. Here, too, the difference be tween the two parties will be noticeable. The bonus presents another issue. The Democratic and many of the Republicans will favor oonus, while "big business’* oppose ot. Secretary Mellon at tempted to make tax reduction dependent upon the defeat of the bonus. There is no reason why we should not have both tax reduction and the bonus! In fact, we should have more tax reduction than Sec retary Mellon proposed and we should also have the bonus. The money necessary ty pay the bonus can be raised by special taxes that need not bar upon the masses at all. Then, too, the government might restore to a specific tax on war profits, such as was proposed two years ago. While nearly all of the people were suffering be cause of the war, a few men made enormous profits out of the war. Why not make * these war-rich profiteer* pay the boys who took the risks while the profiteer stayed at home and made money? The Farmer*' Attitude The farmers have the greatest grievance against the profiteers. They are selling upon parctially a pre-war level and buying on a level nearly fifty per cent, higher than the level on which they sell. The farmers constitute about thirty P«r cent of the population. How can prosperity be as great it it ought to be when nearly one- third of the people can only bpy about two-thirds as much as they could before the war? Secretary Mellon has not only discriminated against them in his tax recommendation but he was opposed to their having a repre sentative on the Federal Reserve Board. This was not due to any conscious hostility to agriculture but to an unconscious bias in favor of great commerical interests whoes claims for special privilege are antagonistic ' to the farmers demand for justicp. The laborer finds the Republican party unsympathetic, not because it dislikes the laboring men as such, but because-the big employers are closer to Republican leaders, and create the public opinion which im presses these leaders. Humanity demands remendial legislation and this legislation, though it may be delayed, cannot be prevented by re actionary sentiment in Congress or in the court. Society must move forward even if it is necessary to amend the Constitution. Anent Constitution It is likely that both parties will find it "necessary to declare in lavor of an amendment to the Constitu tion requiring six or seven judges to concur in the nullifying of leg islation, just as both parties are likely to declare in favor of an ammendment permitting the taxa tion of government bonds. Another issue that is likly to bring out verly clearly the tenden cies of the two great parties is the issue embodied in the authorization of temporary Federa operation of rairoads and coal mind whenever a strike or lock-out menaces the public welfare. The Democrats, giving prefer ence to the needs of the general public, will probably favor vesting the president with such power in emergencies, while the Republican leaders, leaning to the side of “big business,” will be likely to op pose legislation objectionable to large corporations. The progres sive Republicans will doubtless side with the Democrats, because on vital issues they are really near to the Democrats than they are to* the controlling influences of the Republican party. It is impossible, at this time, to say just to what extent interna tional questions will demand public attention. At present domestic issues overshadow international is sues, but the international issues cannot be ignored. What We Need I believe one of the greatest needs of the voters is a national Bulletin, that wiD insure the in formation necessary for intelligent consideration of issues.

The i Democratic party has to government by any class what ever, and therefore can consistent ly oppose turning the government over to a farmer’s party or to a laboring man’s party. How can the Republican party object consistently to a government by large gi%ups, such as farmers and laborers, when it has been will ing in the past to turn the govern ment over to small groups repre senting special interests?

Given his choice he decided on a future of music and before the tenth session of the school had passed he was “turned loose” from the school as a finished and ac complished musician.

FERTILIZERS FOR ORCHARD In Arkansas, it is found that a greater per cent of the apple blooms set fruit when nitrate of soda was applied abou tthree weeks before blooming than if applied earlier or later.

A good, all round fertilizer for which, apple, and other kinds of trees is one analyzing 8-4-4.

Spread it broad cast under the branches, going only up to within two to our eet of the trees and scattering it a ewfeet be yond the spread of the branches, and cultivate it in. The usual costom is to apply it just before the time to give the first cultivation. Young peach and apple trees— those set within the past year or two—should have about one and one half to two pounds per tree. Gradually increase this amount un til eight to twelve pounds is given to the large peach trees tnd twenty to twenty five pounds for the large apple trees. Where the fruit trees or grape vines have not made the growth that is desirable, from a half pound to two or three pounds of nitrate of soda or sulphate of ammonia should be given in addition to the fertilizer mentioned above.
