10 A THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: OCTOBER 15, 1916. HUGHES TRAVELS ' w nrrnn mnnMini AUKUbo MltoUUttl Tells People of Joplin the Evils , That Demos Will Bring After the War. COUNTRY NEEDS TARIFF Joplin, Mo, Oct 14. Charles . Hughes yesterday took his campaign to Missouri, the fourth state that skirt the so-called "solid south," to be visited on his present trip. Save for one stop, at Springfield. Mo, the en tire day was spent traveling. The nominee reached Joplin last night and addressed an audience in a big tent, making his chief theme the protective tariff. ' ' Mr. Hughes told the crowd that the present prosperity of the country was built on sand, that "the intoxicated fancy may indulge happy dreams, but the sober thought ot the country is directed to the day when this stimu lantthe European war will be no longer available."' , . Attacks Adaroson Law. ., He referred to "Those who are seeking to make political capital out of our present 'war prosperity." por trayed in detail conditions as he viewed them in the United States when the war shall end. and assailed 1 the democratic policy as a policy which "means idle plants and impov erished workmen." - . At- Sprinfield and again here to-night Mr Hughes assailed the ad ministration for the enactment of the Adamson law. "What are real laws?" he asked. "Real laws are passed after inquiry with some understanding of the justice of the case, with some idea of what is involved and ought to be done. Sham laws must be passed under duress. I am opposed in the r interest of labor to government by holdup and I am for government by reason and fairness. .- Built on Sand, j "No thoughtful American can view our present economic conuiuuii wim f..if irrinm annrehension. We are un der . the-smhealthy stimulus of the European - war. Hopes are raised which cannot be fulfilled. Our pres. ent prosperity is built on sand. Onr exports have jumped to fabulous fig ures, because of the withdrawal of the production of the millions ot men aboard, who are engaged in fighting. Out trade is not determined by condi tions, but of an abnormal European nr.Flt - M "Munitions of war are but a frac tion of those suddenly expanded ex nort. EvervthinK wc uroduce. food stuffs, metals, manufactured articles of every sort, Europe puts tortn its hand to fill the void created by its extremity. The resulting employ ment of labor on . an unprecedented scale1 and increased purchasing power stimulates trade throughout tne coun trv. The intoxicated fancy may in dulge in happy dreams, dui ine soDr j. thought of the country is directed to tne oay.wncn mis .iiinui.ut no longer available. Sudden Jump of Exports. "Ynn cannot have oar exports sud- denly jump hundreds per cent in some cases, thousands per cent and ignore either the cause or the effect ot, its removal -. , ' ' . "Whit will be our condition when the war is ovetf In the first place a large amount ol labor employed at high wages will lose that employment The demand which it is now satisfy ing will cease. The mere stoppage of the manufacture of munitions will mean in itself a serious change ' in the opportunities of labor.' When the millions of men in the trenches return tn nroduction our exports of manifold products will fall otf tremendously, even as tney nave risen iremenaousiy "Think of the oercenuue of Ameri can labor now - profitably employed in making Europe's necessities created bv the existence of war. What will occur when - those . necessities no longer exist? The labor now devoted to that abnormal demand must com pete with the labor satisfying the nor mal in diminished purcnasing power. . No Need to Exaggerate. "I do not desire to exaggerate, Thcre is enough to give us serious thoughfwithout exaggeration. Amer ica with Europe at peace will not have the opportunity of America with Europe at war. And the difference will be most keenly felt. "We shall not simply lose oppor tunities for labor. We shall have the active competition resulting from the resumption ot foreign production. That production will be more skillful; more 'intelligent; better organized in every one of the foreign nations now . at war than it ever has been betore. Nations will not only seek to protect, so far as possible their economic in dependence, but they will seek our market. , It is fatutitious to suppose , that tne wastes ot tne war will in capacitate them for efficient produo uon. War Increases Efficiency, "Despite the losses of war, 1 believe that each of the belligerent powers Sas s vastly increased efficiency. The lessonsof war. of discipline, of oru- dent management of resources, of co operation in economic needs of mi proved processes, of methods of or. ganization will not be forgotten. War factories are. established with a view to being easily changed into peace factories. Thus, as'recently stated in a bulletin of the Chamber of Com merce of Paris, the large war factories in the neighborhood of Lyons, at. Etienne. Roanne and Annonay will be after the war converted into works for various manufacturers. Engineers and workmen now making explosives will be able with the same machinery to make products used in peaceful trade. "Powerful association, such as the syndicate, grouping together different societies in the coal, metal, dyeing and weaving trades have been formed. It is this commendable planning and foresight, of which this ft only an il lustration, which will make war fac tories not only in France, but in Ger many and England productive after the war ends. Commission Can't Legislate. . "It is manifest that we cannot meet the situation which will arise at the close of the war without a sensible use of the Drotectinar power of gov ernment. Our opponents have scouted a protective tariff. They offer a tariff commission, but taritt commissions do not legislate. It is congress that legislates. I believe in a tariff com mission as I want all the facts care fully gathered and analyzed. We wish a tariff adjustment that is fair and reasonable. If the American people desire the principle of a protective tariff applied to the protection of American pro ducts, the upbuilding of American in dustry and the securing of our proper economical independence, they must put in power, those who believe in the protective principles. The 'opposing party does not believe in it. , I hose who are seeking to make political capital out of our present war prosperity have little to say as to the conditions whicn prevailed less than two years ago. It was the day of soup houses and municipal relief: the day of reduced output and contracted en terprise.. We cannot afford a return of that day. But it will return if we do not wisely provide against it. The democratic policy has increased im ports only "to decrease revenue. It has given us a war revenue act in time of peace to make up for the deficit cre ated 'by its own policy. Its' policy means idle plants and impoverished workmen." I As to Mexico. With an emphasis that portrayed his earnestness, Mr. Hughes .told what he would do in Mexican matters if elected president It seems, he said, to me that tt is a very extravagant contention to say that the policy ot this administration "IT Humphreys' Seventy-seven For Grip, Influenza COLD: A tlcklltji la th nose- sltsat if-M ht th forvniDucr Um lira tin of ould. or tl my ba sseeu or thlnr or chllia (lows to tack Of aruvj a dew of "Bcrnitr-WTeo" at th Ant aprMran if say of tfaMt oondlUou will gt u dm rseoiu.

Hughes summed up his hope iot America a. the conclusion of his speech last night aa follows: "I want to see America prosper ous and contented with a just dis tribution of a prosperity well se cured by proper protective policies. "I want to see the American flag the symbol of righteousness, the symbol of dignity, of protected citi zenship. "And I want to see this nation girded with a desire to serve hu manity, but realizing that it can serve no one throughout the world unless it respects itself." has been a policy of peace. It seems to .me, on the other hand, that while I cannot tell what sort of a mess we shall be in next March, when I am asked to say what I will do if invested with executive responsibility, I can say the principles that should be rec ognized are applied. !n the first place, let it be understood that we do not meddle with things that ado not con cern the United States. (Applause.) "In the next place, let it be upder stood that we not only say that we will respect the rights of other na tions, great and small, but that we will in fact respect them, and, third, let it be understood in Mexico and every where else, that American lives, Amer ican property and American com merce will bejafeguarded by the gov ernment of the United States." Wants International Law. He added a word about world peace. "Wv want to extend the, facilities for the maintenance of peace," he said. "I want to see diplomatic inter course representing the very best talent of the United Stales. I want to see our name respected in every na: tion, particularly in Latirl America, iccause of the competence and train ing and the skill which we call to the aid of our diplomacy. I want to see jistrumenlalities for peace developed to a greater degree than ever before! opportunities for the judicial determi nation of internal controversies. 1 want to see councils and tribunals of conciliation with respect to interna tional controversies. I want to see frequent conferences of the powers, to the end that international law may be developed; that rules which should be superseded may have better relies in their place; that grievances may be discussed and rendered intelli gently. I desire to see the organiza tion of peace in a competent way; but we must, if we would have perma nent peace. How to Attain Security. "If we would have lasting security, we must maintain our own self respect, the dignity of American citi zenship and the honor of the Amer ican name throughout the world." (Applause.) In conclusion he said: "First, I want America prosperous and contented, with a just distribu tion of a prosperity well secured by, proper protective policies, "Second, 1 want to see the Amer ican flag the symbol of righteousness, the symbol of power, the-symbol of the dignity of protected citizenship. And, third, I want to see this nation girded with a desire to serve human ity, but realizing that it can serve no one throughout the world unless it respects itself." Showed Great Powers of - Hafrley-Davidson Motorcycles Victor H. Ross, the local motorcy cle man, had a novel float in the In dustrial parade during Ak-Sar-Ben. Two 1917 Harley-Davidson motorcy cles were hitched to a large float car rying twenty-one soldiers. The ma' chines doing the pulling carried four people, making a total of twenty-five people, wno, with the float and ma chines, weidhed 7.000 pounds, x The fact that .the parade was pro ceeding at a very slow rate made the feat difficult, but the new" Harley- Uavidson motors were eaual to the task. The theme of the float was "War and Peace. New Franklin Car Makes Road Record In a drive of approximately 1,000 miles in three' days, just prior to the announcement of the Series Nine trail, nn. the car hung up some rec ords for open-road driving that give a good idea of the ability of this latest The first day's run covered th! 350 miles between Syracuse and Boston in eleven hours and eighteen minutes-, or at an average speed ot thirty-one miles per hour. Between JNew yotk and Syracuse the Franklin car left sixty-sixth street and filtn avenue at !:07 in the morning, and Poughkeep sie, -seventy-ftye miles distant, was reached in two hours flat. The arrival at Albany showed an average speed of 39.1 miles an hour. This record beat a widely published running time of a well known racing car by twelve min utes. At Albany, the only stop of the trip was made to take on gasoline. The luu nines 10 uuca were cuvcicu 111 two hours and twenty-seven min utes. The distance of 150 miles be tween Albany and Syracuse was made in three hours and forty-six minutes without a stop, in spite of having to pass through towns having especially stringent speed laws, an average of 39.7 miles an hour was established. For the whole distance of 300 mites between New York and Syracuse, the elapsed Jime, including stops for meall and gasoline, was eight hours and seven minutes. On the basis of actual running time! seven hours and thirty-s;x minutes, the average speed was 39.4 miles per hour. Cadillac Makes New Iowa Cross State Record - Hal R. Wells of Des Moines, driv ing a fully equipped Cadillac touring car, established a new river-to-river record across Iowa Wednesday, when he covered the 331.2 miles in seven hours and forty-nine minutes.
