"Washington. May 14. —If Congress
adopts Cue Haugen farm relief plan
"and it jets by the president—who, j
however, doesn’t Tlkje it—it wilj mean
higher food prices.
Spine Os the plain's friends have
denied this, or at any rate, they said,
the meresso will be trifling. .
for instances, take a 10-cent loaf
of bread. Only 2 cents' worth of
wheat goes into it. The baker’s
overhead and profit account for the
other ,8. cents. The. Haugen plan Will
increase the cost qfily of the 2 cents
worth of wheat, so the consumer
• won't be much, if any, affected.
That's the argument.
* » *
••Congressman Gilbert N, Haugen,
of lowa, punctures it.
As .the plan's author, he if any
body, ‘ ought to know haw"'it will
work. '
Congressman Black, of New York,
BNked him, point blank, the other
day. “Will your bill raise the price
of food?”
"There's no deqying it will add to ,
prices," was Haugen's answer.
The lowan did, ip<leed, say the con
siderations referred to above, would
apt as a brake on the advance, “But,
to be frank.” he conceded, “was as
sume the bill will raise the cost of
living."
• * •
Just how stiff the increase will be
Haugen admits he can't tell. That's
one of the things about a protective
tariff that it’s mighty hard to dope
out in advance, and a protective
tariff, in reverse.
. The manufacturer's protected by a
tariff. Labor's protected by immigra
tion restrictions.
The farmer’s protected by nothing
nt all. \
Long Winded Speakers.
Stanly News-Herald
The Statesville Landmark remarks
on the long address made by. the key
note speaker at the state democratic
convention lust week, and says that
long speeches are rarely ever listen
ed to through by modern audiences,
that the people prefer to get their In
formation through the priiitrtl page-
That's true. There is ■ nothing more
tiresome than a long, dry, nddress,
void of animation and personality on
the part of the speaker. It may con
tain fine thought well arranged, but
if it be long and poorly delivered,
nobody listens to it. The time has
come when speakers who expect to
rgnch, interest and influence men,
must make it snappy and short.
Twenty minutes to half an hour is
lon enough for any public speaker to
tdke up in an address, and even
t'ben, ho clkuiul have a message, amf
deliver -|t with earnestness a lit]
animation', if he expects his hearers
to listen. Long winded speakers will
soon be completely boycotted.
