Accompanied by a running fire
of sharp debate ou the wool tariff
and its effect on clothing prices
and the woolen industry the var-
ious amendment* to the I'nder-
wood Wool Tariff Bill were pre-
sented in the Senate at the open-
ing of the early session today.
Senator Smoot denounced the
various attacks on the wool tariff I
as unjustified by facts. He said
that "Schedule K had been made,
the scapegoat," of the tariff ngi |
tat ion. Senator Martine of New
Jersey produced a circular show-
ing that the Provo woolen mills of
which Senaton Smoot is an officer,
had not been in operation for sev
oral years.
"If the Payne-Aldrieh woolen
tarift won't keep your mills rua-1
niiig. in heaven's name what do
you want?' asked Senator Mar-
tine.

The
Town
Knocker
Boost For Our Town?
Who, fie?
What's the use?
Nobody else is boosting.
Our town is a dead one. Our people
NEVER get together. They do not
know what it means, all to pull to-
gether. If our town had a live bunch
like they have in the city of Enter-
prise we'd a had several thousand
more people here now.
No sir, our town is sliding down "hill
faster and faster.
This chap is a knocker,
but he doesn't know it.
Saying the people of
our town never pull to-
gether, hurts the town
and hurts the man that
says it.
Our people DO get together; we ARE
together NOW. The Boosters of This
Town want us to get CLOSER together-
all together all the time.
Let's silence the KNOCKER by keep-
ing all together for Our Town!
