MUSCATINE JOURNAL AND NEWS-TRIBUNE THURSDAY, MAY 12 Hoover Upholds Tariff Policy Declares There Never Hasj Been Time When Protection Was More Necessary, Washington Vetoing the democratic tariff bill Wednesday, President Hoover declared himself for the time-honored republican principle of high protection and, in effect, took-up the gage of battle flung- at him by the opposition party. In the message of disapproval he termed the measure bad, both generally and specifically. He affirmed his belief in the equity of the present flexible provision which the president has control of tariff rate changes, and asserted that never in history did the United States need protection more than now. The Expected Result. The veto promptly stuck.

The republican nouse leader, Snell of New York, compelled a recorc. vote. The democrats, with a slim majority in that chamber, could not muster anything like the two- thirds needed to override, and the bill died. This was the expected result, anticipated from the time the bill was first planned as a democratic declaration for lower tariffs, and an indication of what the party would seek to do once it came into power. Besides giving to congress authority to pass on rate changes recommended by the tariff commission, the bill called for an international conference to lower world tariff walls and for trade agreements with individual nations under which reciprocal tar iff concessions would be made.
