er of the House of Representatives.
pictured national prosperity and
praised legislative end executive eo-
compllehmeuts of his party. as he
viewed them. in a recent address do-
livered at Worcester. Meet, at a
Republican outing in honor of United
States Senator William M. Butler. of
Massachusetts. The following is the
test of Representative Tilson'e ad-
dress:

“Massachusetts is an industrial
state. but its industries are quite ver-
ied. In fact. no state in the union
has more different klnds'of industry
than this commonwealth. This in-
cludes the industries of farming.
dalrying and ell other work by which
articles for use are produced. In
other words. Massachusetts is a
great producing stale. and in addi-
tin has a commercial trade of no
mean proportions. In spite of a few
weak spots business is generally
good. and the country. taken as a
whole, is prosperous. In short, no
state in the union is more interest-
ed in a. continuation of the general
prosperity that now pervades this
country than is your own fair com-
monweelth.

Idkons Government to Business"

“If a. large private enterprise had
been conducted with notable success
for a. period of five or six years and
the business were not only in bet-
ter condition than a year ago, but

 

present management took charge. no
sensible stockholder in that enter-
prise would cast his vote for a
change ofmansgement. The federal
government is in many respects like
a. large buslnc- enterprise. and
every individual citizen has “at east.
one share of stock in the bus ess.
It is the duty of the voter to say
whether a portion of the directors
shall be changed next November.
and also to determine who shall take
their places. Viewing the national
government. then.'ss a great busi-
ness enterprise. let us see what the
record of the managipg directors
for the last five years has been.

"All theiils‘hav ‘ not yet, been
taken out of life. any ve‘ry griev-
one once remain. but let us compare
the situation as it is novith what
it was when the Republican party
came into control. You will recall
thetin the famous speech of Daniel
Webster in reply to Kayne he used
the figure of the storm-tossed marin-
er taking advantage of the first re-
sppeering sun to take hii hearings
in order to determine his present
position. and how far the ship had
been carried from its true course.
Upon the same principle let us
back for a. period of evlittle more
than five years in order to form the
proper background‘for what has
been accomplished. .

“On March 4. 1921. the Republican
party came back into full power
after having been absent from the
helm of government for eight long
years. After the world wide tempest
of the great War it is well to make
a brief survey of the conditions the
Republican party, found when it
came back into power in 1921. Of
course. our international effalrs
were in e. deplorable condition. Al-
though hastilities had ceased more
than two years previously we were
still- technically at wer with the
central powers. Our relations with
other countries were strained and
precarious.

Growth of Debt Oiled

Our international indebtdnoee had
grown from less than a billion to
more than twenty-five billions. a
considerable portion of which is now
known to have been wasted by reck-
leaness and estrsvegence in the
conduct of the war. The annual in-
terest charge had grown from
twenty-three millions to more than
a billion dollars. Eleven. billion
dollars had been loaned to foreign
countries. and no provision bed been
made for-its repayment. A stagger-
ing-sumo! money amounting ..to
more then three billion‘doliers had
been spent for e merchant marine

The railroads were in a thorough-

their ostrevegentvmenegelnsnt and
