RAPS OPPONENT
In MONDAY Talk at Solvay Plant
He Urges Men To Vote for
Truthful Candidates.

In his Monday address to the en-
ployes of the Solvay Process Co. s
plant, William b. Thompson spoke, in
part, as follows:
What is 1t that makes Detroit the
city wherein life is worth living for
you and me? What is II that attracts
the manufacturers SO that they win
come here and establish these great
temples of industry? The best adver-
tisement and the best attraction for
any city, outside, Of course, of the
advantages which nature gives It, lies
in the honest and economical conduct
of its municipal affairs. When a man.
ufacturer contemplates moving here
TO build his factory, or the working
man contemplates moving here TO es-
tablish his home, they ask: Is it a
we'll governed city? Are the city's
funds spent wisely? Are the taxes
low? Should not we, who live here,
and who expect to pass our days to
the end in this community, exercise a
similar curiosity about our municipal
affairs, to the end that we may select
officials who will spend our money
with frugality, and keep down the bur-
den OF taxes?
when | went into the city treas
urer's office last July. to pay my
taxes, l heard all about me the COM
plants and protests of poor men ano
women who had scraped and scratched
to get together the dollars with which
to pay the taxes on their humble
homes. | do not believe that any
public official has the right to say
that a million or more on the tax
budget does not amount to anything.
On the contrary, IT is the duty OF the
mayor TO urge economy upon the al
dermen and board OF estimates and
the various commissions, and to APP
point men on the various commissions
who will labor with him to reduce the
tax burden by asking for only such
appropriations as are absolutely neces-
sary.
ANY man who tells you that he will
tax only the wealthy and will not i'm
pose any tax upon you, is flying in
the face OF the law, and Is telling you
a bare-faced falsehood. And since we
must all pay taxes, If we own prop
erty. It behooves us to select officials
who will tell us the truth, and not men
who will seek to deceive us with false
and impossible promises"

Detroiter Declares.

Lawton T. Hemans, Democratic can

at noon, Thursday, from Allegan. He
was met at the Michigan Central sta

escorted to the Democratic state CEN

In Detroit tonight.

of the charge OF George p. Codd to
the effect that Hemans had cashed a
voucher for the expenses Of Junket
said by Codd to have been free, while
a member of the state legislature In
1903, Mr.. Hemans replied:
1T is true that | cashed that
voucher, but 1t was for legitimate ex-
penses. 1t was no free train that |
travelled on. Moreover, | went to a
hotel and paid for all my meals; |
didn't even go to any Of the free ban
quets.
THE chairman OF the committee
made out the voucher for me, as he
did for the others, and had 1t cashed
by the state treasurer. The voucher

trouble is that the sea lions have to
rush out Of a warm room directly into
the cold air before they get to the
water. What is needed is a house
with a subway out under the water.
Then Mr.. and Mrs. Sea Lion could
merely slip down cellar, swim out

it would cost approximately $279,
TO advance the work OF road building
under the bonding plan. IL the Board
of Commerce or Mr. Earle or anyone
else can refute those figures, let them
do so through the press. That Is the
only possible ground for discussion
and my side of the argument has been
clearly stated. / am satisfied that my

But, getting down to the export

exporters don't do as we'll in Europe

two categories, exclusive and compel

be typewriters, sewing machines and
other American.Enade articles which
find no competition In Europe. In
the competitive class are automobiles,
tools, etc. Now, 1t is not because of

export goods don't sell as we'll as

exporters are themselves TO blame.
The American manufacturers, as

He plugged up the keyhole. Then
he took a great quantity OF rags and
