directly opposite to the one exercised
by Great Britain. That country taxes
the appetites of the people--that is to
say, Great Britain imposes stiff excise
and import duties on liquors, tobacco,
tea, coffee and sugar, making all of its
people get under the tax burden. In
this country the Democrats always
have exhibited horror of taxing the
poor mans breakfast sugar. We have
just thrown away billion dollars a
year in revenue in adopting the pro-
hibition amendment. If this country
in it's economic policy keeps on burden
ing ordinary business with increasing
income taxes and excess profit taxes
the business so overburGened will seeA
other countries.
"Now that the prohibitionists have
voted abolish the sale Of alcoholic
beverages, look to see the same peo-
pie within the next few years bring
about the abolition of the use of tea
and coffee and tobacco. They already
have started in on tobacco. Tea and
coffee will come next. Englan. gets as
much revenue as possible out Of it's
people appetites by taxing their indul-
gencies. We get the minimum and
transfer the tax burden to other bust
ness"

Says Leader i'm Speech

WEIMAR, March 20 (By The Asso-
ciated Press).--1n the National AS
sembly to-day Hugo Haase, the indie
pendent Socialist leader. made a vio-
lent attack upon Gustave Noske, the
Minister of Defence, for his methods
IN suppressing the recent strikes, the
shooting of Spartacans and other al
legged abuses of power, claiming that
the Defence Minister'S course consti-
tuted return to Imperialism.
Herr Haase also attacked Chancellor
Schiedemann for Understanding Sun
days demonstration in Berlin in fa-
vor of General LudendorfF, declaring
this showed that the present military
leaders of the nation were standing
solidly behind Ludendorff, supported
by the Conservatives and other parties
Of tho right, rs we'll as portion Of

Herr flansc, VINO was frequently In
tcrruptcd during his attack, declared

Ukraine would soon be able TO supply
Germany with raw materials and later
with food. He said, however, that the

sisted that his statements were true.

llaasc, charged the Independents with
being the originators of the Sparta
Gus Vaccinations and said the govern
ment would place before the Assembly
all the facts in connection with the
"murderous acts" Of the Spartacans.

Williams, a big, powerful man, said 10 oe exceedingly fond of fight. Will Hams wants to be confirmed for another term as comptroller. Weeks, a big bank CT, is opposing his nomination. The senator was testifying.
 He looked Williams squarely in the face, and then averting his eyes so that he gazed into the eyes of the chairman of the committee, declared Williams tenn peramentally unfitted to deal with men of business, that he had punished, through the power of his office, small bankers who differed with him on matters of poli- cy; that he, the witness. would not give names of those who had been injured by Williams because he was convinced that if re-appointed Williams would pun- ish him; that Williams. he believed. was in habit of requiring his examiners to photograph all promissory notes, especi- ally those held against senators and rep resentatives and newspaper men who, he knew. were his opponents.
 Mir Williams contented himself with a simple denial. but from the glare of his eye, the spectators reached the con- cluSion that he was not very much Tn love with the senatorial witnesses.
 MT. Williams, despite the pros and cons of the case, did secure, by what means note deposited in Washington bank by Norborne Robinson, correspondent Of the Buffalo Evening News, who. he be- lieved had been employed by local bank CTS to attack him through the press.

SEN ATOR NORRIS AKES
 ANOTHER DISCOVERY

Washington, February 22.-(SpeclaI) The ever suspicious Senator Norris has made another discovery. He thinks that two commissioned officers, captain and a second lieutenant. discovered an improvement over existing processes for the production of air nitrogen, and that through force, the war department de : prived them of their ingenuity, and gave it to the owners of the process now oper- ating at Sheffield.
 At any rate, that deduction is drawn from the following resolution which he introduced.
 tary affairs be instructed to make an it's findings of fact upon the following:
 First. What inducement, if any, did the war department offer to officers and enlisted men in Investigating and mak- ing improvements in the method of ex- tracting nitrogen from the air in the Uni ted States nitrate plant No. 1 at Shelf field, Ala?
 "Second. What improvement. If any, in such process was invented by Capt
 R. S. Tour and Second Lieut.. F. C. Binnal?
 Third. Was any such improvement dis covered by the said Captain Tour ana said Second Lieutenant Binnall patent able under the laws of the United States? Fourth. If any such process so dis covered was patentable, were the said Captain Tour and said Second Lieutenant Binnall required by any official of the war department, by coercion or otherwise against their will, to assign such patent able rights to the General Chemical company

REED MAKES ABLE
 SPEECH AGAINST JEACJTE

Washington, February 22-(Special. Senator Reed of Missouri, the ablest de later in Congress, flayed the proposed constitution of the league of nations today.
 There is no question but that Mir Reed selected his day with ''malico aforethought." It is wei for one to at tack a policy involving "entanglinf alliances" on the birthday of the ma, who warned against them. And Reed spoke of George Washington. The Father of His Country" indeed, wal
 the theme of Reed. Apd he handled we'll
 l. The address of Reed was the ables' yet delivered against the constitution of the league of nations. He attacked it on high grounds and constantly in voked the applause of the galleries. It was his opinion that the United States, member of the league under the con- stitution as outlined, would not only b. a party to petty politics in Europe, but would actually surrender it's national rights and it's inalienable rights to dc as it pleased and think as it pleased. Irrespective of the fact that many differ from Reed, there is no question
 but that his address was on highe
 and more dignified plane than that of Senator Poindexter, the Washingtonia q
 who opened the debate against the
 league. Mir Poindexter, in some re
 spects, was small" He featured his
 speech by charge that former Presi
 dent Taft was supporting the league be-
 cause he is paid to support it "by tn

 ganization fathered by an Englishman
 who has always stood for reunion be-
 tween the United States and the mother

WHEN MEN DISAGREE WHEN MEN DISAGREE

Washington, February 22.-(SpecialO When men fall out, news is often to be revealed. Some days ago, Representative Burnett of Alabama, proceeded in speech against the cruel punishment which court-martials had meted out to offenders, and in course of his speech, declared that Acting Judge Advocate Gen. Aral Ansell, to have tolerated such situation. even though he did protest, must have been weakling and a cow ard.
 This caused General Ansell to write Representative Burnett a letter in which he made denial of the charge. MT. Bur nett put the letter in the record Ano thus it was made public that in his ef- forts to secure mitigation of. sentences imposed for trivial offenses, General An sell had encountered the opposition of Secretary Baker, General Crowder ani General Pershing. They all stood for the verdicts imposed by court-martials with out revisions. according to Ansell
 very significant statement of Gen eral Ansell was that on one occasion having been blocked by superior officers in an effort to reach the President in order to save the life of a boy sentenced to death, he went to a member of Con- gress and asked him to see the President. This member. armed with the facts in the case. demanded to see the President. did see him. and secured an order from the chief executive which saved the life of the young man concerned.

"The answer to the problem of shoe wear lies in the use of Neolin Soles - SO says H. L. Evans of Steubenville, Ohio.

As my work takes me to all parts of the mill daily where have to walk over cinders, slag. etc, it is simply out of the question to buy anything else to take the place of Neolin Soles.
 You too-and your whole family-will find Neolin-soled shoes wear long and 1, so save money. You can get them in the styles you like at almost any good shoe store.
