MARION. o, July 3i--In the
opening speech of his front porch
rampaign senator Harding told
neleCation from Richland county
Ohio. today that the greatest use
fuiness OF the nation demanded
leyeiinC OF class and sectional bar
Piers and a realization of The IN
terdepondencc and mutually OF IN
scrests Of all our people"
The great war, he said. had helped
toward such a realization, though
there were many ways bv which
In peace time the rule Of com
mlngling friendship" and equal op-
portunity could be encouraged.
Closer cooperation in Industry ana
complete assimilation of the foreign
born, he suggested. as pointing the
way to a fuller national accord.
Wants Tax Reforms.

taxation he expressed doubt whothor

I'VE ought 10 make wealth bear
its fun share OF taxation" he said.
"and we never will Having ths
thought In mind, and also thinking
of the excessive cost of living, !

only as republicans. but as nelgn-
lbors and friends. We need to Guilt

i sometimes think In this busy
workaday world we are neglectlng
those little acts OF neighborliness
that make life sweet and worth

that iife's greatest joys lie In the

Interests Mutual.
1.-THE especial thought In my m nd
today Is the interdependence and
