Remember, when you vote for
the Democratic candidates this
year, your vote is an endorse
ment of all that party stands
for -Internationalism, imitation,
free trade, bureaucracy, extrya-
gance, inefficiency, utilization of
the government machinery for
partisan purposes, secret diplo-
macy, codling of bolshevism, en-
couragemeIt of socialism, and
high cost of living. Those are
the incidents of Democratic rule,
and if you vote for continuance
of that rule your vote will be in
terpreted as an endorsement of
all that goes with it.

SALES TAX is NOT ENOUGH
In Order to Raise a Billion and Half
in Two Years More Revenue
Must Be Found.

Washington, April 22.-The fight
against levying a sales tax to raise
part of the money for soldier relief
legislation was taken today to the
floor of the House.
Amid applause of the Democrats,
Representative Henry T. Rainey
Democrat, Illinois, charged that Re.
publicans were attempting to buy
the soldier vote with the promise OF
$l.25 a day bonus The applause
quickly shifted TO the other side
when Representative Pincher Re
publican, Kansas, retorted that the
Democratic espousal of retroactive
war profits tax was designed ITO
catch votes"
Meanwhile, the Republican mem
bers of the Ways and Means commit
tee had agreed tentatively on foul
forms Of taxes for raising S1,5OO,0OO,-
900 in the next two years. While
the sales tax was accepted by the
committeeman added opposition tt
it was said to have developed
though Republican leaders doubted
whether it would be eliminated as a
revenue getting scheme. The three
other levies tentatively accepted by
the committee were a tax on al
stock exchange transactions equal to
the amount of the brokers commits
