and promises of the national and state
platform.
This admonition he directed at both
the North Carolina and Tennessee leg

legislature by w. H. Williamson, presi-
dent of the States Rights Defense

Nashville. Tenn, Aug. 14.-Speaker
Seth M. Walker of the Tennessee house
of representatives today replied to the
telegram of President Wilson in which
was expressed the hope that the house
would concur in the senate's action on
the resolution ratifying the suffrage
amendments. Speaker Walker said:
president Woodrow Wilson, The White
House, Washington, ID. G.
.I have the pronounced honor to
acknowledge your wire of August 10.
I do not attempt to express the views
of other members of the lower house
of Tennessee, but speak for myself
alone, which on the Anthony amend
ment are contrary to yours. You were
too great to ask it, and I do not be-
lieve that men of Tennessee will sur
render honest convictions for political
expediency or harmony.
(Signed.) seth NJ WALKER"
Anti-ratification headquarters made
public today a telegram from r. Is.
Williamson, president of the States
Rights Defense League of North Caro-
lima, declaring that suffrage would be
defeated in that state. The message
"we are going to win IN spite of
pressure from the White House, from
Dayton, Ohio, and from the United
States senate and the secretary of the
navy. The will of the people of our
state must be the law. If THIS crime Is

MORE MILLIONAIRES
ONE RESULT OF WAR
Says Lawmaker, Who Ad-
yocates Taxing War
Wealth to Pay Sol
diers' Bonus

Washington.- Congressman Henry
t. Rainey shook the dry bones of the
house of representatives by turning
the searchlight onto the increased
number of millionaires as a result of
the war and the efforts of these indi-
viduals to escape further taxation
through direct tax on every pur-
chase.
Those who remained at home and
pursued their ordinary business avo-
cation made returns fabulous in
amounts, said Congressman Rainey,
who declared that as result of the
war $4,000 new millionaires were ere
ated. In 1914, he said, there were
$4,000 men whose incomes exceeded
$4,000 year, but during the war
these incomes had reached total of
$3,000,0o0,OOO more than during the
three pre-war years.
During this period, when the boys
We're at the front, the corporations of
this country made during the years
1917, 1918, 1919 and during the year
1920, which was really war year,
corporations of this country made,

and in their tax returns they admit
they made, $3,80O,0OO,0O0 more than
they did in the same number Of pre-
war years"
Regarding the proposal to pay a
bonus to soldiers by taxing sales, the
speaker said:
81 know you gentlemen; under
stand your methods You are gong
to put some cushions in this bill, but
you are going to yield to the demands
of Wall street You are going to
yield to the demands of the millionaire
