= President Harding was declared
Friday at the White House to be of
the opinion that tariff legislation
should be given precedence in the sem
ate over the soldiers bonus. Although
it was made clear that the president
had received no request from Republi-
can leaders in the senate for advice as
to which measure should be taken up
first, 1t is understood that the views of
both the chief executive and the sena-
torfal leaders coincide in this respect.
Under the present plans the tariff Will
be taken up in the senate next Thurs
day while the finance committee takes
up the bonus bill with the possibility
that it may make radical changes IN 1t
as it was passed by the house. When
the bonus measure has been reported
to the senate 1t will be taken up for
consideration, during lulls in the tariff
debate. The bonus bill is expected to
be ready for senate consideration in
about a fortnight. Benjamin G. Marsh,
managing director of the farmers ma
tional council, declared in a statement
Friday night that the tariff bill re-,
ported by the senate finance committee
was "the worst Of the many gold
bricks handed farmers by the present
administration. The whole scheme of
the tariff bill as reported to the
senate" he added, "is evidently to per-
nit highly protected manufacturers to
continue the same profiteering which
they carried on during the war What
ever the text Of the tariff bill it is clear
that the duties levied on manufactur-
ed products are on the American basis
cost Of production while those levied
on agricultural products are on the
basis of foreign cost Of production"

SOLDIER STILL UNBURTED
StatesviIIc Father Will Allow None to
Inter His Dead Son.

There is nation wideS interest in the
unusual announcement that an Iredell
county man, John Speaks, has refused
to accept $4,000 insurance which the
government has offered and is ready
to pay on the life Of his son, Thomas
Speaks, who was killed in overseas
service during the world war.
Another popularity about this citizen
is that he refuses to bury the body OF
his boy The remains Of Thomas
Speaks arrived in Statesville, N. c., in
August, 1921, and were Immediately
taken to the home Of his parents, near
Je. ngs postoffice!" about % miles
north of Statesville. In September
following, the writer made special
visit to the Speaks home and found the
casket of the dead soldier boy resting
on two chairs in the Best room in the
house.
Mr.. Speaks stated that he did not
want to bury his boy and would not do
so unless he was forced to do so by
law, adding that he meant to build a
little house nearby in which to keep
the body until his own death and then
he wanted the remains of his boy to
be placed beside his own. Latest re-
ports indicate that the young soldiers
body still rests undisturbed in the home
of his parents, eight months after its
arrival
Another popularity about Mr.. Speaks
is that while he reads his Bible regu-
larly and claims to be deeply religious,
still he is at variance with the churches
and will not attend a church or Sun
day school and will not permit a mem
Der of his family to attend public reli-
gious services of any kind.
Local authorities would have forced
Speaks to bury the body Of his son il

Ban Those Who Disobcy.

One important branch of the church,
the Amish Mennontes, insist literally
on the ban" that is the complete os-
tracism of members who have beer
suspended from the church. The "Old
Order Amish" sect lays emphasis on
simplicity in dress, and requires it's
members to faSten their clothes with
hooks and eyes instead Of buttons.
Most rigid of all the groups, however
is the Bruederhof. or Hutterian Breth-
ren, dating back to Jacob Huter, a
martyr OF the sixteenth century, who
insisted upon complete communal or
ganization of congregations. 1t was
this group that had to leave Russia
about the time. of our Civil war for
evolving n communism which antici-
pated that of the Soviet government in
many respects. Today they are settled
along the James river in South Dako-
tn, declining TO cast vote or hold Of

DUBLIN July 1s.-(By The As
ISOLATED Press .)-Talk in Dubha
today continues to center around
approaching operations on big
scale against the Republican ir-
regulars, but the Free State com
manders SO far have successfully
hidden their plans. When and
where the anticipated movement
will begin is still only matter OF
Mcclure.
# Meanwhile the national army
troops continue to reap scattered
successes. It Is officially announc-
ed that they now have captured
.Baltinglass, Tullow and Newton
barry. Including prisoners CAP
tured by Free State troops during
the recent fighting in Dublin, the
Nationals now hold approximately
1000 prisoners. The Mount JOY
and KiKlmainham prisoners are
said to be filled to capacity.
An unusual order issued by one
of the leaders Of the IrregularS, it
was reported today from Kilkenny
was found in the possession of a
prisoner when he was captured by
Free State soldiers. The docu-
ment it was said, instructs the re-
cipient to Commander labor, ,
work day and night and make all
roads impossible. The man who
disobeys must receive the extreme
penalty. You are at liberty to in
flct the same on anybody who dis
obeys your orders.
