DIAL OPPOSES
TAX ON CHECKS
BY Hugh W. Roberts.

Washington, Jan. 27.-The suggcs.
tion of the secretary of the treasury
that if soldiers bonus is voted it
will necessitate the enactment Of stat
utes requiring stamps for bank
checks drew a vigorous protest from
Senator n. B. Dial of South Caro-
lima today.
Senator Dial made the point that
the tax would cause the withdrawal
of money from circulation and to a
great extent retard business in its eff
suggest boarding with attendant dan
ger of permanent loss of money and
would impose an unwarranted burden
on the small depositor of the country
What the country needs is conf
dence in the future" Senator Dial
said. "Such tax as is suggested would
cause irritation and disgust, more
costly to the government than the
sum to be derived from its operation >
The South Carolina senator, in
course of his remarks, declared the
prosperous to be erroneous, and added
that in South Carolina, probably
throughout the South, banks had lost
money during the last two years.
