THREE srIILroN FOR SODA POP.
South Carolina Also Spends Millions
for Candy.

A dispatch from Columbia says:
r The most remarkable increase in
business in South Carolina in the
past ten years is represented in the
mineral and soda water bottling es-
tablishments, says Commissioners B.
Harris in his annual report to the
General Assembly,
I "Ten years ago." says Mr.. Harris,
the output Of these establishments
was valued at 100000. In 1920
this had increased to approximately
$5,000,000. In the sub-normal year
of 1921 the total output of the bot
tling works OF the State was ,$3,11s,-.
484.
"Also, ten years ago, the value of
the output Of confectionery making
plants in the State was $4,000. In
1920 this had increased to $1,276,-
$50. In 1921 it was but $843,177.
Yet, even in this sub-normal year.
the total Of these two luxuries, taffy
candy and soda pop, was approx
mately $4,000,000, or two-thirds Tho
amount Of our State debt. And those
figures do not include soda w,tor
sold at fountains or French ca ldy

" ''If you don't believe in the dem-g

one woman at o recent meeting OF
Greenwood county citizens, when a.

suggestion that appropriations for
these agents be cut out as a means
Of reducing taxes. 43sfsGt t!.ay,}43
Another Citizen, writing in the
Greenwood index Joutnal, put the
matter aptly in the following words;
There is no denying that there is
now apparent a spirit Of greater WIZ
ingness to be helped BY cooperating
with the plans Of these agents than
has been heretofore. Or self-suffi-
cheney has departed and we are now
willing to get help II 1t is to be had.
They are not the solution of the
whole problem, but If they bring us
to the place where we will cooperate

thing.
"The idea of cutting out this work

old story Of killing the goose to get

declared the senator.
Senator Dillingham; was intro
duced as one of the men who has
been responsible for the large
amount of power which the small
State of Vermont has welded in
the United States Senate.
Great compliments have been
r"id 70 he vice-president OF the
United States to-day" said the
senator, and nothing has been said
about his chief asset, who sits by
my side, turning 10 Mrs. Coolidge
who graciously bowed her ac-
acknowledgements.
Senator Dillingham; went into
national affairs, depicting the
tangled situation Of the national
finances in which the Republican
administration TOOK over the gov
clnmcnt when Warren Harding be-
came president. He said that dur
ing the war period, 10 commissions
created by the Democratic admin
istration expended $2,723, 100000.
When the Republican administra-
ton came in, an attempt was i'm
mediately made to get at the bot
tom of the nations finances. At
that time there vas a net deficit
IN the government of 26 billions of
dollars, more than was expended to
run the entire government from
the Civil War to the World War.
Senator Dillingham; said that the
Republican administration has cut
down expenditures to about four
billion dollars a year, in spite of
the heavy interest OIL the national
debt. The care q wounded and
disabled soldiers costs the govern
ment $l,200.G00 a day. This is, Of
course, gladly spent. The national
debt has been reduced three billion
dollars during the IS months that
the Republicans have been in pow
Ell. In closing Senator Dillingham;
accused the Democrats of delaying
the passage of the tariff bill for
four months, when it should have
gone through in 30 days. He said
that this tariff has the lowest ad
valorem rates on the average that
the epublicans have ever passed.
His tribute to President Harding
brought applause: 81 have known

thinking, honest man. Warren
