ers, something has to be done by
the Republican administration to
provide an "antidote." tentative
promises Of lower taxes are now
being tried. 1t is believed that
Postmaster General New had this
for his purpose when as the repre-
sentative of the administration at
the Sherman centennial at Mans
field, O., he said "the unexpected
may happen i'll the form of an ear
iY reduction of federal taxation, "
president Harding has since spok-
EN- in the same tenor.
+ While the Harding Republican
offer the sop of possible
tariff reduction their intentions
are generally understood to be a
rcductio nof the higher surfaces
for the relief Of the biggest tax
payers, although they might favor
some slight reduction in other, tax
IS in order to accomplish their
main purpose of relieving the big
taxpayers.
1t will be remembered that the
Harding administration in the last
congress attempted to reduce the
surtaXes from SIS to rs per cent,
but were beaten by a combination
OF Democrats and progressive Re-
IpublicaDs who fixed the maximum
surtax at so per cent. In the light
OF this history it is not expected
that the tentative promise of tax
reduction by the Harding spokes-
men will deceive many Of the great
body Of taxpayers.
1t is pointed out that these pseu-
do promises of tax reduction do
not extend TO tny contemplated
reduction of the tariff taxes.
1t is not thought that a reduc-
ton In income taxes would bane-
mt the average man or woman be-
cause it is the tariff that is bur
densome to the millions. Only
relatively small number pay in
come taxes but every one who eats,
wears clothes, lives in house or
uses any kind of utensiI or mate
rial must pay the toll collected by
the beneficiaries of the tariff.
The annual whole cost of the
Government is about S4,OOO,O00,-
600. That is just about the amounts
the Fordney-McCumber tariff
takes from the people. Any feas-
ible reduction in income taxes
could have comparatively small
number of taxpayers hardly more
than S2QO,000,000 a year, A reas-
enable decrease in tariff taxes

Rising Cost of Living Causing
Concern to Republican Lead
ers throughout Nation

WASHINGTON, June 20.-Re-
cent talk of tax reduction is con-
strued here as one of the devices
adopted by the Harding admins
tration to modify public resent
ment against the increasing cost of
living and at the same time to
take credit in advance for legis-
lation that neither the president
nor his congressional heutenants
can prevent. Democrats and west
erfi progressive Republicans, who
will control the next congress if
they choose to act in concert with
respect to economic and fiscal leg
islation, have plans for a consid-
cradle decrease of the tax burden.
Republican defeat in Chicago,
Baltimore, Hoboken and many 9TH
er towns East and West. Is now
being interpreted by the practical
politicians of the presidents house
hold as so many rebukes to his
administration and particularly as
protests against the exorbitant
prices Of sugar, clothing, building
materials and many other commodi-
ties protected" by the profiteers'
tariff. In New York, for exam
pie, plans for buildings to cost
many millions of dollars have been
abandoned because of the excessive
prices of materials upon which the
FOrdney-McCumber law has impos-
ed high protective" duties. SAM
tary pottery, which is big item
in modern hotels and office build
ings, is controlled by combine
twenty-one of whose officials and
members were recently convicted
of violating the Sherman antitrust
law. The Fordney-McCumber law
puts a tax of about 40 per cent
on all sanitary ware.
With the cost of living under
scrutiny and attack by millions Of
men and women, ell of them vot-

[TON-CLARK MEET
DRAWS BIG CROWDS
Revivalist at Central Baptist
Church Described as Man of
Magnetic Personality"

The meetings in progress at Cen
trail Baptist CHURCH are being well
attended. 1t is expected that the
congregations will grow from day to
day. DR.. Bolton, of Madison, was
present on Tuesday, and is now in
active charge of the meeting. His
sermons yesterday were well receiv-
ed and greatly enjoyed. Both morn
ing and evening the sermons were
devoted to the thought of revival
.ard at each service he used as his
text the words of the Psalmist,
"Wilt thou not revive US again that
the people may rejoice in Thee He
developed the idea of the coming
of a revival as something to be de-
sired and that desire must make it
self known through prayer The
prayer must grow out of the sense
of personal need and must look for
satisfaction in the Lord that will
produce Joy and rejoicing among
His children. References were made
to the great revivals that occurred
in Old and Ne " Testament times,
and these references strongly Illus
trated the conditions upon which a
revival may be experienced in our
times.
The speaker is a man of magnetic
personality, a devout student, pos
sessing the qualifications of most
effective evangelist. He is declared
to be a man who has the COURAGE
of his convictions. loves the truth,
but withal has, as his master passion
the winning Of the unsaved and the
''.4't,-.cr1-co oc his Masters king
dom.
The music in these services IS o.
highest order for such p time. Mr.
Clark, who is q trained leader OF
music and who has led in some OF
the recent great meetings in Geor.
gia, is meeting with fine response
from the Central congregation. The
/ senior and junior choirs are organ.
| lied and are falin@ in splend.dly
with their parts. During the meeting
special numbers VIII be given h1
the male quartctte aud other rVai-
cal features will make the services
enjoyable. Dr.. Milo Massey the pas
tor, is anxious to have all members
of the G Jrch remember the meet
ing.
The whole city is given an invita-
ton to the services in the hope hat
this meeting at the Central Baptist
church may prove a power Tor the
good Of the whole community.
