HARDING WOULD EXCESS PROFWLAW Republican Candidate Declares f - That ; Production Must s Not :; Be Paralyzed by .Taxation. Marion, Ohio. July 31.- U. P.) The .excesa profits tax fixed during? the war, should be modified at an ' .early date. Warren O. Hardin. Re ; publican ; candidate, declared in . a speech-to a delegation of old friends : and supporter from two nearby Ohio counties today. , , Harding said he would gladly, recom , mend a change, tAit Is not yei prepared :lo 'suggest In equitable substitute. - Wealth, he continued, must bear its .full share of tax burdens, but American production must not be paralysed by ' taxation at home or destructive compe i'tltioji from abroad. -"'DEALS WITH DOMESTIC ISSCES ' His speech today was the first since j he accepted jUTS nomination -week ago,' J. , . .... .7X,, E. B. pappeller, Mansfield publisher, was spokesman for the delegation. - -. ,. cwuiwr uraing s ; sgeecn loaay 101 "I am pleased that you come not only as Republicans, but as neighbors ' and .friends. We -need to cultivate friendli ,ness and nelghborllness. I sometimes 'think in this busy workaday world we are neglecting those little acts of neleb borliness that-make life sweet and worth ..while. It . is well enough Jor one to strive to. get ahead in a nial rial sense, for through that ambition human prog ress Is wrought. To acquire and accu mulate honestly is most laudable, but we should not forget that -life's great est Joys Me in the social concourse of friends and neighbors. Out of such re- , latlons grow mutual respect, mutual sympathy and mutual- Interest, wlth out which life holds little of real en t'Joyment. t ' . ... . : INTERESTS ARE MUTUAL , - "The' especial thought in my mind today- Is the -interdependence and mutu ality of Interest of all our people: One could underwrite the good fortunes of t manxtna lr he could guarantee in pros- perlty that fraternity, that common in terest which is born of adversity. The pilgrim fathers laid their eternal founda tions of new world liberty m grien neces sity ; and the; same spirit, the same, con cern, the same mutuality followed every step in the development of the republic "The tendency to class consciousness is a product of developing fortunes, and is both a reflex of achievement and a menace to maintained -. progress. We must caution against ,-class distinction and class conflict at every step. fHere is the Middle West, where farming' Is free from tenantry! and holds to the normal way, and manufacturing Is mainly confined to plants offthat mod erate sise which indexes the surpassing fabric of American 'industry; we have a touch of Intimacy and ths closer under -standing whieh emphasise, the thought I have Jin mind. '.We cannot promote ag riculture alone, because the factory is necessary to the making of a market. We cannot foster the factory and .ignore, agriculture, because the-farm is our base of food supply. ; '- 1 -i.t :.' "J, can readily recall 40 cent wheat, ! flayeof from the f ields of Richland and Morrow. . 1 "I jrust no one will, misquote me as saying I believe In 40 cent wheat be cause I . have Indulged ly memory. iometirnes we are very 'unfair in nan dllng the utterances of public men. I re member when the senate was discussing the wartime guaranty on wheat, when we felt we ought -to give the- American farmer that assurance which would en courage fieedinff to guard against war famine, a Western 'senator" was arguing that wheat could not be raised for less than 12.50 per bushel."! 1 interrupted him to . say that I well recalled that Ohio iarmers, in pre-war a ays, naa rejoicea to get a dollar for their wheat, I was speaking of normal days, prior to the -wr. You will bear me witness that I spoke fairly and correctly. Yet there are those today who seek to convey that I said a dollar a -bushel is enough -for wheat today. I am not so annoyed at the silly untruth as I am distressed at the- affront to ordinary intelligence. WTIJfO STANDARDS CHAXGE . '"There is no living today or tomor row according to the standards of. yes terday. We collect more federal taxes in one- year than the entireswealth of the republic a centuxy--aroTronly a little while ago oof grievances about taxes were wholfy local, because a half cen tury of Republican control of the fed eral government held us free from dl- m i- a 1 . .1 . ,i ' 1 rect burdens. ' But the changed policy, the bemocratic drift to freedom of trade which is : International' rather than na tional, and mounting cost: of government and finally war burdens, turned federal taxation to a colossal burden. No one seriously complained while the national crisis hung over us. but we must work a readjustment for stabilized and-prosperous peace.'
