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. - -.

"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.' We ought to make wealth
bear its full share of the tax burdens,
and we ever wilL - Having this thought
in mind, and also thinking of the exces
sive cost of living, I doubt 1 the excess
profits tax for.war precisely- accom
plished the lend we seek in peace, though
we do not disagree about the worthy In
tent. 1 Its i operations have ' been disap
pointing, its, coats multiplied , d pyra
mided, and righteous changes and modi
fications ought to be sought, at an early
date, f I would gladly recommend a
change, but I am not yet prepared to
suggesT an equitable substitute, though
I should have no hesitancy In asking
congress to seek the earliest possible so
lution., Th reduced cost of government
Is already pledged and reduced appro
priation by congress is .already recorded.
we must 'not paralyse American pro
ductlon by .taxation at horns or destruc
tive competition from abroad,-' because
our mutual, interest in productivity has
made us what we are." -
