TAGGART FAVORS WAR TAX REPEAL Excess Profit Levy Hinders Business, He Points. Special to The Times. FORTVILLE, Ind., Sept. 23.—Advocat: ;ng the Joining of the United States In the League of Nations followed by the repeal of wartime legislation, Thomas Taggart, Democratic nominee for United States Senator, spoke here last night. He said, In part: “The armistice, ending the great World War; was signed Not. 11, 1918, nearly two years ago, and yet all our wartime legislation is still In force. “Although our troops have been withdrawn from the field, peace has not yet bVeu established. “Every other country allied with us is now on a peace footing with those with whom we fought exceptour country. “The Republicans are in control of both branches of Congress. “The obstructionists and reactionaries composing a small group of in the United States Senate have stood iu the way of all legislation looking to. ward putting our country upon a peacetrine basis. “This Igroup, though small, is the dominating force today in the Republican party. “It opposes every measure proposed by the Administration, not upon Its merits, but because of its opposition to the Administration, and regardless of the effect upon the people of our country. “ft failed and refused to make profiteering a punishable crime, although requested so to do by the Department of Justice. “In this they sHhply play politics and the profiteers, those who have fattened off the people*’ necessiti?k, are now found supporting the cabal's candidate for President. ALL P. S. BUSINESS SUFFERING, HE SAYS. “Nearly every business in America is suffering today from the lack of proper legislation to meet present conditions. "The excess profit tax should have been repealed after the armistice was signed. "This was a wartime measure and never intended to serve in time of peace and since the armistice was signed it has been a handicap and. menace to business enterprise. “It Is holding back the natural development and growth of business and the senatorial group of obstructionists and reactionaries failed and refused to repeal this law, although recommended to do so by the Administration. "Had Congress been dominated by for-ward-looking progressive Democrats and Republicans this handicap to business would have been removed long ago. “In fact, the Income tax laws should have been revised to meet present needs and conditions. “Relief through the enactment of law must come through Congress. “The President of the United-States cannot enact or promulgate laws. “He only possesses the privilege of recommending and the power to Teto. “The Republican politicians brag much about the constructive ability, and yet the Republican majority in Congress has enacted no constructive legislation end nothing for the relief of the business of our country. “What Is the position of our Republican party today on this matter? SAYS HARDING EVADES PRINCIPAL ISSUES. “!t. Harding is as uncertain on re--esiurnction measures as he is evasive on •the League of Nations issue. “He think* the excess profit tax in ■time of peace is bad, but he Is uncertain vbout its repeal and pretents no definite legislative plan In the event of its eppeaL •*On the other hand Mr. Cox Is a business man and knowing the needs of business has promised that the excess profit tax shall be repealed and has given a definite program for the raising of revenues by other means than the excess profit tax law. “If elected I shall help Governor Cos keep his promise to the people, and I shall look upon relief from .a business and not a political standpoint. “In fact, party politics ahali not Tni fluence my vote on any question where the welfare of my country Is concerned. “I am a business man and am more concerned In what is for the best interest rtf the business of the country than I am In party politics. “I ahali let my record in the Senate stand as my pledge for future conduct. “I shall Join no group of Senators whose object is to serve selfish purposes, and at all times I ahali deem it a pleasure and regard it my duty to serve the people of Indiana. “? hare nothing to say of my opponent. “His record Is made as well as mine. “Ail I ask you to do is to make your choice upon our public records regardless of past party affiliations. “My appeal to you is as a business man and citizen, and not as a political partisan.” Two Escape Death From ‘Shot' Fumes Special to The Times.

Special to The Tlmse. BLOOMINGTON, Ind., tjept. 23.—The constructive acts passed by the present national administration were enumerated by Mrs. Alice Foster McCulloch, Democratic women's State chairman, in an address here today before a rally of the Democratic women of Monroe County. Mrs. James Riggs, district chairman, made an address. A luncheon was served at noon. “The Democratic party is the party of ideals,” said Mrs. McCulloch, “and these ideals have been made realities. "I desire to call your atention to the record for progressive legislation passed by the present administration, in which the first four years of the Wilsonian Democracy stand out in history as the greatest period of constructive statesmanship of our republic.” “The first act of the Democratic Congress was to revise the tariff and put the necessities of life on the free list, and yet the Republican presidential candidate says the tariff may be an issue of this campaign.” MENTIONS PASSAGE OF INCOME TAX ACT. Mrs. McCulloch mentioned the passage of the income tax law, which she said placed the burden of taxation on those best able to pay and from whom taxes are most justly due. __ "The Federal farm loan act, which relieves the farmers of the Nation, who for years had been carrying a debt of more than six billions of dollars, was passed by the Democratic Congress," she said. “It passed the Smith-Lever agricultural extension act under which the vast knowledge acquired by the agricultural department in agriculture, horticulture, animal industry, bee culture is placed at the disposal of the American fanner.” The passage of the pood roads act and the appropriation of millions of dollars for the np-bullding of national roads also were cited as constructive measures of the Democratic administration. “The ruxal delivery system and the parcel post has been built up by the Democrats.” said Mrs. McCulloch. ESTABLISHED BUREAU FOB WOMEN. "It has established a woman in industry service, with a view to safeguarding the interests of women in industry; passed a workingman's compensation act. which protects 1.000,000 civilian employes, half of wbem are women: passed a Child Labor law, overcoming the constitutional difficulties to the passage of such a law by levying a ten per cent excise tax on all income of every Industry employing child labor; passed a Seaman's Act, which abolished a condition amounting to practically slavery of the men employed In the commerce of the world: passed Federal Banking Reserve laws which have made panics impossible.” Mrs. McCulloch closed her address by making an appeal to her audience to examine the splendid record of the Democratic party during the past eight years. “With its record are you not willing to yut your trust in its future?” she asked. “Governor Cox has said that the Dem ocratic platform is a promissory note and if he Is elected its promises will b fulfilled."

The fire spread rapidly to the dryer room, but did not reach the tank house and boiler room. Mr. Nolen said some of the metal sheeting might be used again In the construction of anew building, but that the wooden framework of that part of the building would be a total loss. NIGHT SHIFT AIDS FIREMEN. Tbirty-flve men are employed at the reduction plant, and of this number ten are on the night shift, and they assisted the firemen In fighting the flames. The tire was spectacular and could be seen for a long distance, the building being shaped somewhat after the style of building used as grain elevators. The boiler room and tank house will be ready <to resume work within two days, lut it will be weeks before the percolator and dryer room can resume work, although a crew of men is already busy cleaning up the wreckage. Nolen was unable to state If the loss was covered by insurance, but said the members of the board of sanitation knew about the Insurance Nolen said there were four motors in the burned building which furnished power for the conveyors and that only one of these was undnmaged and that the other three were included In tb# estimate he made of the Are loss as well as damage to other machinery and the building.

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1920.

WHITE CLAIMS VICTORY RESTS WITH 4 STATES (Continued From Page One.) George White, chairman of the Democratic national committee, on the other hand, claimed Oklahoma, Kentucky. North Carolina and Maryland would be Democratic, as usual. As to Missouri, he said: “We don't term Missouri doubtful, but the Democratic majority there may be cut down.” CONTEST IS APPARENT IN OLD “SOLID SOUTH.” Chairman White claimed 157 votes of the “solid South," while Hays conceded but 110. Chairman White listed the following thirteen States as “doubtful:” Ohio, Indiana, West Virginia. Illinois, Washington, Idaho, California, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Delaware and NortU Dakota. Chairman Hays claimed all of these States as positively Republican. Thus 189 electoral votes which the Democratic campaign chief considers doubtful are claimed outright by his Republican opponent. While not exactly conceding them to the Republicans, Chairman White indicated that the Democratic chances were not good in the following States: Kansas, Nebraska, Michigan. Wisconsin, Minnesota, lowa, Oregon, Wyoming. South Dakota, Connecticut, Maine, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Vermont. Those States have a total of 144 electoral votes. Chairman Hays was emphatic in asserting that New York will be Republican. WHITE SEES CHANGE IN NEW YORK FIGHT. Chairman White said the fight would be very close In that State. The Democratic chief declared that Governor Cox's past record and meal issue* hud spilt the Republicans In West Virginia, Illinois and Indiana, and thought the aplit would swing those States, possibly, in addition to Ohio, for the Democrats. The Republican campaign pilot reported that Ohio was positively going Republican and that the local l.isues In the adjacent States would not affect the national lsauo n the least. The Democratic national chairman said: "Primarily, the doubtful States in the presidential election this year are Ohio, Indiana and West Virginia, while Illinois. In the last two weeks, because of the Republican split there, has placed Itself in the doubtful list. "If we carry these four State*, I have no hesitancy in saying that Governor Cox will be elected President.” PAY’S LOCAL ISSUES WON'T AFFECT ELECTION. The Republican national chairman aatd: “As to Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, the local issues In those States among Republicans are not serious and will not even seriously affect the Siate elections, and they certainly will not Influence the national issue at all." Chairman Hays listed all the fonr State* called "doubtful" by Chairman White under those that were “certaiu” for the Republicans. Chairman YVhite said the West was quite keenly for the League of Nation*, while the East was apathetic. "Washington and Idaho are doubtful States, both being very strong for the League of Nations," said the Democratic chief. Chairman Hays put Washington and Idah? In his positively Republican list. “We propose to make an active tight to win California," said Chairman White. “The same forces that swung that State for Wilson in 1916 are operating now. "There 1* dissatisfaction with the Chicago Republican convention's presidential choice and Governor Cox has had an unprecedented reception there.” Chairman Hays Included California In his “positively republican'' list. CLAIMS NO CHANGE IN DEMOCRATIC STATES. "Thore Is no doubt,” Chairman White continued, "about the Democrats carrying New Mexico and Arizona, nor or Monuina, Nevada and Utah, which went Democratic in the 1916 election., "Colorado normally is Democratic. “My reports indicate we will carry it." * “New Mexico, Montana, Arizona, Utah and Colorado are going Republican," was Cuticura Soap AND OINTMENT Clear the Skin Soap.Ointment.TulctmiAte everywhere OrMmplas edrtreee X.Ml<ta.M.

Chairman Hays’ answer to his Democratic rival's claim. “Nevada probably will go Republican,*’ Hays added. “I have not enough reports on Kansas,” resumed Chairman White, “to indicate the trend there.” * Kansas was not specifically mentioned by Chairman Hays. “Nebraska looks Republican," said 1 Chairman YVhite, adding “large numbers of Germans live there.” Chairman Hays made no specific mention of Nebraska, but since he claimed "the whole of the United States would go Republican, with’ the possible exception of tenjjouthern States,” he obviously concurred in the Democratic chief's Judgment. / Chairman White said Democrats very likely would carry New Hampshire. * That State is included in Chairman Hays’ “positively Republican” list. MASSACHUSETTS LOOKS LIKE BATTLE GROUND. “There is a chance of winning Massachusetts,” continued White, “Hut many Democrats there are going to vote against the league, while many Republicans will not vote for It." “Positively Republican," was Mr. Hays' characterization olf Massachusetts. Mr. White Indicated that the balance of the New England States—Connecticut, Rhode Island, Y'ermant and Maine—would go Republican, while he admitted there was no hope of the Democrats taking Pennsylvania. "New Jersey la doubtful," Mr. White said. “New Jersey is positively Republican,'’ averred Mr. Hays. “The Democratic chairman said Michigan, YVlseonsin, Minnesota, lowa, Oregon nnd Wyoming might be regarded as Republican States. “In North Dakota," Mr. YY’hite added, “the nonpartisan organization will poll heaviest nnd no one knows how they will vote nationally, although adherents of the league there may give us victory.!' "Positively Republican," was Chairman Hays' annotation on the name of North Dakota. Chairman White said the “solid South" —Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Loulgianti. Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama. Florida, Georgia, South Carolina nnd North Carolina, Y’irglnla and Mary land with 157 of the total of 531 electoral votes, would be Democratic, as usual. Os these states Chairman Hayes conceded Texas. Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama. Florida. Georgia, South Carolina nnd Virginia to the Democrats The Republican chairman characterized as “uncertain" Oklahoma. Tennessee and North Carolina.
