TARIFF BAD FOR HOOSIER FARMER, DEMOCRAT SAYS Evans Woollen Analyzes Effect Differently From Coolidge. Bu Times Special RUSHVILLE, Ind., Aug. 27. Evana Woollen, Democratic nominee for the Senate, spoke here on the Fordney-McCumber tariff act, advocating downward revision, with special reference to the things the farmer buys. Speaking of President Coolidge's defense of the act before the American Farm Bureau Federation, Mr. Woollen said: “The President claimed that the list of commodities on which no tariff was laid was made ‘especially to favor the farmer.’ He pointed out that the free list includes such essential commodities as farm machinery, barbed wire and fertilizer. / Not for Indianians "That is true, but it is also true that these commodities are not imported either by or for the Indiana firmer. He does not buy his machinery, barbed wire or fertilizer abroad. It makes no difference to him if they are on the free list. Putting them on the free list was a gesture, a pretense. "It does make a difference that there is a high tariff on the steel, from which the American manufacturer makes farm machinery. Because of that tariff the manufacturer has to pay more for his materials and the additional cost goes into the prices the farmer pays for plows, binders, drills, harrows and other equipment. "The farmer does not pay a tariff on machinery he does not import, but he does pay a tariff on the ma | terials in the machinery he buys from the American manufacturer. So with barbed wire. So with ferllizer, which, to be sure, is on the j ree list, but ammonia nitrate, potas- | lum compounds and sodium sul-| phate are not on the free list. The high tariff on these ingredients make j the cost of them greater and so make fertilizer cost more. "The President said that half in value of imported commodities on which a tariff is laid are farm products and that was intended to favor the farmer. Yes, to favor some farmers, notably the growers of sugar cane and sugar beets. „ Hard On Hoosiers "Where does the Indiana farmer come in? He comes in by having to Pay two cents a pound more for his sugar. Likewise the growers 'of figs, lemons, oranges, grapefruit, are favored by tariffs. Again the | Indiana farmer comes in by having | to Pay more for these products. “The President at Chicago did not | state all the facts necessary to a I

The Ad Man Says—"ln my eleven year*s of experience I have never had the opportunity of offering the public a sale that agreed with my ideas of honest-to-goodness merchandising so much as the Match Your Dollar sale. Writers will agree with me that it is no easy matter to show your enthusiasm in a thing of this kind with cold black and white newspaper type. I have always known that the Hub Furniture Cos. was selling its household furnishings at prices lower than elsewhere, and was truly surprised when I was authorized to advertise that a bona-fide reduction of one-fourth was to be allowed on the prevailing low prices. I hope I have been able to convey my enthusiasm over this sale to my readers of the Indianapolis Daily Times; and also I hope they have taken full advantage of the truly wonderful savings to be had. In closing I will say, “Come and see." ‘The Ad Man’

sound conclusion about the Ford-ney-McCumber tariff law as it affects agriculture. The farmer .gets little advantage and pays much. “He pays a tariff on his crockery, tinware and glassware; on his carpets and -ugs; 9n his paint, harness, buckles and ngils; on his dynamite and fertilizer. He pays a tariff on the iron, steel and aluminum that go into his equipment. He pays a tariff of* his qlothing, be it of cotton, wool or silk. "In a word, the tariff works against the Indiana farmer. It will •not work for him. It raises the prices of the things he buys. It does not raise the prices of the things he sells.” DEATH IS NECESSITY / Church Believes Black Angel Does Good Work.

earned, it is positively necessary that you die. Here is how the pastor of a local church figures it out: Beginning at the time of Christ with 300,000,000 people alive then, and figuring that the population doubles every fifty years, there would now be 412,316,860,416,000,000 persons inhabiting the globe. Considering the earth's surface, 56,000,000 square miles, of which 15,000,000 is not inhabitable, that would be a population of 10,307,921 to the square mile. GERMAN SAVINGS GROW Increase From $2 to $8 Per Capita in Year. Bu United Press BERLIN, Aug. 27.: —During the last two months, accounts in German savings banks have increased by $210,000,000, according to official statistics. Thereby the amount of savings per capita of the population reached

the sum of SB. as compared with $2 in January, 1925. Although the steady increase of accounts in German savings banks shows that the Germans are returning to the old proverbial thrift, it will still be a long up-hill climb before the pre-war ratio of SB4 per capita of the population is reached.

Our Customers Say— What our customers think of the Match Your Dollar sale can best be told by an Incident which happened last Monday. An elderly gentleman had Just purchased a gas range for $49.50. By paying! $12.50 down he had really only paid $37.00 for the stove. While talking to the credit man he said; “My ion just bought a gas range exactly like this at & Co.’s. He paid $52.50 for It. When I saw your ad I told my son I was going to the Hub and see If one could really save money. Os course, your original price was $3 lower than & Cos., but by paying $12.50 down I see my stove has cost me a great deal less than my son’s cost. I certainly am pleased with my purchase and with the saving I positively know I made In this case. “I will have some fun kidding my son when I get home. He thinks dad always gets stung.”
