REVENUE PROGRAM 1 CONSIDERED TODAY;

i DECIDE PREFERENCE

(By Associated Press)

.'WASHINGTON, March 14. Formulation of a definite program for tariff

aqd internal revenue legislation con

fronted Republican members of the senate finance committee and the house ways and means committee today on meeting with Secretary of the

Treasury Mellon to draft detailed rec

ommendatlons to be submitted to Pres

ident Harding. Whether enactment of a stop-gap emergency tariff, 'measure should be given precedence over revenue legis

lation, was one of the questions to be decided. Although the Republican members of both committees were known to hold divergent views on this point, the drift of sentiment appeared tot favor an attempt to put through as

speedily as possible after convening

congress in April a new emergency tariff measure for the protection of

agricultural interests. Senator Penrose, chairman of the finance com

mittee, has expressed the opinion that such a measure could be passed in short time if more closely limited in

its schedules than was the Fordney

bill vetoed by former President Wilson. Witha definite agreement reached on the program to be followed, both

senate and house committees planned to begin work probably this week on the fiscal legislation for the April session, the latter undertaking the draft

of the first bill to be introduced immediately after the convening of congress.

Enactment of internal revenue tax legislation ahead of tariff revision was advocated in a statement today by

Senator Watson, of Indiana, a Republican member of the senate finance

committee. .He also declared for re

peal of the excess profit taxes and the

righer surtaxes and substitution of "a

moderate sales tax." Urges Budget Laws.

A budget law and arrangements for

payment, by the allies of a denite

amount of their debt each year also

were urged by the senator. "The busi

itess world expects immediate relief

from the great burden of taxation now imposed upon it," said Senator Watton, "and it is the first duty of the Republican party to meet this expectation." Senator Watson said it' was unwise to attempt to pass a temporary tariff measure based on the Payne-Aldrich or the Dingley or the McKinley law. "None of them Is applicable to the exisng situation," he said, "and to attempt to make any of them so would be, to enter upon the enactment of a complete tariff law on the rioor of the senate practically without previous consideration by any committee.

EARLHAM MUSICIANS GIVE CLUR RECITAL

Samuel B. Garton, tenor: Miss Grace

Nicholson, pianist, and Miss Wilma

Hall, violinist, of the Earlham music faculty, assisted by Miss Mary Carman, accompanist, gave a short recital at the Country club Sunday afternoon

before an audience of the members of

the club who received the musicians

with enthusiasm, each number being followed by a recall, although none was responded to. Cyril Pitts, also on the program, was unable to be

present on account of illness. Mr. Garton, head of the vocal department at Earlham, who has appeared only infrequently in recitals

in town, thi3 being the first oppor

tunity many of those present had had of hearing him in solo, made a fine

impression in the presentation of a

group of lyrics which he gave, each number being followed by prolonged

applause. Mr. Garton s voice, a rich

vibrant and powerful tenor of unusual

flexibility and range, was used with consummate skill, and the reception given was not only a testimonial to the quality of his tone, but to the

manner in which the latter was

handled. Miss Nicholson, in two numbers

Schumann's "Whims" and Liszt's

"Dance of the Gnomes," showed her

self possessed of delicacy of musical

perception and a facile technique, her

interpretation of the Liszt number be

ing especially interesting and effec

tive.

Miss Hall delighted her hearers

with her violin appearances, her con

fident handling of her instrument.

breath of tone and sparkling technical qualities being dominant. Miss Carman, who accompanied

Mr. Garton and Miss Hall, is one of the younger musicians of the city, known as an accomplished accompan

ist. The recital Sunday afternoon was an innovation at the Country club and

was such a success it will be followed

by. others, it was stated.

DISMISS LENNARD ON LIQUOR CHARGE ON STATE'S MOTION After completion of the cross examination of Robert S. Peele, of Centervllle, prosecuting witness in the trial of John I. Lennard, charged with the violation of the state liquor law, Prosecutor Paul Beckett filed a motion to dismiss the defendant. Judge Bond ruled in favor of the defendant and dismissed the case on the

motion of the prosecutor.

Testimony offered by Peele was of such character that the state deemed it insufficient for a conviction. Cross examination by Attorney Holmes for the defense brought out the fact that Peele had been convicted of larceny and sentenced to serve a term of from one to 14 years from Randolph county. It was further stated by Peele that he had been arrested about 25 times in the past 15 years. Attorney Holmes questioned Peele as to his business. He answered that he didn't "do much of anything but drink whisky when he could get it." Peele testified on examination by the state that he had bought a case of whisky from John I. Lennard sometime in June or July, and that he had paid from $125 to $150 for the case. Peele was asked how he knew that it was in June or July. "In warm months I drove around chasing whisky and went on parties," Peele stated. "How much time have you spent drinking whisky?" Attorney Holes asked. "Oh, about half and half," answered Peele. Every juryman was questioned repeatedly as to his understanding of the law that a man need not take the stand in his own defense, and that he was presumed innocent until proved guilty by the state. The jury was composed of Clarence Boren, of Fountain City; Foster Scudder. of Cambridge City, Fred Bond, of Cambridge City; Charles Weadic-k, of Webster; John Clevenger, Center

I township; Kerney Cdfield, New Gar

den township; Rufus Rapier, of Richmond; Charles Haisley, of Richmond; Frank Reynolds, of Williamsburg; Rodney Foulke, of Richmond; and Earl Dynes, of Center township.

Retailers are Chary of "Shelf Clinkers"

T ETAILERS will be cautious buyers for some time to come. They have had to take inventory losses and they know that

"shelf dingers'

are not good collateral at the bank.

They are changing prices as the market changes as the advertising in this newspaper shows. Th manufacturer or jobber who sells our storekeepers new goods will have to demonstrate that his brand is a sure seller. And that means it must be something the public wants, something right in quality, right in price and, above all else, properly advertised. The salesman who will write the orders is the one who can say to the retailer: "We are advertising these goods in the newspapers of your city.

We are telling all your possible customers about them. We are making a market, not a thousand miles away, but right here at your doorstep." The retailer will' buy newspaper-advertised goods, because he knows they will move and give him his normal profit. This is the time for wise manufacturers and jobbers to help themselves and their dealers by concentrating their advertising in the daily newspapers. The quick way to "selling the dealer" is to sell goods for the dealer.
