Byrnes Exposes G. 0. P. Argument Washington, Sept. 25.?The Congressional Record appearing today contains a statement inserted by Representative Byrnes, comparing appropriations by the Republican and {Democratic administrations and commenting upon the president's statement that the treasury faced a deficit. The statement, which will be used by the Democratic national committee, in addjtion to the comparison of appropriations, declares: "The president in his message vetoing the bonus bill informed the country that if no additional appropria tions were authorized, the treasury faced a deficit for the year 1922, of $650,000,000. This statement confirms the estimates repeatedly made "by Democratic members of the appropriations committee familiar with the commitments of the government, and proves the-utter unreliability of the statements so-frequently issued "by Republican congressional leaders claiming great reduction in expenditures. With the measures now pending and certain of passage, providing additional appropriations, it is certain that the deficit which the president states now amounts to $650,000 000 will be increased to at least $850,000,000, the largest deficit ever incurred by the treasury in time of ... peace. , v , Expense* Not Balanced. "The president's statement annihilates the leaders of his party in don"""""" A A AAI oi*inor fViof gi ess wuu nave ueeix ucviaimt, VJUW.* the government has been balanced, and it is certain the government must continue to borrow to meet the ordinary expenses of the government. "The Democratic party has contended that the receipts and expenditures should be balanced by reducing expenditures, not by increasing taxafon. But if this congress in its extravagance was determined to authorize th^se huge expenditures it should have provided the revenue with which to meet the expenditures. In vetoing the bonus bill the president insisted that the congress not appropriate for other purposes, $650,000,000 more than the total receipts of the government. "While authorizing Jhese expenditures resulting in a treasury deficit, congress repealed the excess profits tax from which source $450,000,000 I a year was received; reduced the suntaxes on the higher incomes and repealed the taxes on many special interests. For instance the manufacturers tax upon chewing gum was one \' of the taxes absorbed by the manur | faeturer and not passed on the consumer. /Among those upon whom it was levied was the Wrigley Chewing * l Gum company. For the year 1920 the report of the commissioner of ini ternal revenue shows there was colicted irn Illinois . $5t>l,772 from anufacturers of chewing gum. rrigley is the one large manufactur in the state. In the last campaign 5 was a large contributor to the Reiblican campaign fund. It was a lendid investment for him. In the tee of a deficit in the treasury, the ingress repealed the tax upon chewg gpm. Of the total paid in Illinois is fair to assume Wrigley paid alost half a million dollars. The resal 9f this tax saved him that nount. It is not surprising that he cently announced that he was subribing $25,000 to the Republican mpaign fund: and would subscribe .other $25,000 if needed. He ought give more, and probably will. An Extra Session. ''The announcement is made that ngress will be called in extra sesDn immediately after the election to ,ss a bill granting a bonus or subsi to the shipowners, a bill which uld not be passed prior to the elecm. Consideration wa9 postponed - - ? J *? il.~i 4.-U * ^ j ?ajCgg?cause or me disclosure mat me au- , ^gHHinistration had announced a new, BBProUcy?Thai: the Constitution Fol*ow Flag?tt> the Three-mile Lim^ it only. That beyond that limit, the government through the United States shipping board would engage in the-whiskey business on ships flyin? the flag of the United States. Postponement was wise. The American people, regardless of their views on prohibition, will want to know of (Republican members of congress why they appropriated money for certain employees to arrest the citizen found within the three-mile limit with a quart of whiskey in his possession and at the same time appropriated money for the shipping board to enable other employees of rhe government to sell whiskey on ships of the United States shipping board, when beyond the three-mile limit, to those fortunate enough to enjoy the pleasures of European travel. "The announcement that the presi dent will probably call an extra session of congress immediately after the election indicates that he fears the result of the election. He evidently believes that the people have BONUS BILL KILLED IN SENATE. Lower Body Overrides President 1 Harding by Vote o? 259 to 54. Washington, Sept. 20.?The soldier bonus bill failed of enactment ] late today, the senate sustaining 1 President Harding's veto. Previously i the house had overriden the veto by < a large margin. % ' ] The senate roll call showed 44 j votes to 28 or two less than two- < thirds majority necessary to enact i the measure without the president's 1 approval. The veto in the house was ] 258 to 54 or 50 more than the re- j quired number.. s Although it was reported that a ] new bonus bill might be introduced ] tomorrow it was certain the bonus j bonus fight would not be renewed at ] least until the next session of con- < gress which will begin December 4. i Senator Smith, of South Carolina, voted to override the president while Senator Dial voted to sustain the veto. In the house vote, the South Caro- : 7 i lina delegation was recorded as follows: 3 To override veto: Byrnes, Mc- 1 Swain, paired in favor of overriding ( veto: Logan, Stevenson, Stoll, Ful- ] mer, paired to sustain veto: Dominick. The house vote on the first pas- { sage of the house March 23, was 333 to 70, or 4.75 to 1, as compared with 4.77 to 1 today. The senate vote to- ( day t mpared with 47 to 32 by which ( the measure was first passed August 1 31. > < West for the Bill. Most of the house vote to sustain < the veto was from eastern and south- ( ern states with westrn delegations al- ] most solidly for the bhl. There were two changes in the senate, Senator Cameron, Republican, A??iVrma whn voted for the bonus 1UVUMI *? ?v - ? J originally, voting to sustain the vote while Senator McKinley, Republican, 1 Illinois, who it was announced was 4 favorable to the bill on the first vote ' was paired against it. 1 There was only brief consideration of the measure today, and after cries ^ of "vote, vote" from the Republican ] ( side the roll call was ordered. 1 Swallows Money; Death Follows. 9 Columbia, Sept. 26.?John E. r Windham, Jr., two year old son of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Windham, of Lamar, died at the Columbia hospital at 1 o'clock yes;erday from pneu monia, thdught to have been induced . by the swallowing of a quarter last ( Friday afternoon. j The quarter was removed from the , child, but not in time to prevent the , aevetopment of a case of pneumonia , it was said last night. The little fel- , low was carried to Florence, but ] brought on here late Sunday night in an effort to save his life. The remains will be carried to Lamar this morning at 8 o'clock and they will be laid to rest there during the day. S. Carolinan Named as Rear Admiral. < Colombia, Sept. 22.?Word was received in Columbia today by the State that the United States senate had confirmed the nomination of Capt. George W. Williams as rear admiral of the line. Senator Harriss, of Georgia, had held up the appointment because he thought other men who ranked Capt. Williams were being neglected. Admiral Williams is a native of York. His mother, Mrs. Mary Williams, lives in Columbia. He has a distinguished record. At present he is chief^pf staff of the Atlantic fleet but is temporarily with Secretary Hughes's party in Brazil. 1^1 ,>( ^ ? (Miss Belle Skinner, an American woman, has adopted and is personI ally financing the rebuilding of a j French village. passage of the ship subsidy bill. With justification he believes that the next house with a Democratic majority will not pass a bill granting a bonus to the ship owners, and at the same time allow the government through the United States shipping board to continue in the whiskey business as ursed by Mr. Lasker. He, therefore, ) will call an extra sesison for consideration of the subsidy bill by the present congress after the election, an/fl before the consideration of the appropriation bills absorbs the attention of the congress. "But while the president is correct in believing that the subsidy bill will have more supporters in this congress than it will have in any future con- j gress, he can rest assured that if the j people entrust to the Democratic pari tv the control of the next house, an ! efficient and wisely led Democratic i majority will give to him in all mat; ters promising to promote the welfare j of the nation and ifs people, much greater cooperation than has been aciorded him by the present inefficient and leaderless Republican majority in the house of represer.ta GIVEN CHECK FOR $10,000.

Endearing Names Get Boys in Jail. > Greenwood, Sept. 25.?Calling two p-oung girls of this city "sugar" and !'honey" and inviting them to go to ride last night brought a mob on the iieels of five white boys in a battered lar and it took half the police department to avert trouble ofter' the boys were safely lodged in the city fail. The boys are being held in jail, charged with disorderly conduct. They are Rogers McFerrin, Earl Walker, Carl Thomas, Eugene Walkzr and Jesse Canfield.
