SEN. DIA14OPPOSES
SIX BILLION LEVY
Believes Bill Has Gone So Far, How.
ever, That It Cannot Be lIevised.
(Greenville Nows.)
Col. Nat. 13. Dial of Laurens, Son
Otor-olect from South Carolina, vas
a visitor to Greenville yesterday while
en route from Washington to his home.
lie has Just made a tri) to the capitol
to look after th<; procuring of his of
fices which he will occupy on March 4.
"I am heartily Opposed to the pro
posed tax levy of six billion dollars,"
he said yesterday, "but think the
imlatter has gonje so far that there is
little cliance of its being revised.
The tax will cetainly cripple industry
to a lar ge extent111 and I aimt not in
.favor of hrll'ening bi usi ness with a load

yea incend of one or two." lie
explr'essed hiimself as favoring the dis
tribution of tle debt in short. tiline
.oans winhhil would not Impair Iho
prosperity of the country, whIich
could be borne suilleiently w ithoti
resttraint on hi' part of our indust ries.
UAusinliess is above any 'partil 3' ieiis
and Congress shoul consider the
matter very ho roughly before it
enacts tie bill In its present form,
he stated. Ilowever, the bill has gone
so far and conjectures have been Imiade
so largelv Ol its prospectus that there
seems111 to be little hope of any revision
on the part of the main legislative
bodies.
Another thing that Senator Dial
Was very illich iierested inl during
his trip was .in the matter of dis
chlarging soldtiers froin tlie training

who can possibly be released be given
his discharge at once, for they are

CUT YOUR SHOE BILLS
WITH NEOLIN SOLES
"The answer to the problem of shoe
wear lies in the use of Ncolin Soles"
so says II. L. Evans of Steubenville,
Ohio.
"For five months," says Mr.Evans,"I
have been wearing the same pair of
Neolin-soled shoes at my work at the
La Ielle Iron Works and they are
good for two months more wear. As
my work takes me to all parts of the
mill daily where I have to walk over
cinders, slag, etc., it. is simply out of
the question to buy anything else to
take the place of Neolin Soles."
You too-and your whole famil 'will
find Neolin-soled shoes wear I g and
so save money. You can get t m in the
styles you like at almost an good shoe
store. And any repairtu will re-sole
your worn shoes with colin Soles
scientifically made to bz durable, com
fortable and waterproof. They are

Company, Akron, Ohio, who also make
