Hon. Nicholas Longworth, first con-
gressional district of Ohio Died April

GOOD old Nicki" That's what they
all call him yet-the Speaker who stood
before the House on the last day of the
last session and uttered prophecy-that
it might be his last appearance as
Speaker, but he was "abundantly sat-
isfied."
Only a short time before the full ro-
nance of Longworth's career had been
recalled to them by the twenty-fifth an
niversary celebration of his White House
marriage to Alice Roosevelt.
"TJOn Thaddo1c IT CarQUav Son

IT'D to per capitas, it Is found that
Washingtons total tax burden, con-
sidering special assessments as taxation,
of $62.85 Is far in excess Of that Of other
cities, which, in the order Of the
amount, are listed as follows: Mime
apolis, $55.15; Indianapolis, $53.19; St.
Louis, $49.67; Baltimore, $43.51; New
Orleans, S40.53, and Richmond, $39.11.
In Column Nv all revenues are con-

deducted subventions, grants, donations,

TOPEKA, May 21.-votes the Kan
sas delegation casts at the National
Democratic Convention for Franklin
D. Roosevelt will include that of Jouett
Shouse, Democratic Executive Commit
tee chairman, whatever his preference
may be.
Selection of shouse as delegate-at-
large by the State Convention this week
came after publication of reports
proved untrue-that State administra-
ton leaders would oppose him.
Reports had cited his associations
with the Raskob-Smith forces and their
reputed unfriendliness to the Roosevelt
candidacy
The administration, led by Gov.
Harry H. Woodring, months ago threw
its support to the New York executive
In accordance with an agreement
announced by Gov Woodring shortly
before the convention, Shouse was one
OF four delegates-at-large elected by
acclamation. Woodring was another
Eight In all were chosen. Each will
have one-haf vote. The delegation
has 20 votes.
Political observers have pointed out
the convention instructions do not
force the Kansans to back Roosevelt
to the end.
Instructions said delegates should
support Roosevelt until released by a
majority vote of the delegation"
Shouse, former Representative in
Congress, from Kansas, has been rec
commended by the Arrangements Com
mittee for permanent chairman of the
Chicago convention. He was chairman
of Kansas delegates to Democratic
national conventions of 1920 and 1924.
