is an actual fact that, in one year,
the average farm woman carries
from 80 to 40 tons of water and
walks approximately 125 miles!

BORAH BACKS REICH
ON ARMS EQUALITY
Slow Progress Blamed on Suspicion
in Letter to German
Paper.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
COLOGNE, Germany, October az
Senator william Z. Borah. in letter
received by the Cologne Gazette today,
defended Germany's demands for arms
equality.
The Idaho Senator said he believed
1t dependent upon other world powers.
by effecting real disarmament, to turn
Germany's demands into welfare in
stead of havoc" He appealed to other
governments to observe the provisions
of the Versailles treaty and denounced
what he termed their violations of that
treaty by steadily increasing arma-
ments.
"The present time of world distress
Is suited best to settle amicably all
unsolved postwar problems" he de-
clared
Senator Borah closed his appeal in
behalf Of Germany by ascribing the
SLOW progress Of disarmament to lack
of tolerance and suspicion among ma
tions which he said were doubling each
others honesty Of aims.
Germany withdrew from the Dis
armament Conference when it issued
its public memorandum Of August 20
demanding arms equality. Its demand
was that nations reduce armaments to
the status imposed upon Germany by
the Versailles treaty.
Since then Chancellor Franz Won
Papen has stated that Germany will
not re-enter the conference unless this
fundamental demand Is accepted. He
has insisted that q double standard"
cannot be maintained.

ILLINOIS INCOME TAX
LAW IS RULED VOID
Legislation Passed at Special Ses-
sion Unconstitutional, Su-
preme Court Holds.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated PreSs.
SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, October a.
The Illinois State income tax law was
declared unconstitutional by the Su-
preme Court today in affirming decision
of the Sangamon County Circuit Court.
Passed by a special session Of the
1892 Legislature the new State income
tax act was enjoined quickly when
Judge Jesse r. Brown declared the act
unconstitutional.
It was argued the act deprived per-
sons of property without due process
of law, delegated unconstitutional legS-
lative and judicial powers to the De-
nartment of Finance and failed to pro-
vide adequate opportunity for hearings
of objectors.
Terms Of the act provided for q grad
uated tax ranging from / per cent on
incomes of $1,000 to 6 per cent on In
comes over $4,000 with exemptions for
dependents.
Justice Warren Orr Of Carthage
wrote the courts opinion. ''The word
property as used in our Constitution. +"
he wrote, includes income, and income
Is property. Therefore, 1t necessarily
follows that under the constitution OF
the State all taxes must be levied on
property by valuation so that every
person and corporation shall pay
tax in proportion to the valuation OF
his or their property"
Pointing to the fact that the income
tax provides a graduated scale, the
opinion said graduation was not valua-
tion, and was not uniform" - re-

REPUBLICANS SEE
INCREASED HOPE
IN Indiana RACE
Democrats Still Claim They
Will Garry State by
10000, However.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN,
Staff Correspondent of The Star.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, October 22.-
The preponderance of opinion in
Hoosierdom is that Roosevelt will carry
the State. The fight, however, is by
no means over, Looking back over the
last four weeks, Republican leaders say
that the G. o. P. has come forward
with rush. They insist that President
Hoover and the Republican ticket has
$3.50 chance of victory. A month
ago, they admit, it looked as though
the Republicans were sunk.
Democrats look at the situation very
differently. They say the Republicans
not only are sunk today, but will remain
beneath the surface on election day and
thereafter. Some Of them are talking
about carrying Indiana by 100000 or
more. The betting odds. they point out,
stand at 2 to 1 and even have been
boosted to 3 to l since Roosevelt S
visit to Indianapolis the other day.
Never were the Democrats more conf
dent-and that is saying lot.
Republicans Doubt Figures.
The visit of Gov. Roosevelt to this
State, was. the Democrats say. huge
success, just the added flip which was
needed to make a big majority sure.
Never before was there such an out
pouring of citizens for a political gath
er.ng as that when Roosevelt spoke
here It made the Al Smith reception
in indianapolis four years ago look
small, persons who were present at both
meetings say. On the other hand. there
are carping Republican critics who are
confident that instead Of the 100000
persons claimed to have jammed the
circle in the downtown area where Gov.
Roosevelt spoke there were not to eX-
ceed 10000 or 10000. Crowds do not
always mem votes. but they indicate a
great interest in the candidates.
To offset this invasion of Indiana
by Gov. Roosevelt. the Republican lead
ers are strongly urging President Hoover
to come to Indianapolis to deliver
speech before the campaign closes
They say that the President may do
this either on his way to California, or
il he determines not to make the swing
across the continent. that he would be
wise to make special trip to Indian
apolis and then continue on to Spring
field. ILL.,, to deliver a final message
to the great States of the Middle West
before election day.
Indiana People Sore.
The people of Indiana have been
exceedingly sore. For months they
took it out in criticism of President
Hoover and his administration. This
has meant an uphill fight for the
G. o. P. The Republican leaders have
labored for weeks and months to
change this feeling of resentment
against the President. Senator Jim"
Watson, the dominating figure in Re-
publican politics in Indiana today. and
himself a candidate for reelection,
early made up his mind that the party
in this State must sink or swim with
the national ticket. His effort, and that
of all the Republican leaders, has been
to build up Hoover sentiment, and to
so arouse the Republican workers that
victory may finally be possible. They
