He has told the farmer what agriculture needs
are lower taxes and higher prices for farm products
That is not news to the farmer.
1t is not news to the administration at Wash
ington which has labored increasingly in behalf Of
the interests of agriculture.
COMPARISON of prices of farm products n
- America, disheartening as they have been
with prices for similar products in other countries
of the world should convince anyone of the eHec-
dveness of the present Administrations efforts to
save the American farmer from the fate of the sg
cultural population of the rest of the world.
Franklin Roosevelt HAS FAILED to offer the
THINKING farmer anything on which to base
hope for realization of the improved conditions he
so glibly intimates would follow his election
He has SUCCEE DED in convincing The
THINKING FARMER that the Democratic can
didate has NO WORKABLE PROGRAM.
He is lost in the maze of conflicting agricultural
panaceas that have been advocated so long by var-
ous groups, and his childlike attempts to present
program that would catch the votes of all have &c.
suited In vague declaration of policy that resln
with insincerity and is so laden with inconsist-

be misled into accepting it as genuine.

Claims Indy Urged
Payment of $4,000

Springfield, Mass, June 3.-(P)-Ths
Springfield Union Friday quotes DR.
John F. Condor, the Jafsie of the
Lindbergh case, as having said in 6
recent interview he paid the futile
$4,000 ransom for the Lindbergh baby
against his better judgment and only
upon the insistence of Col. Charles A
Lindbergh.
The paper says that while at Beck
ct, Mass, on a recent vacation, Con-
don said he argued in favor of deal
ing with the kidnapers only on a
cash-on- delivery basis. Col. Lind
bergh, however, he is quoted as say
ing, insisted that, lest the kidnapers
be angered, the money be paid in adj
vance SO long as assurance was given
the baby would be subsequently re-
turned.
Much against my wishes regarding
the payment" DR.. Condor is quoted
as having said, Il entered the Bronx
cemetery that night and after John
(the only name by which DR.. Condor
knows the alleged representative OF
the kidnapers) had refused to pro-
duce the child struck a bargain fol-
$50, 900, returning $4,000 to Col. Lind
bergh. I came away feeling that
had performed duty of the highest
type"

Committee Approves
Garner Relief Bill

Washington, June 3.-R-T The
house ways and means committee
Friday favorably reported the ST.
800 DOC. 600 Garner relief program
Immediately thereafter, the Demo-
cratic leadership called the party
members to caucus to consider what
action to take on the measure.
Speaker Garner said he planned to
bring the measure up for considera-
ton in the house Tuesday, provided
the Democratic caucus approves.
Garner said the fact the senate rev.
enue bill included one-cent a gall
Ion tax on gasoline would not, in his
opinion, have any effect on the one

between the two taxes"

CANNED FOODS
FREE Of TAX
ON SALES
Exemption Decided Upon by
Ways-Means Committee;
News Burden Lifted

The manufacturers sales
tax provisions of the proposed
revenue bill were modified by
the House Ways and Means
Committee today to exempt
canned and smoked fish,
canned fruits, canned vege-
tables, and canned meats.
The committee also decided tc
exempt from the provisions Of the
communications tax all telegraph
telephone, and cable messages
which have to do with the dis
semination of news on which the
charges are paid by the newspa
pers and press associations to
which they are addressed.
Food Bill 'eUntOuched"
Committee members said they
had no intention Of putting a tax
on news dissemination, which they
believed would be against public
policy.
With the further exemption OF
food to the list already exempted
from the ~ per cent manufac
turers' tax, the committee believes
! it will dispell much Of the opposi
ton voiced in the House.
The food bill Of the average
man, it was said, will be almost
wholly untouched by the levy.
The new exemptions will de
crease the revenue expected from
the bill by about $12,000,000.
The House resumed debate on
the tax bill with leaders indi
eating they would make no ef
forts to push it to an early vote
G. o. p. Seeks Caucus
The Republican opponents Of
the bill were circulating a peti
ton requesting a party caucus
on the tax measure in the hope
Of strengthening their forces. A
secret poll Of the Republicans has
shown a strong majority for the
measure, according to leaders.
Representative Smell of New
York, Republican Floor Leader Of
the House, reported to President
Hoover today that there was a
growing sentiment in the House
for enactment Of the $1,096, ,000,'
900 tax bill as reported by the
committee.
The bill boosts income taxes
all along the line.
Shell likened the measure to
emergency legislation adopted in
connection with the reconstruc.
ton program. The budget must
be balanced, he noted, and most
of the House members are now
working to that end.

MIND
KEEN To LAST,
SAYS FRIEND
Dreaded Illness Might Make
Him Less Alert Mentally,
Says Jones
ROCHESTER, NY, March

ROCHESTER,, NY, March
Is (I.N.s.).-"George East
man played the game to the
last. By his own hand he
lived his life, and by his own
hand he ended it"
In tribute to the memory of
his chief, Lewis B. Jones, vice
president Of the Eastman
Kodak Company, today made
this statement.
He expressed the views, he
said, of "those of us who worked
for him for two score years" The
statement read:
Eastman had been i'll for
several years, during which pc
riOd to use his own expression,
borrowed from motion picture
parlance, he made a fade out
from active business.
Mentally Alert
During his illness his mind
remained keen, active. Men,
tally he was the George East.
man Of old. Physically he was
weak, very weak.
During the last few years
he had entirely dropped his kO.
dak activities, but what
strength he had and his still
alert mind were devoted in
tenSeIy to his broad charities.
"He always had expressed a
dread of a lingering illness.
His lifelong friend and busi-
ness associate, Walter Hubbell,
had passed away but a few
weeks ago after an illness that
confined him to his bed for
two or three years. This no
doubt preyed upon Mr.. East
mans mind.
Planned His Act
~And so, appare tly, he
planned carefully to end his
orderly life in an orderly way.
"A cOdicil was added to his
win. At noon on Monday he
laughed and jOked with the at
tOrney who had drawn the cOdi.
Gil and with the men from the
office who had come to witness
it.
"And then, a few minutes
later, when the room was empty,
he penned this note:
""TO my friends. My work is
done. Why wait? G. e.
'"TO those who know the or.
derIy working of his mind, his
passion for being useful, always
useful, his dread of an illness
that might make him mentally,
as well as physically inactive,
his act can be understood.
"a great man. At the end of
the chapter, he wrote his own
tfinis'."
