Who Are You?
g
The Romance of
Your Name
BY
RUBY HASKINS ELLIS
A Grant,

THIS surname was taken from the
L old Saxon word grant, which meant
crooked or bowed; or else the French
grand, meaning great or valorous; or
perhaps the Irish grant Tor ciar),
which had the same meaning as the
Saxon grant. In the Irish the letter d
was sounded quickly and consequently
the spelling was finally changed to
grant.
The first person of great prominence
of this name was perhaps Richard
Grant. who was made archbishop Of
Canterbury In 1929.
One Of the first settlers in America
by the name Of Grant was Matthew.
who came from Devonshire, England.
in 1880. on the good ship Mary and
John. bringing with him his wife, Pris-
ella. and infant daughter, also named
Priscilla. On this ship there were 40
other emigrants seeking the New
world. and after voyage Of seventy
days they arrived at Nantucket.
Matthew Grant first settled in Dor
chester. but later removed to Windsor
Conn.,, where he became the first sur
vivor of the town and also served as
town clerk.
Gen. Ulysses Simpson Grant, famed
in Civil war days and as President of
the United States, was the eighth
uneal descendant of Matthew Grant.

Governors Of three States, one

They are Gov. ALI M. Landon

Davey of Ohio. =,
Harry L. Hopkins. FERA and
wPA administrator, charged that
Governor Landon'S balancing OF
that States budget was accom-
plished by giving no relief AID.
Assails Landon
THE State of Kansas has never
put UP a thin dime for unemploy-
ment relief" Hopkins said, land
so far as I know, the governor
has never made an effort to raise
any money. He has even been
after me for money to keep his
schools going.
THAT is the way he balances
his budget"
Hopkins said that counties,
municipalities and other political
subdivisions Of the State had pro
vided relief funds. but that the
State. as a State, had done moth
ing. FERA records show that local
subdivisions of the State had
raised $5.311,S15 for relief in 1884,
while FERA contributed $14,569,,

Believes In Whipping Post
Georgia, Hopkins said. had given
no relief aid for unemployableS in
that State for several months.
THE governor" he said, won't
do anything for them. He believes
in the whipping post. They got a
tough break"
He also said that Ohio had done
nothing for its unemployables, en-
phasizing that with Federal allot-
mentS to States for relief ending
this month, it is up to the States
to care for unemployableS.
