 "Talk, Darn Ya Talk" has be- come Fred Aliens theme song on his Town Hall program heard every Wednesday at Q D. m. over the NBC-WEAF network. The new words to the song have been inspired by Palliative Tom, the In- dian Mynah bird that belied its name last week and absolutely re- fused to talk when questioned by Fred Allen. Fred was slightly em- barrassed when the bird remained silent after he had promised that Tom, who is supposed to have Q vocabulary of 76 words, would dis cuss the weather, radio comics and Mae West. Fred has decided to give the bird another chance on q future broadcast and will keep up this procedure until the bird makes good. He will be assisted by Port land Hoffa and the Mighty Allen Art players.

Hal Kemp, Paul whitsman or Gene ooldkrette of the years around 1927, 1928. A comparison between the orchestral arrange ments of that time and of the soc called modern arrangements of to- day might bring out some rather interesting items. As Q matter of fact, some of the sterile and "swoony" stun that Is being offered ct the present time under the guise of swing music" would not sound so well. Continuing along that vein of thought 1t might be remembered that Hal Kemp was interviewed recently and stated that he disliked the word jazz" He contended that 1t went out of style with the introduction of smoother dance arrangements and especially with the introduction of lyrics that are of Q more subtle kind. Perhaps the lyrics are smoother but every once in Q while Q down-and-around number gets into the air and it's popularity Is unavoidable,

Landon's Reply ON Schools
G. O. P. Nominee Says CLosings Denied Education
to None, but Was Step in Consolidation
and I'm brovemenf.

constitution of Kansas makes each
school district a pure democracy,
practically independent of the State
government.
Citizens of Each District
Have Right to Determine Cost.
1t is exclusively the business Of
the citizens of each school district
to determine how much they shall
tax themselves to provide educa-
tional opportunities for their chill
dren. Through their respective
school boards, the funds are allot-
ted for the payment of teachers
salaries and other expenses.
School teachers salaries were re-
duced in Kansas during the depres-
sion. So were they in other States.
So, for that matter, were wages
and salaries of every sort. Burden
of drought and depression made it
impossible for an agricultural State
such as Kansas to meet govern
ment expense and the cost of schools
on the economic standard of the
boom days. But it did not let the
quality of instruction suffer.
Significant is the fact that while
in 1882 teachers received Sc per
cent of every dollar spent for edu-
cation, this year they are 81 per
cent. Furthermore, teachers SAL
aries have increased slightly during
the last two years.
Kansas is proud Of its public
schools and like every man and
woman of Kansas I share that
pride. Kansas ranks fifth in lit
eracy, only four-tenths of l per
cent below the leader, only two or
three other States have as large q
percentage of their children in high
school. Kansas is one of seven
States with per cent or more of
their population enrolled in colleges
or universities.
There is the Kansas record that
no scurrilous Misrepresentation
can take away.

sumo its normal functions in q
socially sound competitive order.
We provided credit at one end
of the business mechanism and
extreme courses in the days OF the
crisis in 1888. Many said the
purchasing power at the other.
The broken pipes Of the circula-
tory system of business have been
welded together again.
An overwhelming majority OF
independent individual business
men approve in their hearts what
we did to save American business.
I am equally sure that a handful
of monopolistic business men hate
what we did for American business.
Business had become regimented.
Free enterprise was being gobbled
up piece by piece. Economic con-

half-truths that tell the workers
only of the workers contribution,
and fail to mention the employers
contribution. They conceal from
the workers the fact that for every
dollar which the employe contrib
utes, the employer also contributes
q dollar, and that both dollars are
held in a Government trust fund
solely for the social security Of the
workers.
Things like this bring certain
types of employers into disrepute
with other employers and with the
great mass of our citizens. The
real objective Of this minority is
the repeal of any form of social
security to which they themselves
have to contribute. For many
years the record shows that this
minority has been willing to take
only a plan of unemployment
insurance and old-age pensions to
