THE LAMB LEADING THE WOLF PACK

If Governor Landon listening last night,
and venture he the Chief Executive of Kansas
now the Republican nominee for the Presidency,
must have learned to his painful surprise that the
political wisdom candidate might show in running
for one office may rise to strike him in the face
political sin when ambition pushes him on to higher
things 1t was his neighbor, Gov. Roy L. Cochrane
of Nebraska the Democratic National Committees
nationwide broadcast, who brought out the differ
ence between Landon, the Governor of Kansas, and
Candidate Landon who seeking the highest office
in the land
Governor Cochrane recalled that it was Mr.
Landon who in 1884 said he had been cooperating
to the fullest with the Roosevelt Administration but
who now as candidate for the Presidency crying
against the New Deal 1t was Mr. Landon who was
reelected Governor of Kansas on 100 per cent New
Deal platform Mr.. Cochrane recalled, but who as
Candidate Landon strikes out at the of the Roose-
welt Administration. Kansas, under Landon regime,
stands oath in the list of states in population and is
burdened with taxation, Neighbor Cochrane from Ne
braska remarked, but Landons Kansas stands 18th
in the list of states enjoying benefits under the
Roosevelt Administration from the Federal govern
ment. 1t is significant that since the facts have
come out on the Federal relief benefits to Kansas
Governor Landon has said nothing about his record
of balancing the Kansas budget and Republican pub
liciy along those lines has entirely died out Silence
IS sometimes the better part of wisdom.
But it Governor Charles H Martin of oregon
who put the finger Mr.. Landon's compromising
and extremely vulnerable position. Praising the
Kansas Governor as personally fine gentleman the
Oregonian commented:
But Governor Landon is like the lamb leading
the wolf pack-the same old Wall Street wolf pack
which is represented by Andrew Mellon Ogden Mills
and Herbert Hoover, who have through the years
attempted to hamper the development of natural
resources for the benefit of the whole people
Are these the new liberals?" demanded Governor
Martin, in pointing out that Landon was described
as the man who was swinging the Republican party
to more liberal thought
Therein is found the answer of why in one
breath Governor Landon shouts about state rights
and in the other asks Federal control of agriculture
and Federal setup of social security Like puppet
on the string, the gentleman from Kansas can do
naugh else but what the boys behind the Republican
throne tell him to do. The old wolf pack who ran
this country to ruin during the Hoover regime is
right in there again. and in full cry Not only would
they sacrifice the masses of the people of this nation
ON the altar of greed but if he stands in their way
they will hamstring Mr.. Landon with the same
dispatch.
The present campaign is not one of Republicans
against Democrats. Rather it is the fight of the great

Japanese Births
Rise in 1885 to
ESQ Every Hour
BY GLENN BABB

TOKYO, July 90 With little
brown babies arriving at the rate
of more than $50 an hour, Japans
natural increase in population dur
ing 1885 was the greatest in his
tory.
For the second time her annual
growth passed one million. 1t was
1,028,623 during the year, compared
with l,OO7,398 in 1882, the previous
record year
These figures show there is no
relaxation in the pressure of popu-
lation on the resources of Nippon.
Japanese social scientists explain
by that factor the restless straining
of this eastern empire against all
bonds, its conquest of Manchuria,
its military and economic penetra-
ton into North China, its plans for
economic advance into the South
Seas and its unceasing fight for
world markets.
Emigration Negligible
The figures are those of the
Cabinets Bureau of Statistics They
apply only to Japan proper, exclud-
ing colonies such as Korea and
Formosa and the newer dependency
of Manchoukuo.
Natural increases means simply
the margin of births over deaths.

asked to join the Black Legion, Warden
Harry H. Jackson announced he had
discharged Guard Sergt Charles
Cooley for activity in the affairs of
the secret order.
Three other guards have been sus-
pended, and one Of them, Ray Ernest,
faced srraignment today as a member
of the band of Is who flogged Harley
