on the Kansan's labor record.
The refutation came in a state

of the committee on labor of the
Kansas Oil Production committee.
II was also signed by T.. 3. Shaw
Vcr, chairman OF the committee on
enforcement for Kansas under the
Petroleum Industry Code.
The statement said: mot one
complaint was filed by an cmployc.
OF anyone else that All M. Landon
was not paying the wages fixed by
our labor committee. Governor
Landon is now paying lease workers

free housing and fuel, equivalent TO

Relief for Needy

Budget, He Says.

CLEVELAND, OF I am
elected chief executive of this
country, the federal budget is go
ing to be balanccdw Gov. Ali Nj.
Landon told 4 wildly enthusiast
tic crowd which overlooked the
public auditorium here. "But it
is not going to be balanced ut
the expense of our needy unem-
ploycd." he said. "Thcy are en-
titled to ample relief for their
needs and | shall see that they
get it,"
Following through with a ringing
denunciation of waste and politics in
relief under The Roosevelt adj
ministration. he declared: Nobody
in America knows exactly how
many of our citizens are out of
work, how many are on relief.
This administration has found
time to make tourist guide books. 1t
has found money to classify fossils.
1t has spent sever and one-half bill
lion dollars of the taxpayers money
in the name of relief But it has
found neither time nor money to in
form itself of the extent and nature
of the relief problem"
Gov. Landon pledged himself TO
the Republican formula of state adj
ministration of relief, aided by
grants from the federal government
He proposed these four conditions:
State and local governments should
bear fair share of the cost. All
engaged in the administI alton of
relief should be chosen on their
merit. Relief clients should be al
lowed to take temporary Jobs, re-
turning to relief rolls when the jobs
are finished, and an employment,
service should be operates to assist
them. Public works should be un-
dertaken on their merit and not
confused with relief administration.
He summed up the "box score"
of the Roosevelt administration:
twenty-five billion dollars spent.
Thirteen billion dollars added to
the public debt.
Eleven million unemployed left
on base"

ALONG ELM STREET
Greensboro, North Carolina
(By CAPT. d. j. GILMIER)

Truly Ringing Brothers, Barnunl
and Bailey's Circus is the greatest
show on earth. Many people take it
with grain Of salt and pass it up
without due consideration of the
greatness of the fact that, Ringling
Brothers and Barnum and Bailey is
the greatest show Oh earth. For my
party, 1 wish the people could see
what is meant by the advertisement
that that Circus is the greatest show
on earth. If we could see the intrin-
sic value of the greatness of the show
and then tell the children about it =,
the world and God would bc greatly
benefited by the result of such teach
ing.
Ringling Brothers, Barnum and

power that logically dispute it, that
whiskey has no place i'll the serious
and efficient side of life, for what
actor could do his turn OH the wire,

Landon "In," Polls Show
Has 3Ol Electoral Votes

CHICAGO.-A consensus of all
Presidential polls being conduct
cd in the United States now shows
that Gov. ALI M. Landon has
3Ol votes in the electoral college,
it was announced at Republican
National committee headquarters
here. Only 2G6 are necessary to
election.
Should Gov. Landon carry all
the states which the Literary
Digest poll shows him leading,
he would have $40 electoral votes.
The Digest poll on Oct. II gave
Landon 1905. 086 votes and Prcsi-
dent Roosevelt 1880
Indications are that President
Roosevelt will poll fewer votes
in November than he did in 1892
in every state, the committee
said.

G. there is no flower store where the

stores in Greensboro, but maybe, be-
cause of the high rent of business

where in town to sell flowers. True
enough Elm street property is high.
But the fact remains that there may
be with profit n flower store on Elm
Street or a veteran Of Uncle Sans
war might sell them along the street,
since some fthe veterans are tax
free. But there ought to be flowers
sold on Elm Street and why?
Flowers are said to be Gods gift

whereby they may send their smiles
back to the living in order that the
chain of love and memory may not
