OLSON, IN CLINIC,
BACKS ROOSEVELT
Farmer Labor Governor,
Critically III, Receives
Message in Reply.
By the Associated Press.

ROCHESTER, Mimi, August 19.-
From his sick bed in a Mayo Clinic
Hospital. Gov. Floyd B. Olson of Min
nesota today urged liberals" to unite
ito re-elect Franklin Roosevelt and
prevent the election of reactionary
Alfred Landon."
The Farmer-Labor Governor set
forth his sentiments in a telegram
to Senator Robert La Toilette, Pro-
gressive, Of Wisconsin which he die
tated last night in the infirmary
where he is critically Ill of a stomach
ailment.
From the President, the Governor,
whose condition remained the same
today, received q telegram stating he
hoped to visit the Minnesota execu-
tive here August 81. Sent from Hyde
Park. N. Y. the message stated:
IT hope to arrive in Minnesota Au-
gust 81 and visit you at Rochester.
Best Of luck. Keep up the good
fight"
Previously, it had been reported from
Washington that President Roosevelt
had planned to visit Gov. Olson at
his Gull Lake Summer home on his
Northwest trip late this month.
Gov. Olson's statement backing the
President was in reply to La Follette's
invitation to Olson to join in calling
a conference Of Progressive leaders in
Chicago early in September to approve
the Roosevelt candidacy. Stating he
would be. delighted" to join in the
call, Olson's message added:
"I assure you of full agreement
that liberals must unite in 1886 to
re-elect Franklin Roosevelt and to pre-
vent the election of reactionary Alfred
as President and to promote
complete unity for the future.
Divided Vote Feared.
"In this campaign we must choose
between President Roosevelt or Gov.
Landon. Progressives and liberals
cannot afford to divide their votes
and thereby place in the presidency
a reactionary Republican. For the
liberals to split their votes is merely
playing into the hands of the Wall
Street gang.
II have the utmost respect for the
Union ticket candidate and for Father
Coughlin, whose program of none
tary reform Is sound. We Farmer
Laborites have been for the same pro-
gram for many years, and Father

Count Ciano, Mussolinis son-in-law, is now
Italy's foreign minister. He is pleased when
people prefer to him as the number two man
in the Kingdom Empire.
And this Is natural. Ciano Is 80 years old:
he Is proud Of being the youngest foreign Sec
retary a country has ever had. In diplomatic
quarters it Is said that Anthony Eden, the
British foreign secretary, dislikes Ciano because
he has taken away from him the glory Of being
the prodigy baby secretary.
Ciano is naturally Mussolini's favorite, be-
cause he is his son-in-law and he has an un-
bounded trust In him. That does not mean
that he over estimates his ability or allows him
any freedom of action; quite the contrary; the
foreign affairs of Italy are as much in II Duce's
hands now as they were when he was his own
secretary Of state But he is able to talk to his
foreign minister with a greater freedom than
he could with Grandi or Suvich

Women Teachers
in Charlotte Will
CetLower Payroll

Women classroom teachers alone
excepted, all employees of the Char
lotte school system were granted in
creases in salaries by the city school
board in afive-hour session Monday
night that lasted until after a. m.
and at times was rather hectic.
The 1936-1937 tentative school ex-
pense budget of $7O0,821 was adopt
ed-the total representing an in
crease of $66,234 over last year.
Discord was caused by the pro-
posal to increase the pay of all en-
ployes-from superintendent to
janitors- except women classroom
teachers. Their elimination from the
program of salary advances was pro-
tested by Mrs. w. c. Meacham,
woman member of the board, who
had the support of some other mem
bers. Finally, however, the women
teachers were denied any increase,
while advances were voted all
others.
The argument in favor of advances
for men teachers was that in many
cases the men are heads of families
whose sole support is the salary of
the husband and father, while in
many cases the women teachers
have nobody but themselves to sup
port. It was argued, however, that
many women teachers have to sup
port parents or other relatives.
The discrimination" has resulted
in criticism of the board.
