since the Supreme Courts decision
the trend of prices Of wheat, corn,
hogs and cotton has been definitely
upward. except recently In the price

With respect TO corn, a look at the

futures = nine e-year peak, with De-

TOPEKA, October s.-The full text
of Gov. Landon's statement criticislng
New Deal arithmetic" follows:
The time has come for every Amer
ican voter to get out pencil and check
recently issued New Deal figures. After
adding and subtracting he will get re-
suits quite different from those
reached by the President and his vari-
Gus spokesmen.
An ordinary knowledge Of arith-
metic, without even the use OF pencil,
would show the fallacy Of the Presi-
dents recent statement at Pittsburgh
that "over = billion and half went
for the payment of the World War
veterans bonus this year instead Of In
1s45," and that payment is now out
of the way and is no longer a future
obligation OF the Government"

In other words. President Roosevelt

American farmers have lost far more

Montana OIL Journal.
City. June Is 1885.
Gentlemen:
At the 1881 session OF the MOn-
tana legislature, tried to per
suade some of the state legislators
90 introduce and have passed q btm
that would provide for, and levy
an import duty on gasoline shipped
into Montana, as that would aid kn
the development of the Montana oil
fields, give more stability TO our
refineries, create employment for 3
great deal OF labor and add greatly
TO the taxable property Of the state.
Some OF our abiest lawyers in the
legislature did not seem to know
how state could levy an import
duty on articles shipped into the
state.
The state can levy either ampors.
or export, duties. with the consent
Of congress. under the provisions OF
our federal constitution, the net
funds from which would go into the
federal treasury, but the law TO be
passed by congress giving its con-
sent to the state, should provide
that the net proceeds from the duties
levied by the state should be paid
by the federal government TO the
state treasury, thus giving Montana
the financial benefit OF the duty.
as the primary object to be attain
ed would be the development OF
natural resources in the
oil fields
would be glad to have the co.
operation of those In the oil In
iustry who are In favor OF protect
Montana oil. in an endeaEor TO
build up sentiment for such q Jaw.
Let's keep Montana money in Mon
ana, by using Montana oil.
Sincerely yours.

List among your unSung heroes
these Government clerks who, as
information office employees in
every department, bear the brunt
Of all contacts with the public.
But list especially those half-Score
young women in the director Of

Probably no other Government
department could lay claim to
more "fan mail" and telephone
inquiries per month than the
Social Security Board.
Although the security act
deeply affects every person in the

known about it than any other
Federal act. That is why a dozen

Sonally from Governor Harry M.

Georges county officer who has
been brought into the investiga-
tion of an alleged police-bonding
racket.
Harvey L. Cobb, general coun-
sci of the motorists organization,
sought to lay before Governor
Nice number of affidavitS in the
case. but was told by the latter's
secretary, Robert j. Irwin, in a
telephone conversation from Bal
timore, that the States chief ex-
ecutive is leaving today for st.
Louis and will not return until
November %.
keystone officials believe alb
Sence of the governor will seri-
ouSly delay them in seeking full
prosecution of the investigation.
Alan Bowie, States Attorney
for Prince Georges county, may
name an assistant to aid him in
presenting evidence gathered by
the keystone attorneys, Harvey l..
Cobb and Walter Newrath, of
Washington, and Louis LeboWitz,
of Mt. Rainier, to the grand jury
when that body reconvenes in the
near future.
To Name Assistant
Appointment of an assistant
and reconvening of the Grand
Jury has been held up pending
clearing of the criminal docket
at this term of court. The docket
was cleared this week and Mr..
Bowie is expected now to name
his assistant.

legged racket.
Sues for Towing Charge
A suit, growing out of collat-
eral investigation of police activi-
ties, is scheduled to be tried at

turn of $3.50 paid for towing and
service" last June.
The motorist charges he was
held for driving while drunk and
while he was in the police sta

With Wsshington's 1886 Com

lion dollars already contributed,
seven Government offices shared
the honor today of being the first
units to report "over the top" con-

Also reporting 100 per cent or
more of their quotas in group con-
tributions was the Traffic Division
of the Police Department and the
Receiving Home for Children.
U. S. Honor List
The Government units over the
100 per cent mark were the Inter-
mediate Credit Office of the Farm
Credit Administration, the Space
Control Division of the Treas
ury Procurement Division, Supply
Group 5 of the Procurement Di-
vision, Supply Group 6 Of the
Procurement Division, the Admin
istrator's Office of the Veterans

Authority and the Accounts and
Audit Division of the Public Debt
Service.
A total of $492 ,359.63 was re-
ported yesterday as the opening
gun of the campaign was fired at
an enthusiastic rally in the Will
lard Hotel ball room. Most of the
money had been raised by the
Special Assignments Unit, led by
Joseph P. Tumulty. This unit
had made a pre-campaign drive
for large contributions from firms
ard individuals who each year
generously support the chest.
Another report luncheon is to
be held at 1890 o'clock today
when it is expected the total
raised toward the $1,969, 900 goal
will be swelled past the 100000
mark.
To reach the goal of nearly two
million dollars, needed to carry on
the work of the Chests IS
agencies, the volunteer workers
must average more than 100000
a day in signed pledges between
now and the close of the drive,

Appeal Over Radio
The first formal general appeal
to WashingtonianS for support of
the drive was made last night over
radio stations WJSV and WMAL
by Newbold Noyes, newspaper edi-
tor and former campaign manager
and president of the chest. He
declared:

my word that the Washington
Community Crest as today or.
ganiZed is just what you and l
have been looking for and work

Strument to translate our mate
desire to help our unfortunate
fellow citizens into humane and
effective accomplishment"
Mr.. NoyeS called attention to
the fact that 10000 persons had
pledged support to the campaign
last year, but that nearly 100000
is yet to be collected on some Of
those pledges. He said it was alb
solutely necessary this year that
every pledge made be fulfilled.
