ACLE" OF BALANCED BUDGET WON FAME FOR LANDON

providing relief He has insisted that
the State must contribute the fun
measure of relief laid down by au-
thorities at Washington.
Tax reduction clinched his popu-
larity with the citizens Of Kansas.
Every automobile owner remembers
that he cut automobile license costs
in half Not a single tax has been
increased during his regime-yet ths
income from taxes in certain classes
has increased. This has been due 10
Landon's strict enforcement OF tax
collection laws, especially with re-
Spect to taxes on cigarettes and gaSos
line He Waged vigorous campaigns
! against bootleggers Of these products.
Ordered Savings
All Along Line.
In his economy program Lsndon 10
some degree adopted Coolidgehks
policy. He ordered savings all along
State government-even to the al
lowsnce of shoelaces for State priS.
oners.
In pursuing this economy program
| Landon risked the unpopularity that
| comes to one who cuts salaries and
| enforces reduction of State eX-
penditures. Eventually Kansans saw
the soundness OF the economies and
| praised him for effecting them.
AS proof of the wisdom Of his drive
on tax evaders, his supporters point
to the fact that in 1892 revenues from
| cigarette taxes amounted TO $4,000.
while in 1884. with no increase in the
I tax rate. the revenue from that source
totaled S38400O.
! Lsndon is not one to blow his own
! horn. He tells all his intervieWers
that due credit should be given Demo-
cratic supporters Of his program, with
out whose aid. he explains, the plans
could not have succeeded.
! He is not hailed by his admirers as
! a super-man or miracle worker
William Allen White, noted Kansas
editor, has said Of him: Gov.
Lsndon's friends will say 10 the Ma
ton, here is Kansas product-a
straight, diligent. prudent. conscien-
tious young Republican, who was a good
soldier and has made public record
that has held Kansas in line for the
/ Republican ticket in a time Of Demo-
cratic tidal wave. We believe he will
grow under the terrific force Of his
higher responsibilities into COM
petent President. No one knows what
he or the times will develop.
But he will go forward and not
back. That we know He will 90

and pluck began 70 succeed and TO
make money.
Just how much money he made is
a matter OF speculation. Some have
called him a millionaire, but LAndon
himself says that is exaggerating his
wealth. Indica tions are ne had at
least half q million-all won by his
own endeavor under trying circum-
stances.
Daughter Born
to First Wife.
He married Margaret Fleming OF
Oil City. Pa, in 1915. and they had
q daughter Margaret Ann. now q stu
dent in college. Mrs. Lsndon died
soon after the child's birth, and the
father reared Margaret Ann, or
Peggy Ann, as he prefers to call
her. as well as any mother could. He
often took her on campaign trips
Landon married again in 1881. His
second wife was Miss Theo Cobb OF
Topeka, Kans.. daughter Of q banker
They have two children. Nancy jose
phine and John Cobb Landon.
Gov. Landon is 8 Methodist, an Elk
4 Mason and an Odd Fellow. He also
Is q member OF the American Legion
and of Phi Gamma Delta and Phi
Delta Phi Fraternities.
He has been called q dry" but he
was the first Governor OF Kansas to
offer the people o chance to vote on
the liquor question in q referendum
Kansas now sells beer legally under
the Landon administration. Landon
has been known to take drink, when
drinking was legal.
He is fond Of sports, especially base
ball and foot ball.
He has had little time for play
however, for he has enjoyed hard
work almost as much as recreation
He has left his work only to serve
his country as q lieutenant in the
Chemical Warfare Service in 1918. He
did not get overseas.
Landon long has been interested in
politics-but he is not what is gen.
orally meant by the word politician.
As q student in the University of
Kansas he took part in college politics
and became q leading figure in campus
meetings and elections.
Took Active Part
In County Politics.
After college he took an active part
in precinct and county politics OF
the Republican party and eventually
was rewarded with the Republican
State craftsmanship.
Landon, during these early years
earned his right to be called q pro-
sressive. In 1912, for example, he
bolted the regulars to become q Bull
Mooser with Theodore Roosevelt.
He is q believer in youthful ideas
He has aided in the organization Of
powerful clubs Of young Republicans
all Of whom swear by him and are
ready to take the field in his behalf
