Y.--Gov. Alf M. Landon of Kansas charged the Roosevelt administration with increasing by 25 per cent the share of the cost of government falling mainly on persons of incomes of $25 a week or less, in a speech delivered before a crowd of 25,000 persons here. He deplored wasteful spending and deficits, with their increased burden of hidden taxes, and declared, "The tinge has come when we must establish a system of , simple, honest bookkeeping." . • "We must remember," he said, "that every time the government spends a dollar, that dollar will have to be paid by our children." The Republican Presidential candidate reiterated his belief in direct taxes levied on the net incomes of individual^ $nd corporations as a means of charging everyone his fair share of the cost of government and letting him know what that share is. Taxes Hit Low Incomes. "'In the vear 1932, 59 cents out of every dollar collected by our federal government was secured from direct taxes," said Gov. Landon. "The other 41 cents was collected from indirect and hidden taxes. "Four years later what do we find? We find that 51 cents out of every dollar collected by the federal government came from hidden taxes. In other words, theishare of the cost of government falling mainly on those with incomes of $25 a week cr less has increased 25 per cent during the three years of the present administration. They are paying far more than their rightful share of the cost of government." G. O. P. for Relief. Gov. Landon likened the New Deal party's policy of spending double its income to the familiar character of the neighbor who buys more than he can afford, and eventually "winds up on the rocks." "The Republican party believes in being generous in the spending of money for relief and emergency purposes, but it believes that these funds should be spent without waste and absurdities," he said. Politics Keeps Dakota Cattle Dry, Says 'Ding' Washington, D. C.--How politics has denied water to Dakota cattle during the drouth was described by Jay N. Darling, known affectionately to millions as "Ding" the cartoon ist, when he was interviewed on the William Hard radio hour. Until recently "Ding" was chief of the ureau of biological survey of the epartment of agriculture. "The bureau of biological survey," said Mr. Darling, "made a careful survey for the New Deal administration of the water re- JAY N. "DING" DARLING sources of North Dakota. A program of impounded water reservoirs to hold all the water that might fall in good years and bad was completed. "But," continued Mr. Darling, "the relief money for North Dakota was handed over to political administrators for distribution, and the scientific men who had prepared the water conservation program were told that the only way in which they could secure the authorization of their projects was to apply to these politicians. The result has been that the only water available in North Dakota in this year of excessive drouth is to be found in the few ponds -- very few -- which the biological survey was able to construct out of some stray moneys on which it managed to lay its hands." William Hard's Hoar. Chicago.--The radio division of the Republican National committee announced that the program, "News for Voters" would in the future be known as "William Hard's Hour". It is heard nightly, from Monday to Friday, over the NBC coast-to-coast Blue network at 9:00 P. M., EST, except on Wednesdays when it is •JlWjrd at 8;4S P. M., EST.

Formerly the parades and mass meetings were strictly trade unionist &P fairs with little of a^ political hue about them. Next Monday will witness the open and avowed participation of labor groups in the realm of party warfare. ' The powerful cliques Working for the re-election of President Roosevek will have their big moments on this holiday with only a few minor distractions sponsored by union, leaders who have been enliste'd under the Republican banners. Veteran Democratic chieftains are alarmed at the! dominant trend of labor within -their party because it may lead to a militant Labor ticket in 1940. The cleavage in the organized labor move? ment is the one bright spot along the sector as it forecasts inability to pre* sent a solid front at the polls.

"How can he do a stroke of work when there's a strike?" Bureaucracy is notoriously disposed to take unto itself a mife \4hen given an inch of authority to regulate Yet the Department of Labor and the Federal Trade Commission, beneficaries of legislative largesse, are shy and unwilling to try out their wings in the enforcement of the two outstanding monuments to anti-business lawmaking. True they are going through the motions of obeying the mandate but slowly and hesitatingly. These agencies are not at all satisfied with the the answ^j^ Healey-Walsh Act, dealing with government contracts and , regulation of working conditions, or the Robinson- Patman price discrimination law which were rushed through Congress in a haphazard fashion. It would be folly to expect that the confusing patchwork of contradictions which now plagues the be legal minds is sufficient to encouragi repeal, On the contrary, the enforcement agehcies will go before the next Congress seeking revision to the end of ^extending rigid control over industries and harmpnizing compliance by states. Th^sMpns back of the price discrimination/ bill were n^t pleased with their brain-child as it emerged from the legislative incubator. One legislator is carrying on an active piopagaitda for proposed amendments primarily designed to wuie out chain stores systems. The defects of the government contract statute are so glaring that the Labor Department finds it well nigh impose sible to obtain co-operation from Federal purchasing agencies. A wholesome effect of the uncertainty as to what the statutes really mean has been a voluntary study of trade practices by industries presumably coming within the scope, of these poorly drafted measures. The nomination of Senator Pat Harr rison of Mississippi, which in his case is equivalent to election, revives in terest in taxation. The Senator will again head the powerful Senate Finance Committee as the election .cannot possibly unhorse the Democratic majority in the Upper House.

These specialists insist revenue laws must be ceeds the government's income from these sources. Out of the political cauldron stray bit^ of conversations are directed to the possibility of Gov.
