gates and visitors from six states -Ohio. Pennsylvania, Kentucky. Tennessee, Michigan and West Virginia. The Pennsylvania delegation, largest to arrive thus far. came in two sections late la.st night. Tho regular delegation, headed by CarroU, arrived on a special train a.nd found a group of “old guard” delegates already on the scene. The delegation held a caucus, at which loud and raucous argument developed, ostensibly by Carroll and Bender, without conferring with the rank and hie of the delegation. Tne argument ended with the ‘‘old guard” group winning a partial victory whereby proposals made by the all-powerful resolutions committee of the Pennsylvania group must be submitted to the entire delegation before being presented to the convention. Th controversy between ‘he “regular” and “liberai” groups, though it may permeate the convention, had no place on the formal program, which seemed to be devoted almost entirely to a.n attack on the present Democratic administration. Bender admitted frankly that the conference would be an "a.r.ti meeting, in which the new deal and every Democratic office holder from the President on down would be attacked. Regardless of what the convention turned out to be, it had tho otticia’ blessing of the Republican high command, despite the earlier understanding that Republicans of national repute would have nothing to do with the meeting. ,- 0 — STATE POLICE CONTINUED FROM 1 AOW ONE itory above the horse barn, and given class instruction in the Indiana university building.

Donating money long lias been a trait of th Rockefeller family. An old ledgi't kept in 1855-56 shows I that over a four month period Ro.kI t feller gave away $5.58 when hits , earnings for that 1 ngth f time , I were only SIOO. The base for the vast fortune was laid in 187 D with the formation of; ■ the Standard Oil Company. From' that d-its until well into the 20th ( century, the Rockefeller career was i a hectic one.

Each recruit will be given a thorough physical and mental examination on Aug. 3, the final day of the school. The recruits were selected from 125 applicants after physical a.nd mental examinations held during the past two weeks. During the first year of service they will be subject to dismissal without hearing before the new state police board. After the probation period, however, officers may be dismissed only after trial before the board. TERRIFIC RAIN CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONR_ following dead in the central New York areas all -tentative: Ithaca —9 Binghamton—7 Utica-1 Bath—2 Watkins Glen—l Trumansburg—l. Most of the deaths occurred in isolated areas near the munici-' palities. Many other persons were reported missing. Fears of panic and famine were voiced by officials. RICHEST MAN CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE But a Rockefeller public relations counsel report today said his program was not changed for his birthday. He did not get a birthday cake —but one gift could not he topped by a postoffice blockade orderled here to prevent his disturbance bv packages and messages, iit was said.

R A feller .started all this when h? standardized one of th? pr ducts upon which civilization . depends. Total Gifts Not Known As the vast Rockefell r fortune was built up whol'sale, so it was m cessary to disburse it in the same manner rather than in small lots in retail fashion. No accurate audit of the gifts of Rockefeller and his son, John D., Jr., ever has been made, but all estimates place the ! t tai at above thrce-qqiatrters of a 1 ilLon. The chi. f principle followed in ; ontributing this figure has been that the best investment for future generations is th- health and wellbeing cf the present gen-ration. Th Rockefeller Foundation hs; receiv’d the largest ■sums, between $180j0lM),O00 and $20,000,000. The General Education Board ranks clos > to the same figure.

the day with him. The 61-year-old son. now active head of the. great financial kingdom the elder Rockefeller bitil', arrived yesterday. ■■■ o TREASURY HEAD CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE correct evils produced by existing tax legislation as they become apparent.” Morgenthau asserted that 'he sources of taxation proposed by the president in his message “can be made to yield substantial additions to the receipts of the federal government. “This is shown in our estimates of revenue based upon he schedule of rates submitted by your i subcommittee to the treasury for calculation of probable yield,” he said. The estimates sent to the treasury were understood to broaden he base of the president's program so as to tax inheritances of as low as $50,000 and raise income surtaxes at least down to the SIOO,OOO brackeit so as to produce a possible annual revenue of i about $300,000,000. o HUEY LONG OBTAINS CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE tie, brilliantly hued shirt and white linen stiU, grinned broadly from a vantage point near the dais. He ambled away to visit the house of representatives, which waited only to act on any amendment Long might find advisable at the moment. In equally quick fashion the senators voted on the remaining bills. There was no word of debate. Senators yawned visibly as the reading clerk droned through his routine and the gavel banged out the steps in delivering Louisiana bound and gagged to Long. Only one bill got as many as five negative votes, most were adopted unanimously. Critics of Long, mostly repre-

Learned Thrift Early These many mill! ns spent to improv? the world probably were the r suit of the thrift Rockefeller learned from his mother. This train was carried throughout his business career and probably was demonstrated most graphically by an In: ident that oc.urr d while R ckfellcr was in th- commission business long before he enter d the oil fi Id. R r-k- feller wa.s visit d by a friend one day while working in I a little warehouse in Cleveland. The; visitor remarked about the ne.it and orderly condition f the stock. I Th-n pointing to several barrels, Rockefeller .-aid; "Ev ry one of th se beans I picked over by hand niys -ls. \V? got tnem cheap because there w r> a good ni ny black ones among them. 1 have put in a:y o ar ■ time, day and night, f r the past few weeks •orting them over. Now they are | extra quality and w ■ shall sell them ’ it an extra price." Long ago Rockef Her t :rm il a ; re-ipe for getting rich. Its cardinal! points w re: Make everything count for some-1 thing. Never go into an enterprise un-j less sure that it is coming out all; right. “I believe the only way to succeed is to keep getting ahead all the j time.”

| -1 sentatives of the New Orleans ij machine asserted biti'erly that by r today's legislative action tho •- “kingfish” virtually assured himself of reelection nex. year to his senate seat. Even elementary students of Louisiana politics conceded tha Long had succeeded at last in the battle be has waged - with the "old regulars” since he ' became chairman of the public -' service commission a.- the age of 28. Other laws passed by his legis- ’ lature already had given him conI trol of the New Orleans police de- - partment, gave the departmen- ’ power to borrow on anticipated revenues and denied tho ci'y iti tself the same right, and took for - the state its mos<t important • revenues. . — o Friedheini Church To Cali Minister I I Tho Zion Lutheran church at .' Friedheim, northwest of Decatur, I will hold a congregational meeting ; tonight a.t 7:30 o'clock to call another minister to till its pulpit, !| made vacant through the retirement of the Rev. C. B.

Karl Wyneken, circuit visitor and pastor of Trinity Suburban Lutheran church of Fort Wayne. o TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE and a state assemblyman was injured, perhaps fatally, when thei ’ car left the road at a curve near Whitewater, Wis.
