He wound up by embracing the homely philosophies of Abrajiam Lincoln by remarking at Lincoln’s birthplace at Hodgenville. Ky.: “Here we can renew our pledge of fidelity to the faith which Lincoln hied in the common mini — the faith so simply expressed when he said: ‘As I would not. be a slave, so I would not be a master. 1 This expresses my idea of democracy. Whatever differs from Ithis, to the extent the difference is no democracy.” The president's trip which produced at least three addresses of first page calibre in contrast to oft-repeated White House declarations before he started out. that his taliks would 'be historical and only for local consumption, has convinced administration friends tlial he has taken the offensive in the bid for reelection and that he is ready for a busy summer and fall. _ n , On this tour of nearly 5.000 miles which carried him to the Istates of Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Indiana, and Kentucky for public appearances, Mr. Roosevelt tor the most part wais in territory friendly to his cause ami his presence lent itself to wild demonstrations by thousands of hsi partisan followers. Mr. Roosevelt, it was said by those close to him, was so pleased

over the reception of his addresses that were drawn from history of the various states timt he was seriously giving attention to drawing on further historical lessons as texts for his camp a i g n speeches. AIRPLANE SIGN PAINTED HERE Sign To Guide Aviators Painted On Local Building The largest and perhaiw the most valuable sign in Decatur was painted this morning. Il wiil be visible to only a few of the citizens. The sign was painted by a crew of Wl’A workers under the direction of Frank Laitkin from the United States department of the interior, for use of airplanes. It is located on the roof of the Green Kettle ingSimilar signs are being painted on towns every 15 square miles as a part of the national defense movement. They will assist filers in unknown teritory to locate their positions without risking a •'forced” landing to inquire directions. The markers will also be valuable to commercial fliers and will eave many lives over the country. The sign here is 7o by eight feet in oize. it will be visible as high as 3.300 to 1,000 feet on clear days. The 14 inch band# on the letters are painted a chrome yellow which, when laid on black asphaltic roots form the most visible color combination. The letters were painted on an aluminum baseTo further assist fliers, a large arrow, pointing north over the letter "N” was painted. Mr. Larkin stated that the signs have proved especially valuable to aviators who have been flying blind several h airs ami suddenly reach a imint where the weather clears for an instant. A visible sign is then of considerable value to them. He also thanked the owners of the building for their cooperation, stating that the department is without an aippropriation to pay rent for the signs. — Q SLATE HELLER (CONTINUED l '' l Ralph E.

NORRIS AGAIN BACKS F.D.R. Roosevelt Plans Active Campaign For ReElection Washington, June 18. — (U.R) — President Roosevelt will plunge immediately into his re-election campaign after his expected renomination at Philadelphia next week, White House plans revealed today. Plans call for a major political address at the Monticello home of j Thomas Jefferson near Charlottesville, Va., July 4. It will be his answer to Gov. Alf M. Landon's statement that “to me the light is on.” Prior to the convention Mr. Roosevelt will remain in Washington to pilot congress through the adjournment rapids and prepare his acceptance speech to be made at Franklin Field, Philadelphia, probably June 26 or 27. While the Democratic national convention waits to make Mr. Roosevelt Governor Landon's official opponent for the presidency, others engaged hi sharp skirmishing in which the Kansas governor was the central figure. Postmaster General James A. Farley, who also is Democratic national committee chairman, and Sen. George W. Norris, nominally a Republican, assailed Landon as “the man nobody knows.” John Hamilton, newly-elected G. O. P. national chairman, replied sharply. Farley, speaking in New York, said the fact that the G. O. P. nominated an “unknown" was proof that the delegates to the Cleveland i convention were taking orders from “representetives of special interests.” He described the Republican platform as composed of “counteffeit. new deal" planks. Norris in a radio address last night said the Cleveland convention demonstrated it believed in "Hoover principles of government" and that if Republicans “had the courage of their convictions they would have nominated Mr. Hoover i for president." He echoed Farley's reference to Gov. Landon as "the great mystery candidate” and described the Kansas governor as a man "whose greatest asset is that nobody knows him, and nobody knows what he stands tor.” Again supporting President Roosevelt, as he did in 1932, Sen. ator Norris urged "my countrymen to forget partisanship and come to the support of the man who more than any other man in recent years has stood for the welfare of the common people.” While Norris made definite his 1936 bolt from the Republican party, Sen. William E. Borah, R., Idaho, remaine dsilent as to his plans. The Idahoan, resentful of Gov. Landon's personal reserva-

tions on the G. O. P. platform, said he would wait until he returns homo before making known his campaign plan?.

Tlte committee vole was 9 to 5. The new bill reenacts pricc-fixiijg provisions of the original act but eliminates labor provisions held unconstitutional by the court. Committee chairman Burton K. Wheeler. !>., Mont-, said the major change in the measure was revision of the so-called “comtpMance tax" to provide for an outright excise levy on one and one half per cent on all soft coal, plus a 13% tper cent levy.
