WNUTT TELLS TAX BENEFITS

Says System Provides Equitable Leviées In Radio Talk Sun. day Night

@Gov. Paul V. McNutt said in a radio addrésg Bunday night the state govehffment had “Inaugurated a system that distributes equitably the levies necessary to carry on a sound -government system.” Asserting “partisanship does not enter into this discussion,” the governor said property levies had been slashed more than $43,000,000 in the last four years, and that there have been. property tax cuts in every eounty in the state. He gave .the gross income tax law major credit for the reduction in the property burden. “It is not my mission to give an exposition. of the operation of the gross income tax law, because you all know what it has accomplished,” he said. “It has made it possible for us to keep open our schools and it has made it possible for us to go ahead with our share of the: social security act. It has not been a burden upon anyone, and it saved the day for Indiana.” The governor declared the state reached a new high total of nearly $26,000,000 this year .in distribution of moneys collected by the state to all .local units of government includ ing counties, cities, towns townships and school. nuits.

“This sum: is nearly - $2,000,000 greater than last year and almost three times the amount for 1932-33,” he _said. : “The administraiont has spared no effort in urging local officials to aim for .a lower rate through the use of these distributions, - and any wunit which fails to do so is acting in direct conflict with sound policy, to say. nothing of bad ethies, in accepting moneys. from the state definitely intended to help reduce local rates and looking upon them merely as g’m.n :

THREE GANGSTERS AT LARGE | ——s Intensive Hunt om on Lafayette Ares An intensive seacrch on land and from the air near Lafayette fafled to produce any trace Monday of three Brady gangsters who escaped from the Hancock county jafl at Greefield Sunday. : Picked state police riflemen were rushed to Lafayette Monday afternoon when Mrs. Haskell Renmick of near Archerville, a small town in he northeast part of Tippecanoe coun ty reported a men resembling Clarence E. Shaffer, Jr., one of the fugl tives, beat and kicked her in a futie attempt to obtain money. An airplane piloted by Lawrence 1 Aretz of Lafayette and with Georme McCormick, chief of police of West \Latayette, flew over the area in hope of seeing the fugitives but they found no trace of taem.

Capt. Matt Leach expressed buliel that the clew had “bown up” and said his men were continuing a m.ta odical search in underworld hideouts in Indianapolis and other cities. The three fugitives—Shaffer, Alfred Brady and James Dahlhover—who are charged with the murder of an Indianapolis policeman, escaped from jail Sunday after beating Sheriff Clarence Watson into insensibility with an iron bar. Belief that tie men uzre still in the Lafayette neighborhood was. "urther strengthened by a report from L. C. Casey of Hoopeston, Ili, who said two men fired on him earlier in the day after attempting to halt him while he was driving north of Lafayette. ; It was known the t:io of gargsters were without money wnsu they fled from Green fleld in a 2 automobile stolen from Edgar Ridlen who juined in the fight outside the jail when Pe saw ‘Sheriff Watson being overp - ered by the escaping men.

HOBO PHILOSOPHTR STOPS HERE New Deal Influénce Dominates This Year”s Meanderings of “Knute” Hofins. There were no flags out in his honor and no drums or trumpets blared a welcome, but a national celebrity dropped into Ligonier Sunday. He is Knute Hofins, nationally known wandering poet or in lea poetic kowledge a bum. However, he is a cheerful bum withal, y has newspaper clippings from—ali over the U. 8. A. and —a letfer from President Roosevelt’s secretary thanking him for a poem that “Knute” knocked off in the chief evecutive’s honor. From a “cutterof lambs” on tombstones, Knute fought his way up to his present position of .tramp, one which he maintains with some eclat. You’'d known that Knute is no ordinary bum when he reaches in his wallet and produces a Biuvle and a dictionary, minature size. 4

He spent the night in the cily jafl alone. Shucks the new deal has the boys all working. So, I'll write a little poem for your edification. There are no days that I dislike, For all of them are good; I cannot change the way they come Nor would I if I could. Most all the people that I see, A-strolling down the stem; Have naught to say qf meals they've missed— Roosevelt has helped them. 3 I know he’s good so do not fuss— There’s no use to complain; When the election is over next month He'll_ have a substantial gain. ' I know full well, so do you all, That more money has been made; Of course the yellow sunflower Will be left out in the shade. - This is my message to Ligonier, It's exactly how 1 feel Even a wandering bum is helpad “Hurrah for the New Deal.” Knute
