Mrs. Jesse Owens V/htle her amazing husband, Jesse Owens, American Olympic star who won three firsts at the Berlin games, went on a barnstorming trip through Europe.

KNOX STEAKS (Continued From Page One) which has traditionally stood for freedom of institutions and moderation in government no less than tne Republican party ” Turning to “governmental squandering” Knox said: “There lias been much talk about soaking the rich. To the plain man, working hard for a limited wage, soaking the rich seems an easy arrangement for meeting the cost of government. In practice it does not work out that way. There are laws of economics and mathematics working here and these laws operate to limit the soaking of the rich. Beyond these limits, taxing the rich man destroys wealth and capital reducing investment and reducing wagea. “No administration before has so paraded its iove for the olain people, especially around election time. But the figures on taxation do not confirm this affection. In JOriO under the Republican administration income taxes and corporation taxes, Which come generally from the well to do. totaled $2,500,000 000, wdiile the taxes on consumers, the hidden taxes paid by the wages of the people. were loss than $1.500 000,000. “In under the present administration, the income and corporation taxes had fallen to less tivn $1,500,000.000, while the taxes on consumers had doubled to $2,500,000,000. "The share of the burden of taxes borne by the mass of the people has risen under the new deal from M0 per cent to 60 per cent. My authority for this statement is the president of the United States.” In six years Knox said, i ost of government in the United States has grown from one-seventh to onetourth of the national income. Citing the national debt of “more than $34.000,000,000,” Knox said that “a baby born today will start life with a debt of $260 on its shoulders.” "If this stupendous increase in the burden of debt had been forced by the failure of government revenues,” Knox said, “it would have been excusable . . . but there is no such excuse. This weight of debt has come from the waste and extravagance and costly experimentation above and beyond a cruel pressure of taxation.”

PKE>IDE VI TOURS SCENE OF, JOHNSTOWN, PA., FLOOD LAST SPRING JOHNSTOWN, Pa.. Aug. 14 — j Governor George H. Earle of Pennsylvania, after a conierence with President Roosevelt last night, an- , nounced presidential approval of al- j lotm* nts totalling $2,961 900 for preliminary flood control projects in western Pennsylvania. The announcement came after the iresident had spent more than an ‘lout' in discussion ot Hood control problems with state and federal ottiials who accompanied him on a personal inspection of th- Johnstown area flooded last March. Markham said bank protection projects will be started within two weeks along the Monongahela and Allegheny rivers. The chief of engineers estimated these projects would provide between j four and five months employment for ! approximately 1,000 men. Earle said the president was particularly impr >sed with tV fact that Pennsylvania has been the chief flood I sufferer among the states, adding “our direct loss was bout $212,000 000.” President Roosevelt earlier had promised Johnstown citiz -ns the federal government would co-operate to the utmost to prevent the recurrence of floods which poured through the city last March. Leaving his special train for the first time on his personal tour of flood areas in Ponnsylvat -a and Now York the chief executive rode through the downtown section of the City where Hood waters caused damage estimated at $28,000,000 !a<--t St Patrick’s day. Crowds lined the route to the city limits as tne president was whisked fifteen miles to tne site of a proposed dam on Stoin creek which army ?ngineers assert would help remove the menace of floods from Johnstown. Accompamng Mr. Pooscvelt in his car were Governor George H. Earle of Pennsylvania, who joined the party at Johnstown and Maj. Gen. Edward M. Markham, chief of army engineers.
