The senator from Tennessee was talking about the absolute necessity of taxing away most of the income of those who had a million dollars. Remarked Huey: Thats quite right. No one should be allowed to have a million dollars a year. What would they do with it?

DESPERATE MEASURE Facing the most ominous elec tion prospect in decades, G. O. P. leaders in Pennsylvania are getting desperate; frantically casting about for a combination that will brighten their chances. The latest proposal under serious consideration would project one of the strangest s in a long time. The plan is as follows; Puddler Jim Davis to resign his senate seat and run for governor. Governor Gifford Pinchot to run for Davis unfinished term, thus clearing the way for Senator Dave Reed to have an unobstructed field in the Republican primary to succeed himself. The big drawback to the ingenious scheme is the attitude of the Puddler." Jim likes the idea of being governor well enough. In fact, his standing complaint since the lottery trial is that his senatorial duties do not keep him busy enough. But the "Puddler is no man to take chances particularly where his purse is involved. He refuses to give up a sure thing for an uncertainty, no matter how much he may want it. Jim has no objection to running for governor. But he balks at resigning from the senate to do so.

The nature of the service to be requested will remain a mystery until the moment the president addresses ins audience. It is generally known that ;he scouts will be asked to assist the national relief program m some practical way. If cooperation of the public is essential to the successful carrying out of the program a to participate general invitation will be issued in the course of the broadcast. The entire membership of the Boy Scouts, 904,240, will be called together to listen to President Roosevelts message. The more than a million Scout parents and the 5,409,368 others who have had Scouting experience will be asked to unite also in meeting the presidents summons. The extent of the vast audience that will greet the president is gathered from the fact that, with those named, there will be the 1,268,448 who were members ot the Boy Scouts of America during 1933, and the 14,500 new Scouts who have joined the movement since the first of the year. In addition to 'the Call to Service the president is expected to draw attention to the forthcoming Silver Jubilee of the Boy Scouls of America which will be celebrated throughout 1935.
