OMAHA INN EOEBED OF 12
Omaha. An unmasked customer
bandit held up the Aviation Inn in
East Omaha Friday night and es
caped with $12 after failing in an
attempt to kidnap two women in
their own automobile.
The kidnap attempt failed Avhen
the bandit who earlier had stood at
the bar and quaffed four beers, broke
off the ignition key to their car and
fled, knowing he could not start the
automobile.
Jim Hendrix, bartender at the inn,
said the man entered the place about i
fi p. m., and stood at the bar drink
ing beer and chatting for about thir-j
ty minutes. As Hendrix was putting
the money for his fourth and last
beer In the cash register, the bandit
suddenly commanded him to "leave
the till open."
Hendrix whirled and saw the rob
Ler standing there calmly, his beer
In one hand and a pistol in the other.
The man forced Hendrix out from be
hind the bar and made him join an
untidentified man and two women
customers at a table while he looted
the till. After tying Hendrix and the
unidentified customer up, he forced
the two women to accompany him
outside and forced them into their
own tar. lie fled, however, when the
ignition key broke off.
President Looks
for Better Days
Under New Deal
Reassures Eoy W. Howard, Publisher,
in Letter, That Conditions Are
Steadily Improving.
Satisfied that the "basic program"
of the new deal is substantially com
pleted, President Roosevelt at Hyde
Park, New York, set about to lend
an example to the nation of the
dav's declaration for a "breathing
spell." In an exchange of letters
with Roy W. Howard, publisher of
th ScriDDs-Howard newspapers, the
president noted the publisher's state
mpnt that "manv businessmen who
nr.ofi cave vou sincere support are
r.nw not merely hostile, they are
frightened."
"This administration," replied the
president in a long letter, "came in
to power pledged to a very consider
able legislative program. This basic
program, however, ha3 now reached
substantial completion and the
'breathing spell' of which you speak
is here very decidedly so. I take it
that we are all not merely seeking
but getting, the recovery of confl
dence on the part of the mass of our
population, in the soundness of our
economic life and in our honesty and
Justice of the purposes of its economic
rules and methods."
Time for Breathing Spell.
In good spirits at his regular press
conference at home Mr. Roosevelt
told newspapermen he had about con
cluded work on the legislation of
the last session of congress and indi
cated he was looking forward to the
'breathing spell prescribed for the
nation. Smiling1 away further in
quiry about the fears of businessmen,
he left an impression he would be oc
cupied perhaps for a while in quiet
ing some nerves.
"It Is a source of great satisfac
tion," he wrote to Mr. Howard, "that
at this moment conditions are such
as to offer further substantial and
widespread recovery. Unemployment
is still with us, but it is steadily
diminishing and our efforts to meet
ts problems are unflagging."
Mr. Howard, In his letter of Aug.
6, put a3ide hostility "from financial
racketeers, public exploiters and the
fnisrter forces spawned by special
privilege" as of "slight importance,"
but said that men of "patriotism and !

sense of public service" have become
convinced:
"That you fathered a tax bill that
aims at revenge rather than revenue
revenge on business.
"That the administration has side
stenned broadening the tax base to
the extent necessary to approximate
the needs of the situation.
"That there can be no real recov
ery until the fears of business have
been allayed thru the granting of a
breathing spell to industry, and a
recess rrom runner experimentation
until the country can recover its
losses."
OHIO IS FURTHER DAMAGED
Columbus, O. The elements whip
ped Ohio streams into another frenzy
of destruction, adding thousands of
dollars damage to the millions in
losses caused by last month's disas
trous floods. The Hocking river, ris
ing steadily, swept over hundreds of
acres of farmland in the lower
Hocking valley and threatened to iso
late Athens.
Twenty-three families were made
homeless when muddy waters invaded
their homes at Mineral. Athens coun
ty. Dozens of smaller streams In the
county raged out of their banks, and
numerous highways were inundated.
STATE TAXES CAR LINES
-Governor Cochran met with State
Tax Commissioner Smith and other
members of the state board of tax
ation Thursday and assessed private
car lines which last year paid a tax
of $33,280 direct to the state treas
ury. This tax has been gradually
growing less each year because gaso
line is being transported in-trucks
to greater extent and less in railroad
cars. The state board assesses the
companies on a mileage basis and
value per car combined by fixing a
mileage for each kind of car, Includ
ing refrigerator, stock, tank, fruit,
flat, poultry, coal,' box and furniture
cars. The board adopted the same
average mile basis and valuation
basis used last year. The value of the
cars range from $745 for refriger
ator to $277 for fiat cars, and the
per day mileage from 150 for refrig
erator cars to 50 miles for furniture
cars.
The board took no action on assess
ment of half a dozen interstate bus
companies. Last year depreciation of
cars was fixed by the board 20 per
cent for the second year, 30 percent
for the third year and 40 percent for
the fourth or subsequent years. The
bus companies object to the deduc
tion for the fourth and subsequent
years as being too small. Seven bus
companies last year paid the state a
total tax of a little less than $6,000
They are taxed on the average levy
in the state which was 19 mill3 last
year.
LAD IS DRAGGED TO DEATH
CANADA WANTS NO WAR
Ottawa. Prime Minister Bennett
opened his general election campaign
with an address In which he asserted
Canadians would not be "embroiled

Nebraska's Seven. Million Dollar
Highway Building Program to
Capital This Week.
Spurred by relaxation of WPA la
bor rules, Nebraska and Iowa yester
day were rushing plans for huge
highway building programs to Join in
the WPA drive toward substituting
jobs for relief.
Nearly all of Nebraska's seven million-dollar
highway improvement and
grade separation program under WPA
will be in the hands of Washington
officials by the end of the week. State
Engineer A. C. Tilley said at Lincoln
yesterday.
Approximately half of that sum
will be used for grade separations.
Tilley already has submitted to
Washington about $1,000,000 of
grade separation projects, all of
them providing for relocation of roads
rather than for underpasses and over
passes. The remainder of the railroad
crossing elimination program has
been prepared and was sent to the
United States bureau of public roads
in Omaha yesterday. The list of
projects will not be announced until
they have been approved there.
Tilley also was to send to Omaha
late- yesterday highway improve
ment projects to consume about 75
per cent of the WPA allotment for
this state. These projects also will
be announced after they, are approved
in Omaha. .
A 10 million-dollar road program
in Iowa was launched yesterday by
the state highway commission at
Ames following approval of the first
group of contracts for bridges, cul
verts, paving grading and traveling.
The extensive improvements are em
braced by President Roosevelt's fed
eral aid program.
Low bids, as approved by the high
way commission, will become effec
tive with the sanction of the bureau
of public roads office in Omaha.
