that four more f.ate Rhode Island, j

king it out of t'ue
ng
den sshouid be borne by state gov
ernments, Hopkins said that If re
lief v.-ere left to the smaller political
subdivisions the "whole load fails on
real estate."
"Since lfj2rj," he- Eaid, "citie3 and
counties have taken it on the chin.
For two years they had the whole
burden. Taxes on real estate should
not be the sole source of revenue for
these burdens that are hound-to con
tinue for a long time to come."
Asked what kind of taxes he pre
ferred. Hopkins s:.id, "Anything but
the F.ale- tax. I Just don't happen to
like the sales tax because it is a di
rect tax on your income."
Told that the Kansas constitution
forbids contributions Ujt reli'-f, the
administrator commented, ".veil, a
good many slate.-j have changed their
constitutions in the laj-t few years.
I can think of Texas right offhand."
The discussion was opened when a re
porter asked Hopkins about the
"presidential boom you have started
for the Karmas republican."
Hopkins replied that administra
tion of relief "requires the co-operation
of the cities, counties and
states. Tha one thing I am inter
ested in is to see that the people
who have no part of the national in
come from private industry get what
they need, and at the name time to
protect the national treasury."

Ta Li tu
a hen
more convenient day.
When thinking of the bounty the
losing Father testowE,
Hakes ever, the most tenlient
fceatter thoughts of how it
grows.
The garden that grows the red
tomatoes so juicy and un
alloyed. When Lliced upon the table no
appiute can void.
And the Lttle white radish, Its
top so dainty and green.
The like of which was never re
produce! upon the modern
fccretn.
Th'; rhubarb that Eilently grow,
in a very secluded spot.
That makes the most delie:ou3
p:;3 utea out of the oveu
hot.
And strawberries all fovcred
with cream in a bowl,
WouM make the Ia?.s of hygiene
hide behind a scroll.
The orchard with its applc-s, of
beauty and golden glow.
Holds the onlooker in a trance,
as he tees how they grow.
Breaking the limbs so heavy la
den, with such delicious
fruit.
To gladden, the hearta of all
mankind, with their flavors
Just to suit.
O the peaches I remember, tow
v,e dried them In the sun.
Made them Into butter; which to
me was great fun.
Also preserved a generous posi
tion, packed away in gla:-:3
Jars.
Would v. het the appetite of an
Eftronomer who delights to
gaze at the stars.
So when the leaves of the trees
are scattered all around.
Withe-red and cried and terribly
shattered piled in heap3
upon the ground.
You may know that time for
fruitage r.aa thu3 teen
duly staid.
Until the Hand or the eternal
order another to be made.
There 13 a Tree in the garden,
which i3 a perennial plant.
It's leaves never fade nor the
sun's rays, upon it slant,
For its fruitage comes, in abun
dance from above,
It never varies in time nor sea
son, for its fruit i3 eternal
love.
The copious showers of bless
ings, that corne to refresh
us all.
Are not Been by worm-wood,
hatred uor the bitter sense
of gall,
The Iiitt?r-sweet forms its dainty
tendrils, v. he-re the Ja.sa
mine buds and bloom.
However Love fills the hearts of
those, who are willing to
give it ample room.
