The Campaign Front Taylor Busy on Program For Willkie Visit Oct. 4 By PAUL WALKER M. Harvev Tavlor. county chairman, who is in full charge of the Willkie Day celebration in Harrisburg on Octo ber 4 is arranging a route from train to platform that will "permit as many people as possible to see the next of the United States." The route will be along Market street to Market Square, north in Second to State, east to the platform to be erected on the State street steps of the Capitol. Willkie will ride in an open Who'll ride with him? That is a problem to be worked out later.

Mrs. Willkie for one. Who's going to introduce him? From an authentic source there comes the report that Chairman Taylor, who also happens to be a candidate for State Senate, will ask Governor James to do the honors. At the moment Taylor and his assistants are working with the Pennsylvania Railroad officials for special trains to bring Republicans to Harrisburg from many points. Democrats hereabouts aren't sure whether or not President Roosevelt will speak here during the campaign, think that he "might possibly stop on his way to the dedication of the Pennsylvania Turnpike." Mayor LaGuardia of New York, will speak here in October he in formed Mayor Milliken during the conference of Mayors in New York last week.

"I'll be out your way to make a speech for Roosevelt in October," LaGuardia told Milliken. "We'll be glad to have you as a visitor," the Mayor said, "But you know almost everybody in Harrisburg is for Willkie." "Everybody?" "Well, almost everybody." Just as peace and harmony seemed to be settling down over the ranks of the Democrats, an appointment comes along to start things going all over again, judging from comments headed in this direction. The Faeer Democrats are un in arms over the appointment of Mrs. Cloyd E. Wilson as acting oost mistress of Highspire, asserting that "that putting too many jobs in one family." Mr.

Wilson has an important post in the WPA executive staff. One recalled that until a few months ago a daughter worked for the State Treasury. What has the Pagerites upset is that it's purely a Guffey appointment. There's nothing odd about this. Mr.

and Mrs. Wilson have always been loyal supporters of Senator Guffey, have worked faithfully in the ranks of the party and have always done well any work assigned to them. One Fagerite said: "Putting too many jobs in one family is like putting all your eggs in one basket. This won't help any when election comes along." It would appear that the Fager group had some bne else in mind for the Highspire appointment apparently some one, who could not get the endorsement of Clarence D. Moretz, the county chairman, or Ramsey S.

Black, the third assistant Postmaster General. It is rumored that Democratic Chairman Moretz may get his appointment to a Federal position any day now. Up Capitol Hill way, it would seem that the Democratically controlled departments are adding them on while those under the Republican banner are takinp thorn off. And iust this minute. there came a call to the effect that "100 more are to go Friday." Tax Office Open T.

A. Crowley, Steelton tax collector, said that he will IroAn Vtie office open in the Municipal Build ing inursaay ana nights, to collect county and school taxes. A 5 per cent, penalty will be added to the school tax, October 1, and 5 per cent, discount on county taxes will end at the same time. Catholic Council St Ann's Unit, National Council of Catholic Women, meets at St. Ann's Hall, Steelton, tomorrow night at 7.30 with Mrs.

Fred Bruno in charge. Mrs. Ralph Harr, has returned to her home at 528 Market street, Lemoyne. after a vacation trio of ten days to Camp Perry, Ohio. 'AID" SOUGHT yt" Los Angeles police are holding William Senior, 19, of Reading, after thgy said he attempted to obtain $9500 from Film Actress Ginger Rogers.

They quoted Senior as saying he only wanted a loan to pay off a mortgage on his mother's home having heard that Miss Rogers gives financial assistance to young people eager for stage or screen careers. Senior played with a Reading orchestra. At Reading, the boy's mother said he always had been a great admirer of Miss Rogers and she was sure he meant no harm to her. Auto Taking Baby to Hospital Skids An automobile carrying a baby to the Polyclinic Hospital for treatment last night skidded in the 2500 block North Sixth street and crashed into the parked automobile of Frank B. Neff, 2464 Reel street.

The driver of the skidding auto was Marlin L. Fickes, 1810 North Sixth street, police said. He reported that he was taking Ronald Conrad, 7 months, 620 Delaware street, to the hospital when the baby seemed to be choking while coughing. With them was Ronald's father, W. A.

Conrad. The trip was completed in a borrowed auto. The baby was treated and taken home.

25, (Pennsylvania farmers are far ahead of time in repaying loans made by the Farm Security Administration, Claude R. Wickard, new United States Secretary of Agriculture, told an audience of State College students, instructors and farmers last night. The FSA has loaned more than $3,000,000 to 5000 Penn sylvanians, Wickard reported in an address following a day of conferences, and added: "Well over half a dollars has been repaid by these borrowers, although most of it would not have fallen due for several years." He credited the Farm Security program als with having "made a start in combating the growing evil of farm tenancy in Pennsylvania." The average family aided by the program has boosted its net income by more than 26 per Wickard said. The Agriculture Secretary credited the triple A program for farm aid, and the food stamp system of distributing surplus commodities to families on relief, with having helped to increase Pennsylvania farmers' cash income from $177,000,000 in 1932 to $265,000,00 last year.
