Gordon reported to yesterday that a roughly man to whom gave a ride near Mineral City, held him up between Akron and Canton and then robbed him of $88 and his car and tied him to a tree. Department of justice agents in Cleveland said that the federal kidnaping law does not apply unless the victim is taken across a state line.

Police Chief Frank Boss of Akr'on received a note yesterday which said: "Turn right at first road on Canton Rd, by church and find a man tied to tree."

PRESIDENT SAYS EFFORT TO HELP TRUE FUNCTION (Continued from Page 1) human rights those farmer patriots sought to win when they stood at the bridge at Concord, when they proclaimed the declaration of independence, and when they pertion petuated of the these ideals constitution. by the adop- but principles go on, and I have "Methods and machinery change. faith that no matter what attempts may be made to tear it down, the principle of farm equality expressed by agricultural adjustment will not die." Mr. Roosevelt recalled he saw "farmers threshing 30-cent wheat and shelling 20-cent corn" when he visited Nebraska three years ago "and, most disheartening of all, thousands of farmers were losing their homes by foreclosure." "Three years ago I did not promIse the millenium for agriculture," he said.

"But I did promise that I should attempt to meet the situation in every way that human effort and ingenuity made possible. "Coming back to you after three years, I experience the extreme pleasure of recognizing that the cooperative efforts in which the farmers themselves, the congress and the administration have engaged, have borne good fruit." Debt Lightened He said it was true the burden of agricultural debt had not been eliminated but it had been "decisively and definitely lightened." Since May, 1933, he said, half a million farmers had borrowed more than $1,800,000,000 through the farm credit administration and with farm mortgage interest "the lowest in history," more than. 850,000 farmers were saving more than $55,000,000 this year on interest alone.

That makes a total increase of $5,300,000,000 over what the farmer's income would have been if the 1932 level had been continued, "It is surprising, in the light of improved income, that the farm implement factories in Illinois and New York and the automobile factories of Michigan, and the steel mills of Pennsylvania, are springing into activity.

Is it any wonder that smoke is pouring once from el imneys long smolteless? Is it any wonder that workers long without regular jobs are going back to work? Now, with export surpluses no longer pressing down on the farmer's welfare, and with fairer prices, farmers really have a chance for the first time in this generation to profit from improved methods."
