DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK?
By Edson II. Waite, Shawnee, Oklahoma
Recently I have received many letters from edi
In mv own mind I knew that about all states, as
about Governor Alf M. Landon, of Kansas, the man
who won world-wide attention by both reducing taxes
and balancing the budget. WeL, if I told all the good
things I have heard about him, it would fill a book in
stead of a short column.
Last summer I drove to Minnesota, via Kansas
and Iowa. Naturally, I called on newspaper men on
route. In about every office I called on in Kansu- I
saw a large picture of Governor Landon on the wall,
and everyone I met told me what a great state Kansas
is and what a grand man Governor Landon is. In fact,
I heard so much about balancing budgets and reduc
ing taxes that I decided to stop at Topeka and inter
view the Governor.
well as the national government, were trying to see
tors and readers in the East, asking me what I know
how much they could spend at the expense of the tax
payer, instead of how much they could save for the
taxpayer. Full of doubts I called first at the office of
the State Accountant, who proved to me that the
state had over a million dollars on hand at the close of
the last fiscal year. Taxes were reduced and the bud
get was balanced. I went into that office with a doubt
in my mind; I came out satisfied that what I thought
impossible had been proved possible.
Then I called on the Governor. I found him one
of the most pleasing, courteous, business men I have
ever met. I asked him some rather pointed questions
as to any political ambitions he might have. In a quiet,
unassuming manner he told me some of the many pro
blems that had to be solved and something more about
the glories of Kansas. The Governor seemed more in
terested in the problems of the business man. the farm
er and the laborer than he was in any political pro
blems.
Governor Landon is an efficient executive who
has done his best to be a good governor of Kansas. He
has made good at the job. That is why he is one of the
most talked of men in America today. Kansas is a won
derful state and has in Governor Landon a man who
has worked wonders._
