Tells of State Aid Here; Iowa Governor Says Farm Needs Biggest
Richmond, Va., April 25.—(AP)—Governors of half of the states of the Union sped across Virginia to Charlottesville this afternoon to pay tribute to James Monroe after hearing Governor Dan Turner of Iowa, and Governor O. Max Gardner, of North Carolina, discuss the major topic of taxation in farm states and State operation of highways.
Governor Turner, in the opening address of the conference of the governors, said there would be no general return of prosperity in the United States until the purchasing power of the farmer is restored.
Governor Gardner explained the "revolutionary experiment" in North Carolina last year when the State took over maintenance of 45,000 miles of county highways. He said his State had likewise given full support to a six months school term.
