Sawyer Says Davey Asked New Taxes
A political column notes Charles Sawyer charging Gov. Martin Davey with seeking tax increases while denying new taxes under his term. It recalls a 1937 bill for a one cent gasoline tax and contrasts campaign rhetoric with legislative refusals. The piece also covers campaign events in Columbus and a radio interview during a period of broader political debate.

Cat Mother Adopts Turkeys On Pennsylvania Farm
A Maltese mother cat on H. A. Steelman's farm in Butztown, Pennsylvania, has taken in a brood of young turkeys. The cat reportedly nursed the chicks and introduced them to her new kittens, with the mixed brood appearing to coexist. The note adds a separate statistic stating the British Isles population was about ten million at the time of American independence.
