Rural Carriers Mutual Benefit Associa-

To the Rural Mail Carriers of North
Carolina:
At a recent meeting of the Union
County r. F. d. Association held IN
Monroe. resolutions were offered fav-
oring the organization of Society
to be known as The Rural Mail Car
riers Mutual Benefit Association, tor
the purpose of giving life insurance
to Rural Carriers at exact cost. The
resolutions were discussed and adopt
ed by a unanimous vote OF the local
organization.
We believe that no set of men need
insurance more, from the fact that
all who have others dependent upon
them for support, must have learned
ere this that they cannot create an
estate out of their salary in the mail
service sufficient to keep the wolf
from the door of their home for
twelve months in case of early death.
Besides this, the Rural Carrier is
exposed to all kinds and conditions
of weather, which makes him much
more liable to contract some fatal dl-
sease and leave his loved ones to the
cold charity of an uncharitable
world. Now at such a time every
man in the service in North Carolina
could, without feeling it very much,
contribute one dollar, which would
create a fund approximating one
thousand dollars, and this sum to
the bereaved family would be veri-
table God-send.
There are many things in favor of
this plan of insurance for carriers.
1t is cheap, and there is little danger
of lapses. No medical examination
is necessary from the fact that every
man who enters the service must
stand a medical examination, besides
| the fact of his doing his work is suf
fcient eveidence that he is physi
| cally strong.
There is less danger of the num-
bers decreasing than in most insur-
ance companies from the fact that
as soon as man in the service dies
| another takes his place.
Of course there is no law in the
land to compel every man to join an
association of this kind. but it is not
likely that many who have a family
dependent upon their labor would
refuse
l would be glad to outline a plan
covering the whole ground; but I
fear that to do so would be asking
more space than the editor of our
organ can accord this article.
Let us bring this matter before
each county organization, and be
ready to lay some plan along this
line before our State meeting at
Asheville on the 18th of July.
I would be pleased to hear directly
from any organization or Individual
on this most important subject.

Statement of Political

 Buda Peeth. Hungary. May 27.-The existing political trouble in Hungary, which is in substance contest between crown and parliament, arouses limit. ed amount of interest in so far as It sffects, in one way or another. the in- ternal affairs of Hungary or the minor relations of the component parts of the dual monarchy, Austria and Hungary, but when 1t begins to threaten the mutual existence. as national unIty, of the dual monarchy, the matter then assumes a much broader importance and wider interest. The possibility ot the establishment in central Europe or an independent state, with treaty max ing powers, must be reckoned with as important in its possible. effect on the present states of Central Europe ana 1t is not without its important politlcal bearing on the complex situation wnicn centers In the Balkan Peninsula, TOT Hungary borders on Bosnia, oerVia, Roumania and Russia, and there IS reason to believe she would not pc averse should she become free state to Russian influence in the Balkans or at Constantinople.
