Old Book Agent Game

Sebastian Belsco and Dominick
Forte reported to Captain Tuite, of
the detective bureau, that they had
been swindled by guest Of the Con-

stated that they had responded to
an advertisement in a local paper
calling for agents. They went to
room No. 4 in the hotel, and when
they visited the advertiser he de-
manded a deposit from each.

were to receive 81 a day, but a de-
posit was demanded from each.

HAMILL, DURING HOUSE DEBATE, HEARS
CIVIL SERVICE PATERNALISM' DEFINED

try to be commonsensically logical
and define paternalism."
The man from Texas declared that
his idea of paternalism was: I'VE
have civil service employees in my
district, and in yours, who do not
want to give UP pleasures to save
for rainy day. These employees
want the government to tell them to
keep on having a good time, to get
jags and to go to shows. and not be
alarmed, because the government will
take care of them when they can no
longer look out for themselves. Con-
gresham Hamill replied that that
was not the attitude of the average
employee. That man cannot hold his
place long If he acted that way. Then
he went on to show how it was good
policy to provide pensions. and gave
instances of its successful operation
among big corporations.
