ARTICLE Four
WHEN FORTY MILLIONS PULL
TOGETHER

A savings fund, no matter how 1t
Is acquired, is usually handled in one
of three ways: it may be boarded;
it may be deposited in savings
bank, or it may be invested directly
in some enterprise needing capital
for its development.
When a man hides his cash saw
ings in stocking or stores them
in a safety drawer he is simply
hoarder. This money may have d
potential value to him but il. is Of TO
use to anyone else; ard really it is
of no use to him until he puts it
again into circulation.
This type Of savings often, If not
always, is an injury to society; it
withdraws from active service money
that is needed in many ways by
society for the use and benefit Of all
the people. The value of savings
fund" Is not confined to the man
who owns it. If properly used, it
helps forward the growing partici-
patton of more and more people in
more and more of the good things
in life; in other words, it then be-
comes an instrument Of social prog
ress. !
Savings deposited in savings banks
draw interest. That is, the bank
really borrows the money from the
depositor and pays him for its use
in the form of interest.
When the savings bank account
begins to amount to something worth
while, the idea of investment occurs
to the depositor and he begins 10
look around for some form of in
vestment which will be safe and at
the same time bring him in a larger
return than the bank can afford
to pay. It must also be easily con-
'vertlble into cash and be capable of
use as collateral for loan.
Safe as a Government Bond
At this point it may be that the
question of buying a life insurance
policy is brought to his attention.
For such policy not only meets
the conditions which constitute
good Investment but has other fea-
lures which appeal to men who de-
sire the security of their families
as we'll as a profit on their savings.
A life insurance policy in a rch-
able company is as safe as a govern
men bond. 1t can be paid for in
ins:allments spread over 4 long
period of time A policy having a
cash surrender value is good security
for loan in time of need, it provides
security and independence for the
investors family in case Of his death,
and all the while it helps millions
of other investors in Life Insurance
to build up the general prosperity
OF the country by putting an inn
mense fund Of ready capital to work.
In the service of agriculture, indus
try, transportation, housing, and of
the various governments, national,
state and city
Now, what becomes Of the policy
holders money after it is paid to the
insurance companies? How do the
companies function as trustee for
the hard-earned savings of over
forty millions of our citizens?
Life Insurance companies, like say
ings banks and others trustees of es-
tates, are limited by law as to the
kind of investments they may make.

The factory tells US in reply to
our request for an increased Jewett

preclate the saving in bumpers,
spotlight, automatic windshield
wiper, extra tire and other equip

Vast Mountain Reservoir

This vast aggregation of dollars
is like a mountain reservoir into
which is gathered the springs and
SHOWS and rains from the far ranges,
and from which the waters thus
saved go out to change the deserts
from death to life.
The individual policy-holder by
himself does not cut a tremendous
figure. But hitch him up with forty
million other policy-holders and he
becomes a part of one of the biggest
forces operating in the world
Although the sum saved and paid
into the common fund by each in
dividual could not by itself accom-
plish much, think what it amounts to
when multiplied forty million times
Add to this the fact that it is con-
served and managed by trained and
experienced men, expert in the SCI
ence and art Of investment. Then
recall that these men and their ac-
Invites are under strict government
tai supervision at all times. Through
cooperation there has been devel-
oped a mighty, flowing stream of
economic life bearing upon its.
broad bosom all the institutions and
enterprises that have made possible
the great industrial achievements Of
our civilization
The poliey-holder, when he buys a
life insurance policy to serve and
protect his family is wise investor
and something more. He has be-
. come partner in the greatest of
all cooperative enterprises - one
which protects not only the homes
of the nation, but every institution
upon which the safety of the home
depends.

one hundred percentisms are at best
so much bigotry and at worst hypocricy
and that in either case they are unfor-
tunate for all the interests of religion
and politics.
The heart Of Bishop Browns revo-
lutionary heresies is the contention
that religion and politics are INSOFAR
able halves of the same social reality
that religion consists in the desire and
determination to make the most of
ones own terrestrial life by having it
as long and happy as possible and TO
help others TO do this; that politics
consist in the effort to find the way
to this goal and to walk therein that
this way is paved with facts and
truths; that facts are the doings of
nature and that truths are such facts
so interpreted in the light of human
experience, observation, investigation
and reason as that, If regarded i'm con
duct, they will tend to lengthen the
life which is here now and TO increase
its happiness-the only conscious, per-
sonal existance which we shall have
in which to be either happy or miser-
able.
If his brethren of the House of
Bishops say that he is crazy. he offers
himself to them for examination by
competent alienis.s; and if they say
that II would be as easy for anyone
among them TO answer his booklet as
to kill n fly with a sledge hammer, he
says, 60 ahead and let the first whack
fall on the head of that talking snake

Little Rock Letter

Little Rock, Nov. 26.-The Rt. Rev.
William Montgomery Brown, ID ID. Of
Gallon, Ohio, self-styled Bishop of In
fedility and Socialism, former Bishop
Of the Diocese Of Arkansas, of the
Episcopal church continues to be the
storm-center of one of the most acri-
monious controversies that has been
waged in years. Bishop Brown is con-
demned by his critics as insane, an
archistic and heretical, and he defies
them to prove any one Of the charges.
His booklet quoted Communism and
Christlanism has stirred up hornets
nest Of criticism, even to the extent of
questioning the an hor's loyalty to the
government. That large numbers Of
people profess to be IN full agreement
with the strange conclusions Of this
strange Bishop make the situation all
the more serious.
Bishop Browns herosies cover the
whole field Of the existing social order
both religious and political. lie CON
demns orthodox Christianism because
be claims that it rests upon a system
Of supernaturalistic doctrines which de-
vides the world into warning sects ;
and he condemns 100 per cent Ameri-
canism because he says it rests upon
system of capiialistic laws which
devides the country into warning clas-
ses. owners who do nothing but have
everything, and workers who do every
thing and have nothing. He insists
that all stereotyped or,hodoxism and

political gossip, but II is expected to
break out in virulent form soon after
he holidays. There has been no new
prospect for governor for several
weeks, and it is not definitely known
whether McRae will be a candidate for
a third term. II is well known that
Governor McRae is very anxious TO
round out his administrator with his
taxation program. This contemplates
the eventual removal of tax from prop
erty and its transfer to profits and
privileges. The governor contends
that the adoption of this plan will en-
able the schools and all departments
Of government to function more effic-
iently and at minimum expense TO
the people. If this program can be
adopted through the medium Of an ex-
ira session of the legislature, the gov
ernor might he willing to retire. If II
cannot be done many Of his friends be-
lieve that he would ask for another
term to give him another opportunity
for securing what he considers a most
important reform.

trouble through which il has been pas

Not only has Bishop Brown offered
these two challenges to his brethren,
but he also offers TO voluntarily re-
sign, if they will place themselves ON
record as believing the representations
of the Bible, literally interpreted, con
cerning the creation of Adam and Eve /:
the planting of the Garden of Eden (;
the fall of Adam and Eve and its
effects; the birth of Jesus Christ His
death and descent TO hell His resur-
rection and ascension into heaven. and
His second coming to raise all deceas-
ed men, women and children from the
dead and to judge and send them to
hell or heaven; or, again, he offers to
resign, if they win appoint three Of
their members who will hold an open
discussion with him and two helpers
concerning the religious heresies of his
b0okle. before three equitably selected
judges, If at the end, two of them join
in the opinion that he Is wrong in his
contention that orthodox Christianism
and orthodox scientism are not ire
concilably opposed to each other as to
the creation, fall and redemption of
man.
Bishop Brown receives many visitors
from neighboring towns, as many as
fifteen on some days, and often he has
stop-over visits from travellers from
distant parts Of the country and even
from foreign countries. His booklet is
now translated and published in eight
European languages and other trans
lations are being made. He facetious-
ly says, These visitors come to see
how crazy l am" He is receiving en-
couraging and discouraging letters
daily, he thanks about one hundred of
the former to one of the latter which
are mostly unsigned.
Within a few months two journal
lists and one psychologist have visited
him to obtain data for the writing of
biological sketches. The latest will ap-
pear in the December issue Of Hearst's

For the first time in the history Of
evangelism, radio broadcasting has been
adopted by evangelist Charles Reign
Scoville, who is holding six weeks
meeting in the tabernacle erected at
18th and Main Streets, in this city.
An instrument with range OF 1900
miles radius was installed early in the
meeting and now the entire service,
songs, prayers sermons aud exOrta-
ti0ns are broadcast over an area cover
Ing practically the entire United
States. Reports have been received
Of the services being heard in places
as widely separated as Buffalo. n. Y.
and Denver, Colo. The government
assigned the station, KFMB. a wave
length Of 254 meters. This viii enable
anyone with receiving set to listen
in on one Of the greatest evangelistlc
campaigns in the history of Arkansas.
The frs three weeks Of invitation
brought more than GOO converts for
ward and II is expected that there will
be in excess Of 1900 by Nie close Of
the meeting. While DIR. Scoville is
holding the meeting in the interest OF
the Christian churhes of the city, the
converts may place their membership
with any church they desire More

members Of the Baptist, Methodist,
Presbyterian or other denominations.
The meetings are attended by record
breaking congregations, and the sun
