OLD AGE PENSION

One of the questions, ana it IS an
important one, to be Voted on III
Ohio this November will be the pro-
posed old age pension. We note that
sufficient signers have placed their
names to the petition, in order to
submit it to a vote. We doubt II
many of our voters realize the mag
nitude of the question involved, and
the enormous increase in taxes which
would result if this issue should car
~. 1t is stated that the Ohio Fed
GRAFTON of Labor and the Fraternal
Order of Eagles drew up this pro
posed old age pension bill. We be-
lieve that the arguments against this
bill are stronger than those in its
favor. 1t would mean that taxes
would have to be increased enor-
mouSly, and these taxes would come
from an already overtaxed citizen
ship, large proportion of whom
have no better, if as good opportun-
ity, for accumulating property, than
the candidates for the proposed pen
sion have had. Again, its estab-
lishment would have decided
tendency to do away with personal
savings, thus permitting thousands
of our citizens to become wards of
the state, and they would rear their
children with the same ultimate
refuge in view. There is enough
laziness and Indifference now, good
ness knows, among those able to
work, and with such a law we be-
Don't understand us to be op-
posed to honest pensions. We have
always been for them. We favored
and supported the soldiers bonus
bill of the state; also favored the
national bonus which was vetoed by
President Harding, and we are for
the increasing. Of Civil war soldiers
pensions. and those of their widows.
We favor them because we look
upon such pensions with respect, be-
cause they, carry with them the idea
of faithful service rendered for our
state and nation, which cannot be
repaid in coin.
On the other hand the acceptance
of purely an old age pension is pub
lie charity, for the recipient having
no property has contributed nothing
to the carrying on or the preserva-
tion of our government. To pass
such a law would really put the
sanction of the state ON waste and
public charity.

they were doing, and the house was
almost ready to fall in when they
ESCAPED from it. The funeral was
held Sunday p. m.
And then Sunday morning an
other shock came when word was
received that Helen Stevens was
burned to death Saturday evening,
by gas explosion in the cellar

cherries to show her grandmother.
She lived until 4 o'clock Sunday
morning. The funeral held Tuesday

With the price of wheat away

the price of bread come along? One
baker says he can't put the price

D. C. FIRE PREVENTION
WEEK TO BE PLANNED

The committee named by the Com
missioners to stage a Fire Prevention
week in Washington from October z
to 13 will hold it's first meeting in
the rooms of the Chamber of Com
merce at 1890 o'clock Monday, Chair
man Charles w. Darr announced to-
day.
Edward Pierce, chief clerk of the
fire department, will be secretary of
the committee and David j. Barry
has been appointed treasurer.
Mr.. Darr said today that he would
try this year to arouse Washington
as 1t has never been aroused before
to the value of preventing fires in
stead of trying to stop them after
they start.
Washington had a heavy fire loss
last winter, including destruction OF
a considerable amount of government
property said Mr.. Darr, which
should spur our people to make Pre-
vention week this year a period of
real activity toward the elimination
Of fire hazards"
Mr. Darr will recommend to his
committee that it again send out to
the business men and private house
holders the questionnaire used last
year This question sheet was pre-
pared with a view to calling to the
attention of every one the ordinary
fire causes that lurk in cellars, attics
and other dark corners of the house.
