en-. Mr.. McDonough said:
There is no issue greater or more
important especially in our factories
where men have climbed the hill Of
life. reached its summit and are now
travelling down the last long
stretch. than the old age pension
bill. Our treatment Of dumb ami
mails under the law is more ad-
vanced than our treatment Of hui
man beings. The owner OF a horse
which has rendered a lifetime of
service is not permitted to take him
from the harness and drive him into
the street to starve: that poor old
dumb animal is led out to green
pastures and there. in appreciation
Of the service he has rendered, he
Is cared for.
