The Old-Age Pension

During the next decade or so the subject Of old-age
pensions will come in for a lot more attention in
America than it has ever had before. That is putting
it mildly. of course, for It has hardly had any atten-
ton at all so far: but in a few years it will be arousng
a lot of discussion.
People are beginning to realize that the community
has a certain responsibility in respect to the support
Of the aged. Nevertheless, an old-age pension Of any
consequence is bound to be highly expensive.
For instance: the Massachusetts, legislature is now
considering an old-age pension bill which. If passed,
would add a considerable load to the states budget
Yet it calls for payments Of only IS a week TO men
over IS and women over 90.
II Massachusetts passes this bill it will be doing a
liberal thing. Yet IS is not a very stable income, any
way you look at II.

The Gangs Break Loose

Apparently that peace pact which the chicago
gangs fixed up a month or so ago didn't have enough
teeth in it. Maybe it failed because underworld psy-
chology isn't quite ready for a super-state yet. and
maybe the boys just naturally didn't take it seriously:
at any rate, the machine guns are swinging again,
and the casualty list is resuming the proportions OF
the good old days.
So ends Chicagos breathing space, amid a ~clatter
OF fire. arms. Dead bodies are being found beside
lonely roads once more. and firing squads are on the
prowl again; the police are finding known gangsters
immersed in their own gore, and this. that or the 9TH
er murder. All in all, the city at the foot Of Lake
Michigan seems to have slipped back to normal; and
people who like to be driven TO alarm by these violent
outbursts on the part Of our urban civilization have
at hand the material for a new fit Of the heebee-
1eebies.
We're pretty well used to our big-city gangs now.
and they don't worry or shock us they used to; never
theless. there's one bit Of foggy thinking that these
killings usually bring out. and we might as well take
the time to get straight on il.
This particular bit OF irrationality is a reflection
that generally runs something like this: after all, it is
only the ~gangsters that get killed. Each Of these out
bursts simply removes from circulation a citizen whom
we can very well do without. Why get worried? Isn't
1t, in the long run. to societys interest to have these
yeggs put one another out Of the way?
On the surface, that looks reasonable. But 1t isn't
the whole story.
Every gangland killing simply entrenches the gangs
more firmly in power. Every time one group of cut
Threats machine guns a rival group. it merely con-
vinces every member of the underworld that he and
his kind are beyond the reach Of organized society
as represented by the police and the courts. Every
underworld murder establishes the chiefs of gang
land, more securely than ever before, as a law unto
themselves.
For these reasons it is impossible for society to de-
rive any satisfaction out Of this string Of murders.
These killings are nothing but the g~angsters' way
- --H.- --1 49, 49,. -s.-, e --.- - -
siety unmolested. There is a new recruit to take the
place Of every hoodlum that gets bumped off. When
we try TO tell ourselves that we needn't be alarmed
because one more beer-runner has been shot to death
we are just kidding ourselves-in a very dangerous
way.

The United States Senate is the

platforms are made by parties and
parties nominate candidates on
those platforms. Who writes the

leaders in their various states.
Therefore the Importance OF
having as many senator's from a

The Once Over
ELMER TwITCHELL DELIVERS A
BACCALAUREATE
BY r. I. PHILLIPS
Copyright, 1880, BY The Associated Newspapers)


Gentlemen Of the graduating class: You are as
sembled under these elm today for the last time be-
fore going forth to fight the battle OF life. That some
OF you are at last graduating will come as a distinct
surprise to your folks, but their real troubles will be-
gin now that they are to have you back on their
hands again.
This is a serious moment. No one knows what the
future holds, If anything. for you young men. This
is probably just as well.
some OF you will become leaders in the Industrial
industrial world, some will achieve distinction in the
professions, one or two will lead a radio orchestra and
popularze a song about drinking mugs; but the great
majority Of you will get no place in particular.
Looking into your faces this morning, I seem to see
that the percentage Of material for life-guards. bond
statesmen and automobile demonstrators Is unusually
high. With courage and perseverance-stop me II
Won have heard this one-man can accomplish any
thing. Life is what you make 1t. A good name IS
rather to be chosen than two in the bush. After all,
no one can ever take the place Of mother. Am 7 too
deep for you?
"As YOU look back over your years in college-and
for most Of you this calls for telescope vision-what
do YOU find this university has given you? What?
And again what? Write your answers clearly, using
only side Of the paper, an inclose ten cents in stamps.
You came here as mere boys with your thinking pro-
cesses uI.developed and unframed. Nothing you have
experienced here during the past four years has
changed you in this respect, but I am proud TO say
that the class Of 1880 has never been excelied in the
matter Of rumble-seat petting. the whistling Of popu-
lar songs and a lively appreciation Of the less subtle
movies.
your alma mater has striven to give you certain
ideals Of living. to create a vision Of life which shall
better fit you for coping with the problems Of a busy
world. If we have failed, your attention is called to
the rule that any complaints Of inattention be re-
ported to the management. II We have succeeded. 1t
will be a great blow TO the faculty. If you are I'M
certain whether we have succeeded or not, let us drop
the subject and go on with our story.
In a few short hours you will have departed from
this great university bearing a diploma testifying 70
the completion Of a college course. There will be
MANY times in life when you will wish you could
swan it for a low automobile number, a letter from a
political boss or a marriage license admitting you into
a family with lots Of money. Still. it Is a nice thing
to have and with few exceptions you are in luck to
get it.
Gentlemen Of the graduating class. with these few
words I wish YOU Godspeed in your journey through
life. May fortune attend you. In parting. let me re-
mind YOU to close the gates as you leave the univer-
sitv. to send your tailor a check and TO remember
that the railroad management forbids the leaving OF
~suitcases and golf bags in the aisle"
