Old Age Pensions

BY Old Age Pensioners.
We have talked to the old age
pensioners from different parts Of
Indiana and their feeling is at a
high pitch against any political
party reducing their pay and refus-
ing to give to them their legal
rights, which the past legislature
gave to them and is on the statute
books of Indiana.
The present party, in campaign
speeches, agreed to make things so
an old person could have COM
Portable living. Now let them make

Putting It Up to Mars

1T is my belief that as soon as it
4 becomes possible to import a mes
Senger from Mars this dispasSionate
observer will report that the plays
written by living Americans. from
ONeill up and down. are of little
consequence, but that Broadway has
managed to achieve the finest
popular musical shows devised upon
this planet. The messenger from Mars
even may say the finest in the uni
verse" I wouldn't know. It ali de-
ponds upon the problem Of whether
other celestial bodies can offer any
performer like this Miss Ethel
Waters.
The visiting critic from across the
stellar spaces would be quite correct
in contending that las Thousands
Cheer" is a far more sensitive inter
probation of American life than
Mourning Becomes Electra" ever
was
Americans are shy and diffident
people. Except, of course, on trains
and steamers and in hotels and
bars. We apologize for those cul-
tural elements of our homeland
which are the best of all, and in
stead of boasting of such things as
st. Louis Blues" odd Man River"
and Mickey Mouse" we try to in
! tereSt Europeans in the architecture
of the First National Bank of
Paducah, KY, which was modelled
after an old French chateau! We
talk of Eugene O'Neill to intelligent
cosmopoliteS who would much
rather hear something about Irving
Berlin.
The BrOadlCay Missionaries
DUT the pity of it is that Mr..
- Berlin and his associate. Sam
H. Harris, have begun to 20 arty on
us. The first thing you know they
will be gingerbreading the show
shop in Theatre Guild. At the mo-
ment this evil tendency is no bigger
than a mans hand holding a tiger
lily. I am speaking of the recogni-
ton and house room which Berlin
and Harris have given to an alien
thing called modern dancing" It
is the camels head within the tent,
and unless the customers rise up in
protest we will get the whole damn
dromedary.
Theatrical managers in New York
are insufficiently commercial. Any
one OF them will fall if a young man
in a green smock and an aggressive
smile comes into the office and SAYS,
But you understand, Sam, this is
! something different" They are all
hereticS in the belief that there is
some necessary virtue in variation.
The ShubertS lie awake at nights
trying to think up something they
can do to induce Stark Young to
write pleasant piece about them in
the New Republic
1 can see no other explanation for
the epidemic during the last few
years Of Albertina Raasch dancers,
Agnes De Mile dancers and Charles
Weidman dancers. If Johnny Boyle,
Bobby Connolly or Bob Alton had
an opportunity to put on rousing
tap routine in Moscow or in Athens
he would be hailed as an exponent
Of significant art form. But be-
cause the chorus routines which
have become familiar are distinctly
native we can not realize their ar
tistic integrity.

Life Insurance Companies
Pay Out Three Billions

button o. money" Mr.. Law said,
the life insurance companies placed
in the mail checks for an average
of about 100000 a day through
out the year. If we were to include
loans to policyholders, the daily av-
erage of payments would still be
larger.
Two things enabled the institu-
ton of life insurance to make these
unprecedented payments and at the
same time increase their assets by
more than a third of a billion dol
lars.
"One of them is sound manage
ment. In the interest of safety, the
companies Intentionally underesti-
mate their earnings and overesti-
mate the amounts they will be
called upon to pay in death benefits.
That leaves a margin of safey to
meet unusual demands such as
those of this year.
THE other is the very nature of
life insurance. The constant flow
of premiums as well as receipts
from investments is sufficient to
permit these gigantic payments
without forcing the sale of Secur-
tiles. Not only that, but even in
1888, the companies were able to
add a third of a billion dollars to
their assets which now total more
than $21 900 100000.
