|NSURANCECASE
WON YOUTH
IN COURT

Holding that a contract Of in
Surance is not a necessity for an
infant, the District Court Of Ap-
peals ruled today that the infant
| might repudiate the contract be-
fore reaching his majority and
recover premiums paid by him.
The decEion was made in the
case Of Mutual Life Insurance
Co. Of New York, against Harry
Schiavone, the infant. In De-
cember 1881, the court recited,
the infant made an application
for q $25, 900 policy and disclosed
his age as 10. The policy was Is
sued and 1896 was paid in prem
iums. Shortly thereafter his
father, q bank president, died, the
youth lost his employment and,
repudiating his contract year
later, demanded return Of the
premiums.
In a suit filed against the in
surance company in Municipal
Court q judgment Of 1886 was
rendered in favor of the youth.
The insurance company sought to
have the verdict set aside on the
ground the contract was a neceS-
Sity and the company should be
reimbursed for the cost of carry
ing the insurance risk. The court
held there was no merit to the
claims.
In a dissenting opinion, Chief
Justice Martin declared the youth
carried the policy a year before
repudiating it and should not be
permitted to recover the entire
amount of the premiums. The
youth was represented by At
torneys Henry A. Schweinhaut
and J. Joseph Sheehan.

NJ SWAIN To ASK
PWA FUND To
BUILD ARMY
By WILLIAM S. NEAL
International News Service

Declaring that the nation must
be prepared to meet all foes, Rep
resentative John j. McSwain CD
Of South Carolina chairman of
the House Military Affairs Com.
mittee, today announced he will
seek 100 million dollars from the
new Public Works fund to expand
the Army.
Most of the money would be
spent in building the Army Air
Force to new high point of eff.
cheney.
Only 300 Planes
His program would include:
Construction of seven new Army
air bases, from which defense of
the. continental United. States
could be directed.
Building of an adequate reserve
supply of munitions for all
branches.
Increase Of enlisted personnel
from 1880 to 165,OOO men.
While Representative McSwain
declined to reveal the location of
the proposed Army Air Corps
bases, it is understood that mill
tary experts favor three on the
Atlantic Coast, three on the
Pacific and one in Alaska.
Navy Held Adequate
The combined Army, Navy and
Marine Corps air forces, Repre-
sentative McSwain said, should
equal any possible combination
of invaders. He added:
with a Navy equal to the
best in the world, and with an
air defense also equal, we
ought to feel reasonably safe
against invasion.
"In view Of that only slight
increase in the regular Army
is necessary. Before an invad-
ing. foe could break through
the Navy air defense, we would
have time to organize enough
men to prevent a widespread
invasion.
"Our policy is purely defen-
sive. / don't believe the Amer.
lean people and Congress will
ever consent to fight another
war beyond the seas"

Faber, and Mrs. Rose Faber
father and mother Of the 24-year
old defendant, would take the

He said the defense would show

Of the family tree.
The first defense witness, Prof.
Myron S. Huckle, Of MaSSachu'
sets Institute of Technology,
from which Faber was graduated,
testified to the high regard he
felt for Faber as a student.

There is some disagreement among the new dealers
themselves as to the future of the Republican party. Mr..
Farley, chairman of the Democratic National committee,
after the election gave out a statement which indicated
his belief that the Republican party is dead. With this be
lief no less a new deal parsonage than Prof. Raymond
Motley, advisor extraordinary to the administration, takes
sharp issue. Prof. Moley, writing in Time, says that "The
Democrat who talks glibly of the end of the Republican
party is simply ignoring the facts"
We are inclined to agree with Prof. Moley despite the
authority of Mr.. Farey's long political training. In the
recent election the Republicans cast AZ per cent of the to-
tai vote, which was a greater percentage than it cast in
1882. 1t is true that the new dealers now have a ~two-thirds
majority in both branches of congress, but it is equally
true that a few thousand votes, distributed here and there
ON election day could have materially changed the results.
Let us consider a few of the middle western states
which, until 1892, were the very cornerstone of the Repub-
Ican party. The Democrats swept Missouri, yet they cast
CO per cent of the total vote as against 90 per cent in 1882.
In Iowa they cast "a per cent as against 80 per cent in
1882. In Indiana they cast 50 per cent as against 90 per
cent two years ago. In other states the percentages were
Nebraska Sc as against Ga; South Dakota SO as against 65;
North Dakota 81 as against d.
In the two radical states of Wisconsin and Minnesota
the comparisons are startling. In Minnesota the Demo
Gratis cast but 80 per cent of the total vote as against 81 per
cent in 1882. In Wisconsin they cast but 26 per cent as a
gainst 81 per cent. The reason for this is, of course, the
tremendous gains made by the Farmer-Labor party in
Minnesota and the Progressive party in Wisconsin.

THE FARMER rs GYPPED

O.P. Williams, a farmer of Plattsburg, Mo-, took out his
pencil to find out what AAA had done for him. After his
corn and hog allotment had been chiseled down he was en-
titled to draw $2,392.80 from the government. The gov
eminent collected in processing taxes on his corn-hog OPP
erations $2,728.75. The government therefore took 1885,
.95 more from him than he will get back when the govern
ment finally gets around to paying the farmers all it owes
them on their contracts.
In Clinton county, Mo, the farmers who signed up are
to receive 100000 in benefits, but are paying a total of
more than $457,O0O in processing taxes. Other farmers did
not sign up, but they, too, must pay the tax, and it mounts
TO more than 100000 out of their pockets. In all the gov
eminent is going to take more than 100000 out of Clinton
county.
This is the penalty which Clinton county farmers must
pay for operating efficiently on good land. The benefici-

sEcURITY-NEvER MIND THE PROFIT

Here is a fact that should be Kept constantly In mind
when making Investments of any kind: The main thing
to be secured is safety of principal All other c%onsidera-
tons must be secondary.
Speculation is for those who can afford it-and, as nil
lions learned to their sorrow during recent years, a very
few of us are in that happy position.
Look at every investment you make in this light: What
will it be worth ten, twenty, thirty years from now, when |
need it most? The average man, with a good job which
provides him with a surplus above the cost of maintaining
his family, isn't investing for the present. He is laying
money aside-money that is earned with comparative ease
now-against the day when his earning capacity will have
dropped or vanished.

would not pay wages that R demanded, he spent IS
