THE BILL IS COMING DUE

Have you ever noticed how easy
is to establish a charge or term-pay
ment account in a department store
But no matter how easily tn
credit is obtained, or how small thu
payments, they come due regularly
and If not paid-Well, the law JUS
takes its course and the debtor suf
fers.
The people of the United States
are just now waking up to the fac
that they have been on a gigantic
spending spree. Never did they us'
their public credit so freely. But the
day of reckoning is here. The charge
accounts are coming due and the
payments will have to be made.
Just as the unwary customer is
talked in to spending more than he
can afford by the super-selliRg abil-
ity of the expert clerk, so have an
unwary people been talked in to
spending more than they can well
afford to pay, by the silver tongues
Of the politicians.
In the latter case, however, the

be given something for nothing
that the billions of dollars handed
out in the name Of relief and "re-
cOvery" would be taken from some
body else's pocket.
But the dream has ended. The
tax-gatheFer's hand is going right
down into John Jones' pocket to

Jones.
A new tax-raising bill has been
thrown into the lap of Congress,
that will have a tremendous effect
on the earnings, the savings and the
estates of every citizen. For camOu-
fiage and publicity purposes, it is
designated as a share the wealth"
or soak the rich" tax program. The
Portland OregOnian says:

WHERE THERE IS NO
SATURATION POINT

The Insurance Field observes that
II Is occasionally said that life in.
surance has reached the saturatiou
point. But statistics paint a differ
ent picture.
Life insurance policies have been
purchased by about half the people
OF this country. Their investment in
lille insurance totals some $22,OOO,-
OOO,OOO. Yet, vast as that figure is,
the average individual policy out
standing is for only $1.67O-and the
average share of life insurance as
sets per pOlicyhOlder amounts to
only 1854. AS the Insurance Field
says: What a field for additional
insurance."
AS a matter of fact, there can be
no real saturatiOn point in life in
surance. No person can have too
much security. No one can have in
vestments that are too safe. And
there are few of us who don't want
more money in old age, both for our
selves and our dependents.
If the average man has only $1,000
eANGs ID a lldEhCL lOI
ten or twenty times that amount. By
the time that is reached. it is very
possible that the average man will
want to increase his insurance hold
ings still further.
Every time a larger part Of the
national income is spent for insur-
ance, the national assets increase
and spending rises. More money
goes for the necessities and luxur-
les that make jobs and investments
and that, in turn, begets still more
spending. The pOtentialities of life
insurance as an economic force, en-
tirely aside from its social benefits,
would require an EinsteintO figure.

you ever knew.

FOOD FAD
 0NE.PlECE MEALS
Favorite Recipes of Fa- nous People Last Word
 Along Park Ave. Now

New York.-Well, the latest food fad in the world of fashion is- one piece meals.
 Just a single dish,-but of an ex- cellence extraordinary.
 They are being served at the smarest lunches along Park Avenue. They are taking the place of four courses at fashionable dinners. They are the Hast word" for Sunday night suppers.
 They are in, such demand among the, real blue bloods that most of the tony New York hotels and res- taurants are featuring them.
 The fad is reflected in many homes. To the ordinary homemak- CT, they have obvious advantages. They're blessing to the cook, a treat for the guest, 8 boon to the washer-up, and in fashion every where. Just step up and help yourselfl
 The half-dozen most fashionable one-piece meals of the day have been gathered into recipe form by the woman's editor of Golfers Weekly.-by the simple process Of asking for favorite recipes Of such typical eaters as: Eddie Cantor. Beatrice Lille, Orchestra Conductor Toscanini, Miriam Hopkins, Herbert Marshall and Helen Hayes. Here are their standbys:
 Eddie Cantor: Hamburger with Mint Sauce. Fresh-ground steak, well-seasoned with salt and pep per, and celery chopped fine. No onions, please-Eddit says ham, burger has 8 much finer flavor without them. Broil the meat, and serve it rare, with a butter sauce and half of it smothered in garden peas, which are cooked separately (8 minutes), with half a teaspoon of sugar and six leaves Of fresh mint added to the bare half cup full of water in which they are boiled.
 Beatrice Lille: Lamb Chops Ha- waiian with Beer. Grill the lamb chops, along with thick slices of pineapple. Baste them as they UTOll WILL tAlC pAAC0kPA1 JJAAcS, eAANA burn both meat and fruit little just past the brown stage. Get a little of the flavor of the pineapple into the meat, and little of the flavor of the meat into the pine apple. Then bring on the beer, not too cold. Pineapple, says Miss Lil- lie, hsa a certain tang which is peculiarly enjoyable with bes-.
 Miriam Hopkins: Eggs Hollywood Style. Heat green asparagus stalks, meanwhile preparing a white sauce, to which should be added a dash of Worcestershire and several dashes of paprika. Poach the eggs and nest them in the asparagus. Cover them with the savory white sauce. Crate a fine sprinkling of cheese over everything and pop it in a sizzling oven.
 Helen Hayes: Calf's Liver Co., auette. Liver should be in thin slices, sauteed gently in butter. On one side of the meat, when served, crisp strips of lean bacon. On the other side, new string beans in a light cream sauce with a sprinkling of cheese over them (brOwned for few seconds in the oveno
