JobIess to Get $6 Weekly For
IS Weeks in Presidents
Plan Sent Congress
BY EARL GOODWIN

President Roosevelt sent to
Congress today a detailed plan
for a national system Of old age
pensions and insurance against
unemployment. accompanying 1t
with a message recommending its
deep study. It is assumed that
Congress will give the plan first
consideration and that the Gov
ernment's end of the new policy
will soon be matter of law.
It is a plan whereby old age
pensions begin at IS, and where
the average employe can be. sure
Of a small weekly pension for at
least Is weeks, if out of a job.
It is a practical plan, to be
financed by the people them
selves, managed largely by State
governments, while the money is
to be cared for by the United
States and kept in the Treasury
at Washington.
It is to be administered by a so
clal insurance board within the
Department of Labor.
Are In Contrast
In contrast to the 5000 month
dream of the Townsend old age
pension plan, the Presidents pro
posals are small, but they are
something which can be accom-.
plished. Actually, except in the
beginning. the people involved fl
nance the various funds. The
United States does not pay out
money except to supervise and get
the plan working.
However, the Federal Govern.
ment adds security to the entire
proposal. The United States sets
the standards, requires the States
to cooperate or receive none of the
benefits, and keeps the money
here in Washington until checked
out to beneficiaries.
The average person of IS, when
the system starts working, would
receive a pension of at least $50 a
month, if he qualified as needing
the pension. The United States
would put up SIS and the State
must put up at least SIS. The
average $40 a week worker, if out
Of job, would get around Sc a
week for is weeks. After that,
he would be certified to the Public
Works Administration for a re.
lief job if nothing else turned up.
These Give Idea
These two examples give an
Idea as to the general scope OF
payments and pensions.
Money for the unemployment
pension funds is to be raised by
a tax on pay rolls, but there would
be a recognition of the fact that
in some States employers are al
ready contributing to State laws
providing for unemployment in
surance funds.
Money for the old age pensions
Is to be raised by contributions of
workers, matched by contributions
from employers. The Government
and the States are to contribute
the whole pension in the case of

THIS name comes from the Dutch
word Hamper" meaning a cham
pion, or fighting man. It has been
applied to the qualities of a person, q
place of camp or battle by the word
"camperley." There are places in
many parts Of England bearing this
name, particularly in County Norfolk
and in Cornwall. AS early as 1908,
the name was established in England.
when we find mention of Eustace de
Kimberle, and also that Of Hugh de
Kimberly, who served as burgess of
Great Yarmouth.
The founder of the name Kimberley,
or Kimberly, in America, was Thomas,
who came from England to Dorchester,
Mass, in 1885. In 1888 he removed to
New Haven, and later became resi-
dent of Stratford, Conn. where in
1878 he died. His will mentions his
sons, Thomas, Abraham, Nathaniel,
Eleazer; his wife, Mary, and several
daughters.
The name Kimberley is found today
in every State.

Mrs. Reddy wanted to see those traps
But when they got up there in the
Old Pasture it was to find that boy
back again. He was there at their
old home. He had already found those
traps upset and he had known at once
that he was dealing with a Fox, wise
in the ways Of trappers. He looked
a little chagrined as he picked the
traps up, for he knew it was of no
use to reset them.
"Ill have to try something else" "
said he to himself. Those young
Foxes probably are down inside here
just the same. I guess I'll have to
smoke them out. Once get those
young Foxes the old ones are not
likly to bother my chickens any

So Reddy and Mrs. Reddy, hidden
in the brush, watched the boy and
wondered what he was doing. They
saw him make a fire and this puzzled
them. But after some time when they
saw smoke coming out of the back
door of their old home they dimly
realized what 1t meant.

to Reddy, that he would do some

Reddy. that that boy would dc
something dreadful up here. He
couldn't dig the children out because
Of the rocks, but had feeling he
would find some other way. That is
why insisted on moving them when
I did"
Reddy and Mrs. Reddy watched
until they saw the boy give up in
disappointment and start for home
with the traps hanging over his
shoulder. They certainly had cause
for rejoicing and they knew it.

The Old Gardener Saws :

When plant lice appear on the
roSes-and they are due very
soon-they must be given a spe-
cial treatment with a nicotine
preparation. Sometimes tobacco
dust is mixed with the Massey
dust, but 1t Is better on the
whole to use a liquid nicotine
spray alone, and 1t should be
applied at noontime rather than
in the morning or evening. The
fact must be kept in mind also
that the pests must actually be
hit by the spray, because they
cannot be killed by the poison
route, but must be smothered to
death. Sometimes in the Spring
when there are not too many
plants, the lice can be washed
from the roses, and in fact from
all trees and shrubs where they
are found, with the hose, a fairly
strong stream being used. This
Is a simple and effective plan,
which is often overlooked.
