general assembly should be called and
a special law passed, Fletcher said.
For before any state can share in this
fund it must have a uniform old age
pensions law and match every dollar
of Federal funds with dollar of state
funds. Thus, in order to obtain the
maximum Of $15 month from the
Federal fund. the state would first
bsyc @to -.epact a law paying '$f5 n
north to leach pensioner from state
funds, so that in all the pensioncr
would receive $50 a. month. Of If the
state makes its payment only $40 a
month. the Government would pay on
ly $40 a month and the pensioner
get only 500 a month
One of the requirements of the Fed
eral law is that any pensioners 65
years old or more who owns any pro-
perty. must give lien on this pro-
perty to the Government in order to
get a pension. such property to be
sold on the death of the pensioner to
reimburse it for the pension aid. If
any balance is left. it will be turned
over to the heirs. if any. This pro-
vision is designed to prevent those
with property obtaining pensions I'M
less they are willing to assign their
property to the government in return
for the pensions received, Fletcher
pointed out.

JOY
The policy Of the state in later
years has been to weed out thc little
banks whose existence is not now
necessary. There were in small Wake
towns half a dozen of these banks.
They are all gone now. The communi-
ties cannot support them. Transport
tation is so easy that convenience
isn't especially served by having a
multiplicity of small banks.
The statement of Mr. Hoods office
today reflects the banking health that
he promised year ago. 1t appears to
be absolute truth when the commits

dition that it ever has known in the

TODAY'S HOROSCOPE

Today's nature is light and fam

of spirit that will bear you over any
bit of rough road, which is fortunate
for the road abounds in pitfalls. 1t
is a degree of self-indulgence, which
gives a tendency to mere dabbling in
affairs. A certain determination OF

any awkard missteps.

FEDERAL FUNDS FOR EDUCATION

The National Education Association
meeting at Portland Oregon last week, is
advocating a bill providing 100000, 900
to the states to be expended Gin such man
ner as their legislatures shall designate"
The measure is said to have the endorse
ment of the association and of teachers
associations in every state. An effort will
be made this summer and fall to secure
support from all congressional candidates
who will be persuaded" that it is good
politics to favor the proposed bill
For the Federal Government to adj
vance $30O,OOO,0OO to the states for
educational purposes would be new drain
upon the Federal Treasury. However,
bascally, there Is at least as much argu-
ment for the proposal as there is in Fed
eral appropriations for good roads. 1t is
fact that school districts throughout the
country are experiencing difficulties in Sc
curing the funds necessary to provide rea-
sonable educational opportunities for the
children. Moreover, in many districts,
teachers have been paid in orders" rather
than in cash and in numerous instances
their pay has been long deferred.
- Objections to the Federal grant arise
from fear that an attempt may be made to
regiment" education in the United States
but the measure sponsored by the National
Education Association attempts to safe
guard any such danger. Too much en-
phasis cannot be placed upon the import
ance of educational opportunities in this
ment depends upon the ability of voters to
understand and decide public questions.

A BETTER DAY FOR THE INVESTOR

Investors will demand more and

said Charles R. Gay, President of the New

lleve that investment is becoming con-
tinuouSly and constantly more analytical
and that speculation in securities is grow
ing more intelligent, without losing any
thing of its aggressiveness. l am per-
suaded, furthermore that in the period of
recovery and expansion which lies ahead
of us, both investors and spectators are
going to uncover values in old established
businesses which were not revealed be-
fore. And in this process, and the con-
ventures in securities, they will seek CO.

changes naturally will be called upon to
render

The Securities and Exchange Act has out
lawed many dubious practices, and affords
great protection to security buyers
Equally important, the great stock ex-
changes have voluntarily adopted the
strictest possible rules to govern corpora
tons listing their securities and brokers
handling them. This means that the in
4testor can, if he will, pursue an invest
ement program based on facts, not unrea-
,soned hopes.

Gently reappeared in several publications.

Belnhardt, and the late Sam Davis of the

the then metropolis of California, and he
did so.

expressions of appreciation to which he
appeared to be entitled, the story does not
state.

governmental expenditure. but q
gain. However. the expenditure
should be justified on the ground Of
the usefulness of the service. and not
on the ground that government ex-
penditure gives employment 10 labor.
For example. farmer needs trac-
tor. and he has the necessary money.
we may assume. for the down pay
ment. But he is not able to buy the
tractor. because he has TO use the
money to pay his taxes Does the ex-
penditure by he government of this
tax money stimulate industry? OBJ
viously not! What happens is that one
kind of labor is displaced by an
other.
A government employee mas a job.
and the beneficial results of his hav-
ing purchasing power are seen. What
it not seen is that the purchasing pow
er that the government employee has
might have been enjoyed by laborer
making tractors or materials for trac-
tors.
To illustrate the point further. take
the proposed Florida ship canal or
the Passamaquoddy hydro-electric
project. These were begun as a de-
vice for creating employment. To
many persons. even those in high
places. the projects seemed meri-
torious. because it was readily seen
that they gave employment to labor.
What was not always seen was that
the large sums of money that tax
payers must supply soon or late TO
provide the necessary funds would
also give employment TO labor. il
not diverted to the government treas
ury.
II the government project is
sound one. such as the building of
the Panama Canal. the expenditure
can easily be justified. but the tend
ency these days seems TO be to regard
almost any expenditure. no matter
how prodigal. as justified. if it gives
employment to labor
The widespread acceptance Of this
mistaken notion is due to the fact that
the advantages of such a policy are
seen. but the disadvantages are IN
seen.
