ELECTION MONEY

Senator Norris of Nebraska has many admirable
qualities, but apparently a sense of humor is not
among them. ..... ,,. . ....
Speaking Sunday night in behalf of President
Roosevelt and the New Deal, and beseeching sup
port for him regardless of politics, he warned
against the money that would be spent to defeat
him.
Really, Senator, the statement is very funny to
anyone who has a sense of humor. o..
Do you recall any election in history when the
party in power has had so much money at its COM
mand for unchecked and unscrutinized expendi-
ture?
Do you remember any administration which has
been more calous and shameless in its expenditure
for the promotion of it's own political fortunes than
the Roosevelt administration? .. ......
Could anything be more at variance with the
principles you have always professed than the poll
ticalizaton of human relief by the Roosevelt ad-
ministration?
Could anything be more demoralizing than the
disbursement under orders from "Tammany Jim"
Farley, whom you so dislike, of millions upon mil
lions of dollars for the manifest purpose of coerc-
ing the voters into the support of the administra-
ton from which this money proceeds? .......
Will you deny, Senator Norris, that practically
the credit of the nation has been requistioned and
billions appropriated, with eye single to the re-
election of your candidate, Mr.. Roosevelt?
Do you not realize that this vast debauchery of
the electorate was what Mr.. Farley meant when
he said that "the President will not permit himself
to be defeated? .~. g..
Any money the Republicans may have--and up
to date they have very lttle-at least belonged to
those Republicans who contributed it voluntarily.
1t is not the money of all the people-the public
wealth of the naton-used by an administration in
power for its own political advantagel b..
Come, Senator, work for Roosevelt if your graft,
tude impels you, but don't try to feed the people

MONUMENT A REAL
ASSET TO COUNTY
CONTINUED from Page One)


Society was still in existence, with II.
s. Bomberger, Boonsboro, as the presi-
dent, and deed to the monument and
one acre of land was secured and sub
sequently II acres contiguous to it was
gotten by deed, with Boonsboro citizens
aiding very materially in the acquis-
ton. Then the Washington County His
torical ociety decided the monument and
all of the land to the State of Mary
land for a perpetual shrine.
The monumnet is not far from Route
40 and now easily accessible and no
doubt in the many years to come will
be visited by thousands of people, es-
pecially tourists who come this way.
There was formed at BoOnsborO OH
February IA, 1907, an organization un-
der the name of the Society for the
Protection and Rebuilding of the First
Monument to Washington, and it is this
society, and the historical society which
have been responsible for the wonderful
work in providing this monument, re-
stored to its original shape.

Registering OF TWenfy-Six Million
Workers Under Social Security Act
Begins In Possibilities Monday
Od-Age Benefit Plan Administered Solely By Federal
Government Exceptions To Plan Set Forth
Registrations Due By November Fl

The immense job Of registering
26, 600, 900 workers for old-age PEN
sions under the Social Security Act
will begin next Monday when $4,000
postoffices will distribute to en-
ployers a form known as the "em-
ployer's application for identification
number"
These registration blanks for EN-
Iployers must be returned to the post
Offices from which they were received
by November 81, and three days
later the applications for account
numbers, to be filled out by en-
ployes, will be available to employers
for distribution among workers. The
employer, a labor organization, a
rural carrier or the employee himself
may return these papers to the Gov
eminent.
The latter forms require only the
workers name, sex and color, place
and date of birth, address. name of
parents and name and address of en-
ployer. When they have been filed
with the Social Security Board the
employee will receive an Identification
card bearing the account number
used to keep the record of his benefit
status.
The old-age benefit plan is admin
istered solely by the Federal Gov
eminent. That distinguishes it from
programs of aid to the unemployed,
the blind and the crippled, and SO
forth, in that the latter are under
taken jointly my the Federal Gov
eminent and the individual States.
In brief, the plan provides month
ly payments, starting January
1912, to workers who have reached
the age of 65, the payments to come
from a fund built up through a
payroll tax levied equally on en-
ployer and employe. Benefits range
from $40 to $85 month and are
based on the total wages received
between December 81, 1886, and the
date the worker becomes 65,, or on
January /, 1912, whichever is later
The workers covered by the plan
are called Qualified Individuals, which
means they are at least 65, and who
before attaining that age, have
earned not less than So, 900 during five
calendar years after December 81
1886. Workers whose wages are ex-
empted from the tax and who are
ineligible to share in the plan, are
agricultural workers, domestic serv.
ants, casual laborers, persons serving

Judge Peter Leaves Bulk
Of Estate To His Son

Excepting $4,000 left in trust to
the Farmers Banking & Trust Co.
of Rockville for the benefit of Miss
Nellie G.. Long for life, the tir e
estate of former Judge Robert B.
Peter, who died recently, is bequeath-

keeper for Judge Peter for many
years.
The instrument, which was execut-

names the son executor, does not IN
dictate the value of the estate, which
however, is understood to be large.
Judge Peter was formerly associate
judge of the Sixth Judicial Circuit
of Maryland, comprising Montgom.

Christmas Seals
To Be Mailed To
County Residents
Montgomery County Said To Be
Used AS Model For Rest
OF State

Preparations for mailing 100000
anti-tuberculosis Christmas seals to
residents of the county began in the
headquarters this week of the Mont
gomery County branch, Maryland
tuberculosis Association.
Volunteer groups from various
communities are helping to prepare
the seals for mailing on November
IA, the date for the opening of the
drive. Today the Campfire Girls of
Bethesda, under the direction Of Mrs.
Paul Ledig, are filling the envelopes.
Other groups will work next wees;
under the supervision of Mrs. John
B. Mertie, Jr., of Sligo Park Hills
and Mrs. w. H. Walker of Takoma
Park.
Mrs. Frank F. Zundel of Takoma
Park, chairman, said that Montgom-
cry has led in seal sales in Maryland
for the past two yers. The county
she declared, is being used as a mod
ell for the State.
This year, for the first time, the
records Of the county branch have
been transferred to the county sea.
and the entire campaign will be d.
rected from headquarters here.
Proceeds of the sale will be used
to continue chest clinics, administra-
ton of tuberculin tests and to aid
in the employment of two public
health nurses who devote a major
portion of their. time to the proven
ton of tuberculosis.
Mrs. Zundel announced that she
will be assisted by Mrs. c. j. Carl
ton as chairman of the Receiving
Committee.
Other members of the committee
are Judge Thomas M. Anderson,

non-proft organizations with reliq-
ious, charitable, scientific or educa-
ton purposes, employees Of Federal,
State or local governments, railroad
workers, and ships crews.
The tax which builds up the ben
etit fund starts at per cent ON
January l, 1887, and increases n
per cent ever three years until 1o49.
when it becomes and remains 8 per
cent. The employer deducts the tax
at those rates from his workers
wages, then contributes an equal
amount himself.
The wages taxed, and therefore
the wages on which benefits are
based, cannot exceed $4,000 in any
year. For example, if a man earns
$4,000 a year, the last $4,000 of it
will be untaxed and he will be paid
benefits just as if his salary had
been $4,000.
To qualify for benefits, which will
begin on January 1, 1912, an indi-
vidual must be 65 years old, his
total wages must be $4,000 or more,
and he must have earned wages for
at least one day in each, = Eve
different calendar years.
Lump-sum payments will be made
to individuals who reach the age Of
90 but do not qualify for monthly
benefits. The amount paid them will
equal 31s per cent of their total
wages. Death benefits will be paid
to the estates of individuals who die
before drawing monthly or lump-sum
benefits equal to 81 per cent of their
total wages.
Workers are advised to keep per-
manent records after January /,
showing the names of employers for
whom they work, how long they work
for each employer and what pay they
receive. While such record-keepinx
is not mandatory it il advisable.
Employers must keep records of re-
muneration paid employees showing
the workers occupation, his pay and
the number assigned to him under
the security program
