How Old Age Aid Works

Since old age Phase No. 1 will pay off next year, let's analyze Old Age Assistance first.
 The aim here is to allow old peo- pie to spend their last years in something like dignity and comfort, outside the poorhouse, by stimulat- ing the states into federal aid scheme to provide an income for their needy over the age of 65 or near that figure.
 The Social Security Board is au- thorized to pay out about $50,000,- 900 this year in matching dollar for dollar such money as states provide for old age pensions. 9th CT appropriations are planned for ensuing years. To receive federal money, a state must have an old age pension law which meets cer- tain minimum standards required by the Security Act and is ap- proved by SSB.
 The board will match state al- lotments for these pensions up to SIS 8 month, which means that any old age pension above $50 will include more state than federal money. The state may limit per- sions to persons of 70 years or more until 1940, when the limit

 The estimated $32,0o0 100000 re- serve fund which it will have cre- ated by 1870 will exceed the pres ent national debt. The laws stipu- lation that this must be invested in government securities probably means an end to private owner ship of these government securi- ties.
 Its huge cost will be borne by younger workers, first in the tax on their incomes and second in the tax on their employers, which theoretically will be passed on to them as consumers.
 This is the first time a nation has established a contributory old age insurance scheme without charging some of its cost up to the state, with it's sources of rev- eune from the wealthy.

homa, Oregon, Rhode Island, Ver- mont, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.
 Eleven states have no old age pension laws at all-Georgia, New Mexico, North Carolina, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Tennessee, and Virginia. Of those, only Louisiana, South Carolina, Mississippi, and Virginia have scheduled meetings of their legisla- lures next year.
 Florida, Illinois, Maine, Nevada, Kentucky, and West Virginia haven't set dates for their laws to take effect. Florida, Kentucky, Nevada, Utah, and West Virginia have laws optional with counties, whereas the federal act says they must be statewide and mandatory.
 Eleven states require from 10 to 20 years of citizenship, which must be changed under the federal act. Sixteen others call for residence within the state for from 10 to 35 vars.

FAIRBANKS YOUTHS BUILD
 STRANGE LOOKING VEHICLE

Built in one week by two Fair banks youths. a sUange-looking three-wheelad vehicle. powered by .a roaring propeller is attracting considerable attention in that city.
 Pierre St Amand and Menifee Macdonald planned and built the machine II is triangular in shape and the body is the framework Of an airplane fuselage. Al the front IS one bicycle wheel. which is steered by an airplane joy-stiek. or steering rod Al the rear are two airplane wheels and it powers a propeller behind the motor. The whirring of the propeller moves the vehicle a veritable earth plane.
 Many Fairbanks photographers snapped pictures of the unusual machine as t made its first ap- pearanee in the downtown district. When running the motor sounds very much like an outboard motor of a boat The machine has a cruising speed of 15 miles an hour and a top speed of 20 miles. IL Is rather expensive to operate. mak= ing only four or five miles on a gal lon of gasoline

DOG DAYS IN KET0HIKAN
tketehikan Chronicle

For those who have a peeYe against the city for giving so many privileges to dogs in defiance of all increasingly neglected ordinance there Is stil a ray of hope. The po- lice blotter one day this week con- tainea the encouraging news that dogs are getting so thick that dog owner 4 has had 10 complain a. bout Bs dogs, and B in turn has to complain 10 the police about A A's dogs.
 Not only that, but h recent months there hae been al least two complaints of dogs nipping children.
 For a while. Ketehikan said to the dog owner, Pay a license lee and your dog is free to do as he uIeases-aImost." Then public dis gust became too great, so ketchi- kan said 10 the dog owner, You can have a dog only if you keep him iu your own yard. Il you take him on the streets or sidewalks II must be under leash-or else. Lately 1AElI4lhau Has saAu u A1I AOE hRAN CT. You can give your dog the run of the streets. the run of your neighbors porch and garden. aud he can nip the neighbors children If he makes sure is uo more than a nip
 That was apparently fine witH the dog owners. and anybody who had anything To say against the practice was accused of unkindness 10 dumb animals. But now that the dog owners are lining up a. gainst one another there seems to be just a bit more chance to have something done about it.
 The last we heard was that the poliee-Who aren't hired 10 be dog catchers-had given the dog catch ing job out. But there the record stops. Maybe the dogs got the dog catcher.

The balanced diet must con tain plenty of bread-the out standing energy food.
 Each ingredient in bread made in the American Bakery is carefully selected and pre- pared.
 A new feeling of good health comes from including bread of such high quality in the daily diet.

THE GOLD COAST OF ALASKA

There is a magic lure in raw gold which can not be denied. There is the freedom Of the hills. the sweep Of deep rivers and creeks, the mys- tery, adventure, the thrill that comes with the sight Of raw gold.
 Though modern science has bro1 other minerals into use. the yellow metal continues 10 hold the center Of attention.
 Expressions always intensity gold mining. IL was so in Alaska and the Yukon following the depression oI 1887. when great discoveries Were made. And il is doubly so today with the higher price of gold Mil lions Of dollars in new gold wealth is being added to the country's us ual output.
 While Alaska ranks thirds in gold producing areas Of the United Sta tes, the day is coming when the gold from Alaska will take first rank. The gold is here; imbedded in hills and valleys through thousands of centuries. There may be over production in other industries, but not So in gold mining.

800. Most of these 500 eighth grad

grade, next fall. Modern conditions
point to the necessity for even great

week: Willow River, 40; Pine City,

youths have now Joined over three
million others between the ages OF
16 and 25 who have little or no defin-
lite place in our social and economic
system. Yet this is no argument
AGAINST high school or college train
ing as our future leaders will need
even greater training in this age OF
keen competition. If any criticism
is due, it perhaps should be directed
at our obsolete curriculum contents
or at our economic system OF "laissez
faire" and laws of the jungle that
seem to provide little or no place for
youth in this age of machines and
over-production.
Let us encourage more school edu-
cation for youth so that they perhaps
will profit even better in the school
of experience. Success should De

ton and experience all help to train
for greater useful service.
