SOCIAL SECURITY
HELD FIRST STEP
Aide of Board Tells "Y"
Forum That Act Opens
New Path.

The social security act was described
- a significant beginning in the di-
rection Of adequate social legislation
rather than panacea for all our social
Ills by Walter J. Campbell, chief of the
Educational Division of the Social Sc
curity Board, in q talk last night at the
Young Peoples Forum OF the Y.
M. c. A.
This legislation" he said "is the
beginning of q social program that
must be carried forward in the years
to come as we reap the benefits Of our
present experience. 1t is no panacea
and it does not mean the destruction of
the American system of life, but it is
. real significant beginning toward
demonstrating our willingness to as
sumo our social responsibilities"
Mechanization of industry, with its
consequent lag in adjustment of en-
ployment and the fact that America is
rapidly approaching a time, probably
by about 1860, when it will have q
relatively stable population with an
average age of 40, were mentioned by
Campbell as important factors con-
tributing to the need for adequate So
cial legislation.
He then discussed steps that have
been taken under existing social Sc
c.lrity legislation, pointing out that
over 100000 persons are today draw
ing monthly benefits from the laws Al
ready on the statute books.
Campbell was questioned by a panel
composed Of DR.. Howard A. Dawson
Of the National Education Association,
chairman: Walter Bastian, president
Of the District Bar Association; A.
Boyd Hines of the Community Chest,
L. Pierce Riddle, American Security &
Trust Co., and DusseI Greenmann of

Senate Subcommittee to Be
Urged to Grant Full Power
in Problem.

= The District Commissioners indi-
Gated today they will ask Of Congress
blanket authority to solve the Capitals
snarled traffic problem.
Chairman Thomas of the Senate
Subcommittee on District Appropria-
tions has invited the Commissioners
to appear before his committee tomor-
row to explain their wish for this
power as well as the right to exercise
full control over snow removal and
parking lot regulations
The Senator said that if the Off
Gals presentation of their present in
ability to cope with parking and traf-
fic, especially in the downtown and
congested areas around the public
buildings, is forceful enough, the
pending District appropriation bill will
be amended to grant them the full
authority.
Thomas himself suggested such
move late last week.
The proposal is an indirect result of
the Districts inability to enforce its
regulation last Winter, prohibiting
parking in downtown areas during the
time when snow was on the ground or
was expected.
Emergency "no-parking" signs were
posted on most of the downtown
streets, but a contest before former

Wheat King, Renting Acreage,
Reaps 5000 A.A.A. Harvest
Campbell Leases Indian,
Land, Gets $2I,l36
in Benefit Checks.
BY CARLISLE BARGERON.

The slowly unfolding picture of the
A. A. A. planned economy reveals that
Tom Campbell, famous Montana wheat
grower, made a profit in l933-34 from
renting lands from the Indians and
then reducing acreage on them, Of
more than $50,000.
Campbell has long been known as
one of the mass producers Of the
agricultural open spaces. When Mr.
Hoover was worried about the farm
problem Campbell made a trip to
Russia for him to study the situation
and, in addition to lot of ideas, he
brought back lot of trophies to his
friends.
1t develops from A. A. A. reports
that in the Fall of 1888 and Spring Of
1884 he received three benefit pay
ments totaling $2l,136 for conforming
to the wheat curtailment program on
$4,000 acres. OF this total acreage,
Mr.. Campbell rented l6,519 acres from
the Crow Indians at from so cents to
$3.50 per acre, and the Agricultural
Adjustment figures indicates that very
little of it was rented at the $3.50
figure.

Assuming. however, that he paid the
full price of $l.50 per acre, his total
rental payment would have amounted
to less than $25,000. AS the transac-
