pendent child is fixed at $40 a
month; $18 for second child and
$12 each month for additional
children. A dependent child is de-
fined as one under Is, in need, liv-
ing with parent or relative in a
family home.
The Federal government and the
state are to share approximately rs
per cent of the cost of this type of
assistance and the counties the
balance.
Medical care and hospital treat
ment are to be provided crippled
children, with vocational guidance
for those physically handicapped.
The scope of child welfare services
is extended, particularly in rural
areas.
Blind Given Aid
Assistance up to $50 a month is
provided for blind persons. In adj
dition, $75 is allowed for funeral
expenses and $25 for a burial plot.
This expense is to be shared equally
by the state and Federal govern
ments.
The act provides for adequate
financing, authorizing county coun-
ellis to suspend the $3.50 law if nee
essary ana empowers them to sell
bonds to make up for appropria-
ton deficiencies.
In the unemployment compensa-
ton insurance measure the Assem-
bly, is treading comparatively un-
known legislative path. The In
diana act is defined as one whose
purposes are to stabilize employ
ment, and to carry out this objec-
tive provisions are made for ulti-
mate generous concessions to the
employer who is able to maintain
consistently steady employment. 1t
provides also for an employment
service.
Employers to Pay
Employers are to pay this year IL
per cent of pay roll as of April l
This is in order to get 80 per cent
credit for the full year as of Jan.
when the Federal act which levies a
per cent tax throughout the ma
ton becomes effective.
In 1887 the levy is to rise to IL
per cent and in 1888 to 81 per cent

the draft prepared by the joint
legislative committee.
The purpose of this act is to ex-
tend and improve maternal and
child health services administered
by the local units of government;
improve services for the promotion
of the health of mothers and chill
dren especially in rural areas, and
to cooperate with welfare organ
izations in advancing this type of
| service.
Health Board Administers
The State Health Board is made
the administrative agent and is di-
rected to cooperate with the Chill
dren's Bureau of the U. S. Depart
ment of Labor in carrying out the
purposes of the Federal legislation
in respect to the health o. mothers
and children.
This law is not expected to re-
quire additional expense for the
state or its subdivisions, at least for
this year. Money already available
has been appropriated and such adj
ditional expenses as will be incurred
are expected to be met adequately
| by contributions from the Federal
government.
The state treasurer is designated
as officer to receive and disburse
such Federal funds as may be al
lotted.
Legislation Comprehensive
The Public Welfare Act is a COM
prehensive piece of legislation in

the blind, dependent and needy

persons. 1t abolishes the State
Board of Charities and the Board

By United Press
WASHINGTON, March 19-Pres-
ident Roosevelts $500, 100000 work
relief program met strong congress
sional opposition today from blocs
seeking to increase and earmark
the funds. House leaders predicted,
however, that the proposal could be
passed quickly without gag action.
Republican opposition to the pro-
posal was expected, but Administra-
ton leaders watched formation OF
Democratic resistance anxiously.
Unless many Democrats bolt the
majority party leadership the bill
will pass quickly, they said.
Mr.. Roosevelt was said to have
informed close advisers that he
stands ready, unless substantial
numbers of unemployed are alb
sorbed by private industry, to invoke
some drastic form either of taxation
or regulatory legislation.
Meanwhile House tax experts
we're seeking to solve involved prob
lens on the surplus tax proposal so
that a budget-tax measure could
be in shape for hearings next week.

of Mrs. Eva Wright, 4509 w. Norris

Edwin Bridwell, deputy state fire
marshal, and Bernard Lynch, fire
prevention bureau chief, made the

discrepancies in Walters story.
He previously had told police that
an unidentified aSSailant had
slugged him as he ran into the gar

flames.
An investigation was launched

THE SEASON OPENS

Already famous men and well-known
personages are listening to the buzzing of
the well-known presidential bee as political
leaders seek the opportunity of leading
one or more of the great political parties
in 1886.
On a different scale in almost every
state and community, as people go about
their daily affairs, they are surprised by
an unusually friendly greeting from some
body who only few weeks ago hardly
took the trouble to say: Good morning.
the chances are he is candidate
You do not have to be super-detec-
tive to spot the budding political ambitions
of your former neighbors and friends-go
to church and you will find them on the
front row; stay at home or in the office or
store and you will have surprise visits from
those who suddenly evince great interest
III your affairs. You are entitled to sus-
pect that they are going to offer for Of
flee.
All of this is a part of our understand
able effort in self-goverment. Too often,
however, the emphasis is placed upon the
candidate when, as a matter of fact, the
voters themselves should critically analyze
their own attitudes toward government. If
a candidate can get a vote by flattering
some ordinary citizen, isn't the trusting
and gullible voter somewhat to blame?
When citizens take more interest in
government, keep better posted as to what
is being done and what should be done for
their own welfare, study carefully and
properly the characters and abilities of
those who voluntarily offer to represent
them in the administration of political af-
fairs, and quit being fooled by promises, or
won by cheap flattery, government will be
OH a higher plane.

A NEW JAPANESE ATTACK

The significance of the smuggling of
Japanese goods into China is not lost on
other powers whose products are gradually
being squeezed out of the Chinese market
almost as effectively as if they were ban
ned by law
A recent news dispatch explains that
there is a shortage of railway cars and
motor trucks where the available supply
is insufficient to transport goods being
dumped along the coast by smugglers The
Chinese customs guards have been dis
armed by the Japanese Army, it is said
thus prohibiting the Marking Government
from collecting it's tariffs. The smugglers
pay a rate of about one-fourth the normal
tariff to the Japanese established govern
ments. Other nations whose goods enter
Chinese territory through regular channels
are compelled to pay the full tariff. Con-
Sequently, they cannot compete with the
struggled merchandise.
What is going on in China is a new
type of warfare, economic in character but
none the less decisive. By smashing the
Marking Government financially, the Jap
anese expect to gain much commercially
while at the same time, risking very little.
Protests, from Great Britain, the
United STILES and other nations have no
effect upon the Japanese. Boiled down,
the situation is that the open Door"
policy, permitting all nations to have sub
stantially the same trading privileges in
China, is being abolished If the other
nations do not like what the Japanese are
doing. they have the choice of getting to-
gether to resist the encroachments, or, if
they have no idea of cooperating in a de-
termined stand, their diplomatic officials
might as well keep their mouths shut.

OUTWITTING A CROOK

An unusual package was devilered re-
Gently to Herman Pattberg wealthy citi-
zen of Duisburg, Germany. Inside was a
carrier pigeon and letter.
The letter directed him to securely
faSten a 5,000-mark note, to the pigeon
and turn it loose. He was warned that he
would be murdered should he fail to COM
ply.
Pattberg thought it over, then bright
idea crossed his mind. He hired an avia-
tor to follow the pigeon when it was re-
leased minus the money The flyer car
ried camera with which he photographed
the house on which the pigeon alighted,
then returned and gave the picture and
directions to the police. The would-be
blackmailer was soon in jail
Which illustrates that slick crook
can be outwitted if his intended victim is
just little bit slicker.
