HIST ANOTHER INSURANCE POLICY

A New Years press release from the Social Sc
curity Board, which arrives in typcally govern,
mental fashion week late, procaims that spe'
cial significance is given to this New Year by the
fact that old age insurance becomes operative in
1897. reaffirming-
a. once more, for all of us and for our
own day, our inalienable right not only to life
and liberty but to the pursuit of happiness
We're glad the Social Security Boards press SER
vice is sauting the beginning of old age insurance
heroically and with fanfare. It's going to cost
enough in the end to deserve special notice in the
beginning From the way its benefciaries are act
ing, however, you'd never know they had just be-
gun reaffirmng their right to life liberty q the
D. of h. Beyond certain simian curiosity in THEN
new numbers and rather anxious interest in the
contents of their first pay envelopes after the de-
ductions start, most of the socially secured are
entering into their new estate without any mani
festations of excitement, even indifferently Per
haps after benefits have commenced and old age
insurance has proved itself both desirable and sup
portable, the beneficaries will show more enthusi
asm But for the present, there hasn't been sin

celebration and the oratory to the politicians who
sold them these insurance policies.-The Charlotte

AND FOR LAWYERS

BY setting up 26,000,000 separate old-age PEN
sion acc, nts the social security act it is estimat
ed, provided jobs for $1,000 bookkeepers in pr-
vate and government employ, thereby going far to
solve the unemployment problem as far as book
keepers are concerned.
But it did more than that. 1t set up also at
least 26,OOO,OOO possibilities of error in keeping
the accounts which is for all practical purposes a
dead certainty that errors will be made.
All the world knows that getting governmental
error corrected is of the most difficult jobs in
the world, calling for wealth of expert knowl-
edge Most persons believe not without reason,
that an attorney-at-law is the only man who has a
chance of success at it; the natural impulse of
any man entangled in governmental red tape is to
hire lawyer
| Consider then, the infinite possibilities opened
up by the fact that there will shortly be 10000
900 people who may find themselves the victims of
bookkeeping errors and who will need legal as
istance on thacaccount. 1t is evident that the field
of employment for bookkeepers opened up by the
social security act, wide it is, is narrow by COM
parison with the field of employment it opens up
for lawyers.
Some days ago note was made in these columns
that the act was a great thing for bookkeepers
1t is now apparent that it is probably great thing
for lawyers too.-Baltimore Evening Sun.

characteristic of Persian cats.
"The first thing that was done
was to rcbukc her fer her mis-
deeds. While that period was be-
ing passed through, her claws were
clipped so that cushions and rugs
would not be damaged. As soon
as we could tell from her reactions
to reproof that she knew what we
wanted, a switch off an apple tree
was brought into the picture. Then
every time she committed mis-
deed she was switched.
"Shc quickly learned not to
jump up onto forbidden places
and not to claw cushions and rugs,
after which her laws were allowed
to grow out. The hardest thing to
teach her was not to bite and
Scratch-Since those traits were
instructive with her. However, dur

struction, she learned to keep her
claws shcathed and her teeth to
herself, no matter how much she
might wish to use the min frOlic

learned obedience, which is very
convenient in dealing with her.

concluded, because she has learn

squares exactly with what wrote
about guiding and controlling

TIL E NEW DEAL
IN WASHINGTON
.eY RODNEY BUTCHER.
BY RODNEY BUTCHER

BY RODNEY BUTCHER
NEk Service Stnn Correspondent
WASHINGTON The General
w Motors strike is being consid-
cred in Washington from the fol-
lowing angles, among others:
1.-The future of John L. Lewis,
l. chief of the Committee for
Industrial Organization, whose
willingness to meet owners of the
mass production industries in bat
tie at this time is a gamble Of his
own position in the labor move
ment and the future success of
the c. /. o.
O-Possibility that showdowns in
q the steel and coal industries
will appear along with the one in
automobiles and perhaps bring
about a situation of general strike
proportions in which Roosevelt
will feel forced to act in a way
which would bring a break be-
tween him and Lewis.
O-Question whether the U. S.
y Supreme Court (meaning one
or two Of its members) will be so
impressed by the dangers Of eX-
tensive labor warfare that it will
hold the Wagner labor disputes
act constitutional. This would
force the automobile. steel, and
other industries to concede ma
jor point by bargaining collec-
lively with labor unions and abol-
ishing their company unions.
d-Possible effect of labor war
+ fare in speeding labor legisla-
ton by Congress. "'
E-Likelihood that the LaFollette
- labor spy committee will turn
loose its evidence by resuming
hearings with General Motors
witnesses on the stand. (Alleged
evidence exists that spies searched

cards or other discriminating
documents which, when found,

we're considered cause for dis
miSSalD
MEANWHILE, it is important to
~ bear in mind that the auto
mobile industry employs 100000
workers, directly or indirectly;
that Roosevelt is sympathetic with
the c. I. o. and would prefer a
strong labor movement; and that
the anticipated General Motors
strike and the series of previous
automobile supply strikes are not
a well-planned, carefully organ
lied movement.
Sitdown strikes in the supply
industries usually began with
out inStigation from union leaders.
Workers in the fiat glass industry,
for instance, practically ran away
with their union chiefs.
Blu, the sitdown strikes enor-
mously accelerated union organi-
cation, according to reports in
Washington. AS if impressed by
a new sense of solidarity and
power, sitdown strikers pro-
ceedei to sign cards in large
patches, sometimes unanimously.
T EVILS insisted on having evil
- dence Of this before he an
nounced his collective bargaining
ultimatum to General Motors
week before Christmas, soon after
he and other G. I. o. leaders
realized for the frst time how fast
the U. A. w. was organizing.
II was then that Lewis decided
that opportunity was unexpected
~ at fand and should be grabbed
al the automobile industry's nor
mai peak of production.
The Wagner Labor act, with its
guarantee OF collective bargaining,
will net be argued before the SUI
nreme court until Feb. 8 and argu-
ment is expected to be postponed
even beyond that if Justice Har.
Ian F. Stone has not then recov-
cred sufficiently from illness to re-
turn to the bench.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
PROFESSIONAL "RELIEFERS"

Every first Monday there is usually from so to
100 people who try to appear before the county
commissioners asking to be placed on the relief
rolls. Some that are already on relief ask for more
money and to tell the truth, the average Of these
people can put up such tales of that even a
wooden Indian would shed tears in sympathy.
But the commissioners have learned that the
average person on relief is professonal-yes, a
professional "reliefer" And for that reason they
turn all cases over to the superintendent of relief
Mrs. ]. Dale Stentz, for an investigation.
Some of the "reliefers" try to get help from
both Mrs. Stentz and the commissioners, and then
is when the fun starts. Mrs. Stentz is called in,
and in a few minutes tells all the actual facts in
the case Of each 'reliefer." And after the board
hears Mrs Stentz's side Of the matter, the relef-
err" is waved aside, because there is nothing to add
to the story.
Monday afternoon man plead that he and
his family were starving and freezing, since they
had neither food nor clothing. Mrs Stentz brought
forth facts and showed where four members of the
mans family were working daily, and being paid
in cash. The man had owned truck, and had just
few weeks before quit government job
The board of commissioners and Mrs Stentz
will not see anyone starve Neither will they know
ingy let anyone freeze, but from what we have
observed from their meetings they are not giving
money clothing or food to anyone who does not
honestly deserve it.
One woman Monday called the board and Mrs.
Stentz everything she could think of-things that
we dare not put in print-but she did not deny the
facts as presented by Mrs. Stentz, therefore did
not get the help she sought.
The average person seeking relief is not deserv-
ing-many are too lazy to work, and had rather
beg and almost starve than do honest work.
We were impressed with the sincerity and thor
oughness which the board and Mrs. Stentz went
into each case. And if we're not mistaken such a
procedure will mean smaller relief roll, the saw
ing of hundreds of dollars to the county, and a
better class of citizens than the average profess
sional "reliefer" makes.-The Waynesville Noun

SOVIET TREND
TO ATHEISM
NOT CHECKED
Christianity Makes Further
Decline After Religious
Freedom Given
BY NORMAN B. DEUEL.

MOSCOW. Jan. ~. (UP)-Al-
though granted a charter of libcr-
ty in the new Soviet constitution
which separated church and state
and guaranteed the right to wOr-
ship, Christianity is steadily de-
clining in the Soviet Union, sur
vey shows.
The constitution likewise grant
ed tn cright to conduct anti-reli-
gious propaganda and the weight
of the press, Communist Party
and youth organizations is cast
strongly on the side Of atheism.
Churches throughout the Soviet
Union are steadily being aban-
doned through lack Of sufficient
congregations. Others have been
destroyed or converted to other
uses in rebuilding of cities. AS
available churches become fewer,
crowds increase in those open
during Easter, Russia's one big
religious holiday.
The Great Orthodox church con-
tinues to be suspect politically
and is under close watch and SUI
pervision. A priest who exercises
political influence or expresses
anti-Soviet feelings often does not
remain long in his position.
FEW CATHOLIC CHURCHES
There are few churches of other
faith than Greek Orthodox in
the Soviet Union. Roman Catholic
services are conducted in Moscow
and Leningrad by foreign priests,
one Of whom, in Moscow, is an
American, Father Braun.
German Lutheran churches con-
ducc services in Moscow and Len
ingrad. but the Moscow church at
present is without pastor.
Twenty-cight Greek Orthodox
churches were open in Moscow last
Easter. compared with 454 which
operated prior to the revolution.
Eight had been closed in 1895
and several others have been
closed or destroyed since.
Those that still exist are ham
dicappcd by a schism between
the "new' and the "old" churches,
and dwindling congregations must
pay tax to the local Soviets for
use Of state property.
The Greek Orthodox church
split into the two groups after
the revolution. 0utwardly the
main difference was that the Old
Church kept to the Julian calen-
dar while the New Church adopt
cd the Grcgorian, made some
changes in the service and permit
ted the priests to cut their hair.
STRUGGLE FOR POWER
Actually, bitter struggle for
power between Patriarch Tykhon
of the Old Church and Archbishop
Vvedensky, head of the New
Church, resulted. The New Church
professed loyalty to the Soviet re-
gime while the Old Church, par
ticularly until the death Of Patri-
arch Tykhon in 1924, had many
SiSihcHls Hostiie 10 inc new gov
eminent. "
Many leading Tykhonites were
exiled after the death of their
leader, but gradually the priests,
fearing to speak directly or indi-
fectly against the government, de-
voted themselves to funerals, an
occasional christening and still
more rarely marriage.
