OF course if a man amt a sports

use a line of more than 27 pound
pull, you amt givin' the fish a
fightin' chance.
Aunt Bercie was kinda disap-
pointed when she didn't get cer-

If CAPpY RICKS
GOULD SEE IT NOW

The Dollar Sign will disappear from
the sea in few years.
This famous emblem of oceanic travel,
pennant of the firm established by the
old sea captain who inspired the i'm
mortal Cappy Ricks stories, was doomed
when the U. S. maritime commission
entered into an agreement under which
1t will acquire approximately 90 per
cent of the company's voting stock.
The Dollar lines have fallen upon
hard times in recent years, prey of
changing economic conditions which
made operation under old conditions
virtually impossible The company's
working capital at present is practically
exhausted and only four of its II ships
are now in operation. Government sub
sides were the only answer, together
with an RFC loan.
Cappy Kicks, wise old veteran of
oceanic commerce, might see in the Dol
lar lines doom forecasting of future
greatness for transportation, instead of
the fall of a business empire. The old
fellow might be saddened by the passing
of an institution, but he might, too, see
IN it sign that newer speedier methods
of transportation are taking their place
in the world of commerce.
Cappy Ricks might even organize a
commercial airline

SPENDING NOT SAVING
SECURITY RESERVES

(Oroville Mereury-Register)
The most remarkable thing in present
day L. S. economics and social security"
is something that has been seldom men,
toned but something that, if it were
thoroughly understood would have a mil
lion working men excited and distrust-
ful. It is the fact that the Washington
administration has been spending al
most as fast as it gets it the money col
lected from payrolls to make the work
ing man secure from want when the
day of unemployment comes.
We aren't very smart on such matters,
SO when we first learned of this we kept
still. Maybe what looked rotten was Ok
Maybe it was all right for Uncle Sam
to collect these dollars by the millions,
say he was holding it to give back to us
when we needed it, and then spend it
for his own needs. 1t looked strange,
and we kept watching for an interpreta-
ton.
1t comes from B. C. Forbes, an indie
pendent writer on financial matters. He
says that:
obviously no security whatsoever is
actually provided" when "the govern
ment goes daily along, paying out the
income tax on workers and the cash
II SoiiS1lo 4Iolil ellpIOy6IS, WHICH NdS
designed to protect them when the en-
ergency should come.
Were the governments conduct fully
understood by those contributing to the
social security reserve, there would be
a nationwide uprising writes Forbes
Money spent for running expenses cam
not possibly be honestly labeled as a
reserve by that government any more
than by an individual, family an insti-
tuition or corporation"
Imagine situation such as existed in
the days of panic when millions were
out of work and the ranks of the unem-
ployed were being rapidly swollen. That
IS the time when the reserve is supposed
to go into action. If the reserve isn't
there, the workingman won't get it.
Almost billion dollars should be in
this reserve. 1t is being spent as rapidly
as they can lay hands on it, and it is
our money-not theirs.
Imperial Valley press., 1938-08-22
MONOPOLY OR
COMPETITION - WHICH,

If Assistant Attorney General Thur
man Arnold, at Washington, hopes to
convince congress that the oil industry
should be a public utility, he will have
TO polish off his arguments To a smooth
er fit than he has achieved to date He
will, for instance, have to decide wheth-
er he is arguing for or against monop-
oily.
In speech in which he declared price
fixing agreements and coercion are
gradually changing this country into
an industrial autocracy," the assistant
attorney general gave the impression
that he bitterly resents monopolies. He
gave the impression, that IS, until you
study his words:
"No one can deny that the marketing
system for gasoline has put the major
oil companies in command of an econom-
ic toll bridge and most wasteful one,
shot through with unnecessary duplica-
tion of filling stations, advertising costs
and service costs
1t seems to us that real monopoly
would do away with duplication of fill
ing stations and service costs, and would
make large advertising appropriations
unnecessary. There is duplication only
where there Is mpetition-and adver-
tislng grows larger as merchandiser
tries to sell more goods than his competi-
tor.
Perhaps what Mr. Arnold wants to
do is set up political autocracy in place
of the industrial autocracy" he views
with so much alarm; or perhaps he
wants to establish real monopoly, just
to show the boys how. He could do it if
he had power to say there couldn't be
more than one service station every 10
miles, nor more than one ad in the pa
pers every week.
If Mr.. Arnold hopes to make congress
believe he hates monopolies, he'll have
to forget his hate of duplication, for
the two hates do not go together.
Or it might even be we'll if some of
Mr.. Arnold's compatriots, whether in
state or federal government, would de-
vote a bit of time to trying to reduce
the cost of gasoline to the average mo-
torist, who pays about one-third of his
gasoline money to the government in
taxes.

IT'S STILL GAMBLING
(Selma Irrigator)

SiXty-siX million dollars is not large
sum of money in these days of billion
dollar financing but it represents about
Sll per capita if divided among the peo-
pie of California. If you didn't wager
your S11 share on horse races during
the fiscal year ending June 80, 1888,
someone else did it for you with results
that were probably the same as YOU
would have experienced.
The pari-mutuel machines established
at the eighteen race tracks where bet
ting is legalized recorded a grand total
OF S66, ,142, 1853 for the twelve months.
The states share of h Sc wagers
amounted to $2,661, 1922, the highest
revenue from this source enioyed bv
any state. More than half of the money
Wagered in California last year was bet
at Santa Anita the figure for that track
being S37, ,889,49 Bay Meadows and
Ianforan were the leading tracks in the
north. The Los Angeles county fair at
Pomona recorded total betting gate of
S1,754,000 for the comparatively short
time that the fair was in progress last
September. Fresno's $35, ,243 seems insig-
nificant in comparison.
The pari-mutuel system originated in
France, as the name implies, and was
not popular when it was first introduce
ed in this country.
II betting is to be legalized the pari-
mutuel system seems preferable to the
catch-as-catch-can" method. But gam
Ding by any name is still gambling.

What | Get For
Supporting
Governor Merriam
By Phillip Knishts,
Il CenhrO City Engineer


I have been asked on several oc-
casions, just what I expect to get
out of supporting Governor Mer-
riam. Well, I'll tell you. I entered
this campaign as matter OF prln-
ciple and for much the same rea-
sons that l volunteered my services
for the World war. I am convinced
the nation is in greater danger
from internal disintegration being
brought on by its class hatreds,
economic strife, contempt of morals,
mockery of truth, derision OF honor,
and from being sold out" through
the radical delusions of something
for nothing" at government ex-
pense" being offered to the nation
today.
I am supporting Governor Mer-
riam because I am convinced he is
in substantial accord with my prin-
ciples of good government. I shall
support other candidates for the
same reason. We shall need more
volunteers actuated by similar
principles and purposes if we are
to maintain the government of
this nation in the hands of its
people. They will get out of it
what I get out of it; the satisfac-
ton of working for worthy cause,
and of winning battle to main
tain truth, honor and morals as
heritage to be passed on to COM
ing generations. And l am happy
to state that such volunteers are
springing up all around us. (Adv0
Imperial Valley press., 1938-08-22

The best propaganda, after all,
is to keep quiet and attend our
own business" That is just the kind
of propaganda that the aggressive,
bustling dictatorship cannot ever
put out; for the basic philosophy
of the modern dictatorship compels
it to a leather-lunged meddler.
The bulk of the people aren't
easily fooled. In the long run, the
nation that goes quietly ahead do
ing business in the traditional man.
ner can have little fear from the
frantic and blatant campaignings
of the totalitarianS.

'the homelieSt girl on your list
He explained his request by saying
that all the girls he employed soon
had bunch of men hanging around
taking up their time and interfer-
ing with their work. This time he
was going to get one SO homely that
the men wouldn't notice her.
Mr.. Gregg looked over the appli-
cants carefully. Not a homely face
could he find among them. There
was one, however, whose features
though pleasant, were plain. Her
dress was neat and inconspicious.
Old enough, too, that she might ap-
preciate the job and not allow her
self to be distracted from her work.
He explained to her the require
ments as to efficiency and close
attention, and stated he thought she
was just the person the producer
was looking for, adding that per-
haps she should not use lip-stick or
rouge. She never did, was the reply.
Then, highly pleased at the implied
compliment to her efficiency, she
departed for an interview with the
producer.
Several days passed and Mr..
Gregg heard nothing from the
young woman. He called her on the
telephone.
Did you get the position he
inquired.
"I should say not" an indignant
voice answered.
why, what's the matter?"
Then in a choked voice:
Mr.. Gregg, I don't see why you
picked me out over all the others"
Naturally, Mr.. Gregg was at a
