Social Security System
Answers Workers Yearning.
Next to the love of freedom,
the American worker yearns for
security-security for the wife
and children if the breadwinner
is lost, security for the family
if the job is lost, security for the
old couple when youth and
strength are gone. The New
Deals answer to this profound
yearning has been the Social
Security Sytem, with 50,000000
workers protected by old-age and
survivors insurance.
Twenty-eight million workers
covered by unemployment inSur-
ance, $3,000,00000O already paid
out under all benefit plans, and
pension payments at the rate of
$85, 100000 a year by the end
of 1910. Year by year, the Demo-
cratic administration is perfecting
and extending the Social Security
Act, rearing higher and higher
this tower of economic strength
and social justice.
And Wendell Willkie would
tear down this magnificent struc-
ture-tear it down in the most
inSidious and subtle way-tear it
down in the way tried by Mr..
Landon, by impairing the peo-
pies faith and truth in the So
cial security system. For Mr..
Willkie has said, and I quote him:
IF you return this administra-
tion to power, you will never COL
lect a dime on your social Sc
curity."
My friends, it is difficult to de-
eide which is the more reprehen-
Slble phrase of this Willkie
statement-the effort to impugn
the honor and credit of the
United States Treasury, or the
effort to torment the minds and
destroy the contentment of those
who are growing old. 1t is hard
to understand how any one who
aspireS to high Office could make
such a baseless charge, but there
is this possible explanation. In
1910, an Ohio utility company
established pension system. For
20 years, its employees gave the
best that was in them, with the
just expectation of pension
when they grew old and worn.
Then, in 1880. shortly after the
company was taken over by Com
monwealth & Southern, the
board of directors, upon which
Mr.. Willkie served, voted to
drop the pension system, voted to
deny pensions already earned
even to men who were about to
retire. The case was taken to
the courts, and litigation dragged
on until 1897. when legal tech
nicalities finally triumphed over
ethics in contest between plain
workers and a mighty corpora
ton. The Supreme Court of Ohio
deplored the result, but had to
confine Hself to the law. Dur
ing most of this litigation Mr..
Willkie was president of the con-
trolling Commonwealth & South
ern Corp.
BY their deeds shall they be
known. Wendell Willkie has
sought to judge the conduct of
the American Government to-
ward social security by the de-
plorable standards of his own
past actions. According to his own
past actions, the American peo-
pie certainly will judge Wendell
Willkie.
OF course, the Republican cam
didate says that he is for more
employment and better wages
and so is every one else. But what
was his pre-campaign attitude
