America, A Nation OF Law

THE United States is one of the few countries where
government by law is still the order.
In many other nations government by decree OF the
administration which is in power at the tme has sue
ceeded the orderly methods which representative gov
ernment pursues in making laws
Even heretofore republican France has fallen into
the decree habit The Nazi dominated Petain regime
issued retroactive decree under which the leaders OF
it's national defense of few weeks ago now are be-
ing prosecuted for declaring and wagng war against
Germany.
Practically all Europe both the totalitarian gov
ernments and those outside the axis ruling by de-
crees. Every day sees new one. The citizen has no
way of knowing what the law of tomorrow may be.
Indeed in some countries he has assurance that MS
conduct and actions which may be perfectly legal to-
day. will not be oulawed tomorrow by some retroac-
tive decree of the administration in control of his gov
ernment.
Americans should be appreciative Of the fact that
even the humbest citizen still rely upon guaran-
tees established by the law of the land and need not
fear that he will be the victim of some newly pro-
claimed statute arbitrarily promulgated by dlcta-
torial administration of the moment.

task is one of holding what he has,
or substantial portion Of what he
had in 1896. For Mr.. Willkie it's
a matter of counter attack, for the
bulk of the in-between voters used
to be Republican.
There is an issue this year whose
weight no one can appraise at this
time, namely, the third term. 1t
plays directly into the hands OF
the Republicans, yet it is raised
through the denomination of their
most formidable foe. It can only be
added that the Republicans will
probably need all they can get,
middle-class reaction, Willkie, third
term and all, for they must bring
about net shift of approximately
one voter in every five who voted
Democratic in 1896 if they hope to
win in November.

National defense is the foremost
objective of the country at this time
and it is clear that straight forward
legislation along this line is sorely
needed. We can have no adequate
national defense unless subvervise
activities are entirely eliminated. I
favor outlawing all tissues" except
Americanism and clamping firmly
down on those who would destroy
us by working from within.
"a national lottery, in my opin-
ion, would be a sensible plan. The
proceeds would go to national de-
fense and our ever mounting tax
load would be materially lessened.
II also favor confiscation OF
French ships, gold and other prop
erty now held in this country. A
momentary value could be arrived
at and the sum credited to the war
debts owed this nation by France.
Patriotic groups and organiza-
tions have urged the teaching o1
Anericanism in the public schools
I heartily favor legislation toward
that end.

Really Worth While

TWO of the most valuable and constructive activities
of the New Deal administration are the Home Own
ers Loan Corporation and the Federal Housing Ad-
ministration
The former has enabled tens Of thousands Of Amer
leans to save their homes from foreclosure.
The latter has made it possible for other tens of
thousands to own their homes Most Of these are fa
lies who could not have financed a home under any
previously existing plan.
Together they have provided the way by which
large part of our citzenry consists of home owners
that otherwise would have been in the tenant class
Widespread home ownership constitutes one Of the
strongest bulwarks against radicahsm 1t IS also
great stimulator Of patriotism

November, is made up of the great
er part of the small independent
insurance agents, school-teachers -
the list might be run on endlesslv.
One could take a roster of the
insurance policy holders in the ma
ton and have perhaps the best
possible single list of middle-class
Americans.
Through hard work, business
cleverness, thrift and saving they
attempt to get ahead in the world.
Through the medium of insurance
they seek a short cut to building
up estates to pass on to their de-
scendants. They are conservative
in the broader, less-political sense;
they seek ever to conserve" the
things which they create or accu-
mulate or for any other reason hold
dear.
The argument is often made, and
with almost unanswerable logic, that
these were the voters who swung
the balance to Mr.. Roosevelt in 1892.
At that time they were truly fright
ened by the depression, the effects
of which were bearing personally
and tragically upon many Of them.
They were in peril of losing their
homes and their savings, not to
say the very system under which
they lived. They wanted a rescuer,
and Mr. Roosevelt offered his serv-
ices They wanted action and Mr.
Roosevelt offered program
DEMANDS MET
A similar argument is made that
this same group helped roll up the
unprecedented majority for Mr..
Roosevelt in 1886. The action they
demanded had been supplied, abun-
dainty. Programs instituted by Mr..
Roosevelt had saved their homes,
restored the bigger part of their
bank accounts and savings and res
cued their way of life.
But by 1888 a reaction had set
in, as witness the increase in Re
publican strength in the House and
Senate, local situations to the con-
trary Notwithstanding. It was evi-
dent then that the reaction had
come in the middle-class group.
Between 1886 and 1888 things
hadn't gone so well between Main
ST. and Washington. Labor laws,
tax bills, new regulations of vari-
Gus kinds, the Presidents attempt
to enlarge the Supreme Court and
the subsequent move to purge"
dissenting members from the party
these and other things came along
to mar the happy picture Of 1896.
What the situation will be next
fall in this vastly important group
of voters no one can do more than
guess now. They are hard to sound
out, even by the most reliable sys-
TENS of poll-taking. One can only
sur1nise as to whether they are
swayed very much by campaign ar
guments or simply move in a trend
generated more by circumstances
than oratory.
Mr.. Willkie already has indicated
that he will make his appeal sub
stantially to this classic farmers
who own or control their land, to
small business people and salary
earners, to those with personal
stake in the American way of life"

Gov. O'Conor Asks
NOn-Residents To
Register By 18th
Estimates That 1919 Of
Aliens Of State Still Must
Comply With Regulations

Governor Herbert r. O'Conor
today sounded a final note of warn
ing to non-citizens residing in the
State concerning the Alien Regis
tration Regulations.
This regulation must be COM
piled with before December 26, he
pointed out, as violation of this
Federal statute is punishable by
six months in prison, $1,000 fine,
or both. AS of the end of Novem-
Der, approximately $4,000 non-citi-
zens had registered at the Post
Office of the State. While no def
mite estimates are available of the
total number of aliens in the State,
it is felt that approximately 10
per cent still remain to be regis
tered.
Briefly, Governor O'Conor ex-
planned, the Alien Registration Act
requires that all aliens Of both
sexes and all ages be registered
and finger-printed in the Post
Office of the State. Alien children
under Ia years of age can be regis
tered by the parents or guardians,
but need not appear in person to
be finger-printed until within 30
days after reaching the age of IA.

whose War Risk Insurance was
converted to 20-Year Endowments
are now receiving those endow-
ments in amounts up to $4,000
and many of them are .reinvesting
this money Immediately in Single

One reason is because these con-
tracts are the major conservation
plans guaranteeing to have certain
values at definite future dates.
Consider too, that U. S. Govern
ment Bonds in an amount approx
mating $4OO,000,OOO will soon be

surance companies will be asked to
take much of this money. The ex-
pected changes will be in relation

THE MONEY TREE
BY Ethel M. Troy

This discussion is directed pri-
marily toward those whose life
insurance programs are incomplete
and who therefore expect to pur-
chase insurance at some future
date.
In informed insurance circles
definite changes in insurance poll
cies are expected at the first of
the year. The investment features
of insurance are being utilized t.
their fullest capacities by the pub
lie and since insurance is specifical-
ly intended to feed widows and or
phans and old men and women, the
investment advantages must be
subordinated to these prior rights
and responsibilities.

Young Job Seekers
Learn Importance OF
Social Security Number

Young men and young women
who are looking for work with
some business or industrial con-
Germ are learning that a social
security card is an important part
of preparation for their first jobs.
Every employer who is subject
to the law wants each of his
employees to have a social secur-
ity number. Why? Because the
employer is required to report to
the government the wages he pays
each worker so that those wages
can be credited to the proper
social security account. The en-
ployer helps to pay for old-age
and survivors insurance. Every
three months he sends to the
United States Treasury his own
pay roll tax and the wage tax
of his employees. Along with
these taxes, the employer sends
the government a wage report.
This report must show the exact
name and social security account
number of each worker he has
employed at any time in the three
months covered by the report and
the amount of wages each worker
has earned. From this report the
Social Security Board gets the
wage records it credits to each
workers account.
