William Aberhart,
Social Credit Premier
Of Alberta, Dies
Had Tried Since 1885
To Install Dividend
PIon in Province
BY the Associated Press.


VANCOUVER, British Columbia
May 24.-William Aberhart, 64-year-
old Premier OF Alberta who had trieC
unsuccessfuliy since 1885 to install
system of social credit in his
province, died yesterday after q
weeks illness.
The Premier entered a hospita,
May IS when he became seriously
i'll with a liver ailment while or
vacation here
He is survived by his widow and
/ two married daughters.
Born December 30, 1873. on farm
near Kippen, Ontario. Mr.. Aberhart
first came into political and eco
nomic prominence in August, 1885
when he took over the premiership
of Alberta as head of a party advo-
eating the worlds first social credit
| government.
Promised Monthly Dividends.
He had electrified the voters of
Alberta with his promise of monthly
dividends of S25 for every man and
woman. Basing his ideas on the
social credit theories of Maj. c. H
Douglas, the Scottish engineer, Mr.
Aberhart had said he would i'm
plement new kind of financial
economy through circulation of
credit, using the national wealth.
AS result, his social credit party
won Sc of the 63 seats in the 1885
elections. Mr.. Aberhart himself was
not a candidate, but true to a pre-
election promise, the tall, portly
school teacher, then known chiefly
for his religious broadcasts, took
over the premiership when a seat
was later found for him. He
promised social credit dividends
within 18 months.
Social credit is IN reality a scien-
tiflc method of distributing the
goods and services which we have
/ in abundance in our province to the
greatest advantage of everyone of
our citizens" the Premier said soon
after taking office.
Legislation Ruled Out BY Courts.
He explained that this would be
done by the method CT basic divi-
dends, issued monthly, so that every
bona fide citizen would be assured
of at least food and shelter.
But when Mr.. Aberhart tried to
put the social credit system into op-
GRAFTON, his legislation ran into a
series of disallowances on consti-
tutional grounds. His bills were re-
jected in the Provincial and Domin-
ion courts. Appeals to the Privy
Council only brought more disal-
loWances.
In spite of the setbacks, his gov
ernment was returned to power in
the l940 Provincial election with the
Premier still his fiery self, berating
the so big Shots international
finance and the Dominion govern
ment, charging that they were in
terfering with his plans.

LONDON, Jan. 21.-Red-eyed and
on the verge Of collapse from ex-

digging in the rubble and debris of
that London schoolhouse this after

They're digging with their hands
and with their hearts, too, for more
than one of these dirt-covered,
gaunt faced men and women have
a child in there somewhere buried

Dozens of bodies of these children

German light bombers swooped out
of the clouds at rocftop level and
spotted their bomb at the only sec
ton in that large schoolhouse which
chanced to be occupied at the
moment.
This correspondent has seen about
all the human tragedy in the book,

exactly how to tell this story. How

Senate Group Votes
$3.50 Raise 10 Police,
Firemen, Teachers
McCorron PIon for
District Employees Wins
Over Burton Proposal
BY ]. A. O'LEARY.

The Senate District Committee
today voted a favorable report
on the McCarran proposal for a
fiat $3.50 pay increase for police
men, flremen and school teach
ers for the duration of the war.
The three groups of District en-
ployes were omitted from the gen.
eral temporary pay increases grant
ed other Government workers in
December. Hence, the police, fire
and teacher increases would be ret
roactive to December /.
Although Senator Burton, Repub-
lcan, of Ohio agreed with his coll
leagues that some action should be
taken to give the three groups an
increase Immediately, he urged a
different approach because he
feared Senator McCarran's solution
might not get through Congress
quickly. He advocated:
l. Giving the teachers the 10 per
cent increase extending to April 80,
already granted other employees
whose hours cannot be computed for
the payment OF overtime
Giving policemen and firemen
the $500 raise in the maximum
grade, which was approved by both
houses last year, but was vetoed by
the President.
Senator Burton's substitute plan
was rejected.
Senator McCarran argued that
while his fiat $3.50 raise would
amount to an increase of about Is
per cent in the total salary budgets
of the police, fire and school serv-
ices, 1t would give the greatest bene-
fit to the lower paid employees.

muttering, 7 want my mummy and
1t was your Mary"
In the late afternoon and again
early today I watched the rescue
squad methodically explore the
wreckage, digging tunnel here,
piling up broken walls there. The
only arc light ever shown in the
London area since September, 1899,
cast weird shadows until still anoth-
er piercing whine of the AFRAID
sirens sent chill into us but did
not for moment halt the work of
extricating and exploring
"Only this morning before I went
off to the factory my Hattie was
telling me about going to see The
Dream and she was all excited"
reflected one mother, grimly, as she
watched. "She was going to have
lunch at school with the other chill
dren whose parents have war jobs.
And now, and now"
An old man came up to me and
began to cry: Every Sunday I used
to give her a penny, and one had a
hole in it, and now they've found
one girl with such penny in her
pocket, and that's how we identi-
fed her."
Tight-lipped and so tense that
she seemed about to snap, one
mother turned away saying: why
cid I allow her to come back to
London? Why didn't I take the
advice of the government and keep
her with other evacuated children
in the country? Oh, those barba-
rians, bombing schoolhouse all by
itself in residential district"
We've paid terrible price, but
they'll pay and they'll pay. those
murderers," said a civil defense
worker, returning to dig with leader
arms.

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Senator Wheeler, Democrat, of
Montana and other legislators have
demanded that Congress be given a
full report on shipments of rubber
from the United States to Russia,
Great Britain and other countries.
'If Great Britain Is still getting
rubber from Ceylon. don't see why
we are still shipping rubber to Great
