Bound by Ourselves

The simple truth is, were not
going ahead because we cant.
We're bound-aS CULVER was
bound-by plgmles.
But these pigmieS are Of our
own creation. T hey are the
petty weaknesses within our
selves, and they've bound us.
not with the obvious shackles of
big blunders, but with the cob
web filaments of thought and
habit.
There's your own life. Long
ago that binding process started
- perhaps W h 2 n you were a
child - in incidents so trivial
they didn't seem 20 matter.
For years, now you've prob
ably been proud of being
careful person, and openly
contemptuouS Of persons who
weren't. But those persons are
going ahead. Yes they make
mistakes. Get into awful jams.
Nevertheless, bit by bit, they're
forging on and getting a lot out
OF life as they do so.
Grow Stronger
But every day you are more
firmly bound by the invisible
6laments Of your own fear.
Fear isn't the only blind.
There's lazineSs. What beautiful
excuses we can find for being
lazy. Sentimentality-that per-
nicious sugar coating for inertia
of body and soul! Conceit -
most of US have enough OF that
20 bind a dozen Gullivers!
Malice - self-indulgence - the
list is endless.
They all sneak up on US while
we sleep, as the midgets did on
Gulliver. And we wake up 10
find ourselves held fast by the
things we thought didn't matter
the petty habits we were sure
we could break whenever we
wished

How strange, you thought.

Like Gulliver, we all start out

Invisible
ShackIes
BY ELSIE ROBINSON

REMEM DER WHEN you
were a little lad and discovered
that old book of "Gulllver $
TraVels?" How your eyes
popped at that unforgettable
picture of Gulliver bound!
There he lay, fiat on his back,
looking as big as Carnera-with
the midget Lilliputians swarm
ing over him by the thousands.
He had just awakened and his
eyes were bewildered and furi-
Gus. as well they might be, for
he couldn't move an inch While
he slept the tlny people had
sneaked up on him and bound
him fast.
Not with ordinary shackleS,
for these they could not handle
but by countless filaments no
thicker I h ian cobwebs, which
held him tighter than chains.
He could have broken any one
of them with a flick of his fin
ger, but against their united
strength his huge body battled
in vain

and businessmen in his considera-

A private in World War 1, he had
American Legion support when,
after working his way through law
school, he was elected United States
Senator from Washington State.
Term ended, he was appointed Fed

Schwellenbach's favorite recrea-
ton is a good cigar over good

horseplay, and grinned cheerfully
when, visiting his birthplace, Supe-
rior, Wis, he was dressed in tribal
bonnet and made a chief in the
Chippewa Indian tribe.
This sense of humor and his ex-
perience as lawmaker and Judge

Second - if you cannot do that
the law says that you may be repre-
scented by a relative or friend or
service organizations that have been
recognized. These service organiza-
lions do splendid work, and they
give you the finest service. They
have had years of experience in
these matters, and are equipped to
aid the veteran efficiently and at
no cost. Failing in this, then there
are good reputable lawyers who will
advise and assist you. In the long

dental, and may be disclosed only
to a duly constituted police or court
official upon the submission of a
certified copy either of an indict-
ment returned against the claimant
or a warrant issued for his arrest.
The only other way information
may be made public, except upon the
request of the veteran, is when it
is required by the processes of
United States court in any suit or
legal action; when required by any
agency of the United States Govern
ment; in all proceedings in the ma
ture of an inquest into the mental
competence of claimant and in any
judicial proceedings where such dis
closure is deemed necessary and
proper.
Question: What if an attorney or
some other person offers to aid
veteran in getting a pension? What
is done about that?
Answer: Any attorney at law in
good standing or any competent per-
son who is not an attorney at law,
if not prohibited by law, be per-
mitted to practice as a pension at
torney or pension-claims agent, re-
spectively, if citizen of the United
States or has declared his intentions
of becoming a citizen, and is of good
moral character and is in good
repute. Before any person admitted
to practice as an attorney or an
agent can represent a claimant
there must be filed with Veterans
Administration duly executed
power of attorney The power of
attorney must be signed by the
claimant or his guardian in the pres
ence of two witnesses, neither of
whom is the agent or attorney, and
be acknowledged before an officer
authorized to administer oaths for
general purposes. The attorney in the
case can not notarize any papers
connected with a claim. Any stand
ard power of attorney may be exc
cuted by the claimant or his
guardian before two witnesses and
notarized. However, it is
recommended that the power of at
torney shall not undertake to grant
to the attorney the right to substi-
tute another attorney.
Question: How does the attorney
or agent get paid for his work?
Answer: It is unlawful for any
person whether he be an agent or
attorney admitted to practice before
the Veterans Administration or not,
to charge or collect directly or in |
from a claimant or other
beneficiary any fee for services in
respect to claim. The law provides
that the Administrator may by regu-

AT the ripe age of eight, Lewis B.
Schwellenbach, as a newsboy on the
streets of Spokane, Wash, capital
of the Inland Empire, began learn
ing about business and labor.
Now so, newly-appointed Secre-
tary of Labor, the 2OO-pound
Schwellenbach is calling upon labor
and management to settle disputes
peacefully. He has begun his duties
by ordering officers in his depart
ment to administer the law as writ
ten.
His kindly gray eyes see the De-
partment of Labor as an institution
to promote the interests of workers.
