RETlREMENTs At S. YEARS

Reduction from 65 years to IS
as the age for retirement under
the Social Security Act is being
urged by conventions of labor
unions.
The motive is plain. 1t fits in
with the unions understandable
great concern with the problems
of depression periods: the over
supply of labor, and the tragic
plight of the older worker, when
Jobs are scarce.
The hackers of these reso-
lutions can make good case-up
to d point: At the current level
of wages and living costs, Social
Security pays too little to tempt
very many workers to desert the
labor force. Should t h ere be a
depression, it pays enough to ease
the cruel competition for j o b 8
and to take care of those least
able to fend for themselves
But there are some other
factors which spell caution in
large letters:
l. For the practicable future,
with production the worlds great
need, can the United States af-
ford to set up any inducements
to unnecessarily early retirement?
Some of the most valuable work,
even in factories, is done by men
and women past 55-valuable,
both to themselves and to society.
2. To advance the retirement
age ten years would mean also
that the period for accommodating
the necessary reserves is shorten
ed ten years. Could this be done
on short order without damage
to the soundness of the whole
system?
3. The United States, be-
cause of increased longevity, is
becoming "a nation of elders"
as DR.. N. w. Shock of the United
States Public Health Service puts
it. In. 1850, 12.4 per cent of the
population were 45 or older; in
1910, 26.5. By 1880, statisticians
predict the percentage will reach
so. Can the United States estab-
lish a program which might, in
effect, pension half its people?
Something more flexible seems
called for to meet the acute pro-

blems Of depreasions. Perhaps
some day the general retirement
age can and should be moved
ahead. But it is certainly nothing
to rush into.-Monitor. &

their hands and cxclaim. "Oh, but l
wouldn't have the patience to train
a dog" Patience is necessary, but
not the great degree of patience that
most people imagine. Fifteen minutes
IL day of persistence and gentle
schooling will show definite results
in comparatively short time. There
is no magic formula involved. The
great factor which works in favor of
the trainer is the dogs anxiety to be
petted and praised. This is the prac-
tically universal canine characteris-
tic which professional dog folk speak
of as "the will to please" Therefore.
they praise and reward the dog when
he does the right thing, and scold or
ignore him when he disobeys. 1t is
this will to please trait which
makes the dog the easiest animal ir
the world TO teach and makes it pos
sible for anyone so minded to max,

the Guards right to control civilian
use of the structure, have threatened
to try to sell the armory to the
Federal government unless their
own control is clearly established.
