ing now is done about it, and like
Hitler, we pay bounty, to the
mother and child, even though I'M
der another name. Nowadays, in
stead of making the responsible
party support the child, the burden
is shifted to the taxpayers to pay
for another mans fun. All that is
done is to make an application to
the Welfare office, and get a
monthly allotment. No court action
is taken to discourage further Of

are shifted to those who do the

other people over 80 who are work

portunity to do so. 1t is a remark
able thing, when we see so many
young fellows Dragging about
drawing workmen's compensation
when everybody knows that any
body who wants to work, can get
something to do.
When a man with a family, who
claims he needs a job, but won't
work unless he is paid a weekly
salary in excess of his ability to
produce, applies for relief, his case
is worthy of mighty close scrutiny
1t used to be, men were willing to
work, and asked for a job at pre-
vailing wages. Now when a labor
er is asked if he wants job, he
either asks what kind of job, OF
what will you pay?

We often hear nowadays of
something else that didn't happen
often 40 years ago. People with
adult children begin expecting off
spring. All over the coastland are
examples of new babies coming to
homes whose youngest children are
finishing high school. There was
an old saying when I was a boy
that many babies followed a big
fishing. Perhaps it meant that peo-
pie were more prosperous and
more careless. 1t seems a fine
thing to me that if people feel fl
nancially able to care for a child,
they should want more children in
their home. The practice of birth
control may have meant a lot for
some individuals, but it has done
much to bring down the white
races as whole. While the white
races are growing smaller through
the limitations of families, the
brown and black races have prac-
ticed no birth control. Consequent
ly they are continuing with greater
rapidity to outnumber the races
better equipped by enlightment and
wealth to serve world progress.
We used to throw up our hands
because Hitler encouraged bas-
tardy as a means Of charging the
population Of Germany. Horrible,
our people saidi Yet we are not
now very far away from the same
