About the time We learn to

Thanksgiving Day

THANKSGIVING is an ex-
traordinary holiday. 1t is strict
ly American. Nothing like it
ever existed in any other part
of the world.
1t is a national holiday, yet
it commentaries no battle, cele-
brates no victory, honors no ma
tional hero. 1t is religious holi-
day, yet it is not of any church,
creed, sect or denomination. It
exemplifies, however, the funda-
mental essence of everything
graf, good and wonderful about
the American way of life.
THANKSGIVING DAY was
first set aside by the Pilgrim
Fathers as a day of fasting and
prayerful thanks for the bounty
which was theirs. 1t was design
ed TO give spiritual focus to the
opportunities and incentives
that surround a free people in
a free land.
Here is the foundation of
Americas greatness. 1t was the
sublime faith in this concept
that caused America to grow and
develop-and so long as the
American people keep the faith,
they will stay strong and free.
1t was this spirit of THANKS
GIVING that opened up wild
erneSS. 1t was the spark that
won our independence from for
eign tyrants, that spanned con-
tinent, discovered, invented, de-
veloped, improved, produced and
distributed a greater abundance
amongst us that all the rest of
the peoples of the earth have
known.
All this was possible because
| we recognized that God, not gov
ernment, provides all things.
| Our Founding Fathers made this
very clear in the Declaration of
| Independence. in which they de-
clared that all men "are endow.
ed by their Creator with certain
unalienable rights" and that ''to
secure these rights, Governments
| are instituted among Men, de-
| riVing their just powers from the
consent of the governed"
On THANKSGIVING DAY we
should renew our knowledge
and understanding of this great
heritage that is ours, and recog-
| nize that the whole American
record disputes the claims Of
socialism, communism and the

THIS WEEK
In
WASHINGTON

The 84th Congress, whatever
it's political complexion, will
again tackle the controversial
problem Of federal aid for the
nations sick and ailing, named
by it's opponents as "socialized
medicine" and which under the
Eisenhower plan is called medi-
cal insurance.
The President has announced
that he will again send his plan
to the Congress for considera-
ton, the same plan the 83rd Con-
gress refused to enact into law.
This brings into focus the tre-
mendouS advancement which has
been made during the past
twenty years in so-called fringe
benefits" to the individual
American citizen. The United
States Chamber of Commerce
Jumps these benefits under four
general headings Social
Security, Pensions, Insurance,
Vacations and Sick leave. Costs
OF these benefits during 1853
totalled approximately $32 bill
lions, according to an estimate
made by the United States
Chamber Of Commerce. In 1929.
for instance, the costs for the
same benefits totaled only SIS
billions.
According to the Chamber.
estimates made after a statistical
study, show that cost of private
industry in employer payments
totalled $25 billion. or an esti-
mated 1870 of the $164.5 billion
total of all wages and salaries for
the year.
Federal, State and local gov
ernment fringe benefits were
estimated at 81 billion, or 21R
of wages and salaries paid to
public employees.
Largest amount of the employ
er costs included vacations, holi-
days and sick leave with pay,
which accounted for $500 of
wages and salaries, or total of
$11.8 billion. About 1880 of
wages and salaries, or $6.5 bill
lion went for agreed payments
under collective bargaining,
such as pensions and insurance.
Under such programs as Social
Security, unemployment COM
pensation, workmen's compensa-
government retirement and 9TH
