Graf Zeppelin landed at its home port
at 10:24 Thursday night after a
flight of fifty-seven hours over south
eastern Europe, the Mediterranean
and northern Africa.
It was estimated that the huge air
ship had traveled about 3,400 miles
since it left here early Tuesday after
noon. It carried twenty paying pas
sengers and a quantity. of mail drop
ped at cities along its route.
The dirigible cruised southwest
ward across France, then south over
Portugal and Spain to northern Af
rica. Its nose was then pointed to
ward home, proceeding by way of the
Rhone valley of France.
The next long flight scheduled for
the Graf Zeppelin is a second trans
Atlantic flight to start probably on
May 15. Beside its previous visit-to
the United States, the dirigible has
made a long cruise over the eastern
Mediterranean.
. -Tliurs,
Not so many years ago, possibly
twenty-five, insurance was looked up
on as something "For Man Only"
and .officers of most of the legal re
serve companies were of the opinion
that women were not desirable life
insurance risks.
Formerly, when asked why she
did not carry insurance, a woman
usually replied, "Well, just because,"
but to-day wiman has advanced be
yond the stage where she is not ex
pected to know the reason and i3
realizing her importance in the
world and in the family circle.
While times have changed and
with the passing years the viewpoint
of both the insurer, and the insured,
it has been uphill work to convince
woman that it is her duty to carry
insurance.

place where she is able to shoulder
responsibility as well as man.
If taken merely from the thrift
point of view, woman should be in
terested in insurance. It means pro
tection for old age and disability as
well as maintaining protection for
her family. It does happen that we
find a housewife who, because she
had not learned the meaning of
thrift, will disapprove of spending
money for insurance with the foolish
remark, "We are young, why spend

New Farm Bill
Passed in House
by 367-34 Vote
Only Three Minor Changes Made in
Proposal as It Was Instroduced ;
Sent to the Senate.
Washington, April 24. The new
farm relief bill having the support
of the Hoover administration was
, passed by the house today Just 10
days after the convening of the spec
I ial session of congress, which was
'called primarily to enact farm legis
lation. The vote was 367 to 34, only two
republicans being among those in op
J position Tinkham (Mass.) and Staf

woman should carry insurance, I
would say:
First She owes it to herself.
Second It creates a good habit of
saving, as it compels her to lay aside
a certain amount each month which,
otherwise might be spent for a new
hat or dress which, perhaps, she
could do without.
Third It protects her- from be
coming a dependent. '
It is now nothing unusual to find
in a questionaire, used in making
application for a position, this quiry.
'Do you carry protection?" and it is
of the different forms of insurance
that we wish to speak. In the early
days one who carried insurance had
to "die to get it." The endowment
policy was a giant stride in advance.
and still later has come the annuity
either paid-up or by installment
where one has "to live to get it."

advocates contended would enable the

It would create a federal farm board
with a revolving fund of five hun

loans to co-operative associations.
Three Minor Changes.
The support given it by both re
publicans and democrats brought the
bill through the house unchanged in
any major respect from the form in
which it came from the agriculture
committee. The three minor changes
that were made were proposed by
committee members to clarify the
language of the bill.
The vote found most of the former
advocates of the debenture plan and
the equalization fee ranged along
side their former opponents In sup- :
port of a bill that is minus both of ,
those features. The majority of those
who voted against the bill were ad
vocates of one or both of those pro
posals who still hope that the bill as
it finally emerges from the senate
may be changed in several respects.
Neither the debenture plan nor the
equalization fee came to a vote in the
house. Both were offered but points
of order were sustained against them.
With the exception of these, and a
proposal by Representative Crisp
(dem., Ga.) to make immediately
available one hundred million dollars
of the revolving fund, all of the other
amendments of the more than two
score offered were rejected by votes.
The Crisp proposal also was declined
on a point of order.
Changes Shouted Down.
The various other amendments
which swamped the speaker's table
were voted down with a machine-like
precision with the administration
followers always keeping a large ma
jority of voters on the floor and many
of the democrats joining them in
shouting down the suggested changes.

bill before an almost unanimous re

In conclusion I wish to emphasize
some of the things insurance does
for women:
It inculates the habit of thrift
and economy.
It affords an opportunity to
provide a fund for use in later
life by means of systematic
monthly savings during the income-producing
years.
It gives her an opportunity to
purchase an investment on the
monthly payment plan, and at
the same time, eliminate the
risk and hazard of investment.
It helps her to resist the temp
tation of buying worthless
stocks.
It provides money for her at
a time when her ability to earn
may be impaired.
It gives her a feeling of inde

While the session was not out

the actions of both houses during
their long grind, the consensus of
all agreed.
Without Qualification, the banking
situation was held uppermost in the
minds of members of both diets, and
the majority concluded the session
with full belief that a more adequate
solution may be gained when a spec
ial session is called at the conclusion
of the governor's inquihy.
164 Bills Signed.
In all approximately 230 bills,
some new. some in repeal of previous
statutes and the majority amenda

two houses.
Of this number 164 have been ac

possibly 50 more still remain in his
hands to be disposea or wunin iue

Included in this number are three

legislature at the last minute.

In this connection, the summary of

will become effective as soon as ap

This change is one of a number
which Governor Weaver recommend
ed in his inaugural message for the
purpose of eliminating duplicated ac
the public service and enlisting the
ticities under the code, simplifying
help of constitutional elective offi
cers in carrying on the state's busi

the same basis as it has heretofore
been conducted, subject to whatever
changes he may decide upon after he
has had an opportunity to familiarize
himself with details of the work.
T. W. Bass, chief of the bureau,
may be retained permanently under
the state treasurer as a special assist
