(A Legal Reserve Old Line Company) Announce the appointment of V. H. BREEDEN as District Ma: ager for Cass. Otoe, Nemaha. Rich ardson. Pawnee and Johnson counties, with offices at Lotis lie, Nebraska. The Reliance has gTown about twice as fast as the next faster'; growing Old Line Insurance Com pany in America for its age, and has done it without consolidation or group insuiance. Its record is far from being equalled for growth and progressiveness by any company. Alfred M. Best Co., the Leading Life Insurance Authority in America, Sayc in Part: "The Reliance has very substantial backing and is ably managed. The company has had a very rapid, persistent growth, policy holders surplus is more than sufficient for all contingincies. and the reserve basis is very strong. "The mortality rate is very favorable. Its investments are of excellent quality, consist mainly of bonds and yield an excellent return. The company pays just claims promptly. "The rates on the company's non-participating policies are low, and the dividends paid on the company's participating policies (increased for 1931) render the net cost of insurance low. Our general policyholder's rating of this company is A (excellent)." THE COMPANY WRITES EVERY MODERN KNOWN LIFE INSURANCE POLICY, TOGETHER WITE PERFECT PROTECTION!

Well, it's a perfectly nat ural desire, we should say, not count ing the very human interest a man takes in something in which he has invested real money. :o: Capone takes two years' sentence, say press dispatches. And that's sumphin' if prison walls keep him from directing the affairs of his gi gantic booze ring, the feat will be all the more remarkable. He is "one slick guy" and is usually a jump or two ahead of the law. :o: Omaha voters approved the two j million dollar bond issue for a bridge over the Missouri river at South Om-1 aha despite Senator Howell's warn ing that the span could never pay for itself out of tolls and the bonds would become a general liability on taxpayers of the metropolis. :o: Anyhow, Hoover spoke his thoughts at the Harding tomb dedication. His bitterness toward the men who be frayed President Harding precludes possibility of executive clemency for Albert B. Fall, who will probably have to serve his prison sentence as he rightfully deserves to do. :o: Conditions in Plattsmouth are on a par with other mid-western towns no better and no worse. The fel human nature was ever thus even the cattle grazing peacefully in their own pasture vision greener grass on the other side cf the fence. :o: We don't pretend to know anything about Vice President Curtis's inten tions, and there are as many reasons to think he'll run for the senate as for the vice presidency. But it is hard to believe he is to be permitted to pull out of the second office in the land and let all of Dolly (iann's work and worry go for nothing. (Approximately) $7M ON TEE OTHER FOOT The unfortunate killing of two Mexican students by an Oklahoma deputy sheriff throws into lurid con trast the American attitude toward BUCfa events when a foreigner in this country is the victim and when an American abroad is the victim. When a foreigner is the victim we refuse to get excited even though he is a relative of a president. But when an American is the victim in, say Nicaragua or Haiti or Mexico, there is immediate talk of interven tion or war to avenge the wrong. Recently a Latin-American diplo mat, in his legation in Washington, was almost killed by American liquor thieves. That event was considered so unimportant that most Americans probably do not even know it occur red. How different would have been the tale if a United States legation in Central America had been robbed and the United States minister bru- lally assaulted! The same applies to Mexico. It is a lawless country needing the pacification of its northern .neighbor, according to the argument which our interventionists drag out at every provocation. And the proof cited of the lawlessness of Mexico and its un fitness to govern itself is precisely the isolated cases in which Americans have been killed in Mexico. Ttit. truth is th:it neither thp people as a whole nor the govern ment is in any way responsible for these unfortunate things that happen in the best of countries. Therefore, they should not be allowed to cast the slightest shadow on the friendly re lationa of the two countries involved New York World-Telegram. NEW PRIVILEGE This country is now consuming 100 million more gallons of wine an nually than it did before prohibition, according to Hugh E. Fox. secretary of the United States Brewers' associa tion. We have no figures. But we ask: "At how many private dinner parties given this week by well-to-do New Yorkers is there lack of cocktails. wines or other alcoholic beverages? "On how many Newport dinner tables this week will no champagne glasses be found? In how many smart country clubs all over the land this week has there been any derth of 'drinks?' " The poor man who cannot afford a bootlegger, finds it hard to entertain these days. Also, he fears bad liquor. But the new aristocracy, the aristoc racy of alcohol, is going strong. It easily gets the best. Until that aristocracy is seriously inconvenienced by prohibition we shall have no real attack on prohibi tion. Privilege is always relished by these whom it distinguishes in some new way. Prohibition has reserved a new privilege, a new distinction for the rich. Prohibition dare not lay hands on that privilege. It would be fatal to prohibit ion. New York World-Telegram. :o: Plattsmotith's natural beauty has been greatly enhanced this year as a result of the Better Gardens contest sponsored by Civic Improvement com mittee of the Chamber of Commerce. Not everyone who signed up to er.ter the contest has done his part in city beautification but the average is high and the result very noticeable. Assets Over HHl.lNMl MR. H0CVER STANDS PAT That the United States, as recently charged by Prof. Taussig of Harvard, is governed by a system rather than a party, was abundantly proved in Mr. Hoover's speech ;i lew nights ago at Indianapolis. The President spoke for the system. He scouted every suggestion for a special session of Con press, t or revis ion of the tariff, for a flexible pro gram of public works and for indus trial planning in the United States. "Whether the 1208 economists who protested against the Hawley-Smoot law when it was in ;he making; or the liberal men in t lie Senate who think the Government should do something about the irrave condition of unemployment: or the industrial-, ists who believe that we have over done the tariff racket ; or the numer ous and eminent pe pie who, like Senator Couzens, Dr. Nicholas Mur ray Butler. Daniel Willard, Samuel I'ntermyer and Robert S. Brookings, are in doubt of the continued work ableness of some, of our practices; or those who. like Col. Hugh Cooper and John Bassett Moore, think we have much to gain and nothing to lose by free intercourse with Russia they are all one to Mr. Hoover. He dis agrees with them all. He stands pat. Indubitably, some cf the palliatives suggested are the nostrums Mr. Hoov er says they are. It is also likely that a good many people have not been as cheerful as they misrht have been; but to brand them as not being the good citizens tney mignt be is un sportsmanlike, just as his statement that the national psychology can either make or unmake us is laugh able. The condition of the country is much too serious for such twaddle as that those who sugeest remedies have no better motive than to make political capital against the admin istration. The best answer to that outcry is Senator Morrow's criticism that if one takes credit for rain one irust expect to be blamed for drouth. The vital thing at the moment is whether Mr. Hoover's suggestion that the country should do nothing and can do nothing that would help is any better or as good as some of these made by people at whom he scoffs. He says we are where we are because of the war: but he also says that the system pulled us out of a depression in 1921, when the world was in even worse shape than it is now. This is merely optimism, a dangerous pro vender for the unemployed next win ter. Nevertheless, his is the power. It is impossible to act upon any sugges tion for relief with which h- dis agrees,, and the most the country can do is to hope that the situation will right itself in due time without Mr. Hoover turning his hand over to help it. He did not repeat at Indianapolis his former mistake of undertaking to say just when the situation will right itself; but he did paint the next per iod of prosperity in bright colors. It is to be a truly halcyon time. It is interesting to turn from Mr. Hoover's Indianapolis speech to an other utterance of Ii is. made less than three years ago. We refer to his speech accepting the republican nom ination for President, in which he described in rapturous language the condition of prosperity in the country after eight years f republican rul. Mr. Hoover, as Secretary of Commerce had built a reputation for discernment in economic problems, yet there was nothing in his speech of acceptance to indicate that he scented danger in the Coolidge boom. He reeled off fig ures about the increase of our nation al income, the growth of home owner ship, the doubling of savings deposits and life insurance, the increased use of telephones, radio sets and automo biles. He said: 'Creat progress has been made in the stabilization of commerce and industry." And mir abile dictu: "The job of every man ha'.i thus been made more secure. Un employment in the sense of distress is widely disappearing." In a little more than a year after this utterance came the stock market crash and. with it. a deeper economic depression than the country has ever known. In Mr. Hoover's opinion, un employment in 192S was rapidly be coming a phenomenon of the past, yet today more tlian 6.000,000 men walk the streets, able to work, look ing for work, but unable to find it. But Mr. Hoover, in that same speech of acceptance, was not content with reciting what had been done under the Harding and Coolidge adminis trations. He took an excursion into the future which, in the light of sub sequent events, is a sorry comment on his economic insight. He said: We in America today are near er to the final triumph over pov erty than ever before in the his tory of any land. The poorhouse is vanishing from among us. We have not yet reached the goal, but given a chance to go forward with the policies of the last eight years, and we shall soon with the help of God be in sight of the day when poverty will be banished from this nation. There is no guarantee against poverty FINE FOR STOMACH " have never handled a remedy that gavq such wonderful results as ZINSEP. Sot one who has taken the marvelous stomach remedy that did not obtain immediate re sults, writes Mr. W. P. Conner, drug-gist at Woodriver, febr. End YOUR stomacu mis. try. it's GUARANTEED. At all druggists. 11 equal to a job for every man. That is the primary purpose of the policies we advocate. It need hardly be said that, if a job for every man is the primary pur pose of the economic policies espous ed by Mr. Hoover, those policies have sadly failed. Mr. Hoover's grandil oquent optimism of 192S may be ex plained by the fact that he was in a vote-getting campaign, but his con tinued assurances ever since 1929 that conditions are improving, and that all we have to do is have confi dence and "hold on" show him to be a poor prophet and an incompetent judge of economic tendencies. He told us after the stock market crash that business would swing upward in 60 days. During the spring of 1930, just before the terrific secon dary crash ol the market, he issued a comforting statement to the effect that prosperity was around the cor ner. This is to deal in empty phrases instead of action, a Hoover character istic. Mr. Hoover has become Mr. Mi caw her. SHERIFF'S SALE State of Nebraska, County of Cass, ss.
