(Political Advertising) J. R. Reeder fcr Connty Supt. DM Woll to tMinK eo. .WAITC j Samuel E. Boys, editor of the Ply mouth (Ind.) Daily Pilot, says: "There is a lot of talk these days about 'social security.' Books have been written about it and new deal statesmen consider it a part of their plan to make over the economic and social laws and customs of this na tion. "By social security is meant that every man, woman and child shall be secure in having tne comioris ui life; that none will have to worry about want during life or in old age Can we have this social security without giving up something which is worth far more than security? "And shall we say, as a nation or as individuals, that everybody shall be secure in the comforts of civilized life no matter what he does? Shall the man who saves and strives and thinks carefully for his physical and mental comfort be compelled to pay out his savings to support in comfort the one who squanders his substance in riotous living, and wrecks hi physical and mental life by his ex cesses? "If that is attempted, we might as well eto farther and have the churches guantee also that every per son shall go to Heaven, or the Happy Hunting Grounds, regardless of what his life has been. "This is a hard problem. Certain ly every person who fails or comes to a sorry condition in life by no fault of his own should be cared for in some way. But just as certainly he who wastes his substance and his life by careless living is not entitled to any governmental aid. "If life were made socially secure, all striving and worry taken from the shoulders of men and women the human race would rapidly de teriorate and our civilization would disappear. We are so made. Human beings must strive to accomplish either by desire for better things or by compulsion of necessity, in or der to make progress. 'There is dispute now as to whether the race has progressed or gone backward during the past two thousand years or more. With 'social security there would be no question about the rapid backward tendency." GOLD MOVES TO AMERICA Washington. An extraordinary movement of capital funds and gold from foreign countries to the Unit ed States was listed by the commerce department as the most significant of all items represented in a survey of the balance of international pay ments for the first six months of this ear. During that period, it was esti mated by Dr. Amos E. Taylor, an economist on the department staff 920 millions worth of gold, 30 mil lions worth of gold, 30 millions ot foreign currency, 625 millions of foreign stocks and bonds, 310 mil lions of long term credits and 250 millions of short term credits came into this country. The movement of funds "assumed extraordinary proportions immed iately after the official devaluation of the dollar on Jan. 31," said Dr. Taylor. RAILROAD LEADER PROTESTS St. Louis. Congress was charged by L. W. Baldwin, president of the Missouri Pacific lines, with failure to extend to railroads the same "measure of relief from competition that has been extended to other busi ness and industry." Addressing the annual meeting of the American Association of Passen ger Traffic Officers, Baldwin declared "whereas other business and indus try has been encouraged to bring about conditions of fair competition and has been permitted to fix prices that would result in fair profits, rail roads have been subjected to a most unfair competition." KIDNAP PLOT FRUSTRATED Denver.-i-V.'hat officers construed as a kidnap plot, apparently for re venge, was frustrated by 9 year old Mary Josephina Klein, the intended victim. The child said that two men in a truck seized her Wednesday night while she was on her way home from school. They took her to a shack on the eastern edge of the city and locked her there, but the girl escaped by tearing out a board. Plattsmouth stores orTep shop ping advantages the equal of any to be found.

Last Monday night there came a rain, copious In quantity near va- bash, so much so as to make the roads slippery. We know that, for we negotiated them the next day. How- ever, Mrs. Frank Marshall struck an extremely slippery piece of roadway and the car which wanted to rest anyway, slipped off into the ditch, and Mrs. Marshall had to make the rest of the trip on foot.

There was a kittenball game at the pasture not so far from Wabash where the ball players resort foi their fun and recreation on last Sun- day where the players of the gay nineties thought they would try their hand at the fascinating game of kittenball. Had they harked back to the time when they were kids they might have played Town Ball ol two o'cat or something of that kind but they wanted to be up to date, The ball was large and smooth and round, but some of them did not stop it properly, for P. II. Clarkes was wearing a blackened eye by reason of the ball getting past his hand Fred Towle the following day was not using crutches to get about, but he felt like it.

Japan Said Aitninrr fst mimii AJ JTLillU LT 1 HP 11 liaVal I cilKS Nippon Pictured as Hunting Excuse for Abandoning Discussions at London Conference London. A belief was voiced in some American quarters that Japan is trying to wreck tri-power naval talks in progress here. Refusal of the Japanese delegates to fix the maximum figure to which they would be willing to limit defen- sive ships gave rise to the belief they were seeking so to entangle the con versations that compromise would be impossible, thus civiner them an on I portunity to abandon the discus sions. These American sources were con vinced Japan would excuse her walk- i , .. . out on me piea mat me otner two participating powers, Great Britain an the United States, would not give her sufficient rights under the new treaty she proposes to make her de- fensively secure. Thus, it was ex pected she would contend, she was forced to take matters into her own hands Once the conversations were at an end, the Americans believe, Ja pan would propose a nonaggression pact among the three powers to fore- oiuu anj uiuii.uuk'9 nintu in ift ii l entailed in a possible naval building race. To the joint demand of the British and American delegations that Ja- pan suggest a maximum figure fr tonnage limitation, the Japanese re- sponaeu with suggestions that tecn- nical experts of the three powers set the figure. Ambassador Matsudiara and Ad- miral Yamamoto, the polished diplo- i mat and the fortright sea dog rep- resting Nippon, were described a feeling their proposal that the figure be mutually determined was very fair.
