GILLARD INTERNATIONAL NEGRO PRESS Pensions For The Aged 1'hrre was time v.hen gra.« hairs were considered honor able. Later they were found to he a handicap in the business world and the manufacturers of hair color restorers and hair dyes sold millions of dol'fir* worth of their worthies con coctions annually. So matter how youthful tin1 face or form, how great the knowhdge and experience, gray hair indicated that the owner was ready for the human junk pile when it earn eto consideration for em ployment. We know of several instances of gra vhaired capa ble people being refused posi tions, which later thy obtained ( afteer resorting to the u-ee of dye. All this is to be changed. It seems that gray hair will be re , stored t oits time’honored |>o sition. If not exactly that, it | will have a cash value in sub , st.antinting proof«of eligibility for a nold-age pension. Recently under the new fed eral and state security aw, over 27,(K)0 people in New York, re ceived pension cheeks. In that state the City, State and Fed ) eral Governments have entered into a partnership to care for the dependent elderly people who ned public asistance. This i sa fine example of cooperative socia Iseeurity legislation and , is not to he confused with the I Townsend plan or any other plan that promises to pay out a sum in monthly pensions that would soon bankrupt the gov l eminent. i ueceentiy there has come to our d sk a leaflet setting forth a plan to distribute 280 million dollars each month which re cipients must spend yitliin the month. This is nothing more no rless than a cruel joke upon an unsuspecting public and is furthermore is a m naee to the whole cause of social security. It is absurd to expect a bottom* less treasury tha tean go on sup porting people forever and ever Naturally someonee makes mon ey out of these imbeeilic ideas a swas brought out in the in vestigation of Dr. Townsend States Senate. In some instances and hi- associates by the United those wlm investigate these unsound schemes are not delib erately viscioiis—merely senti mental an duninformt d in the fiel dof eeeonomies. They soon attract a group, however, that sees in the -elierne, an oppor tunity to rob agulliblp publi c With the ranks of the aged growing apidly, the field upon which such vultures may preey is practically unlimited. Ac cording to Dr. liohrt E. Chad' dock, Profoes/sor of S'tatfistie in Columbia University, the number of those oveer 65 years of age, now esimatted at about 6,500,000 will be trebleed in 50 years . The social security act is not perfect. There aree many glar ing flaws in it which even the unitiated can detect. But it at least is the beginning of an hon est attempt to meet the prob lem of unemployment and the needy old-aged.Enacted in haste to meet emergency econditions it issubject to revision by a mendments. Thc^se revisions must come through our law makers. Thereefore let us se cure soun dinformation on the subject and let our repreesent' atives and senators, both state and federal, know our wishes, instead of becoming victims of the promotors of leagues and plans to giv us old agee pen sion*. + -J •REVEALING' your PAST, PRESENT <nt FUTURE” /wm-ACE— NulE—Your question printed .-epiy send 25c and (self addreser Astrological Reading and receive b luestions free.
