THE RECORD
Criticizing the institution of life Insurance
has become a paying business. Hut these very voeui
critics who cash in on criticism, d n’t seism able to
suggest anything better. In past times, a few or
their schemes have been tried—and usually found
sadly wanting.
What criticism cannot hid is that life Insur
ance has given the American people more and bet
ter protection than is enjoyed anywhere else in the
world -that, even in the face cf great disasters,
such as war, the percentage of life insurance failures
has bees microscopic—and that life insurance, to the
bulk of us, offers the only sure and practical means
of providing for dependents, and f r our own
futures.
In other words, look at the record. The voices
of life insurance’s most extreme critics are puny
indeed when put beside it.

If in order to combat the notion that Ameri
can young people need to look f;r guidance to that
dictatorial regime which is the embodiment of Com -
munism, it is felt necessary to set up ounterorgani
zations among youth, let such organizations have
the sponsorship of leaders whose devotion to Ameri
can institution has been tested.”—Raymond Moley.
-'Oo--—
"If the people of the United States are to
weight intelligently the merits of public vs. private
rendering of electric service, not only must public 1
systems include taxes at the same rates as those
paid by private utilities, but they must als> accur
ately bedit all free or under-cost services which are
furnished by other governmental departments, and
all of which represent an expense to the taxpayers.”

day mor.wvg, December 6, to place
the first of 267 street marker
at 166 inte sect ons in downtown
Omaha contributed by Net rask
Power Company a- a service t
.ho city.
F'rst of 257 new street mar
keri now beng installed at 150
downtown st.'cot intersections by
the Nebraska Power Company,
was put in place Wednesday
morning (December 6) at the
city hall corner, Kghteenth and
i'arnam Streets, by Mayor Dan
Butler and J. E. Davidson, pres
ident of the power comp.iny.
Workmen of tha power com
pany expect to have the rema n
.ng signs installed within the
next week or the ten days, de
pending on the weather.
The new signs are of blue and
white enamel with four-inch let
ters designating the street each
sign faces, and the intersecting
steeet d tin giro bed above in 2-inch ;
letters. Each sign is in an oma- j
mental frame attached to the
steel light pole at intersections i
thtimghout the business district.
They ara o<f the same type as are
used in New York City.
Thu old signs, to l>e replaced,
because they had become faded
and rusty after many years use,
had letters but two inches high
and did not designate the inter
secting street. To visitor^ and
a long felt need which the c ty
more legible markers will prove
of even greater convenience than
to residents of the city. They fill
a long felt need which the city
has long recognized, but for
which it could hardly spare the
funds because of the many de
mands for other necclnary cr.y
act vi ties.
In appreciation of the power
company’s generosity in contri
buting this service to the city,
the city council, Tuesday passed
a resolution introduced 'by Street

The new signs are being in

streets:
