Neni pochyby, ze zde doma nagli bychom dosti lidi, kteri by radi dostali east techto velikYch vladnich zasob za primerenou cenu, trebaZe miliony lidi jinde jsou snad daleko vice hladovej gi.

KrasnY vS,mysl nebo piani, ktera se nedaji spiniti, nazY yame utopii. Hospodarska rovnost je dosud pouze vidina el utopie.

KdyZ jednou vojaci se blizili k jeho rodne vesnici na morayskem Sloya.cku, gel rychle a napsal velkYmi pismeny na prvni dum u vchodu do vesnice: "Tady je cholera". 'ru uoinili vojaci ucti-

A kdyt tentyt chlapec dospel vysokeho veku, kdy shy jinYm tit ochabuji, vygel bete zbrane a skoro bez ptatel, znovu proti vojaktim sveho cisate, obejel rely svet, roznitil cizi krale k boji, znieil stare cisatstvi a zalotil vlastni titi pro svtij lid. Dvakrat byl svym lidem zvolen hlayou statu. Kdyt v gak lid g el k volbe po tteti, vg ichni jeho neptatele umlkli a v gethen lid volal zakladateli statu vstfic, aby jej vedi at do konce.

V minulem cisle Vestniku byla ueinena chyba dat v kalendari, asice slet v nedeli 3. zaki. a "Game Party" ye stredu dne 4. rijna. VSimnete si jejich oznanaky na jinem miste tl 1. ) 44, Rad Jaromir, cis. 54., West, Tex. Je eas abych napsala neco do Vestniku, neb jsem byla asi leniva, nebo bylo moc horko, Ze se nechtelo do nieeho. Pri gi nedeli, dne 3. mame rado you schtizi a proto kdo se jeSte neupekl at' prijde do schtize jako vkly o 2:30 hod. Co mame na programu nevim, neb jsem v minule nebyla. Tak ta naSe kuchyne-jidelna se stavet nebude, aspon ne ted', a2 jak to v'Secko bude pozdeji.

Valku 'name daleko oa nas, ale nasledky u2 citime, nejvice v grocerii, aenoviny porad piSi, ze se nesmi nic zdraZovat. Nic to nepomaha a bude zas o par m11101'1E:A vice. Kava brzo pro chudSiho eloveka bude luxusem a budeme se muset spokojit s eislou vodou, neb 90c a 1 dolor za libru kavy je piece jen moc pro toho kdo moc nevydela, a tak si musime odvyknout ji pit. No a jine je tea vSecko podraZene.

Zavarovani nebylo moc, jen okurky, neco fazoli a rajeata, a i tech bylo malo, neb suchem se scvrkly. Koupili jsme bull hruSek, ale delili jsme se na po:ovic s eervy,

takle za ty $2.50 co jsme platili bYvalo by lepSi koupit je uz hotove v plechovkach, nebo kdyZ se to yge spoeita tak je to stejne drahe. Broskve kdo mel na prodej, byly "jen" 6 dolarn jeden buSly ale to nebylo ovoce zdejSi. A ac tam kde se broskve a hruSky pestuji a davaji do plechovek, byla &oda dobra, ty tovarny to tea umi vyuZitkoy at a ceny hned jsou vyS'Si, a tak je to se vSim. Nyni se vozi do trhu korna, plati se bila $1.00—$1.05 a aluta a michand 90c—$1.00 buSl. Maize se platil $1.60 sto liber, ostatek nevim. Vejce jsou 32c-34c tucet a jine veci primerene. Bavina uZ se teZ pikuje. Kdo ma setou skoril bavinu, ta je dosti dobra, ale pozdni der ynova je 'Apatna, neb jsme zde nedostali dost vlahy, aby bavino y e boltce dorostly, a ted' se to tim , horkem otvira, plati od sta liber $2.00 a $2.25. Poeasi je suche a horko, ale kdo ma kornu sveZenou s pole, tak hned stonky zaorava, a 6: je zeme tvrda, traktor to zaora, coZ by koinni Mat nemohl.

Na listku nemocnYch se nachazi br.

Co jsme kde baviny videli, vgude bylo treba date.

Napsala jsem, kdo je u nas nemocnY a toho hlavniho jsem vynechala a to je br. redaktor p. Fr. Moueka. V gak doufame, Ze ho brzo zase uvidime u jeho stolu v redakci, coZ by nas vSecky Rada etu redakeni Araby ye Vestniku a myslim, ze vg ichni eleni budou pro to, aby se daly odznaky pro star' eleny za jejich praci pro Jednotu, nebo jenom pro rad domaci.

My zde mame velice pfijemne poeasi, ale rano v2cly jest tolik koufe, ze nikdy jest videt do dalky jen jeden etverec nebo dva. Tak to mame ua dva tYdny. Proto ani nikam moc nejezdime.

Mile sestry a bratfi!

Uplynulo ji2 nekolik tYdnfi, co jsem posledne psala do Vestniku a slibila, Ze popiSi cestu, kterou jsme s muZem v loni prave timto easem vykonali ze San Antonio do Vancouver, Canada. Ale kdybych chtela popsat onu cestu, ktera metila blizko sedm tisic mil, bylo by toho mnoho, a uZ tech cestopisil bylo mnoho napsano.

Mne cestovani zajima, neb cestovanim studuji to prirodu, ktera jest souhrnem vSech veci, ktere nejsou vYtvorem einnosti Umyslne prirodni vedy. Prot° astronomove radi vyji2di do pkirody a jsou radi o samote, aby mobil mluvit s tou pfirodou, a tak i nam ta pfiroda Septala do WI, tak se elovek seznamuje a zdokonaluje, vyjadri se pfirodni veci, ktere se mnohdy i ye ikolach nenajdou. Tak i my jsme uvideli kus to pfirody, kterou zbudovala ta sila neviditelna, boZska, ktera jest nade vkcky shy Zivota. Tedy vas vyzYvam, komu jest moZno prejedle si tou cestou, nebudote nikdy litovat. Nebo aspori pobliZe je zajimava pfirodni Carlsbadska jeskyne v Novem Mexiku, Grand Canyon v Arizone, atd.

ve stPedu, dne 30. srpna 1950. na rtech, jake nasledky prinese krva.va doba v Koreji se odehravajici. V padu ze doba pritomna se opet vy ginula z koleji non-nalnich, tak musi usoudit kaZdy kdo ma vedomost videti hloubeji. My Zijeme dobe, ktera je predehrou novYch prigtich vekii. Dochazi doba, kdy dozrava osud jenarodn a celych mas lidstva.

Dnes se hazi blatem, jedna vlada po druhe a lid obecnY musi jeho tely, krvi a potem vybudovat kapital, v gech vraZednYch vymolenosti vgeho druhu a pak se postavi v giky a tam co zbudovali navzajem se opet niel, mrzaei, zabiji. Mnohy se z nich nenavrati a mnozi, i kdyZ se navrati prinesou si nasledky, poruchy telesne i dugevni. Ale piece se lidstvo pre mezi sebou, jedni sympatisuji s tou a zase naopak druzi s onou stranou a vYsledek ztstane ten samY, jako jsme jiz svedky dvou svetovYch valek. Mnozi se obohatili na kor pracujicich a nemyslicich lidi. Tedy neneekavejme pokoj na svete, dokud lidstvo nebude moudre, a nebude moudre dokud nebude spravedlive, protole musi kaZdY vytrhnout ze srdce tu jedovatou bylinu, kterd otravuje cely system. Nekritisovat jeden druheho, bud'me svorni vgude a ye vgem. Vidime-li chybu nebo nejakou slabou stranou na svem bliZnim, nekritisujme, ale pohledneme na sebe, jsme-li bez chyby. Zajiste ze nejsme. A kdybysme nena gli na sobe chybu, bud'me radi, ale kde je Clo y& bez chyby? KdyZ privedli k Jeli gi Zenu a Zalovali na ni, ze je gpatna, aby ji potrestal, ale Jelig, zhmotnele dobro a laska, pravil: "Kdo jest bez chyby hod'te po ni kamenem!"

Ale ani jeden ze zastupu nehnul rukou.

Dnes se zapomina na tento vYrok: Odpust' nam na ge viny jako i my odpou gtime nagim viniktn. Tuto vetu mnozi odrikavaji dvakrat denne, ale za par niinut za pomenou na ona slova a zas nanovo se uplatfluje v nich ten demon zla, kterY nejen ze rozvrati rodinne a spoleeenske ba celY svet. Tedy kdo si zaslonZi toho slova elovek, kdyZ se stale pripravuji tak hrozne strelne vynalezy na lidstvo?

Jelig, kdy visel na krili, mel nadpis: elovek!" Tak si infiZeme predstavit ,jak daleko jsme toho nazoru neZ aby se mohlo ukazat a rid: "Ece Home". Lidstvo se musi probudit, obZivit a ueinit ve svem nitru misto tomu Kristu, ktery se v nas stale ozYva, a nabada k jeho nauce.

Ale svet jeho nesly gi, ty hri gne vagne lid prehlu gi a zlo vitezi nad dobrem, a tak se dostavuje krve prolevani, za coz musime trpet. Pravi se: Co zasejeme, to sklizeti budeme. Jak si usteleme, tak si lehneme".

TAJEMSTVI ATLANTIDY Studiem astronomie davnYch kultur tolteckYch a mayskYch v America jsem stale ureiteji veden k nazoru, ze Toltekoye a Mayove ye Stiedni Americe meli neptimy vztah s hlavnimi kulturami Stareho Sveta, a to pravdepodobne prosttednictvi povestne pevniny zvane Atlantis. Atlantis musela byti spoleenym zdrojem obema kulturam, je2 po zaniku 'Leto polomyticke pevniny zUstaly od sebe oddeleny po eels tisicileti. A jsou to nejen paelne podobne testy vYvoje astronomickYch poznani, ale ovSem i stavby chrajak tolteckYch, tak i mayskych v porovnani s egytskYmi a asyrskYmi. 0 existinci Atlantidy jsou rozSiteny povesti jak v davnych kulturach mayskYch, tak i v dejinach Stareho Sveta. Mayove nazyvahAtlantis slovem Mu a v mayskem rukopise troanskam nalezame ureitou zpravu, ze v race 6 Kan, 11. Muluc v mesici Tac zerne Mu byla postiZena tak velikYmi sopeenYmi ottesy, ze se koneene propadla se s yYrni 64 miliony obyvateli 8600 let pied dobou, kdy byl psan onen. rukopis. OvSem nam je nejznamejSi zprava o Atlantide z Platonovych rozmluv, v nichZ po prve se setkavame s timto jmenem.

Atlantis — jak podivna a piece struena, baser v Platonove Timaios! Chapeme proto, kdy jsme ji pteeetli, proe celY staroyal a sttedovek, od Sokrata aZ ke Kolumbovi, po dobu dlouhYch devatenact stoleti nazYval "Temnym motem" onu east ocednu, ktera byla scenou velike katastrofy. Vedeli, ze toto mote, pine hrozeb, bylo di yejSi a nehostinnejAi ne2 mote jina; ale tim spiSe se bazlive tazali, co je !!•0, jeho mlhami a jako trosky davne vy se skrYvaji pod jeho smitlivymi vinami. Aby odvail se vykonati cestu pies "Temne mote" a pteplul onen osudnY vir, pod nirriZ v hlubinach oceanu dtime Atlantis, Kolumbus musel miti ve sve dobe nadlidskou odvahu a tamer: blahovou y mySlenku, ze spra,vne pojal tvar naSi zeme.

Po cestach KolumbovYch hraza "Temnatio mote" se ztraci, ale zvedavost zustava. Zemepisci a historikove dale se zabYvaji otazkou velke pevniny Atlantidy.

Sklaneji se nad propastmi oceanu a snaZi se ureiti polohu ztraceneho ostrova, ale marne, a tak ptechazeji v pochybnost.

Pochybuji o hodnovernosti slov PlatonovYch a domnivaji se, ze v jeho dobach snadno mohla vzniknout vybajena ptedstava. Jen basnici ztistavaji verni krasne legencle, nebot' pro ne jest skuteenyin pouze sen.

Dues jiZ tamer neni pochyby, ze basnici meli pravdu. Po dlouhe dobe ihostejnosti • a nedilvery ye skuteenost Atlantidy v 18.

NemtiZeme sice Upine kladne odpovedeti, jest vSak stale ztejmejSim, ze za HerkulovYmi sloupy, jak starovek nazyval filinu Gibraltarskou, byly Sire kraje pevniny a skiminy ostrova, ktere se propadly ✓ocean v davne minulosti. Otazka Atlantidy zdaleka neni vytizenYm problemem, jak na ptiklad pied nekolika lety ukazaly yYzkumy oceanografickeho Ustavu v Patili. Jest naSim Ukolem, abychom na tato fakta poukazali v ptehledne Uvaze.

Boutlive a jindy zase tithe viny Atlantskeho oceanu a vsech jinYch oceanu jeSte mnoho skryvaji ve svem odvekem choralu a jednou nam mohou fici, se v dneSni do• byli jsme jen na poeatku skuteenYch poznani.

Uva2me kratce PlatOnovo pojednani.

Je psano v dialogu, kde mluveimi jsou Timaios, Sokrates, Hermokrates a Kritias.

Kritias vypravi o Solonove testa do mesta Sais v delta egyptske. Tam se sejde se starym egyptskym knezem, ktery Solona velmi ptekyapi sedlenim o ptivodu Athen, jen samotnYm Atheriantim byl neznam.

Take mu vypravi, jak v ureitYch dobach jedine Atheny stateene odrazily a znieily neobyeejne silny napor vojska, ktere za Ueelem vYboje vypravilo se aZ z Atlantickeho ocednu za Sloupy HerkulesovYmi. Tam se nachazel astra y, pry vetSi ne2 Lybia a ktery po prve v tomto Platonove podani nese jmeno Atlantis. Propadla se vSak 8000 let 'Aced dobou velkeho zakonodarce teckeho Solona. Dale vypravi Kritias a pro zajimavost uvadim doslovnY pfeklad jeho slov: "Die egyptskeho podani povstala pied 9000 lety vSeobecna, ka narodu tato strany HerkulovYch Sloupti (t. j. kolem Stkedozemniho mote) s narody za sloupy Herkulo yYmi. Na jedne strane byly Atheny a na druhe kralove z Atlantidy. Rekli jsme jiZ, ze tento astray byl vetSi neZ Libia a Afrika, ale ze se potopil nasledkem zemetteseni, a polohu jeho lze najiti tarn, kde v moil piskove mel'only zastavuji namotniky v jejich plavbe a zpfisobuji, ze mote je neptechodne." Tolik podaya Plato o Atlantide.

A nyni kolik faktil podava dneani veda o nahlem zaniku tak obrovske oblasti, jakYm byl kontinent Atlantis? JestliZe pluje lad' od Only Gibraltarske ptibliZne smerem zapadnim, lze si ptedstaviti, co bylo onim "Temnym motem" staroveku a nebezpeenYmi meleinami.

nu nam uka,Ze velmi srazne propasti po obou stranach rozsahle sttedni vy yYSeniny v Atlantickem oceanu, ktera, vyeni ya z vody zminenYmi ostrovy AzorskYmi a Madeirou. NejdokonalejSi obraz y tomto smeru by se nam objevil, kdyby AtlantickY ocean byl cely zbaven vody: Tu bychom videli, ze ji2 od GrOnska a Islandu na severu, rovnobeZne s pobtelimi obou pevnin americke a evropske, -Ohne se mocne horstvo sinerem polednikovYm, zrovna asi jako obe Ameriky. Udoli na, pad od tohoto mocneho podmokskeho pasma dosahuje nejvatSi hloubky Atla n -tickeho dnu,t.ja2650metroasvji poyahou ptipomind zapadni pobteli Ameriky. Niliny yYchodne od podmotskeho horskeho pasma ocednu, to jest smerem k Evrope, nedosahuji takovYch hloubek, jsou vAak mnohem hornatejSi a maji takove pyramidalni vyvYSeniny, jako jsou ostrovy Azorske. To ovSem ukazuje jiz na souvislost s Afrikou, jak ukazuji blfge fakta geologicka.

Z geologickeho stanoviska je zajimave, ze cela, vYchodni east Atlantickeho oceanu po cele deice od dalekeho severu k nejza gimu jihu jest jedno velke a souvisle pasmo sopeene. V gechny vrcholy, ktere dosahuji povrchu mote, jsou bud' sopeene ostrovy nebo docela einne sopky. Na priklad ostrovy Azorske, Madeira, Ascension, Sy Helena, ostrovy Kapverdske a Kanarske sestavaji yetginou ze sopeene lavy. I podmotske sopky ukazuji na charakter techto konein oceanu; obyeejne nad einnYm vulkanem lze yideti vystupovati pary, jak se ye velkYch rozmerech stalo r.

Dno Atlantickeho ocednu je geologicky velmi nestale, zylaSte ye vYchodni easti, ktera zaujima vyS'e zminene ostrovy, v ne2 lze zahrnouti i Island na dalekem severu. Z tohoto ddvodu lze oeekavati, 2e prave v takovem geologicky neustalenem pasmu mute prihoditi otres, ktery mohl bYti prieinou tak velike katastrofy, jako bylo propadnuti Atlantidy.

Jind zylaStni okolnost vedla k zajimaYemu poznani. V late 1898 jedna lad' kladla kabel, ktery spojuje Brest s Cape Cod. Kabel se najednou pretrhl a to se pokoukli vyloviti jej pomoci 2eleznYch chapadel. Bylo to tenter v jecine tretine Atlantickeho ocednu, '750 kilometrti severne od AzorskYch ostrovii, kde prilmerna, hioubka byla pribli2ne 3,000 metro. Byl to dkol velmi obtiZnY, ale yysledek se ukazal take na jinem miste. Dno oceanu v techto mistech ukazuje charakteristicky hornatY kraj s vysokYmi vrchy, strinYnd svahy do

Vrchy jsou skalnate a rnotske bahno, jinak yYznaene na, dne spousty vodni, nachazi se to jen v prohlubnich motskYch udoli. 2elezna chapadla po kaZdem vytaZeni nesla stopy narazu a rYhy od ostrich hran a tvrdych hrotti v motskYch hlubinach a byla temet vZdy rozbita nebo zkroucena. Obyeejne ptinesla s sebou idomky vZdy obdobneho nerostu. Tyto filomky ukazovaly, ze jsou z mohutnYch skal,lne prostYch motskeho bahna. Byly ze ‘ sklovite lavy, ktera chemicke sloleni eedion a odborne se nazYva, tachylyt.

Cela vec byla ptedlolena tehdy francouzske Akademii ved. V rozboru bylo dokazano, ze tato sklovita lava mohla ztuhnouti pouze na vzduchu, nebot' ye hlubinach 3,000 metro za ohromneho tlaku by zkrystalisovala a nebyla by pouze beztvarnou hmotou. Stejny druh hominy jsem nalezl na ostrovech Havajskych, kde jsme nedd yno Lcinili dvoudenni zastavku pti plavbe pies Tichy ocean. Pokusy, jeZ konal Lacroix s lavou hory Pelee na Martinique, yec potvrdily.

MtiZeme tedy usouditi: Povrch zeme, ktery dues je dnem Atlantickeho oceanu v prostote 900 kilometre kolem Azorskych ostrovn, pokud meteni byla provedena, byl pokryt proudem lavy, kdy jeSte byl nad hladinou mote. Zatim ovSem lava vychladla. Pak propadi se do hloubky 3000 m. Ponevaa vS'ak povrch skal zachoval nunohotvarnY vzhled a ostre hrany, jeZ ma jen eerstve vychladla lava na vzduchu, muselo se propadnuti pevniny stati zahy po vYronu lavy a ph torn nahle. Jinak ptisobeni motskeho ptiboje a vlivem atmostery by se hrubY a nerovnY povrch skal behem yen mnohem vice vyrovnal.

Dale take i zoologicka studia ukazuji, ze rozhloha horskeho pasma alp a Atlasu sahala daleko vice na zapad do nyilej§ilio oceanu, smerem k Azorskym a KanarskYm ostrovum. Zoologove s Germainem jsou ptesvedoeni, ze fauna ostrovii AzorskYch i KanarskYch a i ostatnich je ptivodu kontinentalniho.

A sour-looking man went into a store our local organizers will be coming in and said to the proprietor: "What sort with more new members. Our organizers are to receive instructions, direcof people do you have in this town?"

Mind you, not in August 1950, but in August 1787.

A group of young men averaging less than thirty years of age, the most remarkable group of practical politicians ever assembled, were framing the constitution of the United States of America—the greatest document ever written in the whole history of political science.

Out from Independence Hall came Franklin, tired and weary after a long session, and a man who knew him stooped him on the street.

"Ben," he asked, "what kind of government are you giving us?"

And Ben said, "We are giving you the greatest form of government on earth, a Republic, if you can keep it."

"If you can keep it."

Never was there a time in hist ry when this form of government was in so much danger—or so important to the salvation of mankind.

Democratic Simplicity There is a touch of personal liking that I have toward U. S. Senator Paul Douglass, of Illinois. He was teaching at the Chicago University before hO was elected to the Senate. In the Senate, he always speaks very sensibly, taking a broad and liberal viewpoint on every problem.

The other day, he happened to touch on the simplicity of Thomas Jefferson, his home at Monticello, and the University of Virginia which Jefferson founded. Here is a sample of Senator Douglass's observation: "I think we have now reached the point where the average American citizen feels, very much embarrassed in going into the average governmental building, particularly the departmental buildings. He feels over-awed by the architecture; he feels he is insignificant and that the people who dwell in these magnificent buildings and who have such large offices must be above and beyond him. In a democracy every citizen should be able to go into a public building and not feel ashamed of himself and not feel insignificant. He should feel that he is on an eqUality with the persons who dwell therein.

That is the characteristic of Monticello.

The humblest and poorest American citizen- can go to the hilltop of Monticello, look at the building, and feel that he is a part of it. He is not overawed by it. He can walk down the campus of the University of Virgidia, down those declining terraces, see those brick buildings with colonnade pillars in front, and he can feel that this noble architectural work of beauty belongs to him and that he is a part of it. He 'is not overawed by it. But let the average American citizen go into the Department of Commerce, the Department of Labor, the Department of Justice, the Department of Agriculture, or the Post Office Department, and see the secretaries dwelling in marble halls, in offices so large that it is almost necessary to put on roller skates to go from one end to the other, With the carpet so thick and soft that snowshoes are needed in order to prevent falling through, and the aver age American citizen does feel overawed. We have given up democratic simplicity in most of our executive buildings and are going in for almost oriental maghificence."

A Drink for the Weary Anyone who could use a little more pep and well-being might take a tip from Miss F. A. W. of Houston, who's found that making just one simple change in her menus has worked out very well. She's employed as executive secretary to a big businessman, and has plenty of responsibilities. Sometimes she is too tired to enjoy her dinner, and since she's not a big eater to begin with, she has been worried about her diet.

"But about two months ago .," she says, "I made it a point to drink a glass of milk at each meal, and I've felt better ever since." She goes on to say that she is working better, and looking better, too. A lot of compliments have come her way lately.

There are probably a great many of you who don't eat enough for breakfast, and who must depend mainly upon a sandwich for lunch. You find it hard to, eat enough at your evening meal to make up for the proteins and vitamins you have missed at the other two meals.

Drinking a glass of milk at breakfast, luncheon and dinner will give you 40 per cent of your protein requirement for the day — and don't forget that milk protein has high biological value.

You'll be getting a big share of your Vitamin A quota, almost 90 per cent of the recommended amount of calcium, and all the riboflavin. Augmenting your meals this way is an excellent practice for anyone, but is especially worth while if you're a light cater.

Why don't you try it? It may help you feel a whole lot better. ) • et, • BLOOMING IN ADVERSITY GOOD LESSON TO LEARN Whenever you see a fruit tree blooming in the fall, you needn't think it's such a good joke on mother nature.

Sometimes it is the tree's way of pulling itself through hard times.

That is the explanation given by Department of Agriculture horticulturists.

They say out-of-season bloom usually means that the tree has suffered from blight, or possibly drought in a long sunny fall, and has lost its leaves.

In an emergency effort to preserve itself, it puts out new leaves and often blossoms. This does not weaken the tree but frequently helps it over a rough spot.

Blooming in adversity is not, after all, a bad lesson to learn. )• • The 1950 census is expected to prove there are more women than men in this country. Then the majority will simply continue to rule.

PAY CASH, AND CREDIT IS HARD TO GET Men and women who have always preferred to pay cash for things often discover, to their surprise, that it is hard for them to establish credit.

This seeming paradox is easily explained by the credit men. It's not that they have anything against a man who pays cash. It is just that without some information about how well he has handled credit in the past, it's tough to judge how well be will handle credit in the future.

Young people can get first credit readily because they are not expected to have had previous credit transactions. But the longer you pay cash, the harder it is to obtain credit when you finally decide to try.

As one credit investigator put it: "When a man of 50 comes in here complaining because he has always paid cash and now is having trouble opening up his credit, I am suspiciolv, at once. If he has always paid cash, why does he want credit now?"

Such suspicion may seem rather odd, but there it is. So don't think you get a good credit rating simply by always paying cash. )•A t A weighty political essay: Government doesn't have any money of its own. It is just a collecting and disbursing agency. When government offers to do additional things for people, it is offering merely to do the collecting and disbursing, to be done under a set of formulas that are prescribed in laws.

The lawmakers say "let's do this," or "let's do that," and if most of them agree on the details, that's the law, the rule that governs the put and take.

The average man gets nothing free from government. He pays for it. No matter what he wants, he faces the question of whether he'd like to pay for it direct, or through the agency of the government. The government is like Santa Claus, and if you will turn your mind back a few months, you may remember that Santa Claus was followed by some bills. ',..alimmonieamaremir
