Under the old law a company could, in addition to carrying on business ordinarily carried on by an insurance company, accept deposits and act as a Trustee for the handling of such deposits.

The U.S. Trust and Guaranty Company adopted the charter powers granted in the old law, enabling them to accept deposits much as a. bank would accept deposits. They used the money for various types of investments. The laW has now been amended so as to prevent surety and guaranty companies organized, under that particular chapter frotn acting as Trustees.

Formerly, a fire or casualty insurance company writing health and accident ineSurance policies could refuse to pay losses without incurring any penalty. But, if a life insurance company refuses to pay its losses, it incurred a penalty of 12 per cent of the amount due under the policy, plus reasonable attorney's fees.

Under the new law, the provision for the 12 per cent penalty and attorney's fees applies to all health and accident policies, regardless of weather they are written in a life company, on the one hand, or a fire or casualty company on the other.

Under the old law, companies writing fire insurance could not charge a premium in excess of that fixed by the Board of Insurance Commissioners.

However, they could write such insurance at a lesser rate than that fixed by the Board.

We Should now How The Constitution Is Amended One of the most important aspects of our Constitution is that it may be changed. The procedure for doing so is clearly provided for in the constitution itself. However, the men who drew up the Constitution were careful not to make the amending process too easy — to be sure that any alteration reflected the considered wish of the majority of the American people.

Any change in the Constitution must originate in one of two ways: either by agreement of two-thirds of all the Senators and Representatives in Congress, or by action of the legislatures of two-thirds of the states at conventions held specifically for proposing amendments. But either action is only a first step. A proposed amendment becomes law only after a second step is taken — and that step is approval by the state legislatures of three-quarters or 36 of the 48 states.

The Constitution does not say who may or may not propose an amendment, so that presumably the President of the United States as well as anyone else is free to recommend changes. Over the years more than 3,000 amendments have been introduced either at the Congressional level or state level, but only 22 have become part of the Constitution.

tempt to draw public attention to their cause in 1898, when they held a women's rights convention at Seneca Falls, N.Y. Between that convention and the final ratification of the amendment, close to a thousand campaigns, demonstrations and parades were organized in an effort to convince state legislatures and members of Congress that women should have the right to vote.

Cash For The Farmer Practically all farmers are in the meat business to some extent. Almost 5 million farmers, out of a national total of about 6 million, have cattle. Hogs are grown on nearly 4 million of the farms and sheep on some 600,000.

There's good reason for this emphasis on meat animals. For one thing, livestock can be successfully raised in almost any climate. For another, because of the packing industry, a day-in-dayout cash market is always available to buy whatever the producers desire to sell. And this market, incidentally, is a first-class example of free competitive enterprise at work, based on the natural economic law of supply and demand.

It was within some of the individual states that women first won the right to vote. In those states women exerted pressure on their Senators and. Representatives to propose an amendment to the Constitution which would make The result is that meat animals give woman suffrage nation-wide. the farmer more dollars than any other Such an amendment, however was crop or income source.

You the Youth Director will play a big part in this program and a lot will depend on you to make this program a success. Be sure to keep close record of your meetings and all activities, that you may have a complete roster of your children so that you may keep an accurate count of points each child earns.

When I appointed Brother Charlie Navratil as a District No. II Organizer last year, he was reluctant of accepting the position, and took it only for a period of one year or until the time that I could replace him with some one else, now, since I had a replacement to this position, he wishes to resign.

I wish to thank Brother Navoatil for his help and for the work he has done for us while District Organizer, and to you organizers for your cooperation with us. Brother Navratil said he would be glad. to help any of you even now after he resigned, which we appreciate very much.

Wednesday, January 22, 1958 many times, with out hesitation, an ready and eager to help in their lodge work. Acknowledge them with me brothers. Acknowledge that the majority of them show good judgement and many of our lodges have only them to thank for the growth of the membership as well as a record of good management of their lodge properties.

The Editor would be very grateful if it were possible for him to name these good sisters, each and every one individually, or even better to introduce them to our whole fraternal family, but it is a human impossibility to do this, for this task alone would require the editing of a special issue of the VeStnik. The Editor knows so many of our good sisters and their fine families in this state but he is also aware that there are a great many he does not personally know and therefore, there is no way to completely evaluate the work of our sisterhood. But the Editor does know, that could he obtain a report from each lodge who boasts such outstanding assistants in their midst, that he would gladly honor them in the Vestnik for their unselfish work in their respective communities and lodges, which they have most assuredly earned in full measure.

Behold, I present to you one such devoted sister from whom I, quite by accident, obtained a picture for our VestnIk of her whole fine family. It is probably the only picture she has left. On it, is represented her whole family, before her good husband passed away. Modestly she refused to talk of herself, but you can judge from the seven stalwart sons and a beautiful daughter in this picture, the caliber of folks this family represents. The whole family speaks Czech and they are all members of our SPJST and that alone speaks for itself, I need. not add any adjectives to her credit.

The picture presented to you in the Czech column is that of the family of our sister Albina Horak of Caldwell, Texas, a faithful member of our Fraternity.

Her late husband, Brother Frank Horak, was a member of our SPJST fraternity for over 50 years and Sister Horak wears his Honorary 50 Year Pin with pride. She has given America some good looking as well as respected citizens.

As your Editor pays tribute to this good Sister Horak, he by the same gesture pays tribute to ALL of our sisterhood who has equally achieved Sister Horak's status among us, but so far unknown to your Editor.

Our thanks and our bouquet to all of you good sisters!

VLSTNIK — WEST, TEXAS

America's Economic "What is the most important problem to be faced by the United States in the next 20 year?" This sweeping question was recently placed before 50 distinguished political leaders, economists, scientists and other thinkers in America and other countries.

The question was posed by the Committee for Economic Development — a private group of business executives and scholars seeking to promote national and international growth. Not long ago the CED released the 48 papers it received in reply.

Although the contributors were asked specifically about the most important American problem of the next 20 years, most answers had a strong international approach. Clearly, many well-informed observers believe that the role the United States plays in the trade, investment and development of the world economy is a matter of major significance.

Seventeen of those who anskered the guestion — that is, one-third — touched upon the problem of speeding economic growth in tre newly developing nations. For instance, Britain's Dr. Julian Huxley stated that the big problem is "how to bridge the gap between the standards of living of the have-not or underdeveloped countries and those of the rich countries, without dangerous consequences for themselves or for the United States."

Another problem that received considerable attention was that of inflation — the price rises that occur when wages and buying are high. One writer — Dean Neil H. Jacoby of the Graduate school of Economics of the University of California — put it this way: "Stabilizing of price levels is the primary long range economic problem because solutions to other important problems depend mainly upon maintaining a dollar of dependable value."

Of striking significance was the fact that none of those answering, the question mentioned the great economic depression as something to worry about in the next two decades. Three American contributors wrote that the remaining low-income groups in America constitute a major problem. But most contributors, particularly those from overseas, singled out problems arising from the continuing prosperity of the United States — that in another 20 years, the average annual income of an American worker may well be $1,500, about double what it is now.

And thus, Professor Roy Harrod of

Ae

Oxford University concludes that America's most important economic problem will be to put top quality resources into the educational field "so as to equip citizens with the mental resources to make fruitful use of more leisure ways of life that lie ahead."

Still another problem foreseen by several writers is increasing congestion of American cities. Providing adequate roads, transportation, housing andspace for factories and offices will present new tasks for the nation's economy. As Professor Alvin H. Hansen of Harvard University described the situation: "It may be anticipated that 168 metropolitan areas will grow from the present 100 million population to perhaps 155 million in 20 years. This tidal wave will throw up economic, and social problems of the magnitude of which we have scarcely yet caught a glimmer."

Thus, well-informed observers see America's problems for the next two decades as problems of greater stability as economic activity expands, the problems of rapidly growing cities.

I • 40 • ( OVERHEARD IN PRAGUE An American factory worker form Detroit, visiting Czechoslovakia, was shown the Skoda automobile plant. His guide pointed ont the great advantages of the Communist system. "See this factory.

It is ours. We the people own it. In America Ford owns the whole works."

The American said nothing. As they left the factory, they saw a few parked cars. "Who owns these cars?" asked the American. "The big shots," answered the guide. "In Detroit," explained the American, "there are cars by the thousands parked everywhere, for blocks in every direction. We workers may not own the factory, but we do own those cars. That is the difference."

The proportion of family farms to the total number has held steady in recent years. The trend is toward larger mechanized farms operated by a' single family with little or no outside labor." ) • (lb •

Three Ch ices There are three ways to meet penc17 ing increases in defense spending increases which are likely to run into the billions.

One way is to increase taxes. Then everyone will have less money to buy the goods and services that keep America's enterprises running and American workers busy at good jobs.

The second way is to take the lid off the national debt limit, and let the government operate on a deficit basis --- that is, by spending more than it takes in and making up the gap by borrowing. Then we will see a new and major wave of inflation that could end in economic disaster.

The third way is for the government to rigorously pare non-defense spending in every possible way. Top authorities say that $5 billion or more a year could be saved in this fashion.

The third way is the only tolerable choice even though it means curtailment of Federal spending in "untouchable" areas of benefits and projects dear toga lot of people. ) o 4, A MOST PRECIOUS HERITAGE A new book by the Common Council of American Unit on How to Become a Citizen of the United States is now available at Palandech's book store.

Wednesday, January 22, 1958 its kind in the English language and whose homely sayings and genial wit made the name of "Poor Richard" a household word. Printing did , not keep Franklin from daubing in the events and politics of early America and he was elected to numerous posts which he faithfully and competently filled. His married life was short — He married in 1730 only to lose his wife 15 years later.

They had a son William.

Franklin was one of the organizers in America of the Masonic Society of America. He was a postmaster in his time. He perfected a stove known as the Franklin Stove or better known as the "Pennsylvania Fireplace." Served as commission in a peace treaty with the Indians, aided in establishing schools and hospitals, was made one of the two post ofoffice of Deputy Postmaster General. His conductivity of electricity by way of a kite is known to every schoolchild in America. He was honored here and abroad. While he was never rich, he had a substantial wealth which he on occasion put up as collateral for food supplies for Gen. Braddock's soldiers who were then fighting for American Independence. He won memberships in Societies of top scientific nature and was on the Committee that drafted our Declaration of Independence. He is one of our most valued son g , whose influence in the affairs of early America has made our country what it is today. So you see, from a soap-makers son he rose to honor and fame to the top posts of our country by his insatiable and inquiring mind, but his own bootstraps.

Franklin died in his eighty-fourth year on April 17, 1790 and his final resting place is at the Christ Church Cemetery in Philadelphia, Pa. His works are even today being written in every known tongue on earth.

Besides Franklin, we have General Robert E. Lee, born on January 19th., General Stonewall Jackson on January 21st.; President Wm. McKinley on the 29th; and in our own times President Franklin Delano Roosevelt on the 30th of January. All of you born in January, congratulations and happy birthday, you fall in with a lot of our most n0table men. May you too leave your mark to posterity.

If anyone of you ladies do not have a way to get there please call Sister Kopecek at TR-53590 or Sister Skrivanek at TR5-2356 We will be happy to pick you up. We have a lot of good ideas in mind and hope before long that we will have a lot of new members.

Each lady that comes to the next meeting is asked to bring a piece of print material and a piece of a solid color to match the print of her choice.

In this way we will be able to start cutting out the quilt. All visitors are welcome.

Fraternally, Alene Skrivanek ( HOW ABOUT THAT GIRLS? If women aren't careful they'll find themselves right back in the Squaw Age. Do a little research, girls. You will dis cover that the original Americans frowned on hard labor for men. The males gallivanted around hunting, fishing, loafing, and for excitement, they scalped a few enemies. But if lodges had to be moved, skins tanned or garments and household utensils made, mama took over. Women did all the work.

Now listen to a few comments from a letter, which are much like scores of others every month. "I spent six years working downtown," says the bride. "I married because I wanted a home and children. But it looks as if that dream is over. My husband flatly forbids me to give up my job. He says we need the money and that I must keep on working until we have saved enough to pay for our home."

In 1923 the tune was the opposite.

Letters from newly married women Went like this: "I am a college graduate and feel my education has been wasted because I cannot make use of it. I do not want to spend my life in the kitchen. I want to keep my job, but my husband flatly forbids me to do so. He says he would feel disgraced if people thought he could not support his wife."

This change in the attitude of American men is significant. And it's a warning to women that they had better put up a fight for the right to stay at home if they wish to have homes. Once the American man was proud to be a fam ily breadwinner. He liked the thought of a woman in his home. Today, more order their wives out to work.

Soon, I prophesy we will be doing all the work and no play.

College Station — Recreation can add a great deal to the happiness, healthfulness, and relaxation of the famdlyand one of the best places to get this recreation is right in your own home or back yard.

The. Texas Agricultural Extension Service has just released a bulletin entitled, "Homemad Games -- How to Play". This bulletin includes games and equipment that have proved interesting to children and adults in family and community recreation training schools.

Merely being an observer of recrea tion usually results in boredom, tension and fatigue, according to , the bulletin author, Lucille Moore and Mrs. Eloise Johnson. People are' learning that active participation in recreation brings pleasure, satisfaction and relaxation, they say., Making equipment for games serves two purposes — it offers an opportunity for an individual, family, or a community group to have the satisfaction of creating something and it enables them to have games and play equipment which will add to their enjoyxnerit for much less money.

ABOUT YOUR HEALTH TAKING TEMPERATURE IN THE HOME — By NELL ROLSTEN, R.N. Today's mother or wife generally accept the taking of the temperature of an ill member of the family as calmly as the professional . nurse. Yet there are those each year who have to learn to do this simple nursing procedure.

Some understanding of the meaning of temperature in relation to disease is helpful. It will give the mother more sense of security in deciding when to call the doctor, and often prevent panic.

Everyone has temperature. Temperature is the balance of heat produced by the body and the loss sustained from breathing and body wastes, chiefly sweat and urine. The temperature which is considered to be normal is 98.6 degrees on the Farenheit scale. This is the scale used by the United States Weather Bureau and generally by the American public. Some people, normally run a temperature slightly lower, or perhaps slightly higher, than 98.6 so small variations are not alarming.

Fever is a term used to indicate an elevation of the temperature consistently above the normal. There are different patterns of fever which are important to the doctor in taking care of the ill person. In the hospital these are graphed, but in the home the temperature can be entered on a sheet of nootbook paper. Example: 8:00 a.m. — 99.6 10:00 a.m. — 100.8 12:00 p.m. — 101.0 2:00 p.m. — 102.0 4:00 p.m. — 101.4 6:00 p.m. -- 101.0 8:00 p.m. — 100.0' The doctor can see at a glance the rise of the temperature, or the fall, which would indicate, perhaps, that the medicine being given was helping the patient. Temperature normally tends to belower in the early morning. Certain diseases produce an elevation of temperature in the late afternoon, being normal or near normal in the morning.

This is very important for the doctor to know. The mother who keeps a good record thus helps the doctor immensely.

by which the body fights disease, so is not, in itself, a totally undesirable condition Many threes the doctor will advise the mother to give the ill person fluids — water, fruit juices, or carbonated drinks — and something to put the patient to sleep. If the fever becomes dangerously high, or the patient is extremely uncomfortable from the high temperature, the doctor may advise the giving of aspirin, and, perhaps, cold sponges to reduce the temperature. With small children he may occasionally advise ice water enemas.

To take the temperature any good clinical thermometer can be used. These are often called fever thermometers or baby thermometers. These may be bought at the drug store for less than $2.00. It is wise to have one in the home medicine chest. The thermometer is a small glass tube with a mercury filled bulb on one end. The temperature of the body causes the mercury to rise in the tube. The tube is angular on one side and is very slightly curved on the opposite surface. The angular side is a mangifying surface, which makes the mercury column more easily visiable.

Most clinical thermometers are scaled from 92 or 94 degrees up to 106 or 108 degrees Fahrenheit. The curved back surface has a painted stripe within the glass so that the mercury column appears distinct against it. It will be difficult to see when first trying; but if the mother will hold the thermometer near the end opposit the mercury bulb and roll it back and forth very slowly in her fingers, with the magnifying surface toward her and the opaque stripe under the mercury column, she will soon be able to see the column readily.

The scale on the thermometer is marked by a longer line for the degrees and by shorter lines which indicate two tenths of one degree. The even numbers are labeled as 94, 96, 98, 100, etc.

The odd numbers are not labeled, but indicated by the longer lines. If the mercury column rises past 98 degrees three small spaces, this would be 98.6 degrees. Often this is indicated by an arrow. Temperatures above this may be indicated by red lines marking the scale.

used by a small boy to secure the teacher's attention when he wishes to be chosen to do some task outside the classroom. Do not hold the wrist stiff.

For responsible adults who are conscious and children who can he trusted not to bite the thermometer, the temperature may be taken by mouth. Some elderly patients and small children should have the temperature taken by rectum. To take the temperature by mouth, the tongue along the side of the mouth. Hold the lips, not the teeth, tightly over the thermometer. Leave the thermometer in the mouth for three minutes before reading. To take the temperature by rectum, have the patient turn on the side with one leg drawn up, covering the patient well with the sheet, only exposing the small area of the anus. Lubricate the thermometer with a little vaseline for about one half the length and insert it into the rectum for about the length lubricated. Hold the thermometer in place for five minutes .Do not leave a patient with a thermometer in the rectum. he mercury itself is non-toxic, so would not be harmful, but if it should be broken, the patient could receive serious cuts from the broken glass. Small children can be held on the lap, which may reassure them somewhat.

In the' home the thermometer can be cleaned with soap and water and wiped with alcohol, rinsed, dried, and returned to the holder. Use cool or slightly warm water, not hot. Hot water may ruin the thermometer. Store away, from heat. ) • " • Dorothy Thompson looks at education: "Most American parents do not want their children to be educated. They want them to be trained for a specific function. They despise 'useless' knowledge.

So our high schools are forced ta teach everything under the sun, typing, home economics, mechanics, parenthood, and many other things that young people once learned at home, in specialized schools, or as apprenticec. But a real educational institution is not a job factory."

Children tend to have fever from less serious causes than adults, and, then it ocurs, frequently is much higher than in the adult. This should be remembered by the mother to keep from being so panicky when Johnny or Mary becomes cross, refuses to eat or drink, and the forhead feels as if it would burn the hand to touch it. Another point to remember is that fever is one means

Before taking the temperature the mercury column must be shaken down to 95 degrees. Hold the thermometer tightly in the fingers by the end opposite the mercury bulb, and with a snapping motion of the wrist it can be quickly done. To obtain this snapping motion, practice slinging the hand so as to make the fingers pop against each other. This is the same- motion

According to National Association of Manufacturers' statistics, 47.1 per cent of current defense spending is accounted for by the Air Force; 27.4 per cent by the Navy; and 23.5 per cent by the Army. The remaining two per cent goes for interservice projects.
