There is sometinng you can do to help your son or daughter get off to a good start and that is -- life insurance! You can give it to them now, as a: graduation gift: but you may wonder "How can life insurance help them?"

Well, suppose your son works for a few years and then decides to start his own business. He'll need some money to Start off with and one of the first questions the banker will ask him or her is, "How much life insurance do you have?" When a man wants to borrow money, life insurance is the finest "collateral" he can have. It will help to open the door to many business opportunities. But, this is just one of the many advantages that are offered by life insurance and any of our organizers would like to tell you the rest of the story.

We have in our brotherhood a number of different life insurance programs that our organizers would be glad to present to you. If you call him, in a few days he will call on you to arrange for atime Because you're graduating when you and he can get together to This message comes to say, talk about our plans of protection. Do That all our thoughts are with you now not delay this, but keep this in mind On this important day. for the good of your son or your daughMay you my friends give your best to life ter.

In everything you do, ) • 4. • ( And then, in turn, may all life's best Be given back to you! )

To Our Graduates

Life Insurance For Graduates Protection Our young boys and girls will be graduating this month from high schools and colleges. This is an important time in your son's or your daughter's life.

They stand on the treshold of entering the business world. Will they be successful? That question must be uppermost in your mind now and you can be sure that your son or your daughter is thinking about it, also.

You may be asking yourself, "Is there anything we can do to help them off to a good start — something that would be tangible; that will be of value to them for years to come."

:mg Reports Of Fraternals

It would seem that sound management would suggest the preparation of periodical operating reports. Certainly it is of value to know the financial results of a monthly or quarterly period of operation. ,Questions as to future action may be more accurately appraised, sales campaigns planned, and budget figures revised or adhered to as management dictates.

The problem of preparing an interim opertina statement is not an easy one to solve, Undoubtedly the best answer would lie in some from of Gain and Loss statement bringing under its cover all transactions and facts that, have concerned insurance operations during the period selected. Such a statement, how-

ever, makes rigorous demands on accounting and actuarial staffs and may not be too practical for the average society.

Our problem is greatly increased when one stops to consider the make-up of the Fraternal System today. There are less than twenty large Societies with insurance in force of over one hundred million each. There are slightly more than 25 Societies in the medium or middle-sized class with insurance in force between 40 and one hundred million. One hundred and fifty-nine Societies can be classified as small with insurance in force of under 40 million. The large fraternal is usually well equipped, as far as office personnel is concerned, to prepare any forms of report needed.

The position of the medium-sized. fraternal is not as strong, and the small society finds itself in practically an impossible position to prepare anything but the simplest statement. The fact that the small society is in a poor position to prepare an interim operating report does not alleviate its need for one.

Indeed, the small or new Society is much more interested in the increment to surplus than the larger organization, for often times this information may be the deciding factor in initiating new and forward programs.

The question as to what form of report our Fraternal will use has been satisfactorily answered with our monthly and annual reports, recently published. — The writer believes that our Accounting Department is giving us plain reports that provide a true picture of our financial gains, as they are available.

The Editor )• •( For over a year a man had eaten in a small restaurant whose sign read — Mary's Home Cooking — but never once had he seen Mary. Finally his curiosity got the better of him and he said to the waitress, "I have been eating lunch here for a long time and Mary is never around. Where is she? " She's just where the sign says she is," the waitress answered, "home cooking."

Wednesday, May 21, 1958

Our Future Progress In general life insurance has always followed a well planned course of progress in our brotherhood. We look to the future with confidence. We have at the present over $29,608,184 of insurance in force and compared with the modest beginning in 1897, this is quite an achievement.

Relying on the ability of men and women in our field force with confidence in the accomplishment of their best, we are hopeful that our goal of $3,000,000 of new insurance in 1958 will be reached.

We hope to accomplish this with your help in our respective localities by giving our organizers all the assistance that you possibly can. Your cooperation will be of mutual interest to all of us.

From the last Progress Report that has been published in our last Vestnik, you can readily see that our Third District'`-is right on the line striving to keep an honorable place in our Contest to gain the $3,000,000 of new insurance and we congratulate the District and all the organizers for the gain that they have made in the first four months of this year.

We wish that all of the other Districts would fall in line and strive to outmatch our District Three and forge ahead. One of the measures of a good man is contained, in the slogan which we would like to call to your attention and that is: "When your family is counting on you, you should count on life insurance."

This should be done because of the mounting threat of inflation and the desire to give learedship to the fight for sound and stable dollar in the protection of your family.

times faster than their numerical increase.

Another segment is perhaps the best of any generation. It is dedicated to the highest of ideals.

But the vast mapority of youth does not fall into either of the segments mentioned above. Most youngsters are neither juvenile delinquents nor angels.

Like their parents, they are not perfect. They occasionally get off the track and it takes a little prodding to get them back on. They are just boys and girls. They will dominate tomorrow's adult society.

It is to all groups that we would direct a little unsolicited advice. Most youth have noble intentions concerning the future. They are concerned about what to do after- that high school diploma is awarded. They, in many instances, are apprehensive about tomorrow. Some are optimistic. Others are pessimistic. While we are not capable of solving many problems that face these youngsters, still on the, basis of personal observation, we are able to see certain areas in which youth can better prepare for tomorrow.

First, we would suggest that youth strive for greater proficiency in their various skills. Typewriting for example, can be mastered by most anyone, regardless of his IQ — yet good typists, and these are the only kind needed by any business, are almost impossible to find! The same can be said for office clerks, reiceptionists, bookkeepers and other types of workers above the rank of the totally unskilled. There seems to be little desire on the part of the student to master penmanship, spelling, grammar — basic skills needed in almost any line of work, The goal seems to be to master these important skills only to the extent needed to meet minimum requirements for graduation, This is not intended as a criticism of present day schools — parents and grandparents of today's graduates are just as deficient if not more so in these same basic skills.

Secondly we would admonish today's graduates to develop- those qualities of dependability, honesty, interest in their work, cheerfulness, diligence, all of which arc attitudes of mind rather than something to be learned from a textbook.

Finally, we would insist that the youth of today examine their attitude towards the adult world about them. Too few high schoolers display even a mini-mum of courtesy to adults. —

May is the month when our thoughts turn to the youth, particularly graduates of high school and college. The nation's youth have been much in the news in recent years. They have made the headlines, unfortunately, not because of their virtues but because of their shortcomings. This isn't to imply that they are devoid of virtue. It's just that the evil men do seem to be more noteworthy than the good — whether the person is 16 or 60.

One segment of today's youth is perhaps the most vicious of any generation.

These youths apparently forget that The seriousness of its behavior is never on the increase. The average age of the adults, whom they despise, merely tolecriminal has been dropping continually. rate, or view with utter indifference, Chu.o among youth has increased four are the ones who must give them their

Stritna 15

first jobs, their start in life, a chance to get valuable experience. These adults are the ones whom they will be compelled to give as references when they face an unsympathetic inversonal world.

The wise youth is he who at an early age begins to "cultivate" those people for whom he may want to work in future years; those people whom he may want to ask for a character reference when he seeks that position which he someday will be wanting with all his heart; those people from whom he may be seeking financial assistance in future years.

The wise youth is he who realizes that even at an early age he is being watched by the adult world, that even when he is in high school adults are giving him positive and negative marks.

New Letter Writing Contest For The SPJST Youth A new letter writing contest is hereby announced by the Vestnik for the Youth of our SPJST on the following topic: WHY I LIKE MY DAD In less than 500 words, tell us what you like best about your Dad.

Dear Friends

Sign Of Confidence

The Temple Telegram of Friday, May 9, brought some very interesting articles about our Rogers schools in Bell County.

We are not trying to single out any of oUr High Schools especially but we do take pleasure to remember some of our diligent students, especially when we can judge by their names that they are descendants of our Czech citizens and most of them members of our SPJST. It May also be emphasized that a good many of these students have received their basic training in our country grade schools before they were able to attend • some of our high schools. In this case, it speaks very well for the education they have received at these country schools.

One of our SPJST District II. Youth Directors is Sister Clara Hejl, and a teacher at one of these country schools at Seaton, near Temple. The article says; Rogers School Lists Two Top Pupils Shirley Haisler, who earned : a fouryear grade average of 94.83, has been named valedictorian of Rogers High School for this year.

Salutatorian is Henry F. Mares Jr., whose four-year average was 94.87.

Miss Haisler is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert W. Haisler and Mares is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry F. Mares Jr.

The American people are continuing to prove their fundamental confidencein the outlook and their faith in the future of the economy by the mariner in which they are presently increasing their savings.

At the same time, they are building up a powerful force for economic expansion by their additions to the nation's resources of capital and investment funds, the lifeblood of a high-investment economy such as ours.

This is being accomplished through the growth of the people's saving in life insurance and other long-term savings of individuals, and in the reserves of private pension and retirement funds.

These long-term trift funds combined now add up to well ovex $280 billions-and are rapidly approaching the $300 billion mark. They represent the biggest single source of funds in the capital market from year to year, to help meet the credit and capital needs of business and industry, home-owners, farmers, and Government (Federal, State and local).

Based on the experience of recent years, such savings for investment purposes will be needed as never before in the years ahead, to meet the economy's financing needs on a sound basis and to help act as a brake on the inflationary forces that have become so deeply ombedded in our economy.

Nor is there any evidence that the people's savings performance is being made at the expense of personal spending, whatever impression there may be to the contrary. Rather, the two are go, ing hand in hand as they have in the past, reflecting the voluntary decisions and preferences of the average individue I. cite the letdown that has been ainareas of durable gt made by the U.S. Deof Commerce place the total of fl ?,1 consumption expenditures at $2;' I billions in the first quarter of this year, This is less than 1 per cent under the peak levels of consumer spending reached in the third and fourth quarters of last . year. Furthermore, though so_ne savings ,have been rising, total personal savings in this year's first three months represented a rate of little more than 6 per cent of aggregate personal income after taxes, according to the Commerce Department. This is a significantly lower rate of savings than in most recent yearS Since 1951.

Principal J. L. Chervenka said a third of the senior class will graduate with honors, having compiled ,averages of 90 or above.

The honor graduates will include Johnnie Hutka, Eugene Kotrla, Minnie Bishop, Barbara Durnal, Helen Engbrock, Shirley Jungmann, LaWanda Atkerson, Betty Jameson, Wayne Green, Larry Harbour, Jerry Mikulas, Mildred Hejl and Lawrence Skrabanek.

The article published in the Temple Telegram should be of vital interest to many of our SPJST members because we are sure that most, if not all of the students mentioned, are of Czech descent, and are SPJST members, They come from families belonging to the Cyclone Lodge No. 24, or Seaton Lodge No. 47, or the Rogers Lodge No. 69, and if they are not, the organizers should certainly take note of this and get busy.

Good luck to all of them. — L.O.H. ) • a. (

In this connection, it is significant to note that total longterm savings of individuals in life insurance, savings accounts, U. S. Savings Bonds, savings and loan, and other longterm savings, had grown to the point where they were equal to 87 per cent of the full year's personal income after taxes in 1957.

Right now, for example, there are 109 million policyholders in legal reserve life insurance companies, representing about five out of every eight persons in the entire population. In addition, figures compiled by the American Bankers Association place thenumber of savings depositors at just under 75 million, and the number of members or investors in savings and loan associations at more than 21 million. Furthermore, more than 16 million workers are now covered by private pension and retirement funds, insured and non-insured combined, om about one person in every three in private nonfarm employment. The above figures are not mutually exclusive since millions of people own more than one form of savings. )• °( DOCTORS SEE LEAD TO ARTHRITIS CAUSE IN BLOOD REACTION A possible lead to discovery of the cause of rheumatoid arthritis may exist in a newly discovered reaction between two substances in human blood.

The reaction was announced at the American Rheumatism Assn. meeting in Chicago by Dr. Wallace Epstein, speaking for a. of scientists at Columbia University Presbyterian Medical Center, New York.

"This advance," Dr. Epstein said, "may now make it possible for us to identify the rheumatoid factor present in the blood of persons with crippling arthritis. It may help us understand a bit better why the person with rheumatoidorthritis is different."

The reaction is between two unknown substances in blood. One of the unknowns is found in persons with arthritus, the other in persons without the disease.

Their existence was discovered when the Columbia scientists combined pooled human gamma globulin with the blood serum of patients with rheumatoid' arthritis. The result was formation of an insoluble precipitate.

Next step will be to identify the two substances. The one in the pooled human gamma globulin seems to act like an antigen and the one in arthritis blood like an antibody.

The Hari! Money Policy

By Jim Wright The hard money policy is being dumped by the administration, and apparently none too soon. It has been a complete failure!

Originally designed to curtail installment buying and to curb inflation, it has done neither. Installment buying has gone up, and because of higher interest rates, the American public actually owes more than it did.

Consumer indebtedness has increased through high interest.. Federal Reserve Board reveals that, while liquid assets average only $310 in families with income between $4,000 and $5,000 the average such family now is carrying in stailment debt of $440.

Instead of curtailing the inflationary trend as hoped, the tight money policy has witnessed a steady increase in the cost of living. Because of the extra unseen layer on each installment payment, it is costing the average family more, not less, to live.

Our people today are carrying private debts totaling $191.1 billions. This is a substantial increase over 1955 when total private mortgage indebtedness came to only $117.9 billions.

You may also mention that there will be a meeting on the planning of the picnic for June 29th, was postponed from May 11 to May 25 on account of Mother's Day; which the members were against having a meeting on that day.

Reunions

Women's Nook LINDEN HALL, LODGE 66, WACO, TEX. Dear Brothers and Sisters: Here I am reporting on our meeting which was held Sunday, May 4, 1958. It started at 12:30 p.m. with a big dinner, the food being brought by all members. And what delicious food! Drinks were served by the lodge. After everybody was relaxed, our meeting started at 2:30 p.m. Our Vice President, Brother Alvin Reznicek took over for our President, Brother Ed. Mazanec who was not able to be with us. Business was discussed and some details on our big Bazaar coming on August 1, 1958. We hope every member will give a helping hand and make it a big success.

Then I read the names of all members whose birthdays were in the month of May. These are only the members who belong to the Birthday Club. All dues go to the Youth fund. All Birthday Club Members that had birthdays the past six months were honored. There were quite a number. Names were drawn for the door prizes; in the Adult group, Sister Louise Maths won and in the young people's group, Mary Nell Narovec won. The door prize is given every month, After our meeting adjourned, we had a recess for a few minutes, then our Program was put on by our Youth. It consisted of the following: History of Mother's Day — Elaine Reznicek Poem. "Mother Hood" — Kathy Stanislav, Frances Miller , Mary Nell Narovec, Helen Kolenovsky Piano Solo, "Prickety Prank" -- Ira Joe Koen Lana ReznicPoem "Mother's Day" Accordion Solo, "Go Away" and "Mary Had a Little Lamb" -- Helen Kolenovsky A drawing was held for the Mother of the year and sister Stacy Kazda received the honor. She was then brought forward by Vice President Alvin Reznicek while the children sang "The Eyes of Texas." She was crowned with a red,

Wednesday, May 21, 1958 white and blue crown, presented a carnation corsague and a box of candy.

Then our most exciting part of our program came next. The letter contest on "Why I Think My Mother Is The Most Wonderful Mother In The World."

This I do have to say was somthing to see. The children were so excited, I myself, for no one knew the winner's name, not even the Judge for the name was sealed in a separate envelope. The first two letters were opened, but to our regret, these children were not present, so they were not eligible. These letters were written by a brother and sister, the Machovsky children. The next two letters were by the Reznicek sisters. The youngest sister, Lana, was first; Elaine second. The Mother, Sister Irene Reznicek, with tears in her eyes was brought forward and presented a carnation corsage and a box of candy, The two sisters were presented a gift each. All children were given a. package of popcorn.

The Oldest Mother, Sister Janie Mazanec and the youngest, Jean West received carnation corsages. Then "My Country Tis of Thee" was sung by all.

Everybody had a good time playing free Bingo with small gifts being given as prizes.

I thank all the children who took part in the letter contest and program. You all were wonderful sports and I enjoyed working with you.

The letters were all wonderful for I read them myself. I would not want to be the Judge. Your mothers should be proud of you. Just keep trying, some day you will be the winner. Boys and Girls bring your fathers out to our next meeting which is the first Sunday in June.

Maybe he will be crowned Father of the year.

Remember June the 29th, Youth Day in Ennis. Make plans to enter in some contest and remember to work for your points, boys and girls. You may be the winner at the end of the year.

Thank you everybody. Hope to see you at our next n,eeting. I am presenting the two winning letters of our contest.

Fraternally yours, LIBBIE PARMA Youth Director, Lodge 66 Editor's Note: Thanks for your letter, glad to hear from you and your active Lodge. The prize winning letters will be in our next issue.

• 4. • SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS Dear Editor: I have read so many of your articles on covering your dependents and yourself with enough life insurance and I readily agree with you. We have your insurance but I have talked to many of ntvy friends about wills. None of them

VESTNIK — WEST, TEXAS have any and, neither do we.. Some say, "Go to a lawyer," others say Go to the bank, maybe to a guardian." For example: If my husband should pass away, the policy goes to the wife, but, suppose both parties pass away at the same time, what papers are there that the children would get if they are minors, and who would administer to it?

Mast people who own their homes, pay them out in installments, their extra "cash" is all in the bank or paid out for their debts. Is there any advice that you can give us or to the public and what to do. So many — myself included —keep putting off until tomorrow, what should be done today. Since my letter with these questions had not been signed, it was not published, in your paper. So now, I am sending you my name and I did not sign the first letter became I thought that it was not necessary. We know quite a number of your readers and I just wanted to write and not "just to get my name in the paper."

Yours truly, MRS. LEO STAVINOHA, San Antonio, Texas Editor's Remark: I have mailed a copy of your inquiry to the attorney of our brotherhood, Brother Aug. Kacir, in Temple, Texas, and he has promised to send an explanation to your inquiry. We hope this will serve as adequate information for you and if at any future time you would like to have some other information, please do not hesitate to call on us. __nen) • 4, • West, Texas Dear Girls: I suppose most of you are working furiously in your gardens to keep ahead of the growing grass and bug invasion, hoeing away to loosen the packed soil after the recent heavy rains so that your later planted vegetables and summer flowers can net a chance to start growing in the warm sunshine.

Here at West, we too got a nice shower, just enough to pulverize the heavy black land, and everyone was consequently outside, hoeing, cutting the ever growing lawns, snipping off the heads of faded roses etc., for the moisture and warm days have really begun to shoot things up.

This has been a year for roses and the brilliance of the Paul Scarlet Climbers in bloom in our pretty town are spectacular. Would that they could bloom every month of the year, what a fairyland West would be One of my good neighbors showed me an old rose stump on which through pruning and cutting out the dead wood she had forced long stems to grow which were loaded with gorgeous ro-

Strana 21 ses. She told: me the stump must be 15 years old, and that when she finished operating on it, she treated it with a solution of water into which she placed one heaping tablespoon of lye.

She maintains that this solution kills all wood bugs and worms, as well as root worms, and she had saved many a peach tree that had cracked its bark to ooze out rosin, stating that it had proved beneficial for her time and time again. If you have a similar situation in your trees, this simple remedy may save yourself a tree for many more years of enjoyment.

The other day while riding a bus to Dallas, I chanced to sit next to a charming lady (a ,grandmother, too) and while glancing through the menus in the newspaper we brought the conversation to meals and menus, and their planning. She gave me an excellent recipe that is another of those quick made, dish-in-one meals that the family love on an esepecially hot day, stating that her grandchildren loved it when they came home from school. She called it "Soup-burger." To one , small diced onion sauced in fat, add a pound of hamburger, salt, and fry until almost done to which you add one can of condensed vegetabl-beef soup, (undiluted) cover and simmer seven minutes.

Done.

There you have your vegetables and meat in one dish, delicious and quick!

Try it. I hope you will find it worthy of your permanent recipe file.

I sincerely hope all of you Mothers and Grandmothers, too, had a most wonderful day last Sunday, Mother's Day. The day was perfect for the occasion. Some Mothers have their breakfast in bed, on that day, but the Editor took me out, so I didn't cook, and I enjoyed it very much. America went all out to show Mother how much she was preciated, and it will give us something to think back upon when we get back to our pots and pans again.

The Editor and I have completed the first round of annual District Meetings in our SPJST family, which were most enjoyable. Looking back, it was encouraging to see our Youth in our brotherhood taking such interest in the fraternity for many young officers were elected to posts of responsibilities in cur Districts. And our Youth Clubs, spring up all around us like •ushrooms after a rain. We have some very intelligent and talented young people in our midst, and one never ceases to to marvel at the professional qualities some of them perform. Equally impressive is the number of young people who still speak the Czech language when given a little encouragement. Some of

Stran g 22 them are timid for fear of mispronouncing a word or two, but once they know that we respect them for their efforts in speaking Czech in honor of our older members, they let loose with a Czech that is very easily followed and understood, It was evident in many instances that it would not take. them too long to again speak perfect Czech. Encourage your youth who still speak a little, to try so that they would not forget what they know.

My -letter is getting long again, I must close, so, may your days be happy ones among your flowers and may your health permit you to be there a. lot to enjoy this happines. If you are a driver, drive carefully and stay as beautiful as you can.

Fraternally. yours, The Editor's wife ) • 4. • (

SPJST SOFTBALL TEAM Dallas, Texas Dear Readers: Our softball team played State Farm Insurance, last Wednesday night, May 14, and defeated them by a score of 3 to 2 in a real thriller. I had mentioned in my last letter, that I hadd confidence we could beat State Farm and our players proved they could win this important contest by playing a very good game.

As the score should indicate, this was an exciting game up until the last man was put out. We scored 1 run in the third inning and 2 more runs in the fourth inning and the 2 winning runs were kocked in by Jody Rejcek ,the man of the hour. Also outstanding in victory was Jim Scoggins who hurled a very good game, allowing 3 hits, 3 walks and striking out 11 batters. Two of the hits were hit in the last of the seventh inning os State Farm scored 2 runs before they were snuffed out. Morris Till, our catcher, turned in another outstanding performance behind the plate. Actually, all the infielders and outfielders played flawless afield and gave Jim Scoggins errorless support.

This was truly a team victory.

Leading hitters were Jody Rejcek with 1 hit and a walk, Ted Dusek with 1 hit, Morris Till with one hit, Jack Moffett with one hit and a walk and Frank Mach III with a walk.

In the second gome, McCard. Music, a replacement for the Fireman's Fund Team, defeated Republic Natural Gas and Oil by a score 14 to 0.

We now have 4 wins and 1 loss and this leaves us in a tie for first place with State Farm Ins.

Wednesday, May 21, 1958

Strana 24 Next week, Wednesday Night, May 21, we play McCard Music, the second game, starting at 8:45 p. in. at Samuels Diamond No. 2. They have a very strong team, so this should be a very good game.

Despite showers all over Dallas, and :and members at the game. We really had another large turnout of friends and membersr at the game. We really appreciate this kind of loyalty and inspiring support.

After the game, most of the players, their wives, their children, and friends all met at a Dine Inn and enjoyed some "pivos", soft drinks, pretzels, chips and fritos. Everyone was happy and all helped to celebrate our victory. It was a good social get-together and it was nice that so many people could group together for some relaxation and fun.

So come on out to the next game, Wednesday Night, May 21, game time 8:45 p. m. We will be looking for you.

How To Make Our Letters Count Abroad The letters of Christopher Columbus to Queen Isabella were the first to bring back to the Old World the story of the New. Since then the volume of letters from — and about — America, has grown enormously. Today some 200 million letters are written by Americans every year to family and friends in Europe alone. Millions more go to other parts of the globe.

To people abroad words of friend to friend and family to family carry more eonvie! len than the words of statesmen.

Indeed, the personal letter is one of the simplest, least costly and most satisfactory means of building ;nut ual understandine and trust.

As proof of the power of letters, we need only recall that the tremendous tide of immi g ration to this country was stimulated to a very large degree, by letters from those who had come to America and found it worth writing home about.

What do they write about, these milliens of present-day correspondents? As ene would suppose, they write about the things they know best, the ordinary things of everyday life the way' they live, the o ay they work and relax, what goes on in their community. And they include snapshots, pictures, newspaper The thoughtful American letter-writer, moreover, always keeps in mind that he must show the same keen interest in his correspondent's way of life as he wants shown in his own. And he tries to answer frankly the questions and 'criticisms from abroad. He pictures from the evidence around him how America is trying to solve its problems at home and achieve its objective8 Overseas.

In this last respect, partiularly, he is a spokesMan for the United States, and he must do what he can to spread the truth about us. But what is the truth about America? What are the aims and political policies we want people overseas to learn about? These are some of the important points worth emphasizing.

1. America wants peace. Short of free- dom itself, peace is foreniost in the minds of all Americans. No nation need fear aggression by the United States.

Our record of peace is proof of this.

Over 40 years — or since the emergency of the Soviet Union -- the record shows not a single act of American aggression anywhere in the world. Instead it shows a whole series of steps to reduce the danger of war — proposals to disarm, outlaw atomic weapons, and put

might be called the fundamentals of our democratic faith. Among the fundamentals are a special few that our family and friends overseas, in fact people everywhere in the world, want assurance of.

Men and women everywhere want to know that America works for peace, that America believes in freedom, that America upholds the dignity of man, that America seeks the welfare and friendship of all peoples. Each of us can emphasize such important points as these in every letter we write abroad. Our simple testimony, in plain words, has an impact no official statement can equal.

Spreading America's message abroad is not always smooth sailing. Realistically, we should recognize that some of the unfavorable things said about America overseas are based on false impresSiOnS or hostile propaganda.

Probably none of us think that our 4. America upholds the dignity of man. country and its way of life are perfect.

We want to build a world in which our own and other peoples' lives are more secure. And we shall keep on doing all we can to enrich human life everywhere—to serve the needs rather than the fears of the world.

3. America works for freedom. We believe that every man everywhere is entitled to freedom — free to speak his mind, worship as he pleases, choose and change his leaders. And, best of all, perhaps, free to sleep at night, knowing that his family is safe from. sudden arrest, imprisonment or deportation, that just laws protect, him and these laws are as binding upon officials of the State as upon the humblest individual.

Spreading America's Message

Wednesday, May 21, 1958

The Role Of Life Insurance One of the most important factors in the financial plans of the professional man, particularly in the early stages of his career, is life insurance, The average professional man is required to spend many years, at considerable expense, in perparing for his life work. As, a result, a profession means a slower start and a later start in the accumulation of property. Substantial income is usually delayed until a great deal of spade work has been done and much time has elapsed.

During the period of relatively low earnings, when it is often difficult to make both ends meet, life insurance is the only method of providing the family with a reasonable degree of protection should the individual die prematurely.

How much insurance the professional man should carry depends upon the individual facts and circumstances. Obviously, the amount of life insurance will depend in large measure upon the individual's earning and will be limited by his ability to pay the premiums. In most insurance, however, insurance premiums are a very important item in the family budget and are often given priority over all but the bare necessities of living.

Another factor is the composition of the individual's family. For example, a doctor with a wife and four minor children needs more insurance than a doctor with no children and a wife who has an independent income.

Of primary importance, however, is the fact that the young professional man should recognize the value of life insurance as the first step in creating an estate. It should be purchased as early in his career as posSible when the premiums cost is the lowest, and additional insurance should be acquired as circumstances permit.

As life insurance is usually the professional man's first step in creating an estate for the protection of his family, it may also be his first step toward providing a future fund for his own retirement.

Most insurance policies, for example, contain options under which the cash surrender value can be converted into annuities for the insured's lifetime or can be withdrawn in installments for a fixed number of years. Consequently, as children grow up and become selfsufficient, as other resouces are accumulated, and as family protection becomes

Strana 27

One of the greatest mistakes in life is the belief that we can take the sweet, agreeable things and never touch the bitter and disagreeable things. The man who goes through life picking the roses and avoiding the thorns in his occupation, always doing the easy, pleasant things, and avoiding the hard, unpleasant tasks, weakens his character so that he cannot perform the duties of life when they are finally forced upon him.

If there are any lives which run their even course without effort or pain we have never heard of them. "Into each life some rain must fall. Some days must be dark and. dreary."

It is very easy to slide along the line of least resistance, to take things easy, and not feel obligated to exert one's self too strenuously but one never gets anywhere by adopting such a policy. The man who gets into the habit of pitying himself whenever he feels a little off, the man who finds every exertion an effort, will never accomplish much anywhere. The candidate for success must take himself in hand and train himself just as he would train a child or a pupil.

He must keep himself up to a standaatl whether he feels like it or not.

It is a good thing early in life to form, a habit of conquering the thing that is going to be good for us, doing the thing that will help us carry out our ambition.

Thousands of young people want a good education, but are not willing to take the trouble to acquire it; they are not willing to forego their pleasures with their associates. They would willingly get an education if there were some easy, short cut to it, but to take

Fire -- Will Kill!

During December and January, one could take ,up the paper almost every , day and read where some dwelling had burned, trapping a family or at least a few children or an old couple.

Every winter the same old stor y seems to unfold.

Fires and explosions arise from a variety of causes — playing with matches, smoking in bed, home dry cleaning, turning the gas on a heater before lighting the match or dosing a wood stove with kerosene to get it started.

Fires started for these reasons are unexcusable. Luck may hold for years, but sooner or later statistics have a way of catching up with carelessness.

Information on the major causes of fires in buildings n the United States is available from the reports of the National Fire Protection Association.

As indicated, dangerous smoking habits and the careless use of matches account for about one fifth of the 80,000 fires each year which damage or destroy buildings. Conflagrations of this type result mainly from persons smoking in bed or while drowsing in an upholstered chair, emptying pipe ashes or throwing smoldering cigarettes or burning matches into wastebaskets, and children playing with matches.

One eighth of the building fires are associated with the misuse of and defects in electrical appliances, or faulty wiring. A like proportion of the fires are reported to result from defective or overheated heating and cooking equipment.

Other Major causes of building fires include the ignition of rubbiSh, lightning, the misuse of flammable liquids, and defective or overheated chimneys.

These facts make it apparent that a large proportion of fires are preventable. The needless loss of life and propPay can be reduced through intensified

OUR. LIVING EX-PRESIDENTS AND VICE - PRESIDENTS

Wednesday, May 21, 1958 the 1956 Democratic party convention and campaigned for presidential candidate Adlai Stevenson.

Since President Eisenhower's smashing reelection victory, Mr. Truman has continued to be a vigorous spokesman for the Democratis Party. His articles — touching on virtually every major issue of the day — are syndicated in newspapers from coast to coast. Meanwhile, the bulk of Mr. Truman's time has been spent writing his memoirs, two volumes of which have been published.

Three former vice-presidents of the United, States are still living. One of them, of course, is Harry Truman, who became President when Franklin Roosevelt died. in 1945. Another is John Nance Garner, who served during Roosevelt's first two terms — 1933 to 1941. Since then he has lived quitely at his ranch in Uvalde, Texas. Now 88 years old, Mr. Garner's counsel is sought by his neighbors and old friends who cross the country to visit him.

Two ex-presidents of the United States are still living.
