Pies sto milionu americkych ritual a Zen je opravneno hlasovat 8. listopadu, ale jestli mohou bYt minule volby vzaty za me fitko, 4 z katclYch 10 zfistanou doma protote mysli, te na jednom hlasu nezaleti.

Historie je pina ntipada dokazujicich te nekdy jeden hlas rozhoduje cele vplby.

V nedavnYch volbach za senatora S. Statti v North Dakote kongresnik Burdick byl zvolen mere net jednim tisicem hlast vetSiny. Kdyby jeden voile v katdem precinktu hlasoval jinak, Davis by byl vitezent.

NezapomenutelnYini jsou ten volby za senatora v Texas pied dvanacti lety, kdy sen. Lyndon Johnson zvolen vet ginou jen 87 hlasa. Vgech hlasa odevzda,no bezmala tri miliony. To je dukladnYm poueenim co vase cesta k volebni boxe mute znamenat.

V presidentske volby v 1948 jen o jeden republikanskY hlas vie v katilem volebnim precinktu v Americe mohl zvolit Deweyho presidentem.

Jim Blaine v 1884 ztratil stat New Yorku jednim tisicem Jelikot ztra tit tento stat, ztratil presidentstvi. Kdyby jen jeden vane it polovine new yorskych volebnich precinktit -mull jinak, ne byl by se stal Grover Cleveland presiden tem.

Tom Jefferson byl zvolen presidentem jednim hlasem vetginy v elektoralni kon. venci. Zrovna tak jednim hlasem vetginy zvolen presidentem John Adams a Rutherford Hayes.

Jim Farley jednou kekl: AmerickY lid vie se namluvi o politice a miens hlasuje, nail kterYkoliv lid na svete. Neni asi eloveka ye Sp. statech aby nemluvil o Kennedym a Nixanu. A kolik z nich si zajistilo pra y() hlasovat? V Dallas je kampanni fitadovna zamestnavajici jedenact ten. Ale jen jedna z nich ma zaplacen poll tax.

Plato se vyslovil o politicks nedbalosti takto: "DoJail"lids trpi za nedbale obeany Urn, to jsou ovladeni gpatnYmi atedniky".

Kdyt vtak videl, to Bolenka chodila nej ak zamlkla, zarmoucena, slitoval se nad ni a jeclnolio dne ji fekl: "Pojd' sem, moje holubieko, a povez mi, co te Vedel telrna, to jest to jeji srdeeko, ale neprozradil to, chteje se dovedeti, zda divka mu daveruje a zda se svori.

Botenka mleela jako zatezana.

"Dedeeku, netrapte mne," zanatikala

"No vaak nebude zle. On to Pan Rah dobte zakidi, uvidig," Vega ji dedeeek k velike radosti Kliekove, ktera pozorova, la celY dej.

"Jste to piece jen doktor," tekla s fisinevem. "Dovedete le git srdeeka, mladYch 11th."

"To ty dobte via, vid'," usmal se StarY. "Sama jsi to zkusila, kdya jsi chtela, abych to pod &pee uvedi."

"Tot' vite, ae by to nebylo bYvalo tak trychle," kekla Kliekova. "Ale vy jste kou zelnik." ' "A nejsi rada,," zasmal se vesele Start.

"Jsem velice rada," tekla zardela kova.

Boaenka poslouchala tento rozhovor s veselou tvati. Videla, ae tyto d ye duae jsou hotovy ji pomoci. Proto take dedee kovi vae vypaveldela ae mela Jenika rada od te doby, kdy jej ptivedl z vlasti.

"No a proto take bys rada tohoto sveho mildoka dostala"? ptal se.

"Tot' vite dedeeku, ktera pak divka nechce dostati ptedmet sire lasky? tekla Boaenka, mazlive se tulle ku Staremu.

"Via Boaenko, nerad se micham do elzich zaleatbosti," fekl Star, "ale tady asi budu musiti. Vadyt' se jedna o tebe, meho koeidiho pokuaitele a pak 0 Jenika, ktereho mam opravdu rad pro jeho rozgafnost. Protoae tedy vim, ae tebe boll srdeeko a jeho nyni take, pokusim se, abych vas vyhojil.

VI, koeieko, ono by se pak zdalo, ae chceme mu vnutiti nageho miladka." — "Ale dedeeku, nesmejte se mi," tekla vyditave Boaenka. "Vy to tak nemyslite.

Ale i ta;k, main jej rada."

"No tak jej mej ra,da a snad se ti naskytne pilleaitost," teail Star Y a Kliekova clodala: "Rozhodne, rozhodne, hlavne zaleai na Boaence. My ji vaichni pomilaeme."

"Tak to bude dobie," zatleskala vesele rukama Boaenka, "tak to bude dobte, Pan Bi ,ae se mi naskytne pkileaitost a Jenik bude mai."

XII. Plynul ten eas rychie a dostavila se velika slavnost v Plzefiskem Parku. Byla slavnost vyroeni, pki nil ani jina, leta KilCka neschazel. Proto take toho roku se vaichni strojili no, slavnost, ba i Jenik svolil jiti s nimi, al jak pravil, piece jen to jest pfilia velike vyznamenani, le jej pfijmou mezi sebe.

"V tom neni addna, milost," fekla Boaenka vesele. "Budeme tam vaichni tak

"Ovaem, ale ja neumim ty zdejai tance. Já tak jeate ten valeik, nebo polku, nebo tak etverylku. nebo Besedu," kekl Jenik.

"Vy tancujete Besedu," zvolala Boaenka. "To jest dobte, protole to jest o dobre taneeniky zle."

"No, kdyl byste dovolila, prosil bych o tento taneaek."

"Milerada, milerada," slibovala spane Boaenka. "A jiny ne?"

"To si nedovolim ani obteaovati, al leda byste byla nezadana," kekl skromne Jenik.

"Ale, ale, ttebas vaechny," zvolala Boaenka, pti coma se zapahla jako krev.

Jenik na ni pohledl trochu udivene, ale hned aertovne tekl: "A kdybych chtel vaechnY?" "Tak je dostanete," kekla se skiopenou hlavou Boaenka.

"Doble tedy, dobte sleeno.

"Netikejte mi sleeno, ale jak jest tady zvykem Bolenko."

"Tedy, Bolenko, kdyl chcete, budeme spolu tancovati, al mne navolite," kekl Jenik.

"Nikdy," vyklouzlo Botence ze rtft.

Hned se vaak vzpamatovala a cela popletena odbehla.

Jenikovi se zaealo v have jasniti. . pochopil, le tato divka, kterou povaloval pouze za mladou divku, lehkeho srdce, skuteene jej ma rada.

A on? Vadyt' v srdci jeho dosud rana byla eerstva. . rana hluboka.

"No uvidime," tekl koneene a pohodil rukou.

Ptipravy k slavnosti byly ukoneeny a o slavnosti Jenik gel s KliekovYmi. Bylo to diveni, kdo to jest.. .

"To jest jiste nejakY napadnik Bolenin," tekli jedni.

"Citi jiste peknY gro g," dodali druzi.

Koneene vaak bylo rozluateno tajemstvi: "Vadyt' jest to ten tesaf, nebo truhat, kterY sem ptijel z oech, nejakY chudY ptibuznY nebo podobne."

A nosieky se zdvihaly do povetti, ae bylo strach, aby do nektereho nenapr gelo. Jak by ne? Boaenka, dcera prospivajiciho a hledaneho kontraktora pkijde na slavnost s delnikem. Tohie piece tady nebylo.

Ovgem ,mame dernokratickoa republiku, jsme si vaichni rovni, ale co to Bolena mysli, le si nevybete piece nejakeho lepaiho eloveka.

Jenik ani Bolena si nebyl vedoini celeho toho zajmu. Jenik stale jen byl ve Vlasti a nemohl zapomenouti na vaechny ty uddlosti, Boaenka pak byla cela zaujata Jenikem.

Wednesday November 2, 1960'

The Spread of Fraternalism After the Civil War, there was a very rapid expansion in the volume of commercial life insurance and the situation resulted in a confused state of mind in the public. They did not understand the reserve. They did see that only a part of the money going to the+ ceinpanies was being used to pay death claims. The feeling of questioning distrust increased.

The forms of policies of the commercial companies WERE EXPENSIVE, and the poor man found it difficult to obtain life insurance at rates which he could afford to pay.

This was the situation existing when the first fraternal benefit society was formed, and is one factor that influenced the ready and wide-spread idea of fraternal system of today.

The American fraternal benefit system really began on October 27, 1868. On that evening, John Jordan: Upchurch, a railroad master mechanic, organized the first lodge of a society which he called "The Ancient Order of United Workmen." His idea in its organization was to provide the working men with greater privileges and opportunities than they found in the usual trade unions that existed. Upchurch was a Mason, and the fact influenced him to prepare a ritual for use in his first lodge. This ritual conferred a series of degrees, and utilized' dramatic ceremonies to teach the lessons of brotherhood and upright living. Included in the program, was a plan to provide these working inen with protection for their dependents. They felt that this had been denied the working man, because insurance in the commercial companies was costing more than the poorer classes could afford.

The protection plan, however, was not actually adopted and put into effect until about a year after the original lodge was organized.

Of course there was no scientific rate making at that time and the method accumulating funds was yet unsound.

The plan called for the payment of one dollar by each member into the insurance fund. Then when a member died, the member's dependents Were paid up to a limit of $2,000.00 out of this fund, and another dollar was collected from each member to prepare, for the next death. The plan was popular, and the lodge was prosperous, and grew more and more influential . The story of its success spread and similar lodges were organized in cite of Pennsylvania, and then in other states.

VESTN/K— WEST, TEXAS for insurance protection among the working classes at rates which they could afford.

Some societies, to make the plan more practical, changed that method of levying an assessment for each death to a plan of "flat assessments" at regular interval, but uniform for all ages of members. Then followed the "graded assessments" plan, which graded the assessments according to age of entry.

The fact remained that all of these assessment plans presented problems of adequate rates to provide funds 'to meet all obligations as the societies grew older, and on the basis of fair treatment to both old and young members.

But each marked a step of progress toward strong and solvent financial position_ During thili process, many of these newly formed societies prospered for a while, but fell by the wayside, some by failure, others by mergers. Their careers, however were not in vain. Many thousands of dollars were paid to widows and orphans who would not have received anything otherwise, because the fraternal protection was all they could afford.

The course of the fraternals in these years had been one of drifting and experimentation. The progress that was largely the result of independent action by one society or another. Competition was bitter with commercial companies, who were doing everything they could to stifle the spreading sentiment for fraternal insurance. So the initiative was taken by the Supreme Lodge of the AOUW and in November 1886 a meeting was called to Washington, D.C. to organize the National Fraternal Congress. From this time on, the progress was noted. First thing that received attention was the 'natter of legislation.

Due largely to the activities of the commercial companies, laws unfriendly to the societies were being passed in certain states, and some of the commissioners were imposing unfair restrictions. The Fraternal Congress was successful to remedy the situation.

In order to protect the legitimate fraternal societies The National Fraternal Congress succeeded in putting through the NFC. Uniform bill, still later the Mobile Bill and last the New York Conference Bill, which established the standards of valuation, and compelled societies on an inadequate basis to improve their condition of solvency by specified methods and provided requirements for publicity as to financial condition.

In 1916 The Fraternal Congress accomplished the passage of the Whole Family Bill, which made possible to write juvenile insurance and out of this developed the juvenile departments. In

Strana 13 The idea of fraternal protection was novel and attractoive to the public. It was appealing because it was born of a need recent years the National Fraternal Congress of America has fought successfully the disposition of some states to iwpose upon fraternals a premium tax similar to that in effect for the somMercial companies.

Insurance law specifically defines a fraternal beneficiary society as any corporation, society or voluntary association without capital stock, organized and carried solely for the mutual benefit of its members and their beneficiaries, but not for profit and having a lodge system with ritualistic form of work and representative form• of government, and which shall make provision for the payment of benefits.

The local lodge is really the wage earner's club, the lodge became the school of Americanism for the foreign born. The lodge became the forum for improvement of working conditions in industrial life, and a foruerl for civic improvement. The fraternal lodge became the training school for future leaders in many lines of endeavor. The fellowship of fraternal lodge has brought courage to countless numbers of otherwise lonesome individuals It has uncovered much talent that otherwie would have remained hidden. It has taught self-confidence in speaking in public, and many other things in a social way, too numerous to mention in this article. Since our last Convention in 1956 in Temple, we in our SPJST have given spe'cial attention to our Youth. This endeavor is bringing us wonderful results and we are hoping that our Youth will be better educated in fraternal aims in the future.

Answer to a Question There never was any doubt in qur mind that some of our members of our State Legislature have never before 'in their lives been able to ideserve a $25-aday salary.

Now the article 3 on the general election ballot is purely an attempt by our legislature to get us to increase their pay to $4800 a year and $12 per day extra for expenses for the first 120 days of each regular session (which time could be, increased). That could amount to $1440 for 120 days.

Now I just ask you, on your conscience — will you vote for Amendment 3 on the General Election ticket?

Waco Lodge No 66 Holds Tackey Party Members from Linden Hall, Lodge 66, Waco, had a masquerade and tackey party for themselves last week, and they had a ball!

Here all the p,seudo-ladies had a chance to romp, to show off their lovely underpins, while the darkies, clowns, Zorro, and Hot Cats, bottle babies, harem maidens and tacky folks in general brought the merriment to a high pitch. Even vivacious Carmen Miranda was not missing.

The party was exclusive of the public, just home folks and invited guests, but it was a barrel of fun. The Dulock Orch. added to the gaiety.

Prizes were awarded tothe cutest, funniest, most original in the adult group and then in the children's class, and both groups were well represented.

As the Editor walked in, a combo of Linden's Sprouts were serenading the Birthday celebrants with "Happy Birthday" and the whole gathering was singing. Those having birthdays in this and the next month were honored, Then a handsome photographer in oversize coat, baggy pants, came shuffling up to welcome us and shake our hand while his nose lit up like a flashlight. He had trouble making his tripod under his camera box stand up and later some sprout fetched a hen's egg out of the camera box.

Ole Brer Harms turned prospector for the night, while his brer organizer, Emil, was a hot tom cat, and was he hep!

Sister Hanus was a counterpart to the prospector, while ∎all of the grandkids of the 0. Hanuses were masked.

The Frank Parma family, also represented 100 per cent. Frank was a handsome Tyrolean, while his Missus was a lovely 1Vluchacha, daughter Barbara wore her mother's "in the Twenties" dress, can you imagine sister Libbie slim as all that — while precious two year old granddaughter was an adorable baby clown. These are just two of the families represented and there were many, many more, all playing their part and all having a hilarious time.

Everyone present agreed, it was the most natural, most merry, most congenial group of merry makers assembled in a long, long time, at the least expense and least amount of work.

Coffee, hot chocolate and pastries were served while the thirst quenchers found relief at the rear of the hall.

"Watch Me Settle.

An Argument" This is rav big day.

They've made all the speeches, and debated all the promises. The issues have all been thrashed out.

NOW there's a strange kind of lull, the leaders look at me. Who's made the best case? They want me, as a voter, to decide.

Once arguments weren't settled that way. The winner was usually the strongest. But that never proved Who was right.

Then somebody thought of voting instead of fighting, and we owe that man a monument.

We can get as excited as we like during an election. We can argue at the top of our voices. We can disagree right down the line. To other nations, this uproar looks and sounds frightening.

They think we're coming apart.

But the day after, we close ranks and go forward.

That's democracy, and I think it's pretty wonderful. So do millions of others who wish they had it.

This business of making a choice now and then is one duty of the free man to his way of life.

Because freedom isn't just the absence of tyranny . It's the presence of the square deal, and the helping hand, and the idea that my children can do better than I did. Freedom gives a man a, chance to do his best. We have to work at freedom to stay free.

I say YES to all that every time I vote.

I say 'YES to all the hopeful things freedom means to me and will mean to generations of Americans yet unborn. *•

• 4 • When Is One Old?

An individual is young as long as he is a doer. When he is willing to sit back in the easy life of a spectator it is a sure sign of approaching old age, regradless of how many years he has spent on earth.

Youth assumes continuous growth — growing after the body has matured and had its increase in mass --- growing and developing is skill and experience. Years wrinkle the skin; but to give up activity wrinkles the soul. You are as young as your faith, confidence, enthusiasm and energy. You are as old as your dbubt, fear, despair, and love for the easy chair.

No man who continues to be a, doer is old . It is only when he relapses into the onlooker class that he and the world may know that youth has deserted him. ) • ol• • WHEN CHANGING YOUR ADDRESS USE THIS COUPON Supreme Lodge, S.P.J.S.T„ Box 400, Temple, Texas I am asking you to change my address of The Herald..

One of Dallas' hotel Chefs passed it on to the television audience. Because it was so much like, the prune cake Mother used to make, I copied it down, later got the recepe from him, so 1 could be sure of the ingredients.

In a bowl sift together four cups cake flour, two teaspoons baging sada and three cups sugar.

In another bowl break six eggs, beat a minute, add two cups vegetable oil, beat for three minutes, add two cups buttermilk, two teaspoons nutmeg, two teaspoons cinapron, one teaspoon salt and two cups prunes which have been cooked and chopped up. Mix. Add to dry ingredients then pour into three greased and floured nine-inch pans. Bake in a moderate oven 350 degrees for about 3540 minutes. Cool.

For an icing, he gives: Beat three and a half egg whites until foamy, then ,gradually add four cups confectioners' sugar, continue beating until stiff.

This is not the thing to do — we must continue to look to the brighter side of life, to the good, the fun, the happiness. the future, our studying and toil will bring us, and if we do this we will find enjoyment in the hardest of tasks and the most difficult conditions. However, most of all we should look to our fellowship.

All of the members of Lodge 166 of Beaumont, Texas, have a very good cause to look at the brighter side of life because we are going to celebrate our Second Anniversary on the 6th Day of November. This means that we have been sharing our fraternalistm with each other and our friends, and practicing brotherhood for two wonderful years; yet this is only the beginning of the years, centuries, or even ages in which we hop e to practice fellowship and carry on our SPJST to many greater heights.

We are celebrating this anniversary ,at the Gulf Sulphur Picnic Area on the Port Arthur Road at 11:30 am. November 6th. There will be games and fun for all, plus a wiener roast to keep us going, so we can spread our fraternalism.

Since the hospital licensure program of the Texas State Department of Health become effective last January, 692 temporary licenses have been issued to hospitals in Texas, pending surveys for inininnarl requirements.

Over 34,000 beds are dispersed among the nearly 7000 hospitals licensed to date — approximately one hospital bed for every 257 persons in Texas.

The national average of hospitals accredited by the American Hospital Association is 9-1 beds per 1,000 population, or about one bed for 110 persons.

The Texas figures do not include state or federally operated hospitals or intitutions, which automatically excludes veterans hospitals. However, it does in',hide special clinics for maternity cases; eye, ear, nose and throat, cancer and other specific diseases or conditions.

Harris County leads the parade in keeping with its large population with 49 hospitals and 5,021 beds. Dallas County is second with 38 hospitals and 3,897 beds.

At the other end of the scale, 22 counties have no, hospitals serving the population within the county and four cities have hospitals (or clinics) with only one bed.

Probably the oldest established hospital still in operation to day, not including a couple of institutional clinics — is the St. Mary's Infirmary in Galveston, established in 1866, The largest hospital in the State is the

Sports Coiumn Austin — Fishing without a license continues to top the list of game and fish violations in the state. Wardens filed against 173 persons in Septorgber for failing to have the required fishing license, according to J. B. Phillips, assistant director of law enforcement, Texas Game and Fish Commission.

This a slight drop from the 193 arrests made the same month in 1959, but a big increase when compared to the 29 persons found fishing without licenses in Sept. 1956.

Game wardens apprehended 123 persons last month for game law violations and 25 of these were hunting in closed season, 17 were hunting from automobiles, 12 failed to plug their guns for three shells and 10 were hunting at night.

"It is evident that some people are determined to hunt and fish without re spect for laws which have been established to preserve our game and fish," said Phillips. "They don't realize that by their very acts of illegal hunting and fishing, they are hurting themselves as well as those who do respect our game laws."

According to Phillips, the good sportsmen (those who realize the need for game and fish laws) have always been a great help to wardens, by reporting violators and suspicious activities. They are wise in doing this. These individuals, along with the landowners, should be congratulated for this great service.

Once again, as the hunting season arrives, violators can expect an ever-growing pressure as wardens and all good sportsmen join together to promote game law enforcement in Texas."

• • Spiked buck deer can be taken legally only in 105 of the counties where the Game and Fish Commission has the authority to regulate hunting and fishing.

This means that all counties not under regulatory authority (and including Lavaca County which is a regulatory county) are controlled by the general law which defines legal bucks as those with

VEST/kill< — WEST, TEXAS one pronged horn, according to W. 3.

Cutbirth, Jr. assistant executive secretary of the Commission.

This is the first year that spiked bucks have been made legal game in all regulatory areas. Last year they were legal in Possum Kingdom area , The law for these areas defines a buck deer as a deer with hardened antlers protruding through the skin.

"Some persons are under the impression that spiked bucks are legal in all counties of the state," said Cutbirth.

"This definitely is not true. Anyone kill ing a spiked buck in counties under the general law shall be prosecuted."

Before packing up for the hunt, Cutbirth suggests that every hunter check to be certain that spiked bucks are or are not legal in the particular county in which he chooses to hunt.

Game wardens and other Ceti:mission field personnel can tell you if your county is under regulatory authority. Check with the branch office nearest you.

These offices are located in nearly every large city in the state.

•• Dove hunting ended in the North Zone Oct. 30, according to H , D. Dodgen, executive secretary of the Game and Fish Commission. He cautions all hunters to be sure not to go dove hunting in the North Zone after Oct. 31.

Doves have been legal game in the South Zone since Oct. 7 and hunters can take them, there until Dec. 5. The hea,vy rains across the state could scatter the birds. However, reports coming in from the South Zone indicate that hnnting in most areas is fair to good.

The cold weather recently pushed large numbers of doves across the Red River. Hunters in the North Zone have reported a •great improvement in the dove situation from what it has been earlier in the season. Many of these birds have moved across the state and into the South Zone hunting area and should be abundant there through the end of the season.

Good Example Needed

Some of the officials of our federal government frequently express alarm about the loss of moral tone among the people generally. They point out the evil of "payola," expense account swindles, juvenile delinquency, misleading advertising, and other evidences of a society suffering from moral sickness.

Thinking persons who keep up with the news are aware of these developments and are deeply concerned) about them. They are anxious to help find a cure. They realize that no doubt many remedies will be needed and many types of treatment will have to be applied before the United States can be restored to our old faith in fundamental principles of integrity.

Rut it is doubtful that speeches from officials of the government in Washington reach the root of the trouble. It would be a comfort if we could depend on this source for some real help.

To get right down to cases, the federal government might well set a few good examples instead of the shockingly bad ones that have helped to poison the Nation's bloodstream. Although there are admittedly many causes of the situation in which we find ourselves, we have to conclude that Washington has long been one of the centers of the infection and that much of the trouble which has spread all through the country started Mr. and Mrs. Edmund A Sykora are in the Nation's Capital. the parents of a baby boy, Ronald EdWhat about a government that harmund, born Wednesday, Oct, 16 in bored traitors and continued to shelter Providence Hospital, Waco.

Air Pollution Texans are prone to think of their state as one of wide open spaces, while the truth is, cities claim the overwhelming proportion of the State's populattion.

It is fallacious for Texans to think that air pollution is a problem only in Pitsburgh and Los Angeles or that Texas cities can't have their own air pollution problems.

The fast is that even small towns with a cotton gin as the sole industry often have their own pecular air pallution. problems.

Air pollution aboterient engineers from the State Health Department's Division of Occupational Health have thick files on instances of local air pollution problerris in small and large 'cities alike.

Several Texas cities comprising. large urban complexes have experienced somewhat severe air pollution conditions, especially during temperature inversions which prohibit the natural dissipation of pollutants.

However, active cooperative programs undertaken by municipal, industrial and civic groups can do much to alleviate the air pollution problem in most cities.

Industries can install special smoke reducing apparatuses and devices which significantly reduce odor, soot and dust.

Municipalities can utilize land-fill disposal of refuse instead of the once ,pop7 ular open incineration. Cities often pas;s ordinances which, make it mandatory for new industries to install air pollution control devices before operAtior4 can begin.

Civic groups can spread the word that everyone can do his part to control air pollution. Many experts claim autom6biles as the number one contributor to air pollution in some areas.

This cause can be greatly reduced by having automobiles properly tuned, so that they are operating at peak effielL ency. Home , burning of leaves is another big contributor to air pollution, especially in the fall; and trash burning not, only contributes air pollution, but is insanitary as well.

Air pollution can bring on Gryifig, sneezing, and coughing; can corrode buildings, splotch, laundry, ruin paint, and generally make city living unpleasant unless everyone cooperates to hold it down.

The Presidency and the Electorial College After the popular vote is cast in a Presidential election a specialized body conies briefly into being. A group of persons in each state, equal to the state's total Representatives and Senators in the U.S. Congress, meets in each state capital. The group in all the states, although they never meet in a single body, are known collectively as the Electoral College. Such a College will meet after the elections in November.

The Electorial College, now obvioUsly no more than a formality, was established by the Constitution to insure that the choice of a President should be the best possible, without regard to political faction. In a country as large as the United States, direct voting was impossible because of lack of information, great distances and poor communications.

It was generally felt that, as national, or interstate, information then went, the citizens of any given state would probably not know about able men in other states. So the Electorial College was devised and the electors given wide discretion in their choice of a Persident because, in theory, they, were to be Chosen form among the best informed and most responsible people in each state.

But times have changed. States are no longer isolated. Modern communications familiarize the voter not only with the issues, but with personalities. (The first Nixon-Kennedy debate on national television in. September was watched by an estimated 75 million people). No longer must the President be elected by reprea sentatives of the people. He is now, thanks to present-day communications, elected directly by the people themselves.

Since most Americans know very little about the Electorial College, a brief description of its function in modern times might be in order. First, one should realize that the Electoral College is not a college in the academic sense. It is not an institution as such and does not meet in any one place or building. Its membership is not continuous. Once it has done its constitutional duty it disbands for another four years.

Each state has as many Presidential electors as it has both Senators and Representatives in College and they all belong to the party which polls the largest populraar vote for President in the state. The electors meet at each state capital on the Monday following the second Wednesday of December, some five weeks 'after the citizens have cast their

VbST N K WEST, TEXAS

votes.

The task outlined long ago for these Presidential electors ends with their meeting in the state capital, for the oerican people have already spoken and maidef their preference known. With the outcome a foregone conclusion, the election of the Electoral College is a mere formality. Thus the electors have only to forward the results to Washington where, less than a month later, the members of both houses of Congress meet in a single body.

These two tellers appointed by the Senate and two by the House receive from the presiding officer the certificates of ballots sent by the Presidential electors. ) 4 • (

If You Are Ever in a e Remember Tune to radio and television broadcasts of latest Weather Bureau information. In case of power failure, a batterypowered radio will come in handy.

• Go inland. Get away from beaches and the low water front which may be swept by storm waves. Hurricanes bring abnormally high tides, high waves.

If your passage to safety is over a road likely to be under water, leave your present location in time to avoid being trapped by high water. Traveling at the height of the storm is exceedingly dangerous.

If your home is out of danger of waves and is substantially built — anchored to strong foundations and with a roof securely fastened — it is possibly the best place for you to stay.

Put loose material and movable objects such as garbage cans and porch furniture where they cannot be blown against the building or through a window. Movable awnings should be raised and securely tied or removed entirely.

Keep trees pruned away from your home. Dead branches, overhanging branches, and• those which may sway against windows or roof are the most likely to cause damage.

In seriously threatened areas board up windows or put storm shutters in place, at least on the sides exposed to the most violent winds. Shutters should be securely fastened several hours in advance of the expected arrival of the storm.

They are difficult to handle in a high wind.

Use good lumber and attach it firmly to the building. Makeshift boarding or insecure shutters often blow loose and do more damage than none at all.

Garage doors and others having large exposed areas must be secured particularly well.

Strana 27

Sterilize and fill jugs, bottles and cooking utensils with fresh water. The water supply may fail. A tub filled; with water bay be useful too.

One or more windows can be kept open on the lee side (the side opposite from which the wind is coming — to provide some ventilation and, under certain conditions, to prevent wind damage.

If wind or flying objects make an opening on the windward side of the building, wind pressure will build( up in the building. Having an opening on. the lee side will allow this pressures to escape, minimizing the interior forces tending to lift the roof or push out the walls.

Only small openings are advisable as long as the windward side remains intact . But as soon as windows are broken additional openings should be provided on the lee side to help equalize pressure.

Have a flashlight in good working order readily available. Be careful of fire.

If oil or candles must be used for emergency lighting, use them carefully. In an emergency a bucket of sand can be used to absorb spilled fuel or to smother a small oil fire, better still would be a fire extinguisher of a type approved for use on flammable liquids. Be sure it is in good condition and you know how to use it.

Have extra food on hand, food' that can be eaten with little or no cooking.

Remember electric power failure may leave you without refrigeration.

Emergency cooking facilities should be in safe working condition. Be particularly careful with appliances in questionable condition because of long disuse. They may cause a fire.

When the storm is over don't hinder first aid and rescue wark. Unless qualified to render valuable emergency assistance, stay away from disaster areas.

If you must drive immediately after a storm, drive carefully. Watch for fallen wires and tree branches. In areas near swollen streams, beware of washouts and undermined pavement.

Don't touch dangling or loose power lines or electric wires. In a storm the live power lines may become entangled with metal fences, telephone and other wires. Contact, in some cases would be fatal.

Even after water service is restored, it may be wise to boil or sterilize drinking water until otherwise advised by your local health department.

Be careful of fire at all tik.nes. Damaged communications may result in a delayed fire' alarm; debris and obstructed; streets can slow response of fire apparatus and low water pressure can make fire fighting difficult.
