Jim Jones lives out in the country, twenty miles from
his office, and drives to work daily. ~The drive takes place
largely on a modern highway, with the last few miles confined to busy streets.
The drive can be made safely in about thirty five minutes. But Jim would feel ashamed of his record if he ever took
that long. So, by “stepping on her” hard, he manages — to
make it in twenty-five minutes, and sometimes less.
The
other day, in fact, he did it in twenty two minutes—a saving
of thirteen ,minutes over the time taken by more conservative pilots.
That saving of time is a great boon to Jim. It permits
him to spend ten or fifteen minutes talking about golf to the
boys at the cigar stand, or reading the funny papers. And the
day he made his:record he spent the saved time, plus quite a
few minutes more; boasting about it.
Of course, Jim\has to weave in and out of traffic _occasionally, cursing the slowpokes. who move along at a sedate
forty five. And sometimes he has to steal a right of way. Now
and then he misses a crash by an inch, and after the first flush
of nervousness passes, he chuckles to himself about what a
good driver he is. Once he did have a minor accident, but the
insurance company paid for that:
There are a good many thousand Jim Joneses driving

SCOUTS BUSY
OVER WEEK END
The next week end promises to be
a busy one at Camp Pahatsi accgrding to Leland Smith, camp
ehairman. He says each district has
been asked to get three or more
men to help in the construction of a
permanent concrete pile dock in Kil
born Lake, to replace the old delap
idated swimming float which coul
no longer be used with absolute safety, without considerable repair. It
is hoped to secure enough’ men who
ean help Saturday as well as Sunday. Materials will be taken up Friday for the nine pile, 12x16 structure which will be placed about 125
feet from shore.
This was one of the projects for
camp improvement discussed at the
executive board meeting held at Kil--born Lake last Sunday and attended
by between 30 and 40. Other projects discussed and authorized after

G. 0. P. Platform:
Restore Liberty’
Strikes at Dictatorship of
New Deal: Landon’s
Position Clear.
Cleveland, Ohio.—Almost a
complete reassertion of the Constitution of the United States, in
the face of three long’ years of
attack upon it by the New Deal,
was the platform adopted by the
Republican National convention
here. To its restatement of the Ameriean principles of a national liberty
based upon personal liberty-.was. added
the vigor of a telegram from Gov. Alfred M. Landon of Kansas, making
clear his interpretation of certain important planks as the unanimously selected’ nominee of the party for ‘the
Presidency. ;
The platform roundly condemned the
New Deal for the President's usurpation of the powers of congress; flaunting the Supreme court; violation of
citizens’ liberties; countenancing dan
gerous monopoly; passing laws contrary to the Constitution; violation of
the Bill of Rights, and repudiating the
obligations. and traditions of
the nation. It deplored federal waste
and use of public funds to politicai
ends; unfair investigations ; intimida
tion of industry; Coercion of voters;
appeals to class prejudice and destruc:
tion. of public morate.
A summury of the platform follows:
Constitutional Government and Free
Enterprise
We pledge ourselves:
1. To maintain the American system
of Constitutional .and local self government, and to resist all attempts to
impair the authority of ‘the Supreme
court of the United States, the finai
protector of the rights of our citizens
against the arbitrary encroachnents
of the legislative and execitive
branches of government. :
2. To preserve the American system of free enterprise, private eompetition, and equality of opportunity.
Re-Employment.
The only permanent solution of the
unemployment problem is the absorption of the unemployed by industry
and agriculture, (To this end, the platform advocated abandonmert of al!
New Deal restrictive, competitive and
coercive policies—especially those
which restrict production.)
Sanne, Relief.
To end confusion, pertisanship.
waste and incompetence, we pledge:
1. The return of responsibility for
relief administration to non-political
local agencies familiar with commnnity problems.
\2. Federal grants-in-aid to the states
and territories while the need exists,

Security. \
We propose a system of old age Security, based upon the following prin-\\ Se
ciples:
1. VPay-as-you-go.
2. Every American citizen over six;
ty-five should receive the supplementar; payment necessary to provide a
Minimum income sufficient to protect
him or ber from want.
3. Kaech state and territory, upon
complying with simple and general
minimum. standards, should receive
uated contribution in proportion to its
own, up to a fixed maximum.
4. To make this program consistent .

We propose tc
practical measures for meeting
the probleins of unemployment insurance,
Labor.
We pledge -ourselves to:
Protect the right of labor to organize and to bargain collectively through
representatives of its own choosing
without interference from any source.
Prevent governmental job holders
from’ exercising autocratic powers
over labor. Sarg
Support the adoption of state laws
and interstate compacts te abolish
sweatshops and child labor, and to protect women and children with respect
to maximum hours, minimum. wages
and working conditions. We believe
that this can be done within the Constitution as it nowestands,
Agriculture.
Following the wreck of the restrié
tive and coercive AAA, the New Deal
administration has taken to ‘itself the
principles of the Republican policy of
soi] conservation and land retirement.
This action opens the way for a nonpolitical and permanent solution. Such
a solution cannot be had under a New
Deal administration which misuses the
pregrum to serve partisan ends; te
promuce scarcity and to limit by coercive methods the farmer’s control over
his ‘own farm. eee
Our paramount object“is to protect
and foster the family type of farm,
traditional in American life, and to

\ NEED: FOR HOMES
“The Federal Housing Administration, which insures home loans made
by private lending institutions ona
basis of 80. per cent of the value,
