Linton, president of the $300,000,000 Provident Mutual Life Insurance company, warned policy holders of the danger of inflation resulting from the Roosevelt administration’s program of expanding bank depos. . its through federal borrowing. His statément, printed in the company’s magazine, was similar to many made by Col. Frank Knox, Republican candidate for the vicepresidency, charging that New Deal spending of two dollars for every one taken in threatens the savings of millions of Americans. It follawed on the heels_of the President’s ‘‘non-political’’ conference of insurance company heads in an attempt to offset apprehension aroused by the Knox charges. The belligerent Colonel’s latest blast, made at Helena, Mont., was: “T repeat that under the present policies of this. administration no life insurance policy is secure, no savings account is safe, because the present spending policy leads straight to inflation. It is not the insurance companies or the savings banks that are unsound. They are as safe as the Rock of Gibraltar. It is the administration of the United States government that is unsound.”’ Mr. Linton warned that insurance policy holders have a precious interest in balancing the budget of the United States. “The essence of life insurance,’’ he said, ‘‘is a promise by the life insurance companies to pay dollars in the future when a given contingency shall occur. ~The policy holder knows that the dollars of tne future are going to be used to purchase the food, clothing, and shelter that his dependents will need if he is called away by death, or that he and his wife will need after his earning days are over. “To maintain a sound currency a . ) nation must live within its income. . & Emergencies may borrowing necessary in times of depression. However, the longer the borrowing is continued the graver the danger that the situation will get out of ios and lead to disastop? A. A. Ballantine, former “undersecretary of the treasury, in a siaiement issued from Chicago, charged the Roosevelt administration with sacrificing the security of policy holders and bank depositors upon the political block. “Mr. Roosevelt knows which side
his bread ‘is buttered on politically,’’ said Mr. Ballantine. ‘‘If it is necessary to plunge this nation so deeply into debt by reckless and politically minded spending printing press money is the only logical outcome, he will-do it unflinchingly—even if it makes a piece of waste paper every life insurance policy and savings bank book in the United States.”’ Butter Imports Up -BUTTER3 WHAT THE NEW DEAL HAS DONE FOR THE DAIRY REGIONS rd emia, = =<..-. .

Says GOP Platform Will Save Sugar Beet Farms SCOTTS BLUFF, Neb.—President toosevelt ‘has attempted to hamtring the sugar beet industry of he West, Senator Arthur H. Vanlenberg declared here. He cited he establishment of quotas. favor. ag Cuban and Philippine sugar prolucers, the horizontal decrease of 25 ver cent in the sugar tariff, and the eduction of the sugar tariff in the. vuban reciprocal trade agreement o the lowest point.in a half cen. ury.
