foresee, an untimely death through ac-

caused the amount of insurance to
quadruple itself until it reached a sum
running into six figures. Surviving him
there remained several brothers and |
sisters as the only heirs. When the ex-
ecutors of the estate delved into the
affairs of the decedent, they discover-
ed that he, after the death of his
mother, had failed to name a new liv-
ing beneficiary in the insurance poli-
cies that he carried on his life. This
oversight proved to be very costly to
the amount of the estate. For under
inheritance tax law the estate was re-
quired to pay a tax of ten per cent of
the amount which ran into five fi-
gures. On the other hand, if a new
beneficiary had been named previous
to the death of the testator, no tax
whatever would have to be paid as in-
surance.

beneficiary is not subject to tax.

simple ones are embodied within it, too
numerous to mention here.

ones are those which result in permanent come
munity benefits.
Many blocks of new sidewalks are urgently needed—|
will have to be built soon anyway to extend present’
walks or replace old, wornout, dangerous walks.
Why not build these needed walks with relief labor!
Hundreds of other cities have found this type of
project ideal.
Curb and gutter construction, drainage structures,
park improvements, swimming pools, salvaging old
streets—these are only a few among hundreds of
beneficial concrete improvements that create maxi=

You, Mr. Taxpayer, can help your community
obtain needed permanent improvements like those
mentioned above. Make known to your local offi
cials and relief authorities the betterments you
think should be included in your community’s
relief program. They will be glad of your help.
Write or wire for literature and timely facts on spe=

These Men Stand for
Local Government, not Dictatorship
These men will give you Independent Pro-:
gressive Government not a dictatorship. They be-
lieve the People, not a Dictator, has the right to
select the men who will serve you in Public of-
fice. They are GOOD REPUBLICANS not PUP-
of | PET REPUBLICANS. They will think for them-
selves NOT as a dictator tells them.
Aren’t you tired of unequal assessments by
political hacks instead of competent men? Aren’t
you tired of waiting for the Luzerne By-Pass
while the present Commissioners play squat tag?
Aren’t you competent to run your own schools
without looking to the Court House for approval
of the teachers you elect? Aren’t local men en-
titled to jobs on the county roads without the hu-
miliation of having to sell their citizenship and
vote to Pittston and Court House dictators?
Wouldn't you like to see these men, when they get
jobs on the roads, doing constructive work in-
stead of tacking up PUPPET Republican’s cards
and tearing down those of opponents?
Why not give the county back to the people?
Why not some Measure of Self-government? The
Independent Republicans will serve you com-
petently, efficiently, honestly in the offices they
seek, and let you run your own town as you want
and see fit. :
Honestly now, aren’t you tired of office hold-
ers whose only interest is to stay in power?
Whose every move is directed by a nod from the
third floor of the Court House?
