EDITORIAL
Authorities in New York city have adopted the right
method in handling the strike situation. In one of the 5
and 10 cent stores fifty employes put on a sit-down strike.
The police department came along “threw” every individual,
out. The management hired new

35 women and 15 men
clerks and the store is doing business.
The police will handle every sit--down strike in a similar
way in order to prevent trouble.
What a pity they don’t have some of New York City
out at those Chrysler factories and other similar plants.
Men have a right to strike but they have no right or law to
take one’s property.

EMPTYING THE GRAB-BAG
If you are an average person, government spent $142 of
your money last year. If you are head of a family of four
that means $568 of your earnings went for taxes.
The total cost of government, according to the Commenta-
tor, was close to $18,000,000,000 in 1936. That represents
spending at the rate of almost $1,500,000,000 a month; $49,-
000,000 a day, Sundays and holidays included, and $3 1,000
an hour.
These are staggering figures—and another
made by the Commentator is also staggering. In 1913, the na-
tional income was $3143 per capita, and the total government-
al debt, Federal, state and local, was only about one-sixth as
much, $59.29.
In 1936, our national income was $469 per ce to-
tal governmental debt $422!
The American people are burdened with a debt of incalcul-

politicians to spend extravagantly—while they
scramble for their part of the bounty like islanders diving
for coins.
Is it possible that we will not awaken until the grab-bag is
empty? :
\ : : :
and Monday's a was followed by a
strong wind and as a result many roads throughout this sec-
tion were made impassable by snow drifts. As usual, the
township supervisors were on the job and within a short
time had their roads open but not so with the state roads.
These roads were only blocked in spots and would have re-
quired very little effort to open. Instead it was left up to
traffic to look out for itself.
As late as noon Friday, a large dual wheel truck was stuck
in a drift on the Marietta pike at the intersection of the Cole-
brook road and delayed traffic at that point for some time.
Up to that time the “lower road” on this pike was not pass-
able.
As late as 4:30 p. m. Friday, three days after the drifting,
the much traveled state highway between Manheim and East
Petersburg was in bad shape.
At the above time the writer waited for some time while
motorists got through as best they could when a Lancaster-
Manheim bus ran into a drift, was badly damaged and had to
be towed to Lancaster. Half a dozen large trucks were shovel-
ing their way through at this point, about a mile south of
Manheim, while about thirty or more motorists were com-
pelled to wait and watch the procedure.
About an hour later two large scrapers appeared on the
scene and opened the road in about fifteen minutes.
That’s the kind of road service motorists are
throughout this section at the present time.
Our county autoists alone pay $985,481 in license fees and
when a few inches of snow falls, they must crash the drifts
or wait until the sun melts the snow.

PROTECTING YOUR PROPERTY VALUES
In practically all parts of the country substantial advances
have taken place in the cost of building construction. The cost
levels of depression have been left far behind. This creates
a number of problems the property owner must face—in-
cluding that of revising his fire insurance protection, if neces-
sary, in the light of current values.
Writing in the New York Journal of Commerce, the secre-
tary of an appraisal company points out. that construction
costs advanced 4 per cent in November, 1936, alone, and
adds: “Unless insurance coverage on buildings is stepped up
in line with increasing costs the property owner who suffers a
fire loss is likely to find his indemnity far below the require-
ments for replacement. Indemnities are based on value as of
the date of loss or damage and the value of existing build-
ings must necessarily advance with costs of construction. In-
creased coverage will, of course, mean increased premiums,
but deficient coverage means assumption of a risk which only
penny. wisdom and pound foolishness can permit. Further-
