and News, the Landisville Vigil and the Florin News were merged with
the Bulletin, which makes this paper’s circulation practically double that
of the average weekly.
EDITORIAL
It is beginning to look as though the laboring class want
to run business. Members of the C. I. C. took charge of all
the power plants in the Saginaw Valley, Mich., cjecting the
managers.

FAIRNESS ISCATION?
The government’s left hand knows not what its right hand
doeth! That seems to be a pertinent proverb in the light of
conflicting testimony on the policy that should actuate the
TVA in purchasing private electric properties in the South-
east.

Some autoist accidentally killed a deer on the river road
west of Marietta one night last week and drove off without
reporting it. Now the game protector there is trying to find
out who did it in order to fine him $100.
Right here we want to give that game protector a tip. A
lot of fellows deliberately, not accidentally, shot twenty-two
deer on the State turkey farm in Juniata County several
weeks ago. The State Game commission can give you the
names of all the men so why not collect $2,200.
GREATEST DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH
It isn’t widely known—but one American industry
ed the national pump” to the tune of $3,00,000,000 last year.
And it didn’t do it by going into debt, or exploiting the tax-
payer.
That industry was legal reserve life insurance. And of that
$3,000,000,000 60 per cent was paid to living policyholders,
and only 40 per cent to beneficiaries. Since 1930, the com-
panies have paid out the staggering total of $21,000,000,000.
The greatest distributor of wealth the world has cver
known—that’s life insurance.
And it didn’t take a cent from the taxpayers to do it. In-
stead, it paid millions in taxes.
“prim-
LIFE BEGINS AT FORTY
“Seventeen of the presidents of 28 gilt-edge corporations of
the United States are in the sixties. Four are in the seventies,
two in the eighties, and five in the fifties.
Fifteen receive annual compensation exceeding $100,000 a
year. The smallest compensation reported is $48,750, and
the largest is £303,816.
The youngest man in the group is W. S. Gifford, president
of the American Telephone & Telegraph Co., the largest
corporation. He is 53.
With four exceptions, the corporations paid dividends
throughout the depression.
What does it mean? To Sales Management,
that dug up the information, it means that for executives
“life begins at forty,” and that they are in their prime in the
sixties.
Yet we've heard men say they can’t get a job after they are
forty.

MONEY IN YOUR POCKET
The insuring public is convinced that a rate differential be-
tween the safe driver and the driver who has accidents is the
proper’ way to underwrite automobile liability risks. Hun-
dreds of clippings of newspaper editorials, he added, receiv-
ed by the National Bureau since the Safe Driver Reward
Plan was first announced, show that this plan “is the stuff’ a
rating plan must be made of, if automobile liability insur-
ance is to be in accord with what the public believes is right.”
Under the Safe Driver Reward Plan, which has now gone
into effect in the majority of states, car owners insured by
any one of a large group of companies will receive a rebate
of their premium at the end of the year if they are not in-
volved in a reportable accident. Thus, the safe driver will
pay less for his insurance protection, while the dangerous
driver will pay a higher rate. As a result, every insured mo-
{orist is offered a definite, dollars-and-cents prize for operat-
ing his car safely and sanely.
It will be extremely interesting to watch the effect of this
on the 1938 accident experience.
NO HOLIDAY FOR DEATH
Last year accidental deaths in the United States declined
4 per cent from 1936. But there's nothing in that to cause
us to throw out our chests—Nature, not man,
of the drop. The mild, cool summer, according to the Na-
tional Safety Council, was responsibld for almost all of the
decline, inasmuch as heat deaths were 4,500 below normal.
In fields where man is the governing factor, the death and |
injury total, with the exception of home accidents, continued
to rise. The greatest killer of all time, the automobile, claim-
ed 4 per cent more victims than it did in 1936, for a tolal of
39,700. Occupational deaths climbed 6 per cent, to 19,000.
The grand total of deaths from all accidental causes was 106-

The direct cost of these accidents is estimated to have reach-
ed the staggering total of %3,700,0600,000.
There is 1937's accident record, expressed in cold figures.
It is bad enough looked at that way. It is infinitely worse if
you regard it in terms of human values—mutilated bodies,
widowed mothers, orphaned children, blinded and crippled
individuals, gore and carnage. And perhaps the most sombre
reflection of all is that 90 per vent of the accidents were in all

body was ignorant, somebody took a chance, and there was
no holiday for death.
Will 1938 repeat this grisly toll of life, health and dollars?
