Pension Question.
THE NEWS-UKVIKW 1 in re
ceipt of the following question
leisuidlng tlio stuUi old uge pen
giou: "Would a woman mat 75
years of ueo ou clllf iblo for
the old ugo pension if ulio
owns any property oven though
tho income was totally Inade
quale to maintain her? If sho
diuw a pension would she l:o
compelled to give a lien on her
property to re-lmburso tho
state for any monoy paid her?"
As we understand tho law eith
er the 1933 old age pension act or
tho 1935 act and its amendments
the pension la ror the needy aged.
Under tho terms of the act, real
property owned by the penBlon ap
plicant iB pledged to tho state as
security for the pension payments.
Tho person who receives tho pon
Diou, or his heliB, may redeem the
property upon payment of the
amount paid; in pensions plus an
interest charge of throe per cent
per year on the money. Tho homo,
or other property of the aged per
son, remains In ills possession.
Tho News-Uevlew Is Informed
that the slate ponslon Is grunted
upon tho basis of need. If an appli
cant has a small Income, from any
source whatever, he is not barred
from receiving a pension allhounh
tho county court will consider the
other Income whon sotting the
amount of the pension. Tho ulm Is
to add enough to the uppllcunt s in
come by means of 'tho pension, to
care for aclual need.
The passage of tho sales tux will
not change theso principles of the
existing old ugo pension system in
this Btuto.

hus been sent to tho Steamboat

Shuiieue loved Kent Dainerell over

They wero slnguinrly lucky Jn
being undisturbed during tho long,
busy days, but of courtto it couiu
not last. One evening when they
wero sitting before the fire, loo
lazily content even to talk, they

"All right, Stuart. Kul go uhcud

He mixed jmmu drinks and she

kitchen, contrite. Khaiiene had
worked so hard till day, she need
ed her rest. There was a noble
cocoa nut frosted cuke on the kitch
en table, but no Sharleue. The
kitchen door whs locked on the
inside, so hu knew she had not

slept quietly on like a tired child,

When at lust he went tnlo his

out the window. Sharleue was
spading up a new flower bed. Half
awake, ho smiled to see the ardor
with which she attacked it, slender

quickened to the swing of her lithe
young body as she threw tne
ppudofulB of earth, her earnest face
flushed under tumbling (. Drown

someone tried the front door and
then knocked. He unlocked it und
there stood Julie, tanned, smiling,
impudent, guily appareled.
Hello, durlfng!" she chirped,
throwing herself Into his arms.
"(Josh, I'm glad to see you again!"
"When did you get? In? he ask
ed with stiff lips.
Yesterday in Frisco. . 8 flew
down here last night." She dropped
her arms and pushed past him Into
the studio, surveying it quickly.
'Ciouh, everything goes on Just

eyes o: Stuart, who hud remained

There was some sort of dlsturl)-1
unco ut the buck door. Stuart
heard Shurlene's voice and Instant-!
ly Julie cocked her cur In that di
ed Ion. !
Shurlenc came through the
kitchen into the studio, calling as
she cumc: "Stuart, are you up?
fho grocery boy is hero and I
need u dollar und thirty-nine" i
Sho stopped short, seeing Julie
for the first time. The two women.
astounded, measured each other
for un Instant. Then Shaiiene
lifted her chin ever so little and
went hack to the kitchen, closing
tho door.
"Well, for crying out loud!"
said Julio when she could get her
breath.
"When are you going to Bond
her husband back to her?" Stuart
demanded harshly through .set
teeth.
"Him?" Julio's Hp curled. "She
enn have him buck any minute!
Maybe ou don't think I'm sick of
that piece of cheese afte three
months of him on a South Sea is
land!" She looked ut Stuart wtth
sudden willfulness. "t;ee, you look
good to me, kid!"
Ho did not answer und his ryes
were like blue glaciers. Site
shrugged after a moment of un
comfortable silence and tossed hot
head. "Keally," nhe said elegantly, "I'm

doir to l he kitchen and laughed
shrilly. Then nhe swaRKered out

Sharleue was just taking pop
over from the oven when Stuart
came Info tho kitchen.

"What'- the use," he broke in
desperately, and his voice wus
harsh, "you won't bo here to see
them come up! You saw Julie here

Well"
She lowered her lashes and
looked at the shifting pattern of
shadows cast on the ground bji the
trembling euculyptus leaves. j At
What I must know Is are you
glad he's back?" Sho waited in un
bearable suspense for his answer.
Stuart shrugged. I'm glad for
your suke to have this preposter

in the spuded garden and tho
breakfast table. She was hurt as
she had never been hurt before.
'Ho you wunt tne to go, Stu
art?" she asked, fighting back the
tears. ' Has it- been so dreadful
for you?" ,
"Us time it ended." was all ho
said.
There was a long silence. Then
Sharlene asked, very low: "You
believe that I'll go back to him

morning that the Julie menace is

"Julie!" Her lip curled bitterly.

"Well, I Imagine he'll be peni
tent after four mouths of Julie!
You can make your own terms."
She regarded him resentfully.
"What a life for me! And yet you
seem to wart tn push me into his
arms.
No. I Just want to hasten the
inevitable and get through with
it."
She tightened her lips und got
up to clear Iho table. "It's Juwt
as well to know where I stand,"
she said, slamming the dishes to
gether. "Since I'm such a nuis
ance to you, I'll go gladly. Uut
1 wont go back to him!"
She curried the dishes Into the
kitchen, head high In the air.
Stuart stared intently ut a bird
plucking worms out of the newly
spaded bed. JJreseittly he got up
and went through the house. "I'm
going down town for supplies." he
called to Sharleue In the kitchen.
She did not turn from the sink,
but splashed water loudly from
the tap to cover the quiver of her
voice as she called buck: "All
right."
Before making his purchases at
the art store, Stuart stopped lu to
see Mr. Kolsom.
"I want to deed thut little house
In Hollywood buck to Sharlene,
Mr. Folsom."
"Why, .Mr. Pennington, I'm sure
she doesn't want it back. It gave
her such pleasure to give It to
you."
"Hut H will give her a place to
live, don't you see? And surely
there'll bo some small Income left
out of her own or her mother's for
tune "
"Just what are you talking
Mlmtit. Mr. lVnninglon?"
"Sharlene. She told ine about
being broke "
"Broke? hid she but that wao
a joke! She's bad heavy losses of
course but she rWuses to take
them seriously. About a month

arguing against her throwing

She took It aa tf I'd given her a

if she was going to a fire, and 1

Odd. Some whim or other wo

"I Joes she know?
'Of course."
"Well," Stuart said awkwardly,

Oh. no. I'm sure though it was
nice of you to suggest it. Built for

MASK FOR COMMUNISM
Editor Ne win-He view : The po
litical game looks like a puzzle to
me, arm one bard to solve. We used
to hear talk about democrats aud
republicans and once In a while a
third party would come onto the
field for a short time only, then
vanish ad mysteriously as it came.
Uut dcmociacy and the democratic
party stood for certain fundamen
tal principles. Republicanism and
the republican party stood lor dei
iuite lundaiuentul principles and
both stood for Ihe constitution till
so much of the subversive propa
ganda has flooded our country.
These lust few years the talk
has been about liberal democracy.
Is there any such thing as liberal
democracy? What does liberal thus
used mean? It means communism.
Communism ami democracy do nut
blend; either comunism or democ
racy must rule the tenets of the
party and its platform.
Now we see in the papers about
liberal republicanism and republi
can libeiulism communism under
a different name and the republi
can principles do not blend.
We are seeing liberal democracy
working out und when we read In

the paper that some public maa
is talking about running for otfica
as a liberal republican, let's look
up bis record, for by a man's rec
ord e shall know him. Not alwayt
can we judge a man by what friend
or foe may say of him. but by his
affiliations and public acts.
This is a crucial year aud we
should be alert with wide ope'u
eyes and ears.
Bight now we as a country are
so in debt that 1 am wondering if it
is possible to ever extricate our
selves from national debt? Yet the
spending orgy goes on.
Several years ago 1 was in New
York City and saw many sights:.
Wonderful parks, wonderful build
ings, subway, elevated and surface
cars make a stranger from a small
town almost dizzy. Among all the
wonders In the great city 1 saw
what is called a "bridle path"
where those who are able to own
or hire a riding horse may enjoy
themselves, isn't it fine that $5u0,
000 of taxpayers' money Is to be
used to ake the bridle paths
"more attractive for horsemen" of
News York City?
When and how are all these
debts to be paid? Oh, yes! $1,238,
OOo has been set aside to enable
Indians to repair their houses.
Why should any money, even
?80U, be paid to three men to Btudy
Russian rainfall? This is certainly
a liberal administration and when
we have reached the limit of spend
ing who will be able to rescue the
nation? Do we want to blindly let
things go on or awuken to our re
sponsibilities? MRS. EMMA P. WQODS.il

OBSERVATIONS
I'm not much of an art critic,
but once in a while I notice some
thing that fixes itself in my mind
either because 1 think it'B excep
toually good or very ridiculous. I
saw a statue last summer and since
then, every time 1 think of it 1 get
an imaginary backache.
This thing was a great bronze,
likeness of Sacajawea and she has
her left foot forward and is point
ing with her right hand. If you
want to know what is bothering:
me, try standing like that and see
if you don't get a puiu in the side.
This Indian woman was a great
friend to the whites and it seems
she ought to be depicted as having
ut least sense enough to know how,
to stand.
There are conditions of course
under which we all act funny. She
has a baby strapped on her buck
and it's possible that the kid Is,
kicking her on the kidneys.
