SIMON'S SALVAGE STORE J. SIMON it BRO. NSPECTION SERVICE IS TOO SMALL FOR PROTECTION OF LIFE Secretary Redfield Scores Legislators for Not Provid ing Proper Supervision, Washington. Dec. SI. A severe ar raignment, not of the United States steamboat inspection service, but of the legislators and the public which permit the service to work under piti ful conditions as regards men and money, is contained In an extract of the unusual report of Secretary of Com merce Wililam C. Redfield, made public today. The department, he sets out, Is com posed of ZC" persons, which includes Inspectors, clerks and messengers, and which he holds is not nearly sufficient for the work which the public looks for from the department. Secretary Redfield lays responsibil ity for the Eastland disaster In the Chicago river, which cost more than 800 lives, directly at the door of tho American public. He bets out that twice in 1914, before the disaster, he made public the shortcomings of the department and asked for additional inspectors and men. "And now," says the report, "for the third time the department makes these facts clear and asks the authority, which it now lacks, to protect the lives of Innocent passengers.

It is designed for those who wish to lay by present savings for future use. The purchaser of this bond deposits with the EQUITABLE a def inite amount each year until he reaches tlx aje of 5 5 (or, if pre ferred, 60 or 65), when the bond will become fully raid, and after which the purchaser will receive a fixed income for life. This bond is not only absolutely safe, but its guarantees are such that it becomes one of the most economical investments that can be .made. White it is not an insurance contract, it is issued by an insurance company, and the company is consequently able to "insure" tho dei posits made by the purchaser, with the following results: 1. If the purchaser should die before reaching the stip ulated age, the EQ1J1TABLL" will return the sum of the deposits that have been made. 2. If the purchaser, after reaching the stipulated age, should begin to receive the income, but should die before the installments equal the sum of the deposits, the differ ence will be returned. Thus it will be seen thai the return may be more in the case of long life it will be much more than the purchase price, but can nerer be lest. It is true that Interest will not be considered, if, In the event of premature death, a return, as explained above, is made. But this will be offset by the fact that the bond is a participating contract, and it is reasonable to expect that small dividends of profits will be earned. For the man who does not need life insurance, but who wishes to provide for his own future, and for the working woman who is in dependent today and wishes to be independent for life, no better investment could be found. If you will furnish us with your date of birth and specify at what age (55, too or 65) you would like an income to begin, and amount of income (monthly), we shall take pleasure in submitting a statement of the INCOME BOND accurately fitting your case, and will give you further details regarding this admitable method of making sure provision for the future.
