Naturally, some confusion has arisen over Social Security Act as it applies in the Territory. It is new and due to delay in mail service as a result of the strike much of the information has been slow in arriving here. However, the material is here now and every employer should take ecarly action to take advantage of it Most of the mis-understanding; has. arisen over the eight-employer section. Som» ‘have understood that if the employer employs less than eight it is not necessary to fill out the Employer application blanks ailable at the Postoffice. Assurance Is given by Administrator Hugh Wade that this not the case. Every employer of iabor must fill out the application blank. Its major purpose is to de- termine the number of employees the employer has. It is true that those with less than eight employees the now is They have & kans have heard from ! ;J'm\mry‘ but they required to fill out these | blanks along with all employers so that the necessary ! information canvassing employees can be ob- ined. Due to delay some extension of the time Nimit is but employer should make i £ 185 get his blank at once and fill it) but few minutes.

He has received it, ‘pressed down and running over. The sweep of his victory crosses sec- tional lines. It ranges under the Democratic banner raany States which are normally regarded as Repub- Iican. 1t leaves no doubt of the President’s great rersonal popuiarity. A large majority of the American clectorate has now lodked at the record of the last four years and found in it evidence which warrants a vote of confidenc Even in these t hours of triumph the President must ask himself what is the true significance of the great victory he has Plainly, if the result is Jjudged in the light of his own appeal to the electorate, | this viete endorsement of broad principles he Las followed in the past, rather than of specific meas- ures he now advocates. The votes which have re- clected Mr. Roosevelt are votes cast by large numbers people who believe that his administration has Iped- greatly tore hope, to equalize opportun- to prevent ses of the recent past and to! conserve American institutions by adapting them to changing tim, All this the President's victory means.
