PAGE FOUK 1 SORE Y s+: wee Plan To Give Public Tea At Local Aquarium Sunday’ The importance of the Key West Tropical Aquarium and its attractive setting, as well as its value to the community as an in- stitution to attract visitors to the city will be stressed Sunday after-; noon when a public tea will be given at the aquarium. + Decision to have the tea, in om der that ail Key Westers would come to the aquarium, was reach- ed by the aquarium board. The Key West Woman’s Club and the Key Westers were not cognizant of the beauty of the aquarium or, the labyrinth of tropical fish life which is there. For that reason it was decided to have the tea. | Emory Lowe Pierce, superin- tendent of the aquarium, and | other members of the personnel will be on hand throughout the afternoon to guide visitors through and point out and ex- plain the variety of fish in the ‘tanks and their habi During Key West Garden Club are spon-| the afternoon a musical program soring the affair, and those in will be presented.

A large attendance You and Your Nation’s Phantom for Taxpayers By HARLEY L. LUTZ Professor of Public Finance, Princeton University The reserve provisions of the old- age security act are illusory, in so far as they provide any prospect of carrying the load of future old-age 4 “penefits by lighter taxation than would be required with- out reserves. This becomes evident if we consider the na+ ture of the pro- posed reserve. The act pro- vides that the excess of any annual appro- priations for the old-age plan over the sum required for the benefit payments of the year, shall be in- vested in securities issues by, or fully guaranteed by, the United States. The interest due on all securities held in the old-age reserve account shall be paid to it, and any securities that mature shall be redeemed in its favor. These cash receipts are likewise to be reinvested in federal debt paper. It will be possible, at first, to buy United States bonds and notes in the open market. The law requires that the account shall derive at least a 3 of the membership is expected. GREETINGS: Citizens of Key West and Mon- roe County Not being able to see all of you in person, may I, through the medium of your local paper, use this method of bringing to you a message from former Key West- ers now living in Miami and Dade County. Approximately 5,000 Key Westers are now living in Miami and Dade County. We have a club known as the Key West Club of Dade County and quite a number of Key Westers are affiliated with the club. The club has an executive body consisting of 27 members. It is our aim to enroll every former Key Wester and to work for the betterment of South Florida. To make South Florida (which in- cludes Key West) the garden spot of America, and the only way to accomplish . this is for everyone of us to pull together. There is nothing like a united front when you are trying to ac- complish something. Of course, there are times when we will have different opin- ions, when criticism should be in- vited, but let the criticism be of a constructive nature. Citizens of Key West and Mon- roe County, join with us, your neighbor, and let’s work for the things that are going to benefit South Florida. The Key West Club of Dade County, through its executive body, deliberated a long time be- fore endorsing a candidate for Governor and finally arrived at the conclusion that Dan Chappell was the one man who was nearest to all of us—a man who is a trug friend of Key Westers. Dan Chappell has, on numerous occasions, demonstrated his sin- cerity in fighting for a competent, sensible, workable, economical government. He has _ demon- strated his sincerity and loyalty to his constituents; he has al- ways stood and fought for the things he believed to be for the best interest of the greatest, num- ber of our people. When we have elected Dan Chappell as our next Governor, former per cent yield, and whenever the mar- ket prices of government securities are such that this rate of return can- not be realized, the Secretary of the Treasury is required to issue to the account special federal debt obliga- tions bearing 3 per cent interest. In effect, the federal government is required to borrow, at 3 per cent, all funds that cannot be invested in the open market so as to yield this return. Suppose that this process goes on for years. The so-called “reserve” will have grown at the rate of 3 per cent compound interest and in time a large quantity of United States debt obliga- tions will have been accumulated as assets in the old-age reserve account. But what is this “reserve”? It is nothing but the promises of the fed- eral government, sustained, and given ‘value, by the obligations on the part of Congress to levy taxes sufficient to pay the interest and principal. In some future years the officer in charge of the account may make up a state- ment like the following: Amount of benefits due in 1 Interest earned on secur- ities owned .......... Balance to be provided by taxation .......... $3,000,000,000 (Address questions to the au Affairs | | From the accounting standpoint, it! is correct to say that the securities owned have earned one billion dol- | lars for the year, and that therefore only three billions need be raised by taxation. But as a matter of fact, everything that-is earned by the securities which are owned must also be provided by taxation. These securities represent no claim to wealth or income except a claim against the federal government for the interest due, and the only source | of such funds is federal taxes. In this ; Particular year and in every ether | year, only such benefits can be paid : as are provided by taxes of one sort ! or another. The reserve, as a means , of easing the tax load, therefore, is! an illusion. ‘ There is a way by which a reserve might temporarily lighten taxation. | This is by sale of the securities, which ; would mean that the government had | borrowed from the public in order to } pay a part of the benefits then due. If the above financial summary were | to read—“Receipts from sale of secur- ities, $1,000,000,000,” then it would be true that only three billions would be | needed from taxation. The law does ; not authorize sale, however, and it is | clearly implied that the special 3 per | cent obligations aré_ngt to be sold. It is possible thet she, fallagy;qas eae » The due to the suppose@:; reserve of an insuran company owes a certain amount to its | policyholders ant itinvests:the: | mium receipts in“ bonds and other securities. The.ineome. has vestments helps to pay losses and ex- penses. The lafger the ‘reserve “ahi the more it earns, the lower the pre- t miums. But any insurance company owes policy payments to only a small pro- portion of the whole people. If it / buys a bond, someone eise must work ; and save to pay the interest. If the ; bond has been issued by the govern- ment, the interest is paid out of taxes. | In such circumstances the reserve is ! real. and it helps both the company and the policyholder. Those who are insured in this company are charged | smaller premiums because others are | paying interest on the bonds held as a reserve. In the case of the old-age security reserve, however, there is no outside group that is working and saving to pay interest on the bonds held as a reserve. These bonds are the debt of the whole people, who must pay taxes to foot the bill, whether it is in the form of interest on federal bonds in the reserve account or simply a bill for old-age relief. thor, care of this newspaper) TO HONOR PO WITH MONUME MEMORIAL TO BELOVED POET TO BE UNVEILED OPPOSITE SACRED HEART CHURCH The following article is produced from The Bulletin of the Catholic Laymen’s Associa- tion at Augusta, Ga.: “A monument to James Ryder Randall, author of ‘Maryland My Maryland,’ and belovel poet of the south, will be erected opposite Saered Heart Church here, and will be unveiled by Chapter A, United Daughters of the Con- federacy May 28, by Miss Ruth Robinson, of Jeffersonville, Ga., granddaughter of Mr. Randall.

H Folks. when you look into the face of Dan Chappell, you see sin-, cerity, honesty and a_ willingness, to help you. You see written in his countenance a desire to serve humanity.
