‘ALFALFA BILL' HAS SPY ARMY IN STATEHOUSE Oklahoma Governor Wars on Use of Liquor by Legislators. By Unite 4 Prci* OKLAHOMA ClTi*, Feb. 18.—A *py System that observes the activities of liquor dispensers, lobbyists and political enemies has been established In the Oklahoma capItol by Governor William H (Alfalfa Bill) Murray. Governor Murray prefers to call his operatives scouts" and declines ,0 comment on whether they are |he reorganized Squirrel Rifle brigade, a burlesque military organization but an efficient spy system, that served him during the constitutional convention. Murray, who still smokes 5-cent cigars and wears a brown hat while conferring with high officials in the Governor’s office, started his liquor war by announcing he would order an immediate search of any capltol office where it was reported whisky had been cached. Little liquor has been seen at Ihe Capitol during the present session, Governor Murray said. ‘However, my scouts report a little and it must cease altogether,” he warned. “What a citizen does at home—what he eats and drinks—is none of my business, nor that of any one else as long as he does not disturb his neighbor,” Governor Murray said. “A citizen’s home is his castle, but this is the statehousc and it should not and shall not be made a bootlegger’ joint and house oi questionable moral conduct.” Asa safeguard against activities o flobbyists Governor Murray is advocating erection of a legislative dormitory, near the Capitol building.

INGA CARNIVAL HONORS WALES IN PERU VISIT Pageant and Dances Are Held in Honor of Two British Royal Travelers. By United Prcts CUZCO, Peru, Feb. 18.—Ancient grandeur of the Inca civilization was studied by the prince of Wales today as he continued his visits to the most unusual and remote spots of South America. The prince and his brother, Prince George, glimpsed for a few hours Tuesday night the most colorful features of the royalty with which an heir to the British throrife would have mingled on a similar visit four centuries age. An Inca pageant and dances, such as were witnessed by the last of the reigning Inqas Atahualpa was presented for the benefit of the royal visitors. The princes participated later in the dancing, the prince of Wales initiating the dance with the carnival queen. The princes particularly enjoyed the mystic dance of the Adoration of the sun.

EIGHTY-S

To the Policy-holders: Most of us have labored together for a considerable period My service in 'Nylic has covered forty-two years. I have been President of New York Life Insurance Company for nearly twenty-four years. In twenty-four years you have numerically been multiplied by three; and your collective property in this Company has been multiplied by three and a half. You have made a great demonstration within a generation of the power that lies in co-operation between “humans.” You have become increasingly convinced of two great truths. First, —that “no man liveth to himself,” and the less he tries to do that the more truly and fully he lives. . * Second, —that men are naturally honest and that those in positions of responsibility and trust in business are more honest and much more capable than men are as a whole. Emerging from the frightful financial disasters of 1930, people are wondering if it was all or in large part necessary. They are asking why such heartbreaking experiences should naturally cease in countries organized to preserve the strength and the inspiration that lie in individual efforts and in the ownership of private property. American life insurance reaches its present greatness just in time to answer that question. It is true that we have had in this the freest and most individualistic section of the world (United States and Canada) a disturbing experience. Could it have been avoided substantially? I answer it could and some day such happenings will be largely avoided. As we emerge from this setback in our economic system we discover that one thing remains unchanged and substantially unaffected. It is almost literally true that every man who owns property is poorer today than he was a year ago; but to the extent that his possessions are represented by Life Insurance he is as rich today as he was a year ago. They (his life and Endowment policies) Have not shrunk in value—except as he may have used them as collateral to relieve his needs in other directions. Suppose the total outstanding insurance a year ago had been 220 billions instead-of half that—suppose the assets of the Companies had been 38 billions instead of half that. How much less would the speculation and loss have been in 1930? Life Insurance Companies will ultimately achieve those totals and greater ones and they will yearly represent an increasing and conservative factor in the whole property problem. Life Insurance assets are not used speculatively. With relation to our total national wealth those assets represent teadily increasing factor. They increase the factor of stability and decrease the factor of chance. That gain has been steady for almost a quarter century. Outstanding insurance will double and assets will double long before the wealth of these countries doubles. The lesson of it all is that economic changes of profound significance and of fundamental importance are taking place as the result of the amazing growth of Life Insurance. Life Insurance does all that its devotees have claimed and now it emerges from this world catastrophe substantially untouched and rendering a public service that few people ever realize. IT WAS ORGANIZED TO MITIGATE THE TERRORS OF DEATH. IT HAS BECOME A VALIANT AND AN INCREASING DEFENSE AGAINST THE ECONOMIC DISASTERS THAT PERIODICALLY DEVASTATE THE BUSINESS WORLD. In other words, we are, through Life Insurance, in these great, free countries, preserving individual enterprise and the rights of individual wealth and at the same time we are utilizing the almost immeasurable power of united and common action. We are gaining on economic disaster and we shall go on gaining because Life Insurance will go on gaining. In free countries there is no way to stop speculation; to do that arbitrarily would not be consistent with the principles of freedom. But! Yes, a great big But! When Life Insurance has become the great reservoir into which the people put their savings increasingly, speculation will become relatively less and we shall finally have adopted, almost imperceptibly, anew economic program. This will be founded on co-operation, brains and fidelity. That's a pretty good description of the elements that have made our Life Companies great-co-operation, brains, fidelity and I add, hard work. The balance-sheet below will show what a splendid part your Company is playing in the total. New York, February 4, 1931. DARWIN P. KINGSLEY, President
