JACKUNG ROSE TO FAME FROM POVERTY Was Mothered By An Aunt; Orphaned at Two "Somebody ought to put in a good word for Daniel C. Jackl-ing- 's Aunt Abigail," says a New York news writer, Lemuel F. Parton. It seems that Aunt Abi-gail took the two-year-o- ld orph-aned boy to her farm home near Apple-ton- , MO., pavir him a first-cla- ss bringing up. In reviewing the achievements of Jackling, the writer also gave an interesting personality sketch of the newly-electe- d president of the American Institute of Min-ing and Metallurgical Engineers. This writer, "used to meet Col-onel Jackling occasionally in San Francisco, big. genial and friend-ly and living spaciously on a whole floor at the St. Francis hotel in San Francisco. He is six feet one inch tall and weighs 225 pounds, a bit lucullan in his tastes, in the wide open way of the west. He has been generous in his "benefactions to his two home towns, Salt Lake City and San Francisco, is highly esteem-ed in both of them. He worked his way through the Missouri State School of Mines, taught two years, and landed in Cripple Creek with $3. He wore overalls there, but store clothes in Bingham, Utah, and Bond Street suits when he got into his stride. He is the operating genius of the Kennecott company, the greatest copper company, in the world, faithful producer for Gug-genheim and Morgan interests. His fortune grew as he learned to sweat values out of low grade ore, wringing the last drop of value from the lean porphyries. He mixes happily in mine sumps and exclusive clubs all over the world. He is 68 years old." j OREGON BOATSMAN VISITS DR.

Thus pie employer, in a sense, is an agent for the Federtal Govern- - . ment In collecting the tax from his employees and in maintain-ing a record for the employee, in order that he will receive full credit for wages earned during his lifetime. I believe that the problems encountered by the members of this group in connection with the tax and information returns and the maintenance of records can best be answered by questions from the Individual members, and I will attempt to answer any questions concerning those matter in the discussion period to follow.

This Act of Congress is only part of the complete program to main-tain a fairly level economic pros-perity in the nation. It is sup-plemented by, or supplements, other programs, such as emer-gency relief, federal housing, the AAA and other similar programs. However, it does appear evident j that the Social Security Act docs in a large measure, care for many of thes ills of our nation in a the entire nation and opportunity permanent flashion and will con-tinue to do so over a long range of years. There are a number of oecu- - jj patlons which are not included j under the provisions of the law for a variety of reasons. Farm a 3 workers and domestic servants j in private homes are not included ? under the provisions of the law because of the difficulty of cal- - "w culating the amounts of wages f ( Continued from Fax O f INJURED WORKERS ARE RECOVERING A Thanksgiving day explosffin at U.
