J His name should be known the nation n nver over ver for he is a shining example one man who has not been spoiled by the compassion compassion com corn passion of a generous government In 1935 Hohner was hard hit by the depression depression depres depres- sion Zion and felt compelled to call upon Harry Hopkins Hopkins' Hopkins Hopkins' Hop Hop- kins' kins for help Since then he has not needed help but he never could forget that he had had help when he needed it and so the theother other day he set out to square square the account He had at the time time and and no no job But Buthe Buthe Buthe he went down to a postoffice and bought a money money order for and then mailed it to Hopkins My money was getting so low that if I hadn't paid it when I did I might have had no money to pay he explained The government government govern govern- ment did its best to me and I wanted to do ray my best to the government What this all aU adds tip lip p to is that it is a great pity that many more relief clients who have g got t back on their feet haven't heeded when conscience whispered to them It doesn't seem quite possible that Hohner and the very few others who have expressed their gratitude to toUncle toUncle toUncle Uncle Sam in hi similar fashion are the only ones 4 who have been put back on thc the road to well- well being Those chiselers and cheats whom the federal government and the states have been forced to take into the courts f for r fraudulently getting on relief rolls and pension lists ought to flush about t the ears as they read about ca cases es like
