In 1900 the proportion was nine workers to one oldster; in 1920 it was eight to one; in 1930, seven to one; in 1940, six to one; by 1950, five to one. In another ten years, under current population trends, there will be approximately four people at work for every person 65 or over.

He was not a violent man, but as he descended the back stairs there was a grimness about his mouth. Roy emerged into the alley and headed for a high board fence, from behind w'hich came the measured whistle. He went through a door in the fence and stopped short A voice said: Hi, kid! Suspended from a peg In the fence was a cage and in the cage was a parrot As Roy stared at it the parrot emitted a shrill, piercing whistle. Roy was in the act of opening the cage door when someone shrieked. He turned to see a girl with red hair and blazing brown eyes rushing at him. Dont you dare touch that cage! Who are you?

I am told the opposition to statehood has grown some, since I was in the islands, and such opposition as exists is fathered, not alone by The Advertiser, but also by the army, especially the intelligence service of the army. It Is fearful that statehood would affect the armys privileges and practices. Such objections as are back of any opposition is not worthy of consideration on the part of congress. The islands are fully entitled to being made a real part of the United States. It has been a step child for an overly long period. To longer continue it on a territorial basis Is unfair. Give it a chance to rule itself and to enjoy the advantages of statehood, regardless of petty objections.
