PAID OVER $400,000 TO MEMBERS AHocited To Matured Shares, Loans To Property Owners, and Re|Nirchasing of Shares; All Help To Revive Confidence In In¬ vestment Situation r« During the past fiscal year the Nazareth Building and Loan asso¬ ciation paid $412,383,26 to its mem- , bers in the form of earnings on their shares, retirement of matur- , ing shares, loans on security of their , homes, and for repurchase of their shares In cases where the share- ^ holders needed their funds before maturity. These flgures on the local, institutions operations were mad: public today by Charles W. K. Shafer, Secretary of the associa-, tion, I This $412,383 2C iUm was allocat¬ ed by the association as follow.s: $160,200 for matured shares of in¬ vestors $208,400 for loans lo properly owners for rcflnancing, remodeling, new construction, or lo complete a purchase of property, and $43,983,20 for repurchase of shares not ye: reaching maturity, "Two notable effects upon the economic situation of the communi¬ ty may be traced to this distribu- ' tion of cash and credit," said Mr, Shafer. "The earnings distributed as dividends as well as the matured [ shares retired and the unmatured shares repurchased havo all served to revive confldonce in the invest¬ ment situation and to decrease rapidly any remaining fears which may exist regarding Uie safe keep-' Ing of tho peoples savings these days. Nobody is ^olng to continue ' keeping his money in the safety de- | posit bo.x or the proverbial "sock when he sees an institution man- ' aged by tho responsible citizens of the cummuniiy paying a substanii.il, dividend on funds entrusted to it, and at the same time demonstrat¬ ing its soundness by continued safe¬ ty of the funds invested. "The effect of the funds disbursed in the form of loans does not need much elaboration. A pick-up in employment iu tjie building and allied trades Ls the natural result of every loan which we made for modernizing or repairing an old house in this community, and for constructing new residential pro- pertie,?. Where the funds were used to finance a real estate trans¬ fer the credit acted as a bolster to the i-eal estate market, and in each ca,->e where tlie funds were used to reflnance a formerly cxi.silng un- saliafactoy tyjae of mortgage by transferring it to the long-term, monthly repayment building and loan plan a more favorable finan¬ cial situation was created for the fainily /.. pi/,:ing ihem on an order¬ ly basis for liquidation of their debt. "No better basis for recovery in this community could be discovered than the returning confldence of inve,stors and the increasing avail¬ ability of credit of a normal variety ratlier than a government rescue variety, for the financing of resi¬ dential real estate. The past .six months experieiice in tlie Nazareth Building and Loan as.sociation jas- tity our belief that this community can onco more begin to count its economic bKssings and look for¬ ward to a .sub,-tantial and pro.sp?r- ou- development of its resources :i:ul business possibililie.s during the nex; few years," PRIilSIDeNT OF CE¬ DAR CREST COLLEGE TO SPEAK HERE president William F, Curtis, of Cedar Crest College will addre,ss th<-' Nazareth Womans Club on Monday, September 9th, at the Nazareth High School, giving an lllu.strated talk on "Photographs from an Am- ateurs Garden'.

SEPT. 8 Needed To Malie Amendment; AUTHORITY OF THE LEGISLATURE In considering the power of the legislature, one must al¬ ways keep in mind two fund.Tinental principles. The rule of interpretation for state constitutions gives the legislature all power not specifically denied it or reserved to the people. In contrast to that, is the second principle, that all powers which have, by prior constitutions or judicial decision, been declared beyond the realm of legislative authority shall continue to be denied to the legislature unless the new constitution, recogniz¬ ing these accumulated llmitation,s ¦ — removes them by definitely granting ! constitution should be read and those powers to the legislature, understood by the average man A concrete example will illustrate: ^'>o *'" ^^ '^^'^'^^ '« ^'^°'P^ '' a"^ The courts have held thai a graded income tax was beyond tlie power of Hnrve.st Home ser'.ices will be ob¬ served in the Bushkii; M E Church on Sunday, September Sth, with ser¬ vice in the morning and evening.

If the new constitution does not sijecifically grant to the legls- alure the power to levy .such tax, the old rule would continue It IS also well to bear in mind ha: tlie efficacy of some of the recommended changes largely de¬ pends upon the prompt action of the legi,->latun' in enacting the nec¬ e.ssary laws to put into operation a particular constitutional direction. In the same manner, it is entirely de.sirable that those things over which we do not want the legisla¬ ture to exercise authority should be definitely prohlbit«'d Authortty Sralterrd ! At present, the constitutional au¬ thority of the legislature i,< scattered throughout the document under a nuniber of difTerent cla.ssincatlons and under a number of dilTerent headings. It Is proposed that any new con- ,stltution to be adopted should, with regard to the legislature and its au¬ thority, adhere to these principled when draftiHi: 111 All the .sections relating to legl.slatlve authority should be itathered together In one article where they might be more re.idily -een In relation to earh other and A here the Krant,s or denlal.s of lUtlmrlty might be set forth with larity nnd simpllrlty A good lue under it There is no need in •he drafting of the contsitution for the niceties of technical dis¬ tinction which so delight the law¬ ver or Judge who revels in ab- -1 actions or the abstru.so difTer- enees between •Tweedledum" and Tweedledee. 1^1 The article on legislative aulhority should be drawn with die recognition to the three clas- .silieations within that field: (ai The field of prohibited legislative action or authority.
