For example. in 170 cities of over 25.000 population in 1938. detailed figures show that the value of property stolen. either by robbery. burglary. larceny. or theft. was over $28.000.000. Perhaps the greatest benefit ultimately and continuously to be derived from the plan of oldage security would be the fact that it would inspire a greater spirit of loyalty to our Government and our American institutions. No one. whether foreign born or native citizen. regardless of any organizations. political or otherwise. to which he may belong. would have any incentive to try to tear down institutions under a government such as ours. definitely providing him against the infirmities of declining years. when he is no longer able properly to provide the comforts of life. A citizen will not tear down the temple which shelters him. It would likewise be an incentive to youth. including the young married man. to pay the tax. in order that his old mother and father might be properly taken care of when they shall have reached the evening of life.
