Whitley Hewitt in the semi-windup

new living scale bring them longer life
or would they indulge themselves in
ways that would shorten their Ca
reers? For many Of them the ease
brought by such pensions would come
too late. 1t might be argued that, for
the real purpose Of spreading happi-
ness, q 5000 q month pension should
be granted, not after sixty years Of age.
but between the ages Of twenty and
thirty. The hard grind Of poverty on
youth Is one OF the tragedies Of life.
Dr. Townsend regards his plan not
a. q pension plan. but as . measure
Of recovery. He believes that 1t would
not only remove 5000 900 persons from
jobs or the need Of jobs, but would
effect . turnover Of billions Of dollars
each month, creating more demand for
production, more employment. more
business and more. prosperity. The
plan would be financed by the imposi-
tion Of q two per cent sales tax on
every transfer Of property. whether 1t
be o house, an automobile or q
douehnut.
The feeling that old age should be
protected and men and women allowed
to 90 happily through their declining
years to their final rest is universal.
It Is that feeling, undoubtedly, rather
than any idea Of recovery, that has
given the Townsend plan its impetus.
Members Of Congress. indeed. have in
large numbers recently expressed their
interest in old-age pension plans.

Commentary on Justice.

In the middle of July. 1926, the
Nation was aroused by the murder
of young Don Mellett, editor of the
Canton, Ohio, Daily News. 1t was no
ordinary murder. Mellett, through
his newspaper, had been hammering
away at what seemed to him, and
to anybody who read his newspaper,
to be a link between the underworld
OF vice in Canton and the city police
The campaign had not attracted much
attention outside the City of Canton,
and in Canton itself there was an in
clination in many quarters to regard
it as newspaper stunt" which re-
fiected on the good name of the city.
Mellett was shot down In cold blood

for weeks had been made in big head

did not like the publicity.
But after long investigation the
