TOWNSEND PENSION
PROGRAM EXPLAINED
400 At Meeting Here Saturday
Hear How Old Age Pension
Plan Would Work

About 400 persons interested in an
idea which would give them 5000 a
month after reaching the age Of 90
attended a meeting at the city audi.
forum Saturday night to hear Dr.
Samuel M. Dick, dean OF the eco
nomic department Of Old Age Revolv-
ing Pensions. Ltd, Pasadena, Calf,
explain the proposal.
DR.. Dick was presented to the
audience by John B. Dundore, his
travelling companion and business
manager Of the organization, also Of
Pasadena, who was introduced by E.
NJ. Davis.
Sponsors Of the old age pension
proposal expect to introduce their
plan in the next session Of congress.
Known as the DR.. F. +. Townsend
plan, the proposal, as explained by
DR.. Dick here Saturday, Is as follows:
Have the national government en-
act legislation to the effect that all
citizens of the United States, man
or woman, over the age OF 90 years.
may retire on a pension Of 500 per
month on the following conditions:
"a that they engage In no further
labor, business or profession for gain:
az. that their past life Is free from
habitual criminality: 81, that they
take oath to, and actually do spend,
within the confines Of the United
States, the entire amount Of their
pension within 80 days after receiv-
ing.
"Have the national government
create the revolving fund by levying
a general sales tax; have the rate just
high enough to produce the amount
necessary to keep the old age revolv-
Ing pension fund adequate to pay
monthly pensions.
Have the act 50 drawn that such
sales tax can only be used for the
pension fund"
Advocants Of the legislation hope
to secure $4,000, 900 signatures before
submitting the program to congress.
DR.. Dick said that 100000 signers
already have been secured though &C.
tive promotion outside Of California
began only q week ago. A state or
ganization for securing signers In
North Dakota Is being planned.

new LABEL TO CURB

Phantom Stamp Self Destroy
ing Making Re-Uss by
Dealers impossible

A new phantom" destroying
beer stamp soon will make It's appear
ailce in North Dakota. s. A. Papke.
state regulatory department head, an
nounced Tuesday.
The new stamps will be distributed
to curb 'racketeering" in tax labels,
Papke said. Through issuance Of the
new stamp. reuse of beer stamps will
be impossible, he explained.
In four units, the new stamp will
be printed in amounts Of is cents
for an eighth barrel: 80 cents for q
quarter barrel; "a cents for half
barrel and 1928 cents for a barrel.
Backs Of the stamps will contain
no glue; each stamp must be affixed
with liquid glue by the distributor.
Attempts to remove the stamp, which
can be done only with steam, or
hot water, causes the word cancelled"
to appear on the stamp, while the
stamp itself then gradually dissolves
and falls apart.
Similar stamps are used in Is other
states, Papke said. In South Dakota,
az! increase Of Is per cent on tax
stamp revenue was shown after this
type was placed in use. he explained.
I'VE expect to see q sizeable increase
IL tax-stamp revenue through use Of
these stamps" Papke said. ''They
will bring into the state money now
lost to it by illegal and fraudulent re-
use Of present beer stamps. The new
stomp cannot be duplicated by ordin-
ary printing processes, which can be
done with the present stamp"
Papke has ordered $4,000 OF the
new stamps which will be placed in
circulation soon. He plans to call In
other stamps in the near future, as
soon as distribution plans have been
completed.
