WILL EXPLAIN
DIR. TOWNSEND
PLAN TONIGHT

Persons interested In the Town
send plan for old age revolving pen
sions, are invited to attend the open
meeting to be held tonight at 8 o.
clock in the city park, at which w.
F. Dutton, organizer for San Diego
and Imperial counties, will explain
the details Of the plan.
Thousands of Californians have
become interested in the Townsend
plan and are signing petitions to ask
congress to approve it, according to
Dutton, and the plans supporters
are growing in number each day.
The originator of the plan is DR..
B. F. Townsend, of Long Beach,
and was connected with that city's
health department for several years.
During this time he had ample op-
portunity to study the misery of
old and unfortunate persons de-
peding upon relatives or public
charity for their subsistence, Dutton
explains. This led him to study of
the matter and resulted in his old
age revolving pension fund.
Briefly the plan provides for pay
ment of 5000 per month to each per-
son reaching the age of 60, who has
no criminal record, agrees to spend
the money within 80 days of recei,C
and in the United States. and who
agrees not to engage in any gain
full occupation. Money for the pen
sions would be raised by general
sales tax.
Headquarters for the Townsend
plan have been opened at SAT Main
street and persons desiring addi-
tional information are invited to
call there.

Here's How Simple, Clean

Works

You go to any Goodyear dealer and

gives you our guarantee. If for any
reason that tire does not deliver a full

and get your adjustment, paying only
for the months of service actually re-
ceived. That means new tire at one
twelfth the regular price il, the tire
you buy runs only a month"; new
tire at one-sixth the regular price if
the first tire runs two months-A new
tire at half-price if the first tire runs
six months. Goodyear tires are so
serviceable you'll probably never need
to fall back on this guarantee, but if

It's no problem for Goodyear to offer this guar

1t may not be so easy for others to make this

No manufacturer can repair

part:
We see nothing in Ralph Pulitzer's
record as publisher of the one-time
New York World to justify a belief
that he will have the employees In

trary his record in the closing g-out OF

his letter of resignation recalls that
he set this forth as a possible obJec-

To this, in his letter of appoint
ment, johnson replied:
In view Of your own record and
the long and liberal record of your
