he warned.
Warns Followers
DR.. Townsend warned his fol-
lowers to prepare for storm OF
opposition from "those in power"
"The old parties will cling like
death to their privileges" he said,
"but I believe our plan will be
adopted soon."
The revolving pension plan is
net a cure-all but a vital step,
he said, to end this internal de.
preston" Millions of unemployed,
thrown out of WORK by the age of
machines, must be provided for
if the nation is to survive, he con-
tended.
Briefly, DR.. Townsend outlined
his plan for the government to
pay every citizen over so 5000 a
month pension with the require
ment that all the money be spent.
What this nation needs is buy
ers," he maintained. Our mach
ines produce a super-abundance Of
commodities. It is vital that a mar
ket be found. The trouble lies in
lack of business, net lack of prod
ucts.
What class better deserves to
be taken out of industry to make
room for the millions of jobless
than the aged? The elderly do
not deserve to face the ignominy
of helplessness and dependence"
With reduction of available la
Dor, workers will be in a position
to demand-and receive-a proper
standard of living, DR.. Townsend
continued.
In outlining his financing pro-
gram, DR.. Townsend advocated a
two per cent sales tax system
through the use of stamps, to be
bought at local postoffices. Thus,
he pointed out, costly collection
system would be unnecessary.
Every legal transaction, he de-
clared, should be taxed
ToWnsendites from all over the
valley, and even from other states,
damned the school auditorium to
hear their leader. The crowd over
flowed into the corridors where ex-
ira chairs were provided. A public
address system carried DR.. Town
sends voice to those outside.
Many of the audience stood

H M Minor charged with driving

rested for being drunk. He was re-
leased to pay the fine.
In spite of Manuel Favela's plea
of not guilty, Judge Nuffer found
him guilty OF being drunk and dis
turbing the peace. He received a
five day Jail sentence which he now
is serving.
Because the complaining witness
asked that the case be dismissed,

Certainly. We will retire the
least fit. There will be room for
everyone to work. Credit balance
will be taken out of the hands of
the banks and put into the hands of
the government, where it belongs.
There will be no more extremes, no
sky high booms or disastrous de-
pressions. Prices may go up, but so
will wages"
DR.. Townsend went on to explain
the details of his plan, sincerity
evident in every tone. When he was
done, he turned to waiting Town
sendites from the valley, further to
discuss the Townsend program, and
plans for the coming campaign. 1t
was evident that DR.. Townsend and
the Townsend plan are one and the

Condemnation of Tongues

reverted to the speech of his an

How would he ever understand the
woman whose husband probably
knows the exact yodel to use be-

The color scheme would fit right

it was on a woman, SO it might have
looked like a whole hat to Il fashion
expert-before the splash Of fash
ionable blue and black in the far
corner of the auditorium caught
his eye. She was pretty, too.
No Passing Scheme
There was every indication that
the Townsend plan is no fly-by-
night scheme. The crowd was about
evenly divided between six and
sixty. If all those youngsters grow
up to vote the straight Townsend
ticket, they'll only need one ballot
and one stamp in the polling places
