TOWNSEND PLAN
DRAWS ATTACK
OF Ex-SPONSOR
WeekIy'S Profits Collected
by Private Individual,
Is Assertion.

J. Wilfred Corr, who formerly was
an organizer for the Townsend Old
Age Revolving Pension plan, said
here today that the sale Of Town
send publications is for profit to a
private individual.
DR.. Francis Townsend, author Of
the plan. will speak in indianapolis
Sunday.
Mr.. Corr. who said he had organ
lied the first Townsend Club IN
Pasadena. Cal, and who SubSe-
quently organized them in 26 states.
said that during his missionary trip
for the Townsend group he and Dr..
Samuel Dick had published and sold
booklets of DR.. Dicks addresses on
the plan and had used the profit to
pay their expenses.
Dismissed From Post
Even this minor encroaching on
the sales of the Townsend publ
cations was resisted by the national
headquarters. he said, and finally
ne ana LII. OlCh N6AC AAAoAAAASSONt, PAS-
sumably for this reason.
Mr. Corr added:
"As stated in a recent editorial IN
the Boston Herald. DR.. Townsend Is
simply an honest dreamer who
speaks with the courage of igno-
rance.
One thing I seriously object to IS
the private ownership for private
profit of the Townsend Weekly, net
profit Of which is estimated at be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 a week.
Charges Single Ownership
1T is reliably reported to my salts
faction that this publication is
owned principally by Robert Earl
Clements, national secretary and
So-called co-founder of the Town
send plan.
IF altruism predominated in the
minds and activities Of the prin-
cipals at the national headquarters
of the Townsend Plan, it seems to
me that the Townsend Weekly would
be owned and published by Old-Age
Revolving Pension, Ltd, a nom
profit California corporation, and
any profit accruing therefrom would
be used to advance their cause" he
said.

GERMAN GIRLS
TRAIN FOR WAR

young women IN Germany
are being trained for war"
This statement was made here
today by Madame Sonia Brant-
ing, daughter of the late prime
minister of Sweden, who bases
her assertion on observations
made when in Berlin last August
as a delegate to the Penal Con-
ference.
Speaking on conditions in Nazi
Germany, Madame Branting told
how the young women are sent
to farms and taught to dig
trenches and to carry heavy
weights.
She added, however, that there
is a growing feeling Of diStaste
for this sort of training, but that,
in the case Of those women on the
Government dole, such manual
labor is compulsory.
Nine. Branting is a domestic
moderator, equivalent to a judge
in the United States, in the
Swedish courts and is one Of the
leading feminiStS in the world.
She is on a tour Of this country
to make a series of addresses. At

BRITAIN CALLS
NAVAL PARLEY
FOR DEC. !
5-PoWer Session Will
Include u. S., Italy,

LONDON, Oct. "a 0N.S).
Great Britain today called q five
power naval conference to meet
in London, December 2, and sent
invitations to the United States,
Japan, France and Italy.
The British dominions also will
be able to be represented if they
so desire.
The United States today pre-
pared to attend what Is expected
to be nothing more than a mock"
naval conference in London early
in December.
Great Britain'S plan to convene.
the conference on December 2
or 3 is satisfactory to this Gov.
ernment, and London will be so
advised as soon as a formal in
vitation is received here.
The meeting of the naval pow
ers' representatives in London
will be described officially as a
general naval conference in &C.
cordance with the provisions of
existing naval treaties. However,
it is expected to accomplish moth
ing more than setting the date
for another general conference
next year.
HOpeIessneSs Conceded
With Britain's naval forces
maSsed in the Mediterranean and
uncertainty still prevailing over
what action the League Of Ma
tions may take to check Italian
conquest of Ethiopia, it is consid-
cred hopeless to expect any tan
gible achievements in the way Of
naval disarmament or even limita-
ton before the end of this year.
In fact, it was considered not
unlikely that Britain will serve
notice at the conference of her de-
sire for a bigger navy.

Italy to Mint
ThaIerS for
Ethiopia

VIENNA, Oct. 24.-Despite re-
peated official denialS. it Is
learned on excellent authority
that the Vienna mint sold secretly
four weeks ago to the Italians a
die-stamping machine for produc-
ton Of Maria Theresa thalers,
which Vienna has for hundreds
Of years minted for Ethiopia.
The machine was hastily taken
to Italy. but before its sale a large
quantity Of five-lire pieces was
brought from Rome to Vienna
and recoined as Ethiopian Maria
Theresa thalers, which were
handed over to italy.
Italy already possesses two ma
chimes capable Of striking such
coins, but Ethiopians reject thai
ers produced from these old ma
chimes. as they don't bear the
Vienna mint's sign, with which
EthiopianS are well acquainted.
