BY DIR. FRANCIS E. TOWNSEND

The Townsend Plan is a proposed
national annuity life insurance Plan to
which all of the citizens will belong,
and to which all will contribute in
proportion to their spending power;
and from which all citizens may draw
a monthly annuity of $500 per month
after attaining the age of 60 years, if
they SO choose. 1t is proposed that the
money paid out to the annuitants by
the government shall not be withheld
from circulation by the party receiv-
ing it, but shall be spent within the
confines of the United States within 30
days for goods (made in the United
States), or for services; this to be OBJ
ligatory by federal statute.
1t is proposed that the money for
maintaining this national insurance
plan shall be raised through a univer-
sal sales or national transactions tax,
each financial transaction being re-
quired to contribute a small percent
age of the amount of the transaction to
the national annuity fund. 1t is be-
lieved by the Townsend proponents
that the enforced circulation of money
by the government via the hands OF
the old folks will vastly stimulate the
production of consumer goods to sup
ply the increased buying demand; that
in supplying this buying demand un-
employment will be abolished and that
with the going of unemployment will
go a large percentage of the induce
ment toward criminal activity.

ness. and he's pretty certain to answer
why Kemp Morgan, OF course"
Ask him why and he will tell you
It's because Kemp had more unusual
experiences than any other seeker
after BLACK golds ever did.
For instance there was the time
Kemp lost his best drill. He was
working In soft ground but he noticed
that the drill kept going slower and
slower the farther 1t went down. Pref
ty soon 1t stopped completely. When
Kemp tried to pull 1t out 1t WAS stuck
fast. Come to find out that he had
hit an alum mine and the hole had
shrunk up around the drill so tight
that even Kemp couldn't bulge 1t.
Then there was the time Texas

rig. But 1t didn't stop him-no SIR

brought In 22-inch gusher. Ii was
SO cold that the oil froze as Ii spurted
upward so there was a solid column OF
frigid oil. Kemp just took out his
knife, hacked 1t off In three-foot
lengths and shipped 1t to the refinery

That was In Texas but Kemp mad a

place In Ohio where they make solid
tires for trucks.
When the average driller brings In
"duster," he moves his rig away from
there pronto. But not Kemp Morgan.
He knew what tough time the Kan
sas farmers had digging postholes In
the summer when the ground was
baked hard. So whenever he'd strike
a dry hole, he'd just take his two
hands. pull 1t up four feet and two
inches at time and saw 1t Off. Then
he'd ship a carload of these lengths
across the state line where they al
ways found a market.

Rain washed away the railroads

At this moment, the grasshoppers ar

a last gesture, however he rushed out
among the Respondent grasshoppers,
sitting there In the dust, and planted
several sets OF the strongest and

To his surprise the onions matured
quickly. The moment their bulbs ap-
peared above ground the grasshoppers
pounced on them. ate ravenously and
