He pays 2 per cent on the purchase. The baker pays 3 per cent when he buys the flour. The consumer pays 3 per cent when he buys the bread. Buy Q theater ticket, Q railroad ticket, Q movie seat, Q share of stock these are transactions and would incur the 2 per cent tax.
 This is Q statement of the plan.
 Dr. Townsend's great argument for his plan is that 1t would end hard times. His explanation Is very simple. These 100000 old people with $l ,500, 100000 a month to spend, would have to spend 1t. The money would flow right back into business, increasing the purchasing power of the nation and stimulating every business.
 Imitation Isn't Involved
 The Townsendites insist that the plan will not create imitation. That is correct. No fresh purchasing power will be created, hence there will be no imitation. But at the same time they insist that fresh

Drys Show New Life

Improvement in business Is being experienced by the prohihitionists and the once familiar "Clipsheet" of the Methodist Board of Temper ance, Prohibition, and Public Morals suddenly Is again being published.
 Once one of the most celebrated vehicles of dry propaganda, the "Clipsheet" disappeared after re- peal, because people stopped con- tributing.
 Now the money has begun to trickle in again, however, and the board has decided 1t can afford to resume publication-but on c monthly basis, instead of weekly as of yore.
 The first new number indicates that dry strategy now is to battle for temperance, rather than abolition of liquor, which even many drys view as hopeless, for the time being.
 The "Clipsheet" presents 0 long review of drinking at football games, graphically and satirically describing the practice, surveying conditions at various universities, and recommending steps toward remedy.
 Football game drinking has proved conclusively, one learns, that Q drunken woman can make Q bigger fool of herself than any drunken man."
 Also, spectators do more of the drinking than students and the problem Is more serious in the east than elsewhere.
 It is also reported that liquor

An Ingenious Theory

One physician in Washington is sure he knows why Supreme Court Justice McReynolds has been un- precedentedly curt in his question: ing of government lawyers ct this term.
 This physician, like McReynolds and many others who had been quartered In the old Rochambeau apartments for years, was sore when the government, taking over the building in Its ceaseless quest for office space, ordered everyone out on 90 days notice.
 He predicted at Che time that McReynolds would be especially tough this winter.
 Furthermore, the doctor confides that the dentist of Chief Justice Hughes was also one of the Roch- smbeau victims and he knows Hughes was given an earful about the outrageous eviction and is sur- prised that Hughes hasn't also been sterner toward New Deal attorneys lately.

SOME GOOD ADVICE

Citizens warned to beware of strangers who come
to their doors and preense another seek to be
admitted Such people very often thieves posing as
saesmen solicitors or inspectors They should never be
permitted to enter your home until they are identified
through reliable credentials such people are the author
lied representatives OF reliable business firms they are al
ways ready and able to Identify themselves they
not furnish proper Identification you should refuse to deal
with them in any way
Never be misled by smooth-tongued statesmen nor by
the type who possess engaging personality and have
highly polished The ceverest crook possesses
these qualifications. Never advance cash on the
purchase of merchandise which for future delivery until
the identity of the person with whom you are dealing has
been established beyond all doubt Never offer your per-
sona check in payment for merchandise bought from sales
people who to your door. AS has so often hap
pened personal checks may be altered and cashed for
larger amounts.
Highpressure free gift statesmen should be avoided
their merchandise is of high standard the offering of
free gifts is not necessary Our people need be the
victims of sales schemes petty thieves if they will be
their guard and just enough suspicious of every strange
to stay their guard and constantly bear in
mind the truthfuness of the old saying that You can't
get something for nothing"

we spend our money for gas and go out motoring on
Sunday and everybody else buying gas and spending
money and having what appears to be good time Every

on shedding tears for the common man, and predicting
dire calames if this that candidate isn't elected All
which leaves the average voter with two paramount
questions he would like to have answered One is, who
are the people?" and the other is How long will
