SOCIAL SECURITY SOMEWHERE AHEAD

Few theories of government have received the meas
ure support that being accorded the Townsend Old
Age Pension plan. The that idea utopian
should receive such general acceptance due largely to
the fact that presented to the country just at the
time that it There has been time in the his
tory of the country when people, especially those nearing
the sixty mark have felt less of their future than
they do today Many of them have the savings of
life time swept away in brief space Of time in spite of
everything they could do This has occurred many

1t is with regret that we note Mrs. Greenway's am

POTPOURRI
(By Polk Daniels)

Listen a little while to the man
who boasts that he always says
what he thinks and you will dis
cover he is not much of thinker.
Every candid man must admit
that he has declined or at least
headed off or run away from pro-
posals Of marriage.
If you don't like her, it is hard
for you to acknowledge that she
is a good singer.
Some one suggests that op-to-
mism is all right in it's way, but
hop-to-it-ism brings home h e
bacon.

WHAT WE THINK
(By Frank Dixon)

| note that President Roosevelt
in seeking new sources of revenue
offers the suggestion to Congress
that the surplus earnings Of cor
porations that are not distributed
as dividends be taxed about 35 per
cent and that the exemption now
permitted on income received in
the shape of dividends by stock
holder in a corporation be done
away with.

The new tax proposal, if it had
been in force at that time, would
not only have made the $140,000,-
900 subject to income tax but the
