FRESNO, Calf, Feb. 7.-Dr. Fran
els E. Townsend. advocate of pen
sions for ordinary elderly citizens,
today announced he was writing to
President Roosevelt, saying:
I'm view of the contemptuous
indifference of Congress to plead
ings of veterans of industry, and
service for the last seven years for
just a modest living pension to sus-
tain them in their old age, the re-
cent act of Congressman in voting
themselves a very liberal pension is,
in my opinion, the most contemptu-
Gus, calloused and sordid piece of
pork-barreling legislation it has ever
been my lot to encounter"

STORES MUST OBEY
 NEW OPENING RULE
Proper Steps to Be Taken Against Owners Refus-
 ing to Cooperate

Proper steps" will be taken against downtown stores which are refusing to conform to the general agreement to open for business at 9:30 rather than a. m. to make bus facilities available for war workers, Secretary Frank J. Green of the Chamber of Commerce said today.
 "The men and women working in war production plants are going to be transported to work, no matter what else happens" MT. Green said. "The demands now being made on stores and individuals are modest compared with what may be neces- sary later"
 The store schedule change, MT. Green said, was made with the ap- proval of the Public Utilities Com mission and the Office of Defense Transportation. Proceedings against stores which violate the opening hour agreement may be instituted through these agencies, he hinted.
 Merchants observing the 9:30 a.. m. opening hour have complained that several downtown stores are holding to the previous g a. m. open- ing hour. This, they say, may force them to return to the old schedule.
 Last month the opening hour for high schools was changed from 8 to 8:30 o'clock to free bus space for factory-bound workers.

 The president then explained that his brief statement had been carefully written out for him by the state department and it was impossible for him to say more at this time.
 Asked directly what this coup- try's policy would be if the gas re- ports from Europe prove authorita- tive, the president dismissed the in quiry as too "iffy."
