Only a few of the social uses of
the horse may be mentioned in
this space. That youthful gal
liant whose parents were affluent
enough to provide him with a good
trotter and rubber-tired runa-
bout enjoyed a favored social
status, and an undue share of the
smiles of the Wasp-waisted, balloon
sleeved charmers of the time. May
be the one horsepower runabout
yielded as much romantic mileage
as the 80 HIP Buick now does.
Those waSp-WaistS of the long-gone
yester-year could have, at cor
responding age, competed on equal
terms with their more sensibly-at-
tired granddaughter if lined up
beside them in a Miss America
type contest, bathing suit, city la
bel, and all. The degree of allure
might have to be decided by the
toss of a coin.

established tradition among the

Gazing backward through the
miSts of time those days seem story

long memories see other things be-

call that life was much more rug
ged and toilsome; it lacked many
conveniences and comforts he now
enjoys. All was not happy dancing
on the village green and merry
singing of hey-nonny-nonny.
Doubtless every sentimental and

turn to that Golden Age in every

want to leave his" rheumatism

worked closely with the Roosevelt
brothers. James and Franklin. The
combination succeeded in arousing
a good deal of animosity in the
South. This has somewhat abated
but still exists and Mr.. Humphrey
is not a favOrite in that section. Nor
will his general prestige and power
be enhanced by the revelation in
the Townsend National Weekly
that he is one of its favorites. Not
much has been heard of the Town

who think that its adherents have

mistaken. The Townsend National

GAME OF

Siqnificant Sans

Significant Signs
Some significant signs Of the kind
of fiscal policy with which the coun-
try would be afflicted should the
Democrats regain control Of the
Government in 1856 have recently
been given. WGen really faced it
is difficult to see how the nation,
concededly overburdened with debt
and struggling TO keep precari-
Gus balance, could survive.
For example, we now have Sena-
tor Paul Douglas of Illinois, close
friend of Mr. 'Adlai Stevenson and
a self-confessed economist, out in
the open for direct subsidy pay
mentS from the Federal Treasury
for farmers. The idea is to have
the Government pay the farmer di-
rectly so as to hold his income
steady at 80 percent parity. Mr..
Douglas seems not to care whether
a rigid price support is adopted or
the flexible price system as advo-
Gated by Agricultural Secretary
Benson is adopted. All he wants is
for the farmers income to be held
up to the 80 percent level by the
United States Treasury
1t is not easy to conceive more
socialistic scheme than this. 1t is as
impossible to estimate its ultimate
cost as it is to predict the damage
such a precedent can do. The real
ly appalling thing, of course, is that
such a scheme should be seriously
proposed by one of our more liter
ate statesman and that this liter
ate statesmen should rank so high
as an adviser and friend of the So
called front runner" among the
Democratic aspirants for the presi-
dency. There is no obvious limit to
the expense of the Douglas plan
and there is no way of being sure
of benign results. All one knows
is that it is to some degree based
on the discredited Brannan plan
of the Truman regime which never
was approved by Congress
But there is even more distress
ing news-or at least some think
so-about the Stevenson advisory
group than that Senator Douglas
is one of them. We we're told last
week by one of the more important
national weeklies United States
News and World Report that re-
Gently Senator Hubert Humphrey,
of Minnesota, has become one OF
Mr.. Stevenson's closest counselors
and friends. Mr. Humphrey is now
serving his second term as Senator
from Minnesota. During his first
six wears he established a record
for voIubility that eclipsed that of
any other member of the Senate.
He spoke longer and more often
than any other senator, and he soon
won recognition as one of the lead
ing liberals" in the Senate.
At the last Democratic ConVen-
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1956-01-26


We are further informed by the
Townsend National Weekly that so
far this session PAT bills have been
introduced or cosponsored to eX-
tend or expand the social security
system along Townsend approved
lines. According to the National
Weekly Senator Humphrey per-
sonally sponsored eleven of these
proposals while Representative
Roosevelt introduced only five.
Thus Senator Humphrey stands out
as the leader of all members of
Congress approved by the Town
send organization. The original
Townsend Plan was to provide a
Federal pension for every citizen
over IS years old In 1886 both
Franklin d. Roosevelt and his OPP
ponent for the presidency, Alfred
M. Landon, declined invitations to
attend the Townsend national con-
vention. AS the New Deal de-
veloped, the Townsend Plan was
to some extent modified. However,
its national organ indicates the
movement is still vigorous and the
manner in which it plays up Sena-
tor Humphrey is particularly worth
noting in view of the fact that
Senator Humphrey is now one of
Mr.. Stevensons closest friends,
that Mr.. Stevenson is preparing to
enter the Minnesota primaries with
his support and that Senator Rich
ard Russell, of Georgia, has urged
his party to nominate a "centerist'
for" President, describing Mr.. Ste
venson as too 'leftish." There is
certainly some food for thought in
this situation.
