Engele Back From Chicago Townsender Predicts Election Results “Nothing can stop ns from electing the next congress and the next president of the United States,” was the enthusiastic ver dict of Walter Kngele, junior in German, who returned to the cam pus Saturday from the Townsend convention held in Chicago, Octo ber 24 to 27, which he attended as a delegate from the Montavilla Townsend club in Portland. Scoffing at rumors of dissension in the ranks of the old age revolv ing pensions plan supporters, En gele emphasized the invitation sent out to six ex-Townsendites who accused the leaders of the movement of absconding with a portion of the funds. Offer Rejected The Townsend organization promised to pay all the expenses of these men if they would appear before the delegates and support their accusations. It is significant that not one of them accepted,” Engele stated. Among the 6000 Townsend club members gathered at the Stevens hotel in Chicago, were ladies of over GO years who had hitch-hiked from California, and a man who came from Alaska to attend the convention. "If the present administration does not incorporate the Townsend plan in its policy by January of next year,” said Engele, “our lead er and his secretary, Robert Cle ments will decide who the Town send organization will support for the presidential election of 1936.” Calendar (Continued from Vatje One) Prose and poetry group of Phil omelete wil! meet at 4 today to go through the Murray-Warner mu seum.

This heap of charred wreckage was thoroughly examined by federal and New York state author ities, investigating the crash of the 20-passenger craft in which Ruth Nichols, famed aviatrix, was crit ically iniured and her piiot, Harry Huhlitz, killed. Four passengers, all honeymooners, were slightly burned. A down draft is believed to have caused the huge ship to crash into a tree on a farm near Troy, New York.

In a single day people from ten different states visited our Chesterfield factories. 8,200 visitors during the past year saw Chesterfields made. to Start With, we take tobacco from our own Southland — mild ripe tobacco with lots of natural flavor but no harshness or bitterness. THEN AS A SECOND STEP— We blend this home-grown tobacco with spicy, aromatic Turkish to baccos from across the seas. These Turkish tobaccos, you may know, have a flavor and fragrance entirely different from our own. AS A THIRD STEP — These tobaccos are cross - blended — welded together —the best way we’ve found to get a more pleasing flavor and a better taste in a cigarette.
