hat and said:
"Gentlemen, goodbye."
Looking neither to the left nor to
the right, Townsend walked to the
door of the committee room accom
panied by Sheridan Downey, his
counsel.
Chairman C. Jasper Bell, D Mo.
cried out to capltoi policemen to
halt the physician but he continnec
his progress through tne door unre
sisted amid the wild cheers of
Townsendites who crammed the
committee room.
Before taking his walk, Townsend
had read extracts from a brief
statement In which he charged the
committee with a deliberately "un
friendly attitude" toward himself
and the Townsend organisation.
"I deem It my duty," he said, "Ut
refuse to make any further appear
ance before your committee unless
under arrest.
The committee recessed after the
physician left the room and went
Into executive session to decide
what to do.
In a surprise move, investigators
presented testimony portraying Ed
ward J. Margett, California state
manager and national publicity di
rector of the Townsend pension
organization, as a one-time night
club owner and whiskey hijacker.
The testimony was presented by
Clarence A. Linn, San Francisco at
torney, who was called as a witness
when Dr. Francis E. Townsena,
pension plan founder, was delayed
In re-appearlng for the nouse com
mittee's afternoon session.
Linn's story dealt with the pur
ported activities of Margett on the
Pacific coast some 15 or 16 years ago.
Linn Identified Margett as a one
time owner of the Shamrock cafe,
San Francisco night spot in which
four persons were burned to death
several days ago In a fire started
aeetdentalljr by. a Torcn dancer.
Washington. May 31 () An as
sertion, immediately- denied, that
the Townsend old age pension w
ganlzatlon used the mails to de
fraud was made today before
hmiKP lnvestlsatintz committee.
James R. Sullivan, committee
counsel, declared that $11,490 was
raised for a "congressional fund
by an appeal to Townsend clubs
sent through the mails in the form
of "Townsend (trams."
"Did you make any effort to tor
these contributions," sunivan asxen
Dr. F. E, Townsend after reaainB
Townsendoram" appeal lor
funds.
No." Dr. Townsend replied, "we
were after contributions."
Did you do anything to stop Wi
use of the mails to defraud," snap
ncd Sullivan.
I don't concede it was use oi wie
malls to defraud," said Dr. Town
send.
Sullivan contended the "Town
send grams" contained "fraudulent
statements, -as a basis for the plea
for money.
Dr. Townsend, founder oi me
movement who was on the stand
for the third day. denied knowledge
of the appeal "until after it was
out." He added he did not believe
the mails "were used to defraud.
'Sullivan said that prior to the
"Townsendgram" appeal, the organ
Ization raised $23,490 to defray er.
nenaes of seven men brought to
Washington in January. 1935,
draft the McOroarty bill embodying
a form of the Townsend plan, ana
work for its passage.
Dr. Townsend disclaimed know
ledge of Sullivan's assertion that
only 81.804 of tne $23,490 was use"
before the "Townsendgram" appeal
was made for additional funds.
The witness explained he had lit
tle or nothing to do with the raising
of money and his province was the
"philosophical and economical" as
Dect of the movement.
He said Robert E. Clemen U, for
mer national secretary and
founder, and others in the business
office, handled the financial .end of
the rjroaram.
The "Townsendgram' appeal for
funds carried the name of Clements
and Charles U. Randall of Loa An
AUTOMOBILES
geles, chairman of the Townserd
national strategy committee. 1
Sullivan Introduced testimony tak-
by a sub-committee in California,
in which Randall said he signed the
original appeal for the "congress
ional fund" but denied he signed the
Townsendgram."
Randal), Sullivan said, testified he
had "nothing whatsoever to do with
the sending of the Townsendgram"
adding that "Randall claimed his
name was forged to those Tpwnsend-
grams. '
The "Townsendgrams," in addition
to an appeal -for money, reported
'several notable victories" for the
Townsend cause.
Asked about thesn victories, Dr,
Townsend said he "supposed what
1$ meant was that some congress
men had been approacned and were
cognizant of our plans."
The "Townsend grams" were dat
ed March 22, 1935.
Sullivan brought out that the ap
peal went to 5000 clubs and, with
urgings to "hurry." suggested a "quo
ta" of 15 cents a member. He read
number of letters from various
Townsend clubs acknowledging the
request for funds and noting en
closure of contributions
Sullivan contended the "congres
sional fund" had a balance of about
$21,000 when the Towsendgram ap
peal was made.
"How do you
know that?" Dr.
Townsend asked.
"We know It and have the rec
ords," Sullivan replied.
Dr, Townsend deniea the appeal
was discussed In the oresence of O.
Otto Moore, Denver, and other
Townsend leaders and that Moore
protested the appeal and said he
would prosecute those who made it.
Sullivan read Into the record tes
timony taken from Moore by a sub
committee In Los Angeles.
Moore testified he ielt the Town-
send organization In April, 1935, af
ter about six months' membership.
Representative Collim R cal.),
sub-committee member, objected
to the reading of Mtiove's testimony
on the ground it already was a part
of the record. Chalrmnn Bell over
ruled the objection and was sustain
ed by the committee.
Moore's testimony generally was
critical of the Townsend organiza
tion and its methods of operation.
Moore testified that of the orig
inal 123,490 raised for the congres
sional action committee of which he
was a member, only $2404.96 was
spent by the committee during four
months In Washtngtun.
He also told the committee, Sul
livan recited, that "at least 10,000"
was raised through the "Townsend
gram" appeal, in addition to the
23,499.
Moore also denied there were any
'notable victories" aj contended in
the "Townsendgrams" and added
the lobby committee met with "one
disappointment after another." He
estimated "between 12500 and M000
was raised in Colorado before I could
stop it,"
The Coloradoans testimony said
he protested to Clement and Dr.
Townsend against the appeal. He
quoted Clements as saying "We
don't give a damn about the old
people."
Moore testified that Mrs. w. w.
Marshall of Colorado Springs, mem
ber of the commlttet said "that Is
a terrible thing to say," and "cried
on Dr. Townsend's shoulder."
'That is untrue ana pure fabrics
Hon," Dr. Townsend said. "I am very.
positive the lady did not cry on my
shoulder."
Moore quoted Dr. Townsend as
saying "Well boys, we re going out
and raise a million and a hall dol
lars," but the doctor lisclalmed any
recollection of havlne said It.
After listening to Sullivan's read
ing for thirty minutes or more, Dr
Townsend stood up.
"Gentlemen, this is all more or
less soporific," he said
Shortly thereafter Bell recessed
