The mossback wiseacres say the plan is fan tastic, foolish, impossible. That’s what the mossbacks said when Noah was buil ding the ark. It’s what they said when the first Republic was started; they thought monarchy was the only sensible government. It’s what they said about the steam engine, the railroad, the steamboat, the airplane. It’s what they have said about every advance move the world has ever made, whether in art, science, government or politics. The Townsend Plan is not a whit more fan- tastic, foolish or impossible than the Magna Charta looked to old King John or the Declaration of Independence to George the Third and his Tory hench men. William Allen White of Kansas got started on his road to fame by caustic ridicule of the Populist party, and later boosted the most important principles of Populism. The Townsend movement can’t be stopped by ridicule. Neither can it be stopped by the age-old cry of “Im possible!” ■ ........... $1.65 SPUDS FLllIKEK'N Maple Bars, doz. - WHITE HOUSE F’OUR Every Sack Guaranteed 49’s $1.98 19c - FLl'IiKEK'H Assorted Cup Cakes, doz. 23c FLllIKEK'N Oat Drops - - 19c - I.ITH1A 19c Crullers I.1THIA Bread - - - 8c - ...... 42c Shortening 4 Del Monte Catsup - 14c - DelMonte Peas, No. 2 - 16c Del Monte Tid-Bit Pineapple 9c Del Monte Pineapple Juice - 9c Del Monte Peaches, No. 2| 19c Raisins 4 ~'D.....

In fact, as all an gles are studied and better undersood, reciprocity is being looked upon as a way out of the murky fogs that have so long caused business to grope. A busin ess magazine of national circulation re cently said: “The general effect of the agreement is beneficial. The depression and high tariffs reduced Canada import of our goods from $948,000,000 in 1929 to $302,000,000 in 1934, and our imports from Canada fell from $502,000,000 to $252,000,000.

THAT SALES TAX From all indications the proposea sales tax is going to “get the ax” by Or egon voters in the special election of January 31. It’s getting so all forms of taxes, steadily piling up, are being res ented by the victims, but the sales tax is specially odious to the big majority. Voters are not kidding themselves that taxes can be escaped, but they want the legislators and other officials whom they elect, to understand that there is a limit to patience and tolerance. Costs of conducting state, county and city gov ernments naturally increases as popu lation increases. But lately they have in creased at a staggering rate, regardless of ability to pay. There’s no use of an orgy of spend’ng. Every ultimate con sumer shoud remember that he is al ways the one who pays the tax, no mat ter in what form it is levied. «------------------------------------ By CLEM BRADSHAW Fancy Link Sausage the agreement seeks to restore the for mer trade. These agreemnts are the most powerful single blow that has been struck in any part of the world gainst the ruinous tariff walls of recent years.” ------------ •------------ SENATOR BORAH Old Guard standpatters of the G. O. P. are finding that Senator Borah of Idiho also knows how to stand gat on his lib eral principles. They tempted him with hints of eastern conservative support. His answer was: “They have views on inflation and I have another. What do they mean by inflation? I have never ad vocated anything except expansion of the currency on a sound gold reserve.” Then referring to the Patman bonus bill, Senator Borah said: “I advocated the bonus payment in new currency, when we had $9,500,000,000 in gold and $1,500,000,000 in silver and only $4,500,- 000,000 of currency in ciruclation. Had we put two billion dollars out for the bo nus we would have had six and a half billion dollars of currency with nine and a half billion dollars of gold. I cannot see any inflation in that.” Senator Bor ah further said that he favored ’’reflat ion” rather than “inflation,” and des cribed reflation as “enough currencv to stimulate business in view of the fact that bank credit has practically disap peared.” 1 -f VALLEY VIEW NOTES Mr. and Mrs. H.
