A New Pension Idea
ANEW cure-all for our economic ills hai been found. The
discoverer, appropriately enough, ia a physician Dr. F. E.
Townsend, who for the paat few yean hag been caring for the
indigent sick in Long Beach, California.
Dr. Townsend's scheme ia known ai the "Old Age Revolving
Pensions" plan, and according to report it will be presented to
the next session of the congress, with several hundred thousand
signatures.
President Roosevelt has endorsed the principle of old age
pensions. He has not, as yet, endorsed this particular proposal.
Supporters of the plan however are confident he will. We are
inclined to doubt that, for the president is opposed to a national
sales tax, and it is proposed to finance this plan in that way.
see
However, the proposal is so ingenuous and unusual, it de
serves comment if for no other reason than to show along what
lines some of our amateur ecoaomists are thinking these days.
Briefly the idea is this:
Dr. Townsend would retire all men and women in thia coun
try at the age of 60, on a pension of $200 per month. A married
couple at or above that age, for example, would receive $400
per month.
In return for thia generous gratuity, the Individuals would
agree to send ALL that amount, within the thirty days following
its receipt. They would also agree to work no more just enjoy
themselves, as they wished, provided they did not travel abroad
or engage in GAINFUL occupations at home. Only criminals
convicted felons would be IXeligible to receive this golden
manna.
IT is estimated approximately 8,000,000 people in this country

Uncle Sam .about $1,000,000,000 per month, or approximately
$20,000,000,000 a year I
And this amount could be raised so the prospectus says,
by a sales tax not exceeding 10, at the source that is to say
an excise tax on manufacturers.
esse
TTALK about stimulating purchasing powerl This "FORCED"
draft on purchases would put nearly two billion dollars a
MONTH into the channels of retail trade 1 There would be no
way out. That amount would have to be spent every 30 days.
And as criminals are not eligible it would of course cure the
crime wave. (With $200 a month assured at the tender age of
60, what potential Al Capone would sacrifice that income, for
the hazardous occupation of say
Unemployment t There would

We quote further, from the prospectus:
"This plsn of Old Ags Revolving Pensions Interferes in no
way with our present form of government, profit system of busi
ness or change of specie In our economic set up. It Is a slmpla
American plan dedicated to the cause of prosperity and the
abolition of poverty. . , , Humanity will be forever relieved from
ths fear of destitution and want. The seeming need for sharp
practices and greedy accumulation will disappear... Benevolence
and kindly consideration of others will displace suspicion and
avarice, brotherly love and tolerance will blossom Into full flower
and the genial sun of human happiness, will dissipate the dark
clouds of distrust and gloom and despair."
In short there, made to order, for this harassed and per
plexed human race is another Utopia. The only fly in the oint
ment, is Dr. Townsend 's Utopia isn't the first one; nor will it
be the last. Ever since Man emerged from the jungle, he has
been building a better world in the field of the imagination, but
somehow when tested by experience, these "Heavens built by
human hands" have failed to click. Many have been tried.
Utopian colonies have been established, so have idealistic Brook-
field Farms, and Artists' retreats
worked.
We don't believe Dr. Townsend's scheme would, ai least not
as he imagines, for that nuisance factor that pesky imponder
able known as human nature always interferes.
However, the plan is worth study and consideration, and
perhaps who knows t it may contain somewhere within it, the
answer to the forgotten man's prayer.
"IITE must leave the rmuw:? cf expert analysis, however, to
" the brain trusters and the economists.
The only obvious flaws wo can detect are two: first the
$20,000,000,000 a year, with which to super-charge the purchas
ing power, would not be paid by the manufacturers hut by the
people; and, second, the people, under 60, who would not be
DIRECTLY benefitted by this generous "dole'', have enough
difficulty in meeting their monthly bills, and taxes, ns it is!
It Should Be Done
""RATER LAKE TARK should really be an all-year-round
resort, a summer resort in summer; a winter resort or at
least a recreational pniut in winter. All that is needed to
achieve such an end, we are told, is keeping the highway open.
Hut this, of course, requires money. And with the cut in the
current budget for rond maintenance, from $7300 to $4600, no
winter road clearing in lOXi, will be possible.
In the opinion of the Mail Tribune this is false economy.
With so many millions being spent toward non-constructive
ends, it would seem that a paltry two or thre thousand might

Uncle Sam's credit, dangerously.
In fact we regard winter sports at Crater Lake, as sufficient

A BUSINESS WOMAN GOES FLABBY.

Now that's an admirable way to be
gin letter. I'll
bet aha la a good
business woman.
It would take
many women half
a page to tell as
much. '
For years I
wore corsets,
but for the last
two or threfl a
corse lette.
Now I find
my abdominal
muscles are be
coming flabby. I wonder It I
should try to get a corset to cor
rect this defect or could you give
me some girth control exercises
which might help. Ia It possible
a person's organs may slip down

What la a corselette? Old Dr. Webs
ter tells all about corsets and corse
lets, but washes his hands of It at
that point. I gather that a cor
selette la a set of stays of the vintage
of 24 or later. It was about '24 that
they began parking corsets, wasn't It?
But no fooling. We are anxious to
save the lady from the humiliation
of resuming the wearing of armor.
By following the advice hereinafter
given, any gtrl or woman In good
health can discard all corsets or braceB
or stays by any other name and en-
Joy better comfort, better health and
a better appearance.
First, it Is always a mistake for a
girl to begin wearing any support,
brace, arch, prop, splint, binder, belt
or corset. Why do girls begin wearing
such things? First because women
always have worn 'em, second because
the agent or saleswoman assures 'em
they look so much better In the latest
model of armor, third because being
credulous creatures they still 'believe
the wearing of some such garment
or appliance restrains or molds the
form to the correct standard, and in
deed they spend millions annually
for education that teaches Just that.
With fair physical training, which
Is part of the schooling of any girl
but which Is pretty largely Ignored In
the present educational program, a
woman's own muscles will support her
better than any artificial contrivance
can and Insure her a more graceful
appearance, too.
If a woman can afford daily walk

dally, that Is the beat of all exercises.

even golf Is better than Just sitting
or riding or driving, but walking is
the most valuable dally physical train.

I am trying Blaud's pills for ane

the right kind . . . J, R.
Answer A properly made pill of
ferrous carbonate should not be hard
at all. It should be freshly made.
The medicine changes and loses Its
its value on standing any length of
time. Probably a solution of iron is
better for simple anemia. Send 10
cents (coin) and stamped envelope
bearing your address, for the booklet
"Blood and Health," which gives di
rections for preparing a good Iron
solution and tells how to take It.
Dissolve one ounce of iron-ammonium
citrate in four ounces water. Spoon
ful after food three times a day. Take
It in water or any sweetened or fruit
flavored beverages.
Minor Rupture.
I applied for a position and was ex

small rupture on each side. He said
I must have this cured by operation

cure as surgery. In such a case, and
will not Interfere with your ordinary
work? Your letter does not carry a
