Young Legislator
many persons over sixty are now em
ployed. The first effect would be to with
draw 4.156,000 elderly persons from
their existing gainful employment.
Apply the economic effects of this
withdrawal upon a prosperous eco
nomic sytem, the economists say, and
you have the scholastic explanation
of the error of the Townsend way.
Only economists can explain that
In their classrooms. In fact, only
economists need to worry about that.

One of the biggest hits of any pear
promotional material gotten out by
the Oregon-Washington Pear Bureau
Is the leaflet. "How to Handle Late
Pears." recently published by the bu
reau. This Is a practical manual on
the physical handling of pears.
Jfot only Jobbers, brokers, chain
stores, and retailers, but many other
types of businesses have flooded the
bureau with requests for this man
ual, particularly transportation com
panies. Requests have come In from
Canada as well as this country.
A typlcl request reads, "This la one
of the commodities that we have
been looking for some lnformtion on
for some time, and one about which
we know the least. Therefore we
would be very grateful to you for
this Information."
The principal article In the manual
Is by Prof. Henry Hart man, horticul
turist for the Pear Bureau and Ore
gon State college. Since 1024, Prof.
Hartman has carried on Investigation
on pear harvesting, storage, trans
portation and storage diseases. Six
years of this period was spent In In
vestigation at terminal markets.
Members of the Pear Bureau are
listed in the leaflet a feature that is
being carried out In all the new bu
reau material, together with a state
ment that "membership Is restricted
to those firms and cooperative organ
izations which maintain their own
cold storage facilities, exercise con
trol of their fruit from tree to car
and whose label Is used only on fruit
packed under their supervision.'
The leading varieties of winter pears
are reproduced in their natural size
and color, and a map of Oregon and
Washington showing the pear districts
Is Included.

are one or two foremost economists
In the country who are honest.
But, so far, only two economists
who are sufficiently well-known here
to be recalled offhand by their
brother economists have written pub
licly in favor of the Townsend move
ment. It appears that both have re
ceived fees. This fact would indicate
that the boss-economist ' question
bolls down to the simple Issue of
whose boss (as Mr. Roosevelt says)
has the chicken-pox.
It Is rather deep stuff, but trust
worthy economists say the fallacious
economic reasoning of the Townsend
ites can be proved, if you take their
1029 base and follow It through. In
other words, to get the effect of the
plan, consider for example only that
