Especially Is he at outs with R. Clements, co-organlier and secretary of the Townsend movement and Key figure In the publication of the Townsend Weekly, the official organ of the Townsend movement. . Double-Barreled Feud. Monaghan make no secret of his feud with Clements and the reason for It. It's political and personal. The youthful representative, who will reach his 30th year on Marcn J(, wants to go to tne United States senate. Senator Murray, who suc ceeded the late Tom Walsh, Is up for reelection this year and Mona ghan Is anxious for his seat. He claims he has the blessing of Dr. Townsend, but thst for some reason the Townsend Weekly refuses to come to hi support. More than that. Monaghan charges, "an at tempt ha been made to give the Impression thst my csndldscy for the senate would be harmful to the Townsend cause." The atory Is told that Monaghan confronted Clements with such charges at a meeting of Townsend supporters In congress at a private meeting one night In the office of Representative Connery of Massa chusetts. Clements Is reported tb have told Monaghan flatly that "It might Interest you to know we will accept a paid advertisement from your opponent." I-ubllrlly for Scoffers. .

"How do these men." he demands of Clements, "some of whom have termed the plan 'visionary' and 'great Illusions' merit publicity In your columns. I challenge you to Justify your actions In thst those member of the house who so loy ally and fearlessly took ' the Jeer, the Jibe and sneers now are being tossed to the oblivion of obscurity, and In many Instances being shused." He has asked Bell of Missouri, chairman of the Investigating com mittee, to call Clements as one ot the first witnesses. Although not a member of the committee, he has promised to be on deck when Clements appears. placeWillTschool walkout is averted PLACKTWlXUt. Calif., March 8 fAP) rrtnfipii, B. K.

The Legion waa organised that veterans of the war might continue to give the service to their community that they gave to their country. Politics and politicians have no standing in the American Legion. Membership in the American Legion cannot be measured in dollars and oents. It can only b measured in the service of Legionnaire provides hi community and fellow man. Tne Legion la not militaristic. It believes In an adequate defense. A universal draft act that will call sons of mil lionaires as well as the poor man to the colors In time of need; to prevent profiteering. W ask nothing more.

FULL FLAVOR AT ANY STRENGTH THESE FACTS ABOUT BRAN HAVE BEEN PROVED BY TESTS Supplies Gently Acting"BulkM to Aid Regular Habits Now and then. In talking with your friends, the subject of bran haa come up. So that real facta might replace unsupported opinions, the Kellogg Company has aided for Borne years research in leading nutrition laboratories. Studies made on a group of healthy women showed that two tablespoonfuls of bran daily con tinued to relieve constipation over a period of months. How different from cathartics where dosage often must be increased. Another series of testa on men in. dicated that, with some people, the "bulk" in bran was much more effective than that found in fruits and vegetables. Further tests showed that Kel. logg's All-Bran provided vitamin B and iron as well as "bulk." This "bulk" absorbs moisture, and gently exercises and cleanses the system the rt'jfW way to correct constipation. Serve All-Bran regularly for regularity.
