STEVENS FAVORS
OLD AGE PENSION:
AID SEEN NEEDED
(Continued from Page One)
we must relinquish our labors to
younger hands. And even then, after
nil this crimping and saving and
economizing, we reach that day and
learn that we have not saved enough.
"And so I am In favor of an old
nge pension with all my heart and
soul, with every fiber of my body. I
believe an old-age pension would be
the greatest social achievement since
the freeing of slaves by the Civil
war."
Mr. Stevens concluded his talk with
an eloquent plea for the re-election
of President Roosevelt, declaring that
"It is to your best Interests to return
to the presidency that great leader
and humanitarian, Franklin D. Roose
velt." Mrs. Pomeroy flpeaka
A discordant note was sounded at
the conclusion of Mr. Stevens' talk
when Mrs. Ariel Burton Pomeroy de
clared that since Dr. Francis E. Town-
send, pension plan founder, had not
endorsed President Roosevelt. Town
sendltes In general "should follow
our great lender."
H. E. Wlrth asserted he did not
want any Townscndlte to leave the
meeting wtth the feeling that he was
obligated not to vote for President
Roosevelt simply because Dr. Town
iiend had not endorsed the Demo
cratic nomlnoe.
"I believe In Dr. Townsend's pen
sion plan but I do not bellevo In
everything tbnt he has said and
done," Mr. Wlrth said. "The na
tional Town send convention did not
endorse any presidential candidate
and personally I'm going to vote for
President Roosevelt."
No Lcnike Vote
Mr. Wlrth was applauded, where
upon Mrs. Pomeroy declared that all
presidential candidates had been In
vited to the Townsend convention
and that the leader of the Union
party was the only one to accept.
Mrs. Pomeroy said that she her
self would not vote for Lemke be
cause he had gathered Socialists and
Communist Into his ranks but nei
ther could ahe support either major
pnrty when each had been repudi
ated by "our great leader."
At that point the meeting was
quickly declared adjourned by George
Tverson, club president and presid
ing officer at the meeting.
During the prior routine business
meeting Mr. Wirth said a letter had
been received asking the club to do.
nnte 10 to the campaign fund of
Willis Mnhoney, Democratic candi
date for the United States senate.
He aald, however, a better plan had
been evolved, whereupon he called
for $13 to pay for 6000 printed hand
bills to be distributed by Townsend
clubs throughout Jackson county.
For Kmlorsrd Nominees
The handbills, Mr. Wirth explained,
would call upon nil Townsondltes to
vote for Mr. Mahoney, Mr. Stevens,
Mr. Stephenson and James W. Mott,
Republican candidate for re-election
to congress. The Jackson county
Townnend cnventlon endorsed these
Tour candidates a week 'ago last
night.
Mrs. Henrietta B. Martin was the
first to volunteer a 2 contribution
to the handbill fund. The fund was
quickly oversubscribed.
In hia talk Mr. Stevens repeated a
prior declaration that his Ides of the
Townsend pension plan was embod
ied In the McOronrly bill pending
before congress. He said he believed
that an old-age pension as provided
In the btll was entirely feasible and
cited statistics In support of his be
lief. He was warmly applauded
For McOioarly Bill
In his letter Mr. Stephenson alao
stremtod the McOroarty bill. His let
ter follows:
"I am very sorry that 1 will be
unable to attend your meeting this
evening as I have been unexpectedly
called out of town. It will be im
possible for me to be bsck before the
meeting adjourns.
"There are a few worda I would
like to say In regard to the old-age
xuion.
"It seems to me quite a few people
misunderstood the letter that was
published In the paper a few days
ago, and I want to try to get your
orgsnlntlon and the voters of Jack
son county clear on my views re
garding this matter.
Knvnrs Penlim
"I am in favor of an old-age pen
sion and think that the MrClroarty
bill or any other bill which would
sponsor a transaction or turnover tax
would be taking the proper steps to
take rare of the old people.
"I do not think that the original
Townsend plan of aaoo a month or
any specified amount would be feas

VOLUMES FOR AILMENTS BUT NOT A WORD FOR HEALTH.
Certain Individuals seem to be en
dowed with a superior state of health.
It la not merely the luck to escape
Illnesses which
overtake most
people at one
time or another,
but Inherent vi
tality. The resi
liency of the un
tamed animal,
the endurance of
the u n t r a 1 ned
savage, the zest
of youth. Many
authors have at
tempted to de
fine this supe
rior state of
health In various phrases, such as
preservation of the characteristics of
youth, better-than-average nutri
tional condition as manifested by
higher leve 1 of positive health
throughout the life cycle, better
growth and development, extension
of the prime of life in both direc
tions, Improvement of the life ex
pectation of adults, lower death rates,
tho highest degree 'of natural Im
munity, an adequate reserve power
to tide over strains and emergencies.

suitable word to convey the Idea of
that superior state of health to sub

word for It, a word I can use tn this
column and elsewhere, I declared,
the word would be worth twenty-five
dollars to me.

total of twelve hundred twenty-one

forty-two letters some of them six

me back to Scripture and made me

health only by taking up this or that

majority who euggested words or
terms without Imposing upon me
their views of the cause and preven

QUESTIONS AND ANSWKRS
Raw Vegetables
I have great longing for raw veget
ables, and eat them dally, from spin
ach to corn on the cob, .Last winter
I began eating raw sweet potatoes
and they seemed to satisfy the crav
ing, but friends tell me they damage
the kidneys. I have picked up in
flesh and strength and look better
tban I did. but friends warn me I
should not eat raw things . . . (Mrs.
E O.)
Answer Unless for some reason
your physician specifically prohibits
particular Items, it is not only harm
less but healthful to eat whatever
raw vegetables you like. Indeed every
one should make a rule to eat at
least one or two raw vegetables dally
cabbage, carrot, turnip, green, po
tato, etc., and 1 think It is a health
ful habit to eat raw wheat, plain
farmer's wheat, every day It makes
good chewing.
Chest over Waist
What la the normal ration of chest
measurement to waist measurement,
that Is, for a man who Is not an
athlete? (A. L. W.)
Answer Girth of waist should be
five to eight Inches less than girth of
expanded chest. Girth of hips not
greater than girth of unexpanded
chest. Breadth of waist little more
than length of foot. For every inch
a man's waist measure exceeds his
chest measure two years may be sub
tracted from his life expectation.

Day's News
npHE government of the United
States -Is spending more money
than any government ever spent be
fore In the history of the world.
In the first three years of the
Roosevelt administration, the, gov
ernment of the United States spent
as much as ALL our federal govern
ments spent In ALL the years from
Washington to Wilson,
VFET, In spite of this staggering
spending, the average citizen of
this country hasn't YET felt the
pinch of taxation. Neither has he
been besought to buy bonds, as was
the case back In the war years when
the tremendous expenditures of war
time were being financed.
So these questions naturally arise:
Where Is all this money coming
from? If It is being raised so EASILY,
with so little pinching of the average
Individual, Isn't the New Deal a pret
ty smart outfit after all?
pRANK KNOX, Republican nomi-
nee for vice-president, answered
both these questions the other day
In a short address at Rocky Point.
Rhode Island.
"The federal government," he told
his hearers, "is spending TEN MIL
LION DOLLARS A DAY more than it
receives In taxes. This money is bor
rowed, in the main, from the banks.
"As lender to the federal govern
ment, the banks are slowly being
converted Into agencies for the fi
nancing of government deficits."
4 N OTHER Important question
arises at this point. It ts this:
"WHOSE Is the money In the banks?"
Why, It la YOURS and mine. It
belongs to the banks' depositors. In
a sense. It la EVERYBODY'S, for
nearly everybody keeps his money In
a bank In these modern days.
The government, as Mr. Knox tells
us. Is meeting Its $10,000,000 a day
deficit by borrowing the money
which the people of this country
have deposited In the banks.
That is where the money ts coming
from.
pHE process. Incidentally, creates
an interesting and not too re
assuring situation. When the gov
ernment borrows money from the
bsnks, It turns around and red epos
Its the money, thus creating an AD
DITIONAL total of bank deposits
from which It msy borrow again
The result Is an INFLATED credit
structure. But that Is a highly tech
nical subject which we ordinary peo
ple aren't supposed to understand.)
HPHE point la thla:
When you borrow from the bank,
jou know that you must REPAY
the LOAN unless, of course, you go
broke. It la the same with the gov
ernment. The money It Is borrowing
now from the banks to meet the ten
million dollars a day deficit of which
Mr. Knox speaks It must REPAY
LATER,
The only m-ay the government has
tn get money Is to tax the people.
CO. you see, while we aren't yet
feeling the pinch of taxation,
we'll have to feel It when the govern
ment has to repay the money It Is
now borrowing from the banks.
