X" JJ AMOCIATICN
FARMERS AND
TOWNSEND PLAN
(Chariton, Iowa, Herald-Patriot)
One of the arguments advanced by
supporters of the Townsend pension
plan is that it would bring about a
distribution of wealth. x
The National Industrial Confer
ence Board, in a study made public
this week, screes, but points out that
it would be a "drastic" redistribution
of the national income at the expense
of millions of wage earners, salaried
employes, farmers and owners of
small businesses.
Taxes required under the Town
send plan, the board found, would
amount to nearly half the total na
tional income. It was further re
ported that the cost would be more
than half of all wages and salaries,
eight times as much as all dividends
and more than three times the gross
cash income from all farms.
Farmers would suffer, it was de
clared. The proposed two per cent
???
transaction tax on gross a^nKUHuiu
income would take away a considera
ble share of profit from the small
number of farmers who have net in
comes force others to reduce
their standard of living, the board
said.
Other findings were:
Under the Townsend plan corpora
tions would be forced to pass the two
per cent transaction tax to the con
sumer in higher prices or go out of
business. Even in 1929 most corpor
ations had no net income or net in
come was less than two per cent, ef
the press.
Wage earners and salaried em
ployes would suffer a lower standard
of living because their purchasing
power would decline due to higher
living costs, and two per cent of their
earnings would be regularly taken
away by the tax.
The adoption of the Townsend plan
would cause a collapse of prices of
all fixed income-bearing securities,
and would make it impossible for the
goveranmet to obtain loans at a rea
sonable rate of interest
The Townsend plan would cause
wholesale bankruptcies of real estate
concerns, and destruction of capital

estate mortgages depends, which in
torn serve as a hacking for life in
surance policies, bank deposits and
other forms of savings.
The total cost of government
would increase to about $40,000,900,
000. The necessary sums would have
to be obtained in the end by means
of general inflation of prices and de
preciation of the- value of money.
LIBERTY UNDER
THE CONSTITUTION
(Plymouth, Wis., Review)
Today certain critics are subject
ing the American Constitution to
vigorous attack. They are saying it
is outmoded and unable to cope with
modern conditions. And they are
suggesting changes and amendments
which, in some cases, would amount
to complete emasculation of the
rights and liberties we now enjoy un
der Constitutional protection.
Let us not be too hasty about
changing this document of which a
major portion is devoted to protect
ing our rights and liberties. The
constitution has been amended many
times; and may be again, but never
in such a manner as to abridge the
rights of freedom of speech, freedom
of the press; and the other inaliena
ble rights guaranteed within it.
It is usually easier to eritise than
to defend, and the critics of ties Con
stitution have found many listeners
and not a few convert!. Lest we
forget the virtues of this marvelous
? ? ??it *1?' ??
uttered in 18T> fcy England's great
est rtittini*". William Gladstone:
"The American Constitution is, as
fv at I can tee; the most wonderful
work ever struck off at a given tune
bjr the brain and purpose of man."

Enjoyable to hostesses and guests
alike was the lovely dinner party,
given the first evening when the

and tea were so pleasantly combined.
HELPFUL? Was it helpful to

as vivacious and charming as she is
intelligent and industrious, was
"among those present"), to plan the

day, varying the service, family and
