We will i use the old party machinery and win a safe control of the house of' representatives and several eeata in the senate. Eventually we iprobably I ; sha'l have to organize a third party ■ movement.” Townsend said that regardless of ’ | convention action on endorsing ' Lemke's candidacy, the pension orI ganization would be presented In I every congressional district during ! i this campaign. So far as possible I the Towneend clubs will endorse , Democratic or Republican candidates who approve the Towia>end plan. . i To reports that there was much Roosevelt-for-President sentiment .: among the west coast delegatee, ’ Townsend replied that individuals ‘ ' cou'd do as they pleased, but no sacI tion within the Townsend ograniza- ; tion had any right to endorse a Pre- | sident'al candidate. “I shall never vote for Roosevelt," Townsend said, "and I shall not ! vote for Landon. I am oppceed to both the Republican and the Democratic parties as such. I would | rather vote for a socialist that for I either of them although God knows 1 am no socialist.” The doctor advanced the thought I that the party system was outworn | and suggested the governmental machinery be revamped to establish I unicameral state and national legisi latures. the members to be elected 1 by the town greeting system. “We should reduce the number of I congressmen,” he continued. “There j are 435 in the house and they are I Lalling over each other, taking their legislation from the outside and acting as rubber stamps." Townsend ruled himself out of the Presidential race because “no one approaching 70 shofld have that office," He charged that Sen. William E. Borah, who is up for ree'ection in Idaho, had "plouted the j greatest voting groups in his state, the Townsend Clubs.” Other club leaders predicted Borah's defeat. — - —o Free Gas Expensive j St. Louis. — (U.R) — Free gas—of the escaping type—was expensive I for the Laclede Gas Company 1 which paid the city $12,050 for 1 killing trees in an out of court ! settlement. o — Planes Disrupt Movies — London.-(U.R) —Because the noise of planes frequently holds up pro- ! duction in moving picture studios : around London, it has been decid-j 'ed to fit all studios with special soundproof roofs.

CHINA FACES NEW TROUBLE Cantonese Leaders Defy Central Chinese Government Hong Kong. July 14.—(U.R>—Cantonese leaders decided today to defy the central Chinese government and to tight if necessary to preserve their autonomous regime. ■ Faced with a decree by the central government dissolving their administration, and asserting that , an order had been issued for an . attack on their troops in Kwantung , province, the Cantonese leaders retorted by electing Gen. Chen Chi-Tang as commander in chief of the massed Cantonese armies. The central government sought to replace Chen, overlord of the i Cantonese faction and military . governor of Kwangtung province. . By h:a election today he becomes . commander as well of all troops in adjoining Kwangsi province. > The election was heid at a joint . session of the southwest political i and executive councils, comprising . the Cantonese government. I Official Cantonese advices said . that the central government had ; j sent an order to Gen. Yu Han-Mou, i newly appointed central governi ment commandant in the troublous ,; zone on the Kwangtung-Kwangsi , j province borders, to move against I I the Cantonese. Central government troops, it was added, would advance from Yasu on the Cantonese forces. Emergency preparations tor offense of Canton were started, the ; advice said, in anticipation of a . possible advance on the southern capital. Trenches and barbed wire entanglements were constructed in the outskirts of the city, it was said, and all men who could be spared were sent northward to meet the central government soldiers. Cantonese leaders will resist any effort of the central government to oust them from power, a spokesman of the Canton army said today. The spokesman, talking by telephone from Canton to the United Press, said that the southwestern government had not been informed officially of the decision of the ’ central government to liquidate it.
