CITIZENSHIP REFUSED TO FOUR RELIEF CLIENTS NEW ORLEANS, June 16. (UP) — United States citizenship was denied today to four foreigners because they were on relief and "are unable financially to contribute to the support of the government.” United States Judge, Wayne G. Borah, made the decision and said so far as he knew, it was without precedent. The applicants wore Andrew Joseph Falette, Italy; Natale Martello, Italy; Nicholas George Bougelas, Turkey, and Alberto Guerrero, Nicar-
agua.
“The naturalization laws clearly contemplate,” Judge Borah said, "that an applicant for citizenship, if admitted, should be a citizen in fact as well as in name, that he should assume the duties and obligations of that status as well as enjoy its privileges in other words that his admission should be mutually beneficial to the government and to himself." Grover C. Warren, naturalisation examiner, explained that the four applicants were an relief and expected to continue on relief. There is no direct law applying, he said, but in the state of Washington, naturalization was denied to an applicant who said ho wanted to become a citizen so he
could draw a pension.
PASTORS OPPOSE JOBS FOR WIVES; LONG ENGAGEMENTS MINNEAPOLIS, (UP) - Working wives are a menace to society, hut postponed marriages are an even greater danger, a survey conducted among 166 pastors in 160 American cities revealed today. i The survey showed that two out of ' every three ministers consulted ad- ; vised against lengthy engagements i even though the bride must work for a time to help establish the home. The pastors felt, however, that married happiness and stability was 'doubtful where a wife worked stead-
iiy-
Typical comments were 1 "The man's self-respect Inevitably suffera.” “Children must be postponed, or
live like orphans.” “The arrival of a baby boosts expenses and stops the wife’s earnings, abruptly lowering living standards and putting a heavy strain on marital ties.” “The only exception is where the wife’s employment is strictly a temporary measure.” The same number of pastors agreed that the accumulation of postponed marriages in recent years offers one of the gravest social prob-
lems.
"This has been a major factor in a moral breakdown on a large scale,” declared an Ohio pastor. Other comment on long engagements: "Feeling unable to finance the marriage on a satisfactory level,’a great many have rationalized themselves into living together without marriage.” "Long postponements of marriages have resulted in great bitterness and a cynical social attitude among young people ” TOWNSEND NOMINATED (rontlnueil I'rom Pmce Onrl tonal campaign that the convention rules committee adopted special measures last night to help clear the atmosphere. Lieutenant-Governor Townsend announced his candidacy for governorship of Indiana at the Jackson day dinner held at Marion, on January 9. He was born August 11, 1884, on a farm in Blackford county, Indiana. His parents were young tenant farmers. his mother being but eighteen years of age at the time of his birth. There has always been a beautiful sympathy between Clifford and his mother, and, naturally, she was anxious for him to receive an education. His mother proposed he leave the farm and earn the money for this purpose. Two years as a teamster in the oil fields and as a laborer in a glass factory earned him enough money to enter college. A suit of clothes bought the day before he entered college cost $7.50. He taught school the following year and from then on for eight years he attended college during the summer months and taught during the winter. He received his A B. degree from Marion college and later completed a course in business administration at the Marion Business college. Agriculture, business, and governmental administration constitute the main part of his education. Mr. Townsend taught in the Blackford county schools and served as superintendent of schools in both Blackford and Grant counties from 1909 until 1919. During the first two years of his superintendency he also operated a meat market in Grant county. Mr. Townsend then spent most of his time on his farm until 1925 when he again became county superintendent of schools which position he held until 1929. He was a member of the state legislature in 192.3 and director of organization for the Indiana farm bureau from 1929 until 1932 when he became lieutenant-governor. Mr. Townsend was a candidate for county superintendent of schools in Blackford and Grant counties five times and was elected unanimously to this office every time except the first at which time there was only one vote against him. In 1928 he ran for congress and was defeated by the anti-Smith sentiment while at the same time AI Smith lost the same congressional district by 15.936 more votes than did Townsend. In the last general election when he was running for lieutenant-governor, Mr. Townsend was elected by a majority of 194.870. This gave Mr. Townsend a greater majority than President Roosevelt by 10.101 votes. In 1910. Mr. Townsend was married to Nora Harris, a member of one of the oldest Quaker families in Grant county. They have three children. He is a member of the First Methodist church in Marion and of the Elks lodge in Hartford City. Mr. Townsend's home now is 1321 South Washington street, Marion.

He had an even more vigorous defense of the state government reorganization act which centralizes ad-
ministration in the governor.
"The efficiency and economy of the plan have demonstrated its worth,” he answered. “The only thing wrong act with the plan is that it originated under a Democratic administration.” In answer to Republican attacks on the Hoosier Democratic club which levies a two per cent salary assessment on state employes for campaign purposes, McNutt said; “Our policy of paying narty bills from funds contributed openly and voluntarily by party members is so contrary to their own nefarious practices that they become apoplectic at
the thought of it.”
Omissions were the most significant parts of the Republican state platform. McNutt charged. “No mention is made of the public service commission, the devision of financial institutions, the division of insurance, the teachers’ retirement fund, the industrial board, the state police and the department of conser-vation-all of them hot spots of Republican administrations. “The fact is that all departments of state government have been operated so efficient that they have de-
"ed all criticism.
“Indiana is in better condition than any other state in the United States and the only way to insure a eontinuation of this record is to elect the nominees of this convention and to return a Democratic general assembly to our legislative halls.” Taking up the derisive chant of "Three Long Years” inspired in a keynote address before the G. O. P. national convention. McNutt rebuked it with “three short years” during an enthusiastic review of the state and national Democratic administrations. “They have been long years to Republicans out of power ” he conceded. “They have been short years to a grateful people on the road to
iccovery.”
Enterprise was paralyzed and confidence was gone when the Roosevelt administration took control of the national government in 1933. McNutt
said.
“Three short years ago last March we found ourselves in disorderly, 1 panic-stricken mobs and factions. A Democratic president and a Demo-
, now be entirely eliminated without making impossible the payment of valid obligations of certain taxing units and without the sacrifice of certain essential functions of their government,” the platform declared. I Commending the development of the state highway system, the platform proposed a further extension of the existing moratorium on all laws providing for local tax levies and bond issues for road building, main-
I tenance and repair.
