' A POINT OF VIEW. * Discussion of the Townsend Movement has reached a point in certain quarters where the problem of obtaining the money to pay the old age pension is merely mentioned, as this phase of the question is considered unimportant. The question most vigorously discussed is how much money each person should receive that is over 60 years of age. « A curious has set in. A year "ago the same people derided the moyement as being fantastic and impossible, butrsince they have seen the fantastic amount 1 of money that has been spent by the present administration they have changed their minds. They now believe that money can be obtained for old age pensions and not'a meaaily sls a month either Neither do they think that Dr. Townsend really intends to fight for S2OO per month, this sum they say, being only a basis to be used for bargaining purp<n»es only. The real amount of the pension that will satisfy the Townsendites they do not know. But at this point | the discussion becomes eloquent. The question naturally arises as to how much money could s person retire on after the’age of sixty, with out doing any work. Ask this question yourself, the nest time you are at any kind of a meeting,. The answers will be a revelation as to the complexity of the problem AS TO FLASHERS Immediately after the fatal accident, Sunday morning at the B. A (X R. R. Co.’s crossing on Huntington .street, many persons began to say that flashers should be installed at the crossing. Strange as it may sound, the B. 4 O. proposed to put flashers there, About 1930, j but the town board turned the proposal down, due to the fast that if flashers were installed the railroad intended to do sway with tlU 1 watchman. The board at that time thought that faster protection would be afforded • the school children with the services of a watchman. . The B. AO. is also powerless to change the system of protection until the consent of the town board baa been obtained. tome persons believe that flashers and a watchman should both be maintained at the crossing, but due to the financial , condition of the railroeds, with their accompaning retrenchment program, the latter proposition would be almost impossible to obtain. -4- - - -ft A FEAR-FILLED future. The biggest disgrace to our country since the government refuted He promise to pay gold was the departure of Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Undhorgh and son from this country to England far safety. When the Lindbergh's oldastsirt was kidnapped, and killed, an editorial printed in th Journal stating Uody should never attempt to most the demands of kidnappers, should never boy the right for his child to Hve, aroused much criticism, because, everyone said, the editor and his wife haven’t any children. Alt having negotiated once, to buy the right for his child to Hveto no avail, now Lindbergh must spend the rest of his life dreading farther negotiations. An animal trainer in the circus never gives the wild animal the upper hand for ' one minute—if he does tfcs trainer B lost. Everyone i* aorry for the Lindbergh family—and not so proud of . our country at this time. UQr USE OF LIBRARY APPRECIATED On the last day, the place for holding the bridge benefit for the Little Theatre club wee changed from the Masonic reception room to the Rhbße Library. Some one evidently did neArthink that a card party in Ha Masonic hail was prewar. Soma precedent more than likely would have been broken if the card party fenA basn allowed in the halL The hope now is dud the public mad the library board do not become shocked when they learn that the Bbrary was used for card playing. ~ oRECEIVE AWARDS Charts* Back, of Syracuse, was pramal# with s light sweater £^Twd Co, X presentation* ware made by Coach Carl W.
