Townsend Author of $200 Age Pension Plan Pauses in S. "We'll Wield Big Stick at Next Says Dr. Townsend "We are going to wield the big stick' at the next election. "President Roosevelt's chances for reelection are getting slimmer every minute. He hasn't got chance.

"Two administrations in six years of depression have, proved amply they don't know it's all about." With these and other positive statements, a mild-mannered, grayhaired man of 68 years, Dr. Francis E. 1 Townsend, originator of the Townsend revolving pension plan, condemned present reconstruction efforts and launched into an explanation of his own plan, immediately upon his arrival Sunday by Western Air Express company plane from Los Angeles. Traveling with him is Mrs. Townsend.

Dr. Townsend spoke Saturday night at a meeting of 10,000 in Phoenix, took a plane Sunday morning for Los Angeles, where he joined Mrs. Townsend on the trip to Salt Lake City, where they arrived at 6 p. m. The pension plan originator planned to leave Monday at 5:10 a.

m. for Great Falls, where he was invited to address a Labor day mass meeting, a link in a series of addresses he will give in Idaho and Montana. Outlines Campaign "Before the 1936 election, we will put every candidate on the spot' and make him sign on the dotted line. They will not get elected unless they sign an agreement to back our plan to the limit," said the doctor, who said he believes in his plan infinitely more today than he did a year ago last November, when he first launched it. "The last congress went tied hand and foot to the administration," he said, "and couldn't back our plan.

We'll change the complexion of the next congress. We control millions of votes, and we are organizing to control more in each congressional district." He said President Roosevelt is losing ground fastest where he expected to have the strongest hold in the south- because of his action reducing benefits to cotton growers and his "food reduction program." "We can't get out of this hole," he asserted, "by borrowing so much we can't pay it back in 1000 years. Urges 'Buying Class' "Before we can put people back to work, we must develop a buying class. That is what my plan would do." He said a 2 per cent transactions tax would be ample to provide the much talked about. $200 8 month to citizens over 60 years of age who would retire from gainful employment, quoting figures of bank withdrawals for 1929 as indicative of transactions which would be taxable under his plan.

The plan hasn't gone so well in Utah, he admitted, saying this was largely because of lack of direction from headquarters. Young organizers, more competent in many cases than volunteer workers used in the past, now are being sent out, particularly to the more populous districts of the east, he said. The principal outlay is for salaries of these organizers, he said. "No, I can't say who will be the next President of the United States. We will have to await developments.

"If we lose in the next congress, I will keep on working we win, he asserted. Driver Killed In Auto Crash Near Draper Drum Falls From Truck and Causes Machines to Collide Clifford M.

Clark Observes Birth Anniversary in Mexico On a business trip to' Mexico City, J. Reuben Clark first counselor in the first presidency of the L.

D. S. church, celebrated his sixty-fourth birthday there Sunday. Mrs. Clark was with him.

Mr. Clark, a former United States ambassador to Mexico, is president of. the. Foreign Bondholders' Protective Council, Inc. He was born in Grantaville September 1, 1871.

as the basis of new investigaagencies, not, however, with his probable death, but of lookcrime conditions in southern Utah. The present status of the matter was featured with these situations: (1) Although not officially firmed, it was indicated that federal authorities were investigating 8 report that a large narcotic ring had a hideout and cache in an isolated section of the southern Utah mountains. (2) Some weeks ago officers lost the trail of a fleeing Colorado criminal near the southeastern Utah border. This gave rise to the belief that gangsters maintained a rendezvous in the remote country. Cattle Rustling (3) Cattle rustling is known to be going on in southern Utah.

An investigation of this likewise is probable by authorities. (4) Attorney General Joseph Chez has -announced that the state will go to the bottom of the Ruess case and will appoint a special investigator to handle it. It is the expressed theory of law enforcement officers and men familiar with the unsettled country in which Ruess vanished that he may have accidentally contacted a criminal band or wandered into their hideout and was shot to silence him. Saturday Mr. Chez requested G.

J. Goulding, county attorney at Panguitch, to deliver a bridle and halter belonging to Ruess to state authorities. The two pieces of equipment found in Davis canyon. In a small, crude pasture near by searchers discovered Ruess' two burros in a starving condition. These represent the only clues as to where Ruess made his last camp.

Wine Holds Comment Mr. Chez wrote to Mr. Goulding: "Inasmuch as Ruess was last seen in Kane county, I suggest that you deliver the bridle to the county attorney of said county, Mr. David L. Pugh of Kanab, as it is the situs of a legal action." Louis D.

Wine, special agent in charge of the department of justice office in Salt Lake City, declined either to affirm or deny that a fedinvestigation of a narcotic or other of criminal gang in Utah was under way. When informed of the report that dope sellers had a hideout and cache "somewhere in the remote mountains," he made no comment, except to admit that "we have such indications." Another report that an unidentified plane had been seen flying over the desert and uninhabited country, and was believed to have made a landing, was not confirmed. Officers, however, believe that the plane may have carried a fugitive to one of the sought hideouts. It has been announced by Olof R. Michelsen, Sixth judicial district attorney, that Kane county will ask for state aid in solving the Ruess mystery.

The Associated Civic Clubs of Southern Utah, representing approximately 15 counties, have appointed a committee to present the results of a search for Ruess by that organization to state authorities. The evidence and data gathered by a recent Tribune expedition which sought to discover a trace of the missing artist has likewise been turned over to state and federal bureaus. Four Being Investigated It was learned from a reliable source Saturday that four persons are being investigated as possible accessories to the fact of Ruess' disappearance. These four men were known to have been in the vicinity either immediately before or immediately after Ruess made a camp in Davis canyon. Although it has not been abandoned, the theory that Ruess was slain for his valuable trail outfit has lost precedence.

Also being Ruess considered is the suggesmay have met an accidental death and that his outfit later was stolen. Both federal and state officers admit that they are facing a difficult case, one rife with every element of the story, yet there are angles, in addition to the disappearance, promise results neither the police nor the men Martin Christensen Funeral Rites Held In Emigration Ward are in great contrast to those of the previous week, and have brought the public to sharper consideration of meteorological matters. They brought residents to the realization that it might be well to go on the Labor day picnic equipped with mufflers, gloves and earmuffs. Mr. J.

Cecil. Alter, government weather man, could give no assurance that the present cold would not continue, and tindeed predicted that very thing for the northern part of while the southern part may suffer the indignancies of unsettled weather. And no precipitation was in sight for Salt Lake City, different names by the various state departments administering them as a matter of bookkeeping convenience. "The establishment of these various funds he says, "was not: by legislative act, but have been set up and christened by the various state departments administering these funds merely for the purpose of convenience." He says it "becomes immaterial whether the moneys propriated are in the miners' hospital interest fund or the disabled miners' fund." The money available for this purpose is derived from lands set aside under the enabling act. The opinion was written Deputy Attorney General S.

D. Huffaker. Funeral services for Martin Christensen, 64, father of State Chemist M. Elmer Christensen 'and prominent church worker, were conducted Sunday afternoon in the Emigration L. D.

S. ward chapel. Mr. Christensen died at the family residence, 923 East Seventh South street, Wednesday, following a brief illness. He was born in Fountain Green August 25, 1871, a son of Martin and Maren Johannah Christensen.

He had been active in the L. D. S. church in Murray and in Salt Lake City, acting as recorder in the Salt Lake City L. D.

S. temple at the time of his death. Speakers at the services were Bishop Alma Rasmussen, who officiated; George F. Richards, member of the council of twelve apostles of the L. D.

S. church; Joseph Christensen, J. Clyde Coult, Don Mack Dalton, U. G. Miller and Bryant S.

Hinckley. Musical selections were furnished the White Chapel quartet, solo by Alvin Keddington and violin solo by Miss Aurelia Shimer. Burial was. in the Murray City, I cemetery,.
