Old Age Pension Inquiry CRASH FINDINGS May Last Another Month SENT BY BOARD
TO WASHINGTON. Wsihlngton, Feb. 13i— (A P I— f Houee oommittee hearings on eid jlage pension propoeals are becom- iiig eo detailed offidala aald today, that the Inquiry may laat another month.
Proponents of both the Townsend and tha general welfare pension bIJIa claim enough atrsngth in ths committee to force their measures to the Haute floor when testimony finally U comFiaUd.

(Oeattaraed from Page Oaa.)
The pension hearings represent aclimax to four years of tumult over the principle of regular government payments to the aged. Differences in the proposed syaUms, however, are piecing eot.greaaroen who favor old age pensions In principle under s strong crossfire.
The Townsend bill was Introduced this session by RepreeenUtlve Hen- dricka (D., Fla.). RopresenUUva flheppard (D.. Fla.), eubmltled the welfare bill.
baaed on the principle that every person over 80 abould be giseB a monthly pension o f 3300. 'ThU waa roodlfled later with |300 fixed as a maximum.
The bill provides for a two per cent tranoactlons Uk; tbai U, every time a dollar changod ha fi^ the govemmoat would eolloet two cents. TheOs collactions. amounting to hundreds o f millions o f dOUara a month, would bs distributed among oil ellglbla persona over 00. —

Dr. Franela C. Townsend, originator o f tha plan, oMerU that tha resultant overturn of eumney wOnld lead the nation Into a period of unprecedented prosperity
The genera] welfare act, sponsored by Artbitr L. Johnson, a former TowneendlU, differs from tha Townsend plan largely In that It sub- sUtutos a gross Incemo tax for the transactions tax. I t providsa for maximum monthly pension of 180, Instead of 8300, and a minimum of ISO depending on each beDcficiary's Income from other aources.
Would "Spur Prospertty”Like tha Townaenditee, friends of
the general welfare plan argue that Congreanlonal approval of their proposal would “ spur economic proa- perltv and atablllss It."
Johnson charged yesterday that tha present social aeciurlty program was unfair In that. In effect. It taxed all the people to provide to a limited group. Employers are passing the payroll taxes along to consumers, ha declared, making the payroll tax tantamount to a general levy.

House Democrats will discuss the problem at a conference tomorrow. This will be preceded tonight by a meeting of about 40 Houae members, called by Representative Voor hia (D.-Callf.) to consider reviving the self-styled "liberal bloc,” which suffered heavy casualties in the November election.
Republicans Voting As Unit The Immediate task o f the Demo
cratic leadership is to hold more votes on the floor through each day's session. During the flrst six weeks o f this Congress the House Republicans, captained by stocky, hart-talking Joseph Vt. Martin, Jr., of Massachusetts, have permitted few o f their 180 seats to go empty, and with some exceptions their members have voted almost aa aunit. ......
Such tactics enabled them recently to outvote the majority party, weakened by many absentees, and trim an appropriation for the Tennessee Valley Authority.
Previously they had contributed In both House and Senate the balance of votes necessary to slash |150,(X>0.000 from President Roosevelt’s proposed relief appropriation, although ths induction was Initiated by economy-minded Democrats.
Function Leas As Blee Tn the Senate Rcpubllcana have,
functioned less as a bloc than In the House. Senate members, under the leadership o f shrewd Charjea L. Mo- Nary of Oregon, apparently have been willing to let the strong group o f ontl-administration Democrats taks ths lead tn fighting the Preat- dent's proposals.
This practice docs not bold true in all cases, however, and some politicians believe that as 1640 comes closer, mere and more. Republican senators win move to the front in attacking New Deal proposals. The Republlran view, aa reflected tai Linccln day speeches. Is that popu-

“ ' B f Prrttom C ra i> »r— IWashington—Bvery piece o f form
legislation tluit has been enacted tn CongreM for a half dosen years bos had flrst to hurdle aubaUtute legislation of some sort proposed by the famous team ot Fraxler and Lemke, and It Is so again this year.
There isn't a team In Congress that functions with such a completely unanimous spirit m these two North Dakotans, Benator Frasier and Representative Lc>mke. Their nkmea are paired so often on pending legislation that Lemke gets mall addrc'S.ned to "Reprearntatlve Fiar.ler Lemke."
Ttieir principal leglslstlvs aim Is to relieve farm troubles, for both Insist that most of the recent Ills of the country can be traced dtrecUy to failure to solve the farm problem.
Together they framed '^he 1984 Farm Mortgage moratorium act, which was held unconstitutional by the Supreme Court the following year. Revised and enacted again, the act Ij on the way back for a new test In the Supreme Court
Bark of Important BillsThis session both havs Introduced
the "rost-of-producUon'' farm bill which originated In the wheat and com belt. A dosen other members also have Introduced the bill. Administration leaders say It hasn’t a ghost of a chance to pass, but Frasier and Lemke say It will. Frazier la holding hearings on It.
t'nder the bllVa provisions, the Secretary of Agrlcultnrr would determine a fair price to the farmer for about 90 crops, taking Into consideration the labor and management of the farmer and hla family, his Investment, and other factors. Then itrnlera, all of whom would be strict ly licensed, would ba prohlblt- ed from paying less than this "coat- of-productlon" prlcai
'These two men havs played along together since college days whan they were football buddies. FYaxler la the executive type. For thraa years he was captain of the faotbaU team, a bulky center. Lemka, now a facile-minded attorney, eras a fly- weight guard. He becama captain when Frasier was graduatsd. Thatr favorite play was for Lemke to hf>k out o f the Une, take tha baU. duck around Frasier’s shielding postortor. and hit tha Una on t h T ^ ir h S o l Center.
In 1918 Frasier was etocted gor~ ^ o r , aad re-elscted twice. "Ha was the beat governor North Dakota aver had," says Lemke. became Attorney General tn 191b aad together they framed a neat ot legislation that at once daUghtod tha progrtoalve tarmars of tha state and infuriated the bonkera aad buM- neaa men.. ^ •**“ * me on tha atraato

Critics call many of thair Ideas "crack-pot'' but It doesn't team them. They Insist they are right— and sound.
‘Henry A. WaUaca woe 100 per cent for this coat-of-productlcm plan," says Lemke, "until ba was surrounded by all tha mahogany ui hla present offlue.”
Aa a Union party candidate for rerldent In 1638 Lemke didn't reap a hat full of votes. But North Dakota re-electcd him tKat year to tha House and gave him a 94,000 vote majority again last fall.

first file applicants. Then Marker derides to Inaeatlgatr Individually
CHAPTER VTHIt was ten daya after Susie read
Marker's ad that Jeff Bowman started out to liiveattgatc the five homely appIteantK for Marker's Jeff was what Is roinmonly called a swell guy. To Edna, his mother he was the dearest boy In the world. Hla big frame was loosely himg together, his red hair was none too smoothly brushed He tried to brush It, hut It was that kind of hair. He had nice, healthy akin, sprinkled with a few freck- lea and .sparkling blue eyes. Hla eyes laughed, there was little wrinkle fans at the outer comera from laughing. His chin was stubborn. his mouth could be very tender.
Jeff did not go over lii a hig way with the ^rls, perhaps because they utterly failed to Interest him. His mother said the girls didn't know what they were missing and gave thanks that they did not
To hasten things Jeff went on bis miaaion by plane. He found a girl in Denver. She was well past 40. precise, dull. He marked her Off his list. Two dime store work- ere, one In Detroit, the other Caeveiond, met the same fate.
The fourth applicant was a faded boueewife with a none too attentiva husband. Jeff did not mark hijr off the list. She had very little personality. Jeff thought her a weak sister, but he couldn't help thinking how much fun It would be to fix her^p and flash the result on her no-account husband.
At last he arrived at Rlvertown. the small University city where Miss Susie Lambert dwelt at 1010 BIm street. Jeff hoped Susie was a student He had a great respect for •ducatlon and. If the Chief was eet on Susie. It *ouId be fine If she weren’t too dumb. Going to the old frame house on Elm street he waited for the door to open with pad and pencil In hie hand. When UM landlady answered his ring he announoed that be was taking naaiee for the city directory^
^^en, among others, she men* Uoned Susie, he asked, 'is Miss lAUbert employed?"
Tea , she works at the Waffle Shoppe Just west of the campus. ’
towmrdly Jeff" groaned. Betaking himself to the Shoppe he straddled a atool and ordered a waffle, mean- wMe glancing about.
■'Syrup or honey?" hr was asked by the ivaltress.
"Syrup, nleaee."He beafR her eey, "Waffle and
Suate." and took a good
So that was Susie. Oh, Lordy- Mrdy—. Fat awkward, postv faced. He noted the negative hair, scowling eyebrows, ridlcu- toua glaasea on a erary lltUe nose, the thin, wide mouth. Suslo was teniflc. If the Chief wanted homeliness he had hts wish — w o^e! But the girl could make waffles!
While entoylng one of her masterpieces he saw Susie move pon dwualy across the floor to the telephone, heard her say, "Is there a letter for me, Mrs. Johnson?' and saw her face fall ns she hung
. up tte receiver. As If her face could fall any lower, he thought.
A IU t paying bis check he went to the counter beside Susie. “ I Wg your pardon," he said. "Won-
}f yeu could help me out " I ’ll try." Her voice was pleas-
Mt. extremely pleasant In fact She raised her eyes qucstlonlnglv and Jeff gazed into clear gray Dlai^ess. then the thick lids foilagain.
'Tm looking for n family hv the Mme of Lambert," he told ’ her ■Someone sent me to you said
your name was Lamttert— This was Jeffs ruse to observe Susie tor hli report to Johii Marker
m sorry " she said qiiiellv My family lives on a farm up-
stote. The Lamberts here are strangers to me."
^^'11 thanks Just the same " Jeff went away and Susie looked m er him He'd been friendly Like Dick, he had liaiked at her not through her Like Pick ' There wa.s no one In i!i, world like Dick.
Much of Siisie'a enthusiasm over becoming attractive had faded in Uio past two weeks .che'd been a fool to go off the deep end that way. In retrospect she was a little a g reed of her letter. .Vevertheless she bought a Chicago paper each day and knew that the model had not yet been chosen. A tlnv. quivering hope still lav behind her thoughts.
Jeff went hack to the office and reported to John Marker. At ia.st he got around to .e an liiaanc adven ture, but It was an uilvenlure and
I the first In Susie’s life. Her heart lifted, her feel seemed not to touch the ground. At long last Suale was on nt the chosen.
