PENSION GRABBERS
An Old-Age Pension League is be-
ing organized by men in Texas (men
who expect to get a lot of dues out of
the old) to demand that the candi-
dates for Governor and legislator
pledge themselves to grant liberal
pensions to all the old. Just what is
considered a liberal pension is not
mentioned, but it will probably not
be over $200 a month. The men who
are busy forming the league will, we
suspect, get more out of it than will
the worthy old who are content with
a modest pension. Any candidate
who promises a “liberal” pension will
find that promising it and finding
money to supply it are two different
things.—Bonham Favorite.

chuckle out, and then ask one of your
business friends to show you the red
tape connected with keeping up with
these social security taxes. If we had
the sales tax in Texas, it would be
just that much more bookkeeping
misery. Mrs. Vaughn worried with it
until she was sick of it all. And then
she burned down the cafe and retired
from business. Many another tax-
payer has wished his solution were as
simple—that is, if Mrs. Vaughn turns
out to have hit upon a solution that
solves anything.—Dallas Journal.
