Congressman Main Spurns Townsend Endorsed Pension Plan
Rep. Verner W. Main says he will waive Townsend club endorsement in the upcoming primary. He cannot accept a 190 percent pledge for a $200 monthly old age pension, stating it would prevent him from representing all district residents while backing adequate pensions. He notes some Townsend members disagree with the $200 plan.
