Chicago January 13 The Townsend pension plan gains momentum as the House approves the soldiers bonus.

He argues the immediate bonus boosts purchasing power and that pensions would similarly lift money circulation. Administration lawmakers signal willingness to raise funds, with Roosevelt at Warm Springs guiding strategy. A two percent transactions tax is proposed to finance monthly pensions for all elderly citizens.
