Twitchells postwar plan rails against over planning
Elmer Twitchell launches a satirical postwar platform promising not to work too much, to draft no plans, and to ban blueprints in government while naming cabinet members with no bright ideas beyond golf and gin rummy. He pledges to avoid peering into the future and to respect the past. The piece blends political spoof with wartime society notes and mentions a 1943 version of Mary had a little lamb and various wartime concerns.
