TOWNSEND CLUB
CASK NOW SENT
DIRECT TO CHIEF
National Organization Fears
Suit to Tie Up Funds,
Manager Says.
Townsend Clubs In Indiana are
either holding sums due the na
tional organization in their treas
uries or sending them to Dr. F. E
Townsend direct, it was learned to
day.
Funds released are sent to the new
national headquarters of the Town
send movement at 720 N. Michigan
av, Chicago, in the personal care of
Dr. Townsend, it was said.
C. F. McCampbell, state area
manager, said rush moneys are
credited to a "preparedness fund ’
or ‘defense’’ account.
Fear that national funds might be
tied up in litigation because of the
recent congressional investigation
resulted in orders from the Chicago
office that funds due the national
organization be diverted to Dr.
Townsend personally, or kept in the
club treasuries on call, he said.
Funds received by the Indiana of
fice are sent to national head
quarters and not to the ‘‘prepared
ness’’ fund, however, Mr. McCamp
bell declared.
Reorganization Is Delayed
Mr. McCampbell said the strategy
probably would be continued until
the. House inquiry is ended.
Reorganization of the state Town
send forces in preparation for the
fall election is to be postponed un
til after the state conventions of the
two major parties, it was reported.
The state Townsend organization
is scheduled to meet Monday in
Castle Hall. A liaison officer is to
be named for Indiana who will be
the representative of the national
organization.
