CHINESE, JAPANESE HERE America’s numerous Chinatowns Chinese laundries and chop suey restaurants create the Impression that the Chinese far outnumber the Japanese In this country today. The fact Is, however, that there are 139, 000 Japanese and only 75,000 Chi nese. And although their women are seldom seen on the streets, there are 25 Chinese women and 70 Japanese women for every 100 men of their respective races.—Collier’s Weekly. BOYS! GIRLS!

DOCTORS^KNOW Mothers read this: THRU VTIM r—:-itc iiuiviit I ' -_--| COMIT1PATIRR A cleansing dose today; a smaller quantity tomorrow; less each time, until bowels need no help at all. Why do people come home from a hospital with bowels working like a well-regulated watch? The answer is simple, and it’s the answer to all your bowel worries if you will only realize it: many doctora and hospitals use liquid laxatives. If you knew what a doctor knows, you would use only the liquid form. A liquid can always be taken in gradually reduced doses. Reduced dosage is the secret of any real relief from constipation. Ask a doctor about this. Ask your druggist how very popular liquid laxatives have become. They give the right kind of help, and right amount of help. The liquid laxative generally used is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It contains senna and cascara — both natural laxatives that can form no habit, even in children. So, try Syrup Pepsin. You just take regulated doses till Nature restores regularity. Nona Perfect Even the first man, Adam, was de fective. lie was short one rib.

By Carter Field % FAMOUS WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT ^ « Washington.—Practical Jim Far ley will have more to do with Pres ident Itoosevelt'a re-election—If he Is re-elected—than all the New Deal brain trusters put together, or than many of the Issues which In the last few months have attracted so much attention. Farley has really built up a na tional organization. It ramifies down not only to every county, but to every precinct In the 48 states, and it Is busy all the time. It hus been working like mad In directions thnt have attracted no attention whatever. For example, it has been conducting a drive lately to get every Democrat, man or woman, who happens to be on the federal pay roll In Washington but charged to New York state, to register. It hus run speclul excursion trains to New York with reduced fares, meal prices, etc., to bring about this reg istration. This is a sample of the kind of activity which makes organization or machines (the choice of words depending on whether you are for them or against them) strong. It Is the kind of thing that explains, In large part, why Tammany normally elects mayors in New York despite the black eye the Tiger has in most of the country. It is the reason the Republican organization generally won In Phil adelphia, the Democratic In Balti more. etc. Much better Illustrations are Chi cngo and St. Louis. The point here being thnt these two big Middle Western towns have had periods during the last twenty years when the strong organization was with one party, and then the other party developed a better. Thus proving that It Is not the normal political Inclination of the voters In these big cities which Is so Important, hut the fact thnt the machine gets the vote registered, and then gets It voted on election day. Not to men tion seeing thnt It is counted— at least once—after the poWs nre closed. Started In Early parley began bis real activities following the election of Itoosevelt as governor of New York In 1030. Ills Tammany background was shocked at the state of the party above the Bronx. There were whole counties where the local Democratic organization was a mere adjunct to the local G. O. i\ boss, and received patronage scraps from the local G. O. I\ table In reward. Farley Installed a real fighting organization, with workers in every upstate precinct. That explained Roosevelt’s enormous majority In 1030, which made him the logical Presidential nominee. With the opening of the 1033 campaign, Far ley started the same sort of organ ization work for the whole country, lie has been at It ever since. The 1034 election, far more sweeping than even the Roosevelt landslide of 1033, was not generally recognized as the fruit of this organization work, but uctually It was most po tent In bringing It about. Today the organization that Far ley lias built up Is stronger than In 1031. Whereas the Republican na tional organization, and the local organization in many doubtful states, is infinitely weaker than at any time since the end of the Civil war. This Is the very little discussed handicap that the Republican nom inee to oppose Roosevelt next year will face. For instance, Illinois is admit ted by many observers to be apt to go Democratic. Why? Be cause of the strength of the Kelley machine In Chicago, plus the Far ley Inspired organization downstate. Were the obi Thompson machine in existence In the Windy City, the state would he Ugured probably Re publican. In Missouri the Pendergnst ma chine In Kansas City, plus the de cay of the old "Rig Four” Republic an machine In St. I/onls, makes all the difference. It votes in the bal lot box, not sentiment ’round the radio, that elects. And machines know bow to get them In the boxes. Back to Prohibition Must people may laugh at the pre dictions of dry leaders that this country Is headed back toward pro hibition—but not the distillers. Be hind tills attitude of fear is a very curious sltuatlou, very obvious to anyone inquiring into It, but not generally realized. It Involves the possibility that in the next tight to get prohibition, for the tight is not only coming but has begun, the effort will be to prohibit not any beverage in excess of one-half of 1 per cent, as the Volstead law read, nor even of “Intoxicating beverages" as the Eighteenth amendment read —but distilled liquor. Distillers are keenly aware of that. This explains their caution, ns contrasted with the attitude of the brewers and wine makers. There was a great deal of talk. Just be fore prohibition, about “light wines and beer.” All of which is curious, in view of the tremendous prejudice which existed In that long period leading tip to prohibition against the word ‘beer.” It was generally coupled with an even more objectionable word "saloon.” In fact, one fre quently heard the words jointly— "beer saloon.” That prejudice seems to have faded until little Is left of It. When wartime prohibition was being dis cussed In the senate, Wadsworth of New York, painted a delightful pic ture of the Joys and temperateness of wine drinking. Senator Norris, one of the dryest of the drys, rose and asked If the senator from New York would be satisfied if the hill exempted wine. Wadsworth said he would like to save beer, too. Nor ris and other drys threw up their hands. It was unthinkable. It may be that this original prejudice, so much stronger against beer than wine, though wine contained normally a much larger percentage of alcohol, grew out of the difficulty some re ligious drys had In surmounting the Feast of Cana, but whatever the truth, the fact will be recalled by anyone In this country at the time that beer was far more obnoxious to the drys than wine. Hits “Hard Liquor” But now state after state, In cluding Virginia, home state of Bishop Cannon, makes the sale of beer and wine simple, but throws many restrictions around the sale of “hard liquor.’’ In a way the plan follows that practiced for a long time In Canada. So-called “wine cocktails” are offered in hotel din ing rooms, but not martinis or man hattans. Beer is sold everywhere. Beer and wine are sold in Vir ginia, Washington, and many other places in this country much more freely than in the old pre-prohibi tion days. Before prohibition the only places that would sell a cus tomer a glass or bottle of beer were licensed saloons, which were strict ly limited as to number. Now there nre frequently five In one block. In Washington these are sandwiched between stores which are licensed to sell only packaged goods not to be consumed on the premises. All of which change in sentiment —If It really does represent a change—Is very apparent to the dis tillers, and their fear of the next tight grows, for their thought Is that If the fight Is concentrated on distilled liquor, or, any beverage exceeding 15 per cent or 20 per cent alcoholic content, they will not have the brewers, the wine makers nnd the grape growers with them. Postal Savings While there is no Intention in the administration of yielding to the clamor of privately owned banks for the abolition or sharp con traction, of the postal savings sys tem, there Is Just ns much opposi tion in official quarters to the elabo rate plans for expanding that sys tem, including checking accounts, and going into a general banking business. Officials, both of the reserve board nnd post office, insist that they do not want to change the present system at all. They do not want to push privately owned and mutual savings banks out of busi ness, and they do not want the gov ernment going into the banking busi ness on a Inrge scale But at the same time they are unwilling to deprive the public of what they regard as a “privilege.” Actually it is rather puzzling that the postal savings system has not made greater inroads on savings banks in many communities, for example, the cities of New York state. In the Empire state the state banking authorities do not permit savings accounts to draw more than 2 per cent, which is precisely the rate paid by postul deposits. Money Is Safe With the government guarantee ing all bank deposits, they point out, there is no question, so far as well informed people are concerned, of the safety of their money. So if the private banks pay a higher rate than the postal savings, the private banks should attract savings depos its as never before since postal sav ings was Inaugurated. Postal savings had the big boom, very" naturally, in 1033, the year of the bank holiday. In December of that year they crossed $1,000,000. 000. By the time confidence had been restored, and the government guarantee of deposits set up, the banks hnd begun to cut their inter est rales. So there was no Incen tive to take the money out of postal savings and put it back in the banks. In most large cities of this country this is still true. Where there are legal restric tions on the amount of interest that can be paid, as in New York, it is Just a question of protecting the banks from getting more deposits thnn they can profitably and safely Invest, considering the low rate of interest paid on government bonds and other investments into which banks can put their funds. With the Improvement of business, the state banking authorities could change this limitation overnight Copyright.—WNO Servloo. I BRISBANE THIS WEEK The Bonus at Last? A Little on Account Teagle Will Sell Oil The Oceans Are Closer Washington reports “payment of the $3,000,000,000 soldiers’ bonus be Arthur Brisbane fore the end of the next session Is virtually as sured.” Good news for sol diers. Do you sup pose the govern ment will print more of Its “In flation bonds,” and Insist on paying Interest on Its own money instead of print ing new money for the bonus, or do you believe there must be some limits to stu pidity? The League of Nations wants us to ‘‘clarify our position.” It would be made clear if the President would write to the League of Nations: ‘‘Our position is this: We are at tending to our business, and advise you to do the same. Also, what about a little cash on account of $10,000,000,000 you owe us on the last war?” Walter Teagle, head of the Stand ard Oil of New Jersey, disposes sen sibly of the suggestion that all Americans should refuse to sell oil to Italy. He says Standard Oil Is not In the League of Nations and he will continue selling oil through his Italian subsidiary. This Is news, Important especially to California, where real estate pros perity grows with improved trans continental trips. The Sffnta Fe railroad, with a die sel engine, hauling nine steel cars and using 3,600 horsepower, has cut 15 hours from the running time be tween Los Angeles and Chicago. Queer things happen in Ethiopia. The Daily Express says former War .Minister Fitowrary Berru, in dis grace with the emperor because he spent too much money, walked, as a penitent, into the presence of the emperor, carrying on his back a heavy grindstone, and kneeled down in sign of submission. The emperor rolled the stone off his back, meaning forgiveness, and Fit owrary Berru is off spending money again. Some of our baked potato and “little pig” ministers might try that. You may see a new kind of “Olympic game” with long-dis tance runners wearing gas masks. In future wars soldiers will wear masks and civilians will wear them. Ability to run in gas masks will be Important. Russia knows that, and “train ing for the next war” eight men and women of the Osoaviakhim (so ciety for aviation and chemical de fense) marched 31 miles in gas masks in 10 hours 4" minutes, a world record. - General Smuts, minister of justice In England’s Union of South Africa, says: “Annexation of Ethiopia or its domination by a great European power will mean training one of the biggest, most dangerous black armies the world has ever seen.” General Smuts worries about the conquering power of such a gigan tic “black army” unnecessarily. One pale chemist inventing n bet ter poison gas, or more destructive explosives, and a few iirst-class pilots could take care of any “black army” that Ethiopia might send forth. The American Federation of La bor asks American athletes not to attend the 1930 Olympic games, if they are held in Germany. As a reason for “banning German Olym pics,” the federation says Hitler is crushing labor unions “with blood and fire.” There is a better reason for not holding the 1930 Olympics in Ger many. The chief value of sport is in the fact that manly exercise is sup posed, primarily, to develop and In spire courage. The spectacle of 00,000,000 tier mans cruelly persecuting and sup pressing (500,000 German .Feus is not exactly a picture of courage. President Roosevelt has said that he Intends to keep out of European complications, lie will not let En rope complicate our foreign busi ness, making it impossible for Amer ican concerns to operate merely to oblige European competitors. In any case our European friends should at least start paying the ten thousand million dollars they bor rowed before asking the United States to lose more money for their sweet sake. Dr. C. II.

Don't Entrust Your Own or Your Family's Well - Being to Unknown Preparations BEFORE you take any prepara tion you don’t know all about, for the relief of headaches; or the pains of rheumatism, neuritis or neuralgia, ask your doctor what he thinks about it — in comparison with Genuine Bayer Aspirin. We say this because, before the discovery of Bayer Aspirin, most so-called “pain” remedies were ad vised against by physicians as being bad for the stomacn; or, often, for the heart. And the discovery of Bayer Aspirin largely changed medical practice. Countless thousands of people who have taken Bayer Aspirin year in and out without ill effect, nave proved that the medical findings about its safety were correct. Remember this: Genuine Bayer Aspirin is rated among the fastest methods yet discovered for the relief of headaches and all common pains . .. and safe for the average person to take regularly. You can get real Bayer Aspirin at any drug store — simply by never asking for it by the name “aspirin” alone, but always saying BAYER ASPIRIN when you buy.
