Ask Him 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 stomach; 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.

At dr og-rtores /aTTTrararj«r7^j kVa iJjLLaJlJXa>J SEEN and HEARD arbund the NATIONAL CAPITAL oy Carter Field ^ Washington.—Lurking In the minds of a gronp of very prominent conservative Democrats, men who secretly agree with the views of John W. Davis and other Liberty League directors, but who have not and will not come out Into the open. Is a contingency with respect to the Republican party which has re ceived little. If any, attention. What they are afraid of is that the Republican party will nominate no one now prominently mentioned for the place, but some radical fig ure such as Senator (Jerald R. Nye of North Dakota. One such Demo crat, who has been one of the heav iest contributors to Democratic cam paign funds for a generation, told the writer that Nye wns Ills chief fear. “If the Republicans nominate any fairly conservative candidate, riot too objectionable,” he said. *1 will preserve my party regularity. I will even contribute, say. $1,000 to (he campaign fund. Rut down In my heart I will hope the Republican wins. Rut If the Republicans nomi nate a man like Nye, every ounce of force I can bring to bear will he put behind the re-election of Roose velt, little as I agree with his pol icies.” I Ills particular Democrat was m thuslastlcally for the Roosevelt anil Oarner ticket In 1932—after the con vention. He particularly approved the Democratic platform as adopted at Chicago. But economically he agrees with Davis and Al Smith, with Glass of Virginia and Tydlngs of Maryland. Now the importance of all this Is not this man's views, nor the effect of his active support or contribu tions. Actually the Democrats will not have any real trouble getting all the money they want. The as sured success of the Jackson day dinners, to he held all over the coun try, Is a sufficient demonstration of this. And there are always plenty of rich men eager to Ingratiate themselves with the President of the United States—or for that mat ter with a man who has a good chance of becoming President. There Is not only the possibility of appointments In the diplomatic serv ice. so glltterlngly attractive to many rich men’s wives, but the mere prestige of being Invited to an occasional White House dinner Is worth a lot to a great many rich families. <’nlvln Coolldge understood tlds well. On one occasion, on one ot the famous week end trips on the Mayflower, which rarely extended more than the six miles down the Potomac river to Alexandria, he spoke to a guest Just before retiring. “Thought you might want to write to some of your friends," he said, handing his guest a handful of envelopes and writing paper em bossed with the name “U. S. S. May flower" and the Presidential seal. That sort of reflected glory Is worth a mint to more people than one might hurriedly suppose. The really Interesting thing about this fear felt by some rich and con servatlve Democrats Is that they are usually pretty well Informed. They keep their eyes on the situation, and their ears close to the ground. Silverites Disappointed None of the groups ami blocs In house anil senate feel so cheated as they return to Washington as the sliver ndvocntes, particularly those among them who were more inter ested In the Inflation aspect of the "cause” than the expected benefits to the sliver miners. The answer to the last Is quite simple. In the tlrst place, there are practically no silver miners, as such. Practically all the silver produced In the United Stutes Is a by-product of lead. zinc, copper or some other metal. Further, the Treasury de partment has heeu and still Is pay ing a high price for newly mlneo silver. Right at the moment It Is around 50 per cent more than the world price, which means that the treasury is losing nearly 25 cents an ounce on every ounce It buys. It could buy the white metal Just that much cheaper on the world market. Rut the silver men in congress feel cheated two ways. In the first place, they are tremendously dis appointed at the net results of the silver policy as worked out by Presi dent Roosevelt and Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau In the sec ond place, they feel that Morgen thau purposely 'let them down"— that he did not want the policy writ ten Into law, and that he has gotten around actually carrying It out. One very shrewd speculator, very close to most of the silver senators has advised some of them that. In his opinion. If the secretary of the treus ury. even at this late day, should simply take all the silver offered in the world markets for a brief time, he would absorb all the ‘float Ing supply." This sj>eeulator believes that the floating supply Is not more than sixty million ounces at the outside But the way to it, If the desire to put the price up is real, he insists Is simply to stand there and take all that Is offered as long as It Is around the present price. Which. In cidentally. is Just under the price at which the government comman deered all silver held In this country —50 cents an ounce. This specula tor thinks such a stand would have the effect of reconvinelng the world that this country was going to do something about silver, which be lief was what put the price up above 70 cents, while the collapse of that belief was what dropped It back to below 50 cents. Hut the real, starry-eyed silver boys are those who think in terms of blmetallsm. and $1.29 an ounce, or more than $2 If you figure gold devaluation and the 10 to 1 ratio. A fight will he made for bimetal ism at this session of congress. There Is no doubt about that. But It Is highly doubtful If the fight gets very far. For one thing the sllver Ites will not have so much co-op eratlon from the infiatlonal group ns they did when they forced Roose velt and Morgenthau to accept the sliver law. For il was only because It was the only way to avoid hav ing a straight-out printing press money measure Jammed down Its throat that the administration ac cepted the sliver bill In the first place. Tin? considerable improvement in business has taken some of the steam out of the Inflationists. Oth ers who believe Implicit}’ In Infla tion have come to believe that there is no use lighting for It right now, because it is on the way anyhow! They figure thnt the national, debt will go on mounting, further devaluation of the dollar will be the only way out for tlie govern ment after a few years, and then Inflation will he here. So they think it is easier to wait until the train comes along than to run toward it. So tlie sllverites do not know what to do. but they are mighty unhappy. Utilities Watch Court If tlie I'nlted Stutes Supreme court should declare unconstitution al the public utility holding com pany law forced through by Presi dent Roosevelt at tlie last session of congress, there is a very fair chance Indeed that the new law, to take Its place, might follow the lines of tlie compromise suggested by Wendell I,. Wlllkle, president of tlie Commonwealth and Southern corporation. If (lie Supreme court upholds tlie present law. tiiere Is not the pro verbial Chinaman’s chance that con gress will repeal tlie present sta tute. and substitute anything so mild. To put It another way. If con gress were about to write tlie pul) lie utility bill, with the President unchanged In his attitude, it would undoiiV<",Pv lie a milder bill—much milder—than tlie present one But that is a very different tiling from putting through a repeal measure and modifying the existing law. The answer to this somewhat paradoxical appearing situation is found in the difficulty of putting through any new legislation to which tlie President is opposed. If tlie law were not on tlie books, tlie President would try whip and spur to get it there, lie would then be forced to take considerably less than lie got last year. But to hope, as some utility offi cials do. that congress will substi tute a more ’’reasonable” measure at tills session show abysmal ig norance of how the wheels go 'round in Washington. It would re quire not only the tremendous push necessary to get the measure through both house and senate, but the mustering, after the President's certain veto, of a two-thirds ma jority in each house. Which Is Just about unthinkable. Notwithstanding which, the Wlll kie compromise is very appealing to a great number of senators and rep resentatives. Their usual comment, of course. Is: "Why didn’t the utili ties come before congress with this sort of proposition long ago, Instead of pretending they didn’t need any regulation?” Tlie answer to that, of course, is very human. Nobody goes looking for trouble. No one openly admits lie needs to be curbed, llumuu minds don't function that way. When the blow finally fell, an 1 when the utilities, last year, realized that a law wus going through, they made their drive against the death sentence, thinking that if the evil day could be delayed, the law might be changed later. But they lost. The Willkle compromise would end governmental competition with the utilities. It would give the se curities and exchange commission authority to supervise the Issuance of holding company securities. It would subject all utilities companies to the securities exchange act. It would accept Imposition of uniform accounting systems for all utility companies leaving the final word as to how accounts should be kept to the securities commission. Striking at one of the most com plained of abuses by holding com panies. It would regulate churges made against operating compauies for management ami services by holding companies, thus eliminating the milking of operating companies and maintenance of high rates to consumers because of unnecessarily high tees to the parent companies. Further, It would set up Interstate [lower bourds. and would permit the fixing of rates on interstate business by these boards whenever a state utility commission should so re quest Copyright —WNU Service - BRISBANE THIS WEEK AAA Lb No More Who Will Pay Now? Only 11 Can Run Fast The State of the Union The Supreme court decision re jecting AAA, the “agricultural ad justment a c t,” affects every American direct ly. Issued Just as the President announced h I s program to bal a n c e the na tional budget within one thou sand million dol lars, the decision upsets that ad ministration pro gram. L_mTa flt-- Men with large i ncomes, of whom Arthur Ilrlalinnr few 8urvive, may worry, for the decision takes from the government seven hundred mil lion a year of processing taxes thej will have to be made good el*e where. The manufacturers’, ot processing, tax, handed along to the little people, was, In reality, a sales tux on life's necessities—cotton cloth, flour and meat. The question is. Who will pro vide cash promised the farmers, since the Supreme court will not sanction the sales tax, disguised as a “pross” tax? Whence will come the hundreds | of millions the government owes to farmers under its AAA promises and has not yet paid? The farmers did their part, the government could hardly fall to do Its part by paying. International News Service sports department shows that out of about 1,8<X),000,000 human beings on earth only 11 are known that can run a mile nt really high speed. Of these not more than four have any chance of beating an Individual named Glenn Cunningham of Kansas. You would think that the billion unknown uncounted among the so called “backward races,” many with native energy, free of civilization’s handicaps, could easily be trained to bent the 11 fast ones, but it is not probable. The President's address “on the state of the Union” was, like nearly all Presidential speeches, an address on the state of the administration. Discussing danger of war, if it Is true that “85 or 90 per cent of all the people in the world are con tent with the territorial limits of their respective nations," that would leave only 10 or 15 per cent of the aggressive type. Lloyd George, playing a little poli tics with his friend Prime Minister Baldwin, exults in the noble moral uprising of the British, rejecting the terrible, immoral plan to di vide Ethiopia and placate Italy. Something “without precedent," Lloyd George calls it. Where England is concerned, "di viding up” is, indeed, almost with out precedent. England’s custom as a rule is to swallow things whole, ns she did with the Transvaal, In dia, and other territories that have kept her old fighting flag always In the sunshine. The Methodist Episcopal church Is proud to announce in Nashville, Tenn., that it begins 1936 with 2,783,269 regularly enrolled mem bers, an increase over the preceding year of 31,298, with 21,361 baptized infants not Included. This is the reply of the Methodist Episcopal ians to the "high church" Episco palians of the English church that suggests giving up Protestantism al together as a failure. Children will learn with pleasure that it is not necessary to eat spin ach unless you like It. Other veg etables take the place of spinach with a menacing person called “Pop Eye.” The government, through WPA, will print a book on what to eat and how to eat it. One well known New York physician ventures the opinion that spinach contains an ob jectionable amount of "vegetable uric acid." A twenty-year-old Poughkeepsie girl "from the other side of the track," working for $6 a week, was Invited by a young man to get Into Ills automobile. "Want to go some where for a drink, baby?" was the Invitation formula. In the morning the unfortunate girl was found In the man's car In a garage, dead, horribly mistreated and beaten to death. The excuse for mentioning so dreadful a crime Is that It ought to warn all girls foolish enough to accept Invitations from unknown men. New Jersey says the execution of Hauptmann, close at hand, will be no theatrical show. No woman re^ porter will be allowed to witness Hauptmann's death, an excellent Idea, although some young ladles will not think so. Female report ers. let us hope, will have babies later on. Watching a miserable creature writhing in the electric chair would not be good for the babies. • KIds Features Syndicate, lac. WNU Service. Skeletons in Armor Suits Are Found on Battle Site Skeletons fully arrayed In medieval armor have been found In excava tions In the vicinity of Venice, all in a perfect state of preservation. Work ers engaged on excavations for the new great canal which is under con struction in the picturesque district surrounding Stra, came across what undoubtedly must have been the scene of a great battle In the days of the ancient Venetian republic. One of the many skeletons in ar mor was found to have a sword still between the rlhs. Presumably the man fell in battle and has lain undis turbed all these centuries. Quanti ties of ancient weapons and armor also were found, together with beau tifully modeled vases which, when the centuries old dirt had been washed away, were found to be puint ed by hand with designs and figures, the colors being perfectly preserved.

Use a good liquid laxative, and aid Nature to restore clocklike regularity without strain or ill effect. A liquid can always be taken in gradually reduced doses. Reduced dosage is the real secret of relief from constipation. Ask a doctor about druggist how very pop weirs Syrup Pepsin has become. It gives the right kind of help, and right amount ofnelp. Taking a little less each time, gives the bowels a chance to act of their own accord, until they are moving regularly and thoroughly without any help at all.

LONDON NAVAL CONFERENCE Hy NORMAN H. DAVIS /'~\N BEHALF of my government I declare emphatically that the United States will not take the In itiative In naval competition. We want no naval increase. We want limitation and reduction. Our pres ent building program, which is essen tially one of replacement, is con sistent with this desire. For ten years we ceased naval construction. Under our present plans, the strengths allotted to us by the Lon don treaty as of the end of 1936 will not be attained until 1942. We have no wish to exceed those treaty limits. I may say also that the United States, which is now definitely on the way to recovery from the severe depression through which it has beta going, and from which no nation has escaped, is most anxious to devote its energies and material resources to the upbuilding of the country. BALANCING AGRICULTURE nr PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT WE SEEK to balance agriculture and we have made great strides. But in balancing agriculture we know that it must be in balance not alone with itself but with industry and business as well—that the pro ducing public must give considera tion to the consuming public. Year by year as we go on, many details, many problems, will need to be analyzed and solved. Agriculture and industry and business are in overwhelming majorities co-operating for a common justice as never before. In these present days we have seen and are seeing, not a rebirth of material prosperity alone; of greater significance to our national future is that spiritual reawakening, that deep er understanding that has come to our land.
