Today The Truth Is Out. The President's Next Move. A Little Longer Message, plying M ach i n es, Not draft. By ARTHUR BRISBANE. V J The disgraceful truth about our aircraft situation is now exposed. General Hines, chief of staff of the United States army, admits: First, that this country is absolutely un prepared to defend itself against invasion by air; and, second, that the army has taken no steps to make the nation safe from attack. That is at least, plain, and it puts the situation up to President Cool idge, who is head of the army and navy, and responsible to the people for national safety. Can you imagine how the air de fense force would be built up if Theodore Roosevelt were president? The president is finishing a mes sage said to be one of the shortest on record. It will probably be stretched a little, following Gen eral Hine’s confession of army in competency, to make room for a few words on that subject. It is, thanks to Brigadier Gen eral Mitchell and his courageous truth telling in the face of threats from higher-ups, that tho people know the truth. And now, accord ing to a predispatch from Charles Parmer in Washington, he is to have his choice of resigning from the army or accepting reduced rank of colonel, including probable trans fer from Washington to some ob scure post. The president and the people will be interested to know what Weeks has been doing, and what kind of a secretary of war he thinks this na tion needs. Unless he has some belter excuse than ignorance or in difference, there ought to be a good job waiting for him in some com fortable banker's and broker’s of fice. — What, by the way. was the idea of hearing General Hines in secret session? Is the public not entitled to know the state of national de fense? Asia and Europe know all about it, you may be sure. The condition of this country as regards aircraft defense, and the “secrecy” part of it, recall the sad case of Heloise, after Adelard, her tutor, had her in charge for a little while. Everybody in Paris knew the truth, except her innocent old un cle, the Canon Fulbert. Everybody in the world has long known the truth about our national lack of de fense, except possibly innocent old Uncle Sam. Even he knows now, and the pres ident knows, from official souces, from the army’s chief of staff, what you have been reading here for many months. The next question is what, if anything, will be done about it? Shall we wait, and see, and save, and make up our minds when the p*40br9\ bombs begin dropping? Or shall we perhaps set the obi gang of aircraft grafters and incom petents to work? The president is responsible to the people for enough fighting air planes of the kind that will fly and fight, not merely the kind produced by incompetency and graft last time! What the president demands, con gress will do. National thanks are due to the congressional committee that has dragged out the truth from our ridiculous so-called army defenders. In the first six months of last year immigration from Italy ex ceeded 200,000. A gain of 20,000 over the same period of 1923. But for our stupid and harmful immigration laws nearly all of those Italian workers would have come to the United States. Here every worker would have contributed to the national prosperity $10 for every dollar that he earned. Such a group of Italians, bringing here the training, industry and intelli gence of the Italian civilization, could have been absorbed in one corner of the states of Florida or California alone, and would have added billions to the wealth of either state. Of all modern asi ninity, the climax came in shutting out what we most need, men and women, ambitious, willing to work. Marcus Garvey, head of the Uni AnVKRTlHKMKNT. AIM KKTIMKMKNT.

Three thousand colored men paid 50 cents apiece to see the ship on one Sunday. Since then Garvey has been locked up. Travelers on Pullman cars will hope that Garvey, when he comes out, will not take all the colored people to Africa with hint. No “white help” could be found to do that Pullman sleeping car work as well as the colored porters’ do it. Fortunately, Garvey’s boat trav els slowly, carrying only a few hundred passengers, and the jour ney to Liberia is long. He would not be able in his lifetime to take away the colored people that this country needs. Garvey planned to have his ship run by white officers commanding a negro crew, That seemed an un fortunate confession. The National Association of Manufacturers, opposing the con stitutional amendment to prevent child labor, remarks that the na tion has Nothing to do with child labor, and the amendment is "so cialistic.” Since the future of the nation depends on the welfare of children and upon nothing else, the nation ought at least to have as much to say about child preservation as it has about water conservation. As for “socialism,” what would some of the soft, flabby, wheezy members of the Manufacturers’ as sociation between 60 and 70 years of age say if they were forced to work long hours in mines or fac tories? They would say: “This is an outrage, I am not fit for such work.” They are just ns fit as are children between 7 and 12 years of age.

The High Church of England, or part of it, feels humiliated, because it has not been able to create saints i»f its own. Some satisfaction, but not enough, is found in the great number of saints that Great Britain has contributed to the bona fide list of the Roman Catholic church. There is disappointment because the British church can’t find a way to make a saint of Florence Night ingale and supply hfr with a halo. The answer to that Is that Florence Nightingale is a saint already, and needs no halo. (I’opyright, ^1925.)

Nash Sales in Six Months Period Break All Reeordsj I \«‘iinos of Demand in AJI Sections of Country Inter esling. Sal<‘s Manager Declares. By K. H. MctWRTV. (Mr. McCarty U general mIpn mini tiger of (lie NhmIi Motor* «'«ini|»Hii> nml In In , Mfimlm In attend (lie automobile nIiow nml I In ennfer willt Hun T. Vrliwma nml other j nffir hIh of the \H*I»-Yrle*emii Auto rom nnny.) The remarkable character of the de mand throughout the country for the Nash advanced six and special six models has shattered record after rec ord since August 1, the date of their Introduction. Total sales of Nash cars for the last six months of 1,924 exceed ed the same period of 1923 by 3.000 cars. And the second half of 1923 was the largest fall period In Nash history. Even the first half of last year, with its' active spring demand, was eclipsed by the record breaking last, six months. An interesting phase of the situa tion has been the evenness of the de mand all over the country. Former high sales marks were tied or pushed into the discard in nearly every terri tory and the newer Nash dealers, as well as the older ones, alike have met with a public acceptance of the Nash product that has proved beyond any thing in their experience. As a climax to this brilliant six months period, Dot ember shipments rose to a higher peak* than for any former December. And as an indica tion that the new Nash models were received as enthusiastically abroad. September, October and November were the biggest three export months in Nash history. With trustworthy reports from all sources indicating a corning period of great prosperity and extreme business activity, we can look forward to see ing Nash sales take an added momen tum during this coming year and sweep well beyond the record break ing toals of 1924. As a matter of fact, conditions are decidedly more favor able now than those that confronted us when the new models were intro duced. In the first place, the new advanced six and special six series are now firmly established in the minds of the public as cars of exceptional value. Production facilities have been notably increased by the installation of considerable machinery and new plant extensions. And our selling or ganization has been strengthened very greatly in the last five months by the addition of more than 100 good dealers. Couple these promising facts with the Nash announcement made of the two new model#—one. the re markably low priced advanced six se dan; the other the beautiful Victoria, also on the advanced six chassis, and the future takes on an extremely bright aspect. Considering every Indication that Influences business, it is safe nay that Nash motors has never fared a new year with such a favorable and promising combination of conditions as that which confronts the organlza tlon at the present time.

Indigestion and practically all forms of stomach trouble, say medical authorities, are due nine times out of ten to an excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. Ihronic "acid stomach" is * xceedingly dan gerous and sufferers should do either one of two things. Either they can go on a limited and often disagreeable diet, avoiding foods that disagree with them, that iiritate the stom ach and lead to excess acid secretion or they can eat as they please in reason and make it a practice to counteract the effect of the harmful acid and prevent the forma tion of ga*. sourness or premature fer mentation by the use of a little Bisurated Magnesia at their meal*. There is probably bo better, safer or more reliable stomach antiacid than Bra urated Magnesia and it it widely used for this purpose. It has no direct action on frhe stomach and is not a digestent. But a teaspoonful of the powder or a couple of five grain tablets taken in a little water with the food will neutralize the excess' acidity which may be present and prevent its further formation. This remove* the whole cause of the trouble and the meal digests naturally and healthfully wilhout need of pepsin pilla or artificial digestenti. Get a few ounces of Hisurated Magnesia from any reliable druggist. Ask for either powder or tablet*. It never come* a* a liquid, milk or citrate and in the *bisurated form i* not a laxative. Try this plan and eat what you want at your next meal and see if this isn't the best advice you ever had on "what to eat." -~^riSi»ar.r.rT t ." Whistling Solo—Sale-led Gall Html! Jack Keicher, piano.
