Lincoln, March ' .i ( Spi-cial.l
'l'.ilk nl a i-omproiniic by adoption
of tlie Mel-'arland bill was heard to
ri, iy in the lower hoti.iv in discussion
ot t tie movie censorship bill.
The movie nun arc absolutely op
posed to the movie censorship bill
and are openly against the Byrutn
tiillord antidote bill which, they
claim, will restrict showing of any
thing except scenic and a fiv comic
pictures in Nebraska.
Movie men admit that some regu
lation is certain to be voted on them
by the lower house and the McFar
laml bill is looked upon as the best
of the thre'e picture regulation bills
in the committee at this time.
Can Avoid Fight.
It the backers of the movie censor
bill and the IJyrnni-t'iilTord bill will
consent to withdraw their support
from these measures it is certain the
picture men will withdraw their op
position and permit the McFarlaud
bill to go through without a fight..
It is doubtful whether the com
mittee will consent to kill the cell-
sorship hill or the Jlyrum-Gil'ford
bill and at this time it seems cer
tain that both bills will be reported
out along with the McFarlaud bill.
With the three hills on general file
the light for a compromise on the
l l. :n ...:n 1 I.
pointed out that debate on the cen
sorship bill and Byrum-GifTord bill,
which forbid murder .scenes and
crime scenes, will occupy hours of
the precious time of the bouse at
the close of the session.
Give Restriction a Trial.
The movie men and many who be
lieve, as Representative McFarlaud
does, that regulation of a less strin
gent and less expensive nature
should be given a trial, want to cut
out the fight support of the other
bills will create and give the Mc
Farlaud bill a trial.
The McFarlaud bill makes it a
misdemeanor to show -a picture
tending to demoralize youth and old
age and an amendment is proposed
providing for the issuance of an in
junction against showing the picture
until the case is tried ,-yid the verdict
rendered. It is declared that with
thi injunction hanging over then
heads exhibitors will seed up trials
and a few arrests under the proposed
statute will make them careful con
cerning the nature of pictures shown.

Telegram Wishing President

lin fought today 90 members of the
lower house who wanted to send a
telegram to President-elect Harding
at the state's expense, wishing him
good luck on -the eve of taking the
oath of office.
"I object to using the taxpayers
money for sending this, long tele
gram of political propaganda to

;i f t er the message, prepared by
Representative Randall of Omaha,
was read.
Then, he sat down and penned a
resolution against state payment of
the telegraph toll.
"All right, John, we'll pay it,"
members shouted.
They rushed in twos and threes to
the speaker's desk and each member
planked down a hard-earned dollar
before the speaker.
"I move that this resolution be
expunged from the record and the
money returned to the members,"
Representative Clark'Jeary of Lan

the gentleman from Franklin is so

"I move that the gentleman from
Franklin be given an opportunity to
apologize," Representative Rodman

From Weak, Thin Watery Blood
without ever suspecting the real cause of
their trouble Iron-starvation.
A New York Physician iavt that MORE THAN ONE-HALF THE POPULA
TION OF AMERICA PERISHES BEFORE MIDDLE AGE and thit oae of the
chief contributory cause of thii terrible watte of human life it the devitalizing wcak
neta brought on by lack of iron in the blood.
.THERE ARE J0,000,000,000,000 RED BLOOD CORPUSCLE IM TOUR
BLOOD AND EACH ONE MUST HAVE IRON.
An enormous number of people who ought to be strong, vigoroui and in the prime
of life are constantly complaining of weak nerve, headache paint across the back,
disturbed digestion, shortness of breath, a general 'Tim-down condition, melancholy,
bad memoir, etc. , when the real cause of all their tuff ring is IRON STARVATION
OF THE BLOOD.
The proof of this id. shown by the fart
that when organic iron is supplied to their
blood, that all their multitude bf
symptoms often quickly disappear and the
very men and women who were formerly
bo complaining; now become strong, healthy
and vigorous, with even dispositions and
a sunny, cheerful nature.
Nature put plenty of iron in the husks of
Krnins and the skin and peels of vetretables
and fruits to enrich your blood, but mod
ern methods of cookery throw all these
things away hence the alarming increase,
in recent years, in anaemia iron starva
tion of the blood, with all its attendant
ills.
If yon are not willing to go back to nature
then you should eat more such iron con
taining vegetables as spinach and carrots
and reinforce them by taking a little or
ganic iron from time to time. But be
sure the iron you take is orcanie iron and'
not metallic iron which people usually take.
Metallic iron is iron just as it comes from
the action of strong acids on pmall pieces !
