INTERIOR OF UNITED STATES SENATE CHAMBER

Our nation is passing through a great
political crisis. Whether our national poll
icy Is to be one of territorial expansion.
or whether we are to remain aloof from
international complications. Is the SUI
preme question confronting our Congress.
The attention of the world is directed to-
ward US. The deliberations of our Con-
gress have come to be OF international
Importance.
But this consideration affects only our
external welfare. Our domestic problems
are not one bit less important. We have
serious questions before us that relate
only to home interests. Chief among them
is the health of our people. Catarrh has
already become a national curse. Its raw
ages extend from ocean to ocean. More
than one-half OF the people are affected
b, il, Ii has become such serious mat
ter that II has passed the boundaries OF
tie medical profession and become a ma
tioaai question. Senator's are talking
about IL: Congressman are discussing 1t.
I,cy are not only considering the extent
and chronic nature OF the disease. .dt
he feasibility Of finding q national refine
