IN persisting in their plan to pass a
ship subsidy bill at this time" said
Representative Henry T. Rainey of
Illinois, one of the best posted men
in the house on shipping and naviga-
ton laws. The leaders in charge
of the majority side of the house are
simply drunk with power. They
need only a little more rope<and the
job viii be complete
IF this ship subsidy bill is pass
ed" said Mr.. Rainey, where will
the S5,000,00O that is to be paid an
nually to the ship owners come
from? The subsidistes answer: Why,
it is not planned to take money from
the public treasury. 1t is planned to
use the profit of the foreign mail
branch of the postoffice department,
which is approximately 100000
annually
VIII Increase Postal Deficit.
This is no answer to the ques-
ton, however. The postofice de-
partment is running at a loss of ST.
100000; that was the deficit last
year. If you take the $5,0OO,OOO of
profit derived from the foreign mail
service to give to ship owners. it will
simply mean the deficit will be in
creased by that amount. Any school
boy can see that.
Now if we give $5,0O9, 900 to these
someone must foot the
bill! And the government has no
funds except those which it collects
by taxing the people
In few words, therefore, ship sub
sidy legislation is 4 law to further ex-
plot and Cypress all the people for the |
further enrichment of multi-milIion- |

Remember this about Fels-Naptha
Soap: It's not only distinct from other
soaps in name but different in action
Most soaps have the distinction with
out the difference.
But Fels-Naptha is different in this
it's a totally new way of washing.
Fels-Naptha is the only soap that will
satisfactorily wash clothes in cool or luke
warm water, without boiling or hard
rubbing.
That's the difference
No boiling Or scalding clothes to
weaken them, no back-breaking rubbing
over nauseous hot suds.
Washing done in one-half the time
with one-fourth the labor; clothes last
longer and are cleaner and sweeter than any
other method of washing will make them.
Do you prefer the different way?
You will when you We tried it.
In using Fels-Naptha Soap in Winter
or Summer, follow directions on the red
and green wrapper.
