About this time his conviction be-
gan to blossom. An enterprising
reporter dug up the facts about
Walsh's dismissal. An indignant
public let out a roar and a tax
board, with a sense of decency
gave Walsh a job as secretary.
When primaries rolled around
last September, nobody In the
Trenton district even seriously
suggested anybody for the DEM
ocratic nomination for congress
but AL Walsh.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Stir
red by the flood of letters which
have been coming to the Senate
committee on judiciary since pub
licity was given to the fact that
this committee has been holding
up the prison contract labor bill
passed by the House, the commit
tee has resorted to the usual ex-
pedient for delaying and defeat
ing legislation and has announced
a series of hearings" on the bill.
When nothing else will suffice
to kill legislation, it is always in
order to call in a lot of people to
talk. 1t might be in order to ask
why the same information which
impelled the House to pass the
bill is not sufficient to convince
the Senate of its merits.
Those interested in prison re-
form will now do we'll to write
some more letters protesting
against further hearings and de-
handing a report from the COM
mittce and a vote in the Senate.
The country is entitled to a vote
on every important piece of legis-
lation. The one thing to be
avoided is killing legislation In
committees.

What Makes a Woman?

One hundred and twenty pounds,
more or less, of bone and muscle
don't make a woman. It's a good
foundation. Put into 1t health and
strength and she may rule a king

trio Bitters give her. Thousands
bless them for overcoming faint
Ing and dizzy spells and for dis
