BRANDElS BELIEVES
MEASURE WEAK,
Boston Man Would Like to See
Railroads Kept Out of Other
Business.
(By Associated Prcss)

Washington, June ~. Criticism of
the house bill giving the interstate.
commerce commission SUPERVISORY
powers over the issue Of railroad Sc
curitieS was voiced today before the
senate Interstate commerce commit
tee by Louis ID. Brandeis. Of Boston
HIS views were not al all In accord
with those expressed previously by
members of the commission which to u
large degree has approved the house
bill.
Mr.. BrandeiS has been closely con
Hcctcd with the commission as counsel
III important cases and has been one
OF the prominent figures in legislation
of tlii:; sort for several years
The house bill would give the COM
mission the power to approve security
issues. but would not prohibit speciti-
cally any particular issue Mr.. Bran
deis proposed TO prohibit railroads en-
gaEinE In any business other than that
Of carriers aud forbid them to issue
Gny sccui tiles except for the better
ment or extension of railroad proper
ty. This provision. ne urged to curb
the desire of railroads to go into coal
mining. hotel and other businesses. not
purely that Of carriers
His second suggestion was that no
railroad should be allowed to acquire
stock or interest in any railroad, ship
or boat line, trolley line. or In any
corporation owning or controlling "cv-
tn for tho purpose Of extending it's
railroad system. without the prior ap-
proval OF the commission and then
only to the extent and in the manner
approved by the commission" He al
so proposed publicity for issues of Sc
curitics. Mr., Brandeis offered an
amendment TO the House bill incor-
porating these suggestions.
Members Of the committee tonight
said they probably would change the
house provision granting supervisory
powers 10 the commission.

them are English speaking. :.
The rescue work progressed rapidly

The candidates today principally
devoted their time to discussing the
necessity for developing the common

forcement OF the statutes. denounced

and commented on prohibition and
compulsory education.
Marked lack OF interest was shown
by the three hundred Berkley county
voters present at tho gathering here.
Three candidates for governor, and
two others were absent.
Mendel I. Smith, gubernational as
pirant. regretted the establishment of
the confederate veterans home at CO.
lumbia, believing that the counties
could better care for them. He was
presented with bunch Of flowers by
Miss Unita Rfttenberg, the first Civ

by candidates for governor to reach
a compromise with the other aspir-
ants whereby they can open the meet

1t Is probable that the candidates
for governor will be divided. one party
to open and one to close the meeting.

SEVERE BRONCHIAL COUGH
Doctors Feared Lung Trouble,
Restored to Health by VinoL

The medical profession does not be-
lieve that lung troubles are inherited,
but a person may inherit a weakness
Or tendency to them.
Mrs. Kate Hickman, Springfield,
Ohio, says: "a few years ago l was
In a very bad rundown condition, and
the physician told me l had consump-
ton. l tried another physician, and
he told me had ulcers on my right
lung. l quit the physicians and
started on 'VinoL' Today I am
perfectly healthy, and that Is why
recommend 'VinoP."
Vinol soothes and heals the infam-
ed surfaces and allays the cough,
Vinol creates an appetite, strengthens
the digestive organs and gives the
patient strength to throw off in
cipient pulmonary diseases.
Try a bottle of Vinol with the I'M
derstanding that your money will be
returned If 1t does not help you.
P. S.-For any skin trouble try our
Saxo Salve. We guarantee it.
