banking and currency committee with
view to reporting a bill as soon
as possible.
The meeting was called by Chair.
man Owen, pursuant to the action of
the democratic caucus Monday night
in adopting a resolution declaring it
the sense of senate democrats that
a rural credits bill be pressed at the
earliest practicable date
The committee had before it partic-
ularly for consideration what is
known as the Hollis bill, framed by
the joint banking and currency sub
committee of the two houses last
summer. This measure provides for
the creation of rural credits system
under general control of the federal
reserve beard. An executive officer
Of the system would be known as the
farm loan commissioner, and loans
would be made on first mortgage and
first liens on farm lands, through as
sociations to be organized in the
farming sections.
Although some democrats, in the
belief that an extra session cannot
now be avoided, are urging that rural
credits legislation be taken up before
March 4 en- the ground that there is
no necessity for immediate disposi-
tion of the big supply measures. ad-
ministration leaders do not interpret
the decision of the caucus as demand
ing immediate action. The proposal,
however. will be urged at party
caucus to be held soon.

Adele Blood and "PlatoniC Par
Were Only Friends, Finds Referee

New York, JAN 20.-The possibility
of the existence OF such person as
"p,atonic pal" is given legal recog-
milton in the report of Referee Fred
erick c. Leubuscher relative to one Of
the interviewer divorce cases of Adele
Blood and julie Power, well-known ac-
tress. The referee also permits the
legal eye to recognize that 'stage folk
have a standard of conduct that is sui
generis.'
Adele Blood Davis is suing Edward
Dayis naming julie Power. Frederick
E. Bryant is suing Louise Power (Jule
PoWer), naming Edward Davis.

the home ties are loosened by long
necessary absepces.' says the ref
cree. "This often results in forma-
ton of pal attachments. In this
case it appears each had a pal Of
the opposite sex. but Miss Blood
claims the friendship with her pal
Franklyn Richie, was platonic, while
that of her husband was the reverse
Davis denies this and disputes his
wife's claim to cnly p.atonic "pal-
ship with Richie. The referee says
he fails to prove his allegation and
finds in favor Of Miss Blood.
Should the husband succeed in prov
ing his wife unfalthful when the ac-
ton is sent back to the referee and
should the supreme court sustain the
referees findings, against himself,
neither Miss Blood nor her husband
could obtain a decree of divorce in
New York as long as they live. The
reason is that under the law a divorce
cannot be granted where both husband
and wife are found guilty.

TO constipated condition.
Bloat, with its attendant mental
depression, sick headaC We, the belch-

frequently due to inaction Of the

the trouble usually disappears. The
use Of cathartics and purgatives
should be avoided, however; these
shock the system unnecessarily and,
at best, their effect is but temporary

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition Of the mucous lin
ing OF the Eustachan tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness Is
the result, and unless the infiamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out Of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
