THOSE SPYING RADIO
PLANTS DIDN'T EXIST
Not One Found on Either
Coast by U. s. Sleuths,
Despite Many clips"

WASHINGTON. Dec. 24.-Despite the
most painstaking investigation agents of
the navy radio service have been unable
to fnd any evidence to Justify the oft
recurrent reports Of mysterious foreign
wireless stations at various points along
the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. This
statement figures prominently in the an
nuai report Of the bureau made public
tonight.
After describing at length the various
war to censor wireless communication the
report states:
"Ciosely connected with the subject OF
censorship and coming to the front after
the nrst Executive order was the ques-
ton Of the existence OF unauthorized
radio stations. Many reports reached
the Navy Department OF mysterious
radio stations that suddenly sprang into
being for the sole purpose OF transmit
ting messages In violation OF the radio
neutrality proclamation.
These reports reached the Depart
ment from many private sources, and
many people constituted themselves pr.
vate secret agencies and generally onered
to reveal the existence and location OF
such stations provided they were literally
rewarded financially. Many reports also
came to the State Department from rep
r~esentatives Of the different embassies
and legations, and every such report re-
ceived investigation and consideration.
such mysterious stations were n
confined TO any locality and each OF the
four corners OF the continental limits OF
the country had its ~favorite. such
stations being reported in the States OF
Washington. California. Maine and
Florida Every report was carefully IN,
vest!gated and from the reports received
and investigated Il is gratifying to report
that in not one instance was a radio
station found that did not ave a proper
legal existence. or n found that mac
the possibility Of transmission that would
reach vessels at sea over the smallest
possible distance. 49,
at 10 not intended 20 intimate tha'
possible illegal stations have not existed
but certainly non Of the very many
reported have been found. The very all
of mystery surrounding the art OF radit
transmission in the minds OF the unin'
| formed furnishes the best possible source
OF suspicion and every good citizei
deemed II mis- duty to bring to- NOTICE
anything resembling a radio station ah'
conceded its possibilities that could no
by any chance exist"

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
DRUGGIST SAYS LADIES ARE
USING RECIPE OF SAGE
TEA AND SULPHUR.

Hair that loses its color and lustre
or when II fades. turns gray, dull and
nfeless, Is caused by lack OF sui
phur in the hair. Our grandmother
made up a mixture OF Sage Tea and
Sulphur TO keep her locks dark and
beautiful, and thousands OF women
ana men who value that even color,
that beautiful dark shade OF hair
which Is 30 attractive. use only this
Old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for
a TO-cent bottle OF "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair 30 naturally. 80 evenly
that nobody can possibly tell It has
been applied. Besides, 1t takes of
dandruff, stops scalp itching and fall
ing hair. You Just dampen sponge
or soft brush with It. and draw TINS
through your hair. taking one small
strand at q time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears; but what de-
llKhts the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Is that, besides beauu-
fuIfy darkening the hair after rev
applications, II also brings back the
gloss and lustre and gives II an ap-
pearance OF abundance.

the Portland Railway, Light & Power
company, spoke generally on the sub
ject OF automobile competition with
established rail lines, particularly in
terurban lines which traverse routes
paralleling country roads. Mr. Grif-
fifth felt that the provision forbidding
rail line from operating trucks as
feeders for its principal lines would
prove a hardship because Of the high
taxes the railroads pay for upkeep OF
highways on which the competing
trucks are operating. He felt that
the license should be based rather on
the ton mile than on mere tonnage
alone.
Arthur c. Spencer. general attorney
for the O.-W. r. & n. company, de-
clared the automobile truck without
doubt is an established competitor to
the railroads. which must be consid-
cred as a new and growing factor in
transportation. He felt that II is yet
too early to tell how far 1t will go, but
he forsaw a great field with the prob
able result that railroads would have
to go out of the less than carload
business in local traffic.

GLASS OF SALTS
CLEANS KIDNEYS
R YOUR BACK HURTS OR BLAD-
DER BOTHERS YOU, DRINK
LOTS OF WATER

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore. don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with q
lot Of drugs that excite kidneys and
irritate the entire urinary tract. Keep
your kidneys clean like you keep your
bowels clean. by flushing them with
q mild, harmless salts which remov-
es the body's urinous waste and sti-
mulates them TO their normal activ-
ity. The function OF the kidneys Is
to filter the blood. In "a hours they
strain from II 500 grains OF acid and
waste so we can readily understand
the vital Importance Of keeping the
kidneys active.
Drink lots or water-you can't drink
too much: also get from any phar-
macist about four ounces Of Jad Salts
take n tablespoonful In glass of wa
ter before breakfast each morning
for a few days and your kidneqs will
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid OF grapes and lemon
Juice combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to clean
clean and stimulate clogged kidneys;
also neutralize the acids in urine so It
no longer is n source OF irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive: cannot inl-
jure; makes delightful efferves-
cent lthia-water drink which every
one should take now and then to
keep their kidneys clean and active.
Try this. also keep up the water drink
ing, and no doubt you will wonder
what became of your kidney trouble
and backache.

ON REDUCTION AFTER AN
OPEN MEETING.

SALEM, Ore, Feb. 4.-Reductior
OF the proposed / mill general road
levy to half a mill was determined
upon by the house roads and high
ways committee in an open. meeting
which was attended by nearly lOV
cod roads enthusiasts from many
parts OF the state. The tax is pro-
vided for in H. b. 24s, introduced by
Sam Brown of the roads committed
and drawn up in the main by Z. E.
Coovert OF Portland.
This is the chief road bill now be-
fore the legislature, and Is the first
general measure Of the scope 1t con-
templates. BY dividing the burden
OF load construction between the
state at large. 40 per cent and the
county, 40 per cent, and owners OF
property benefited, in proportion to
the benefit, 20 per cent, the bill pro-
poses to suggest comprehensive
plan which may be taken advantage
of at the option of property owners
OF, the various road districts created
by them.
Mr.. Coovert and Attorney Roberts
of Salem both spoke for the bill
showing how the proceeds OF the gen.
eral levy, matched by county appro-
priation afforded system of road
[ construction that would equitahly dis
tribute the cost.
1t was at the suggestion Of Cover
ror Withycombe that the reduction
from / mill to half a mill was decid'
ed upon, Mr.. Coovert voluntarily
changing the bill in the light Of the
determination of the legislature to ac-
corhplish economy
The committee made several am
ondents in II. b. 20, introduced by
Mr.. Lewis and drawn up by Thomas
b. McCusker OF Portland, who repre-
sents a number of automobile truck
concerns. This bill allows the oper-
alton of trucks on public highways
after the payment of license fees bas-
ed on the tonnage OF the vehicle. This
tonnage scale IS; Twenty dollars per
ton up to 10 tons, and $50 per ton
for trucks in excess of the 10 ton ca

The contract for filling the munich

flies the engineer when the required
depth of water has been provided.
For some months the bill has been
regarded as excessive and the num-
ber OF hours required daily to fiji
the basin has varied to marked de-
gree.
Investigation has placed the blame
on an innocent woodpecker which
whose one wire for perch and with
It's tail touching the other wire made
a short circuit so that the engineers
signal to stop pumping was controll-
ed by the woodpecker's rest rather
than the depth OF water provided
