Senator Chamberlain
Begins Drafting
Defense Measures

Washington, Nov. Arrange
ments were made today by Senator
Chamberlain, chairman of the Sen
ate military affairs committee to be-
gin drafting Immediately the series
of bills which will be introduced at
the opening of Congress to carry
out the army's part of the admins
tration's national defense program.
The senator had a conference with
Secretary Garrison, VINO promised
that officials of the war department
would give every possible aid in
preparing the measures.
Chairman Hay OF the House mill
tary affairs committee Is expected to
join Senator Chamberlain later and
identical bills carrying out the pro-
gram probably will be introduced ST.
simultaneously in both houses.
II Is probable that there will be
at least three bills, exclusive Of the
appropriation measures, which will
originate in the House as required
by the constitution. One will pro-
vide for the proposed increases in
the regular army, specifying the ad-
ditional help needed for each arm
of the service, another will authorize
the organization Of the continental
army and the third will deal with
the wider recognition to be extend
ed to the national guard.
Congress will be asked, 1t was
learned today, to appropriate slo''
100000 this year for the organized
militia Of the country, or just about
double the average amount asked by
the war department for this purpose
during the last few years. The
money will go into equipment foI
the guardsmen. particularly for the
special service corps like the artil
lery, signal corps aviation. engineers
and the nike, It is understood,
The bill providing for the orsaniza
ton OF the continental army Will dis
tribute this force throughout th'
country, according to population un

SOAP is BAD
FOR THE HAIR

Soap should be used very spar
ingly, if at all, if you want to keep
your hair looking it's best. Most
soaps and prepared shampoos con-
tain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle,
and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut
oil (Which is pure and greaseless),
is cheaper and better than soap or
anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly. Simply moisten the hair
with water and rub it in. 1t makes
an abundance Of rich, creamy
lather, which rinses out easily, re-
moving every particle of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and
it leaves the scalp soft, and the
hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous,
fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut
oil at any pharmacy, and few
ounces will supply every member of
the family for months.
