ASKS CONGRESS TO SPEED UP.

President Anxious That Congress
Work and Adjourn in June.
Observation-Disclosures for greater
congressional activity on the Admin.
~istration legislative program receiv-
ed new impetus when President Will
son asked Majority Leader Kitchin to
speed up" work on the House side Of
the Capitol and later discussed the
subject with other leaders Of both
houses. The President is anxious that
Congress finish it's work and adjourn
in June before the political conven-
tions.
The outstanding features of the leg
islative program for the next few
months, as Mr.. Kitchin forsees thehm,
are:
A tariff commission bill will be re-
ported by the Ways and Means Com
mittee.
No revenue measure is likely to be
reported until after the military and
naval committees bring in their bills.
This may be weeks or months.
No waterways projects and no new
public building bills will be consider
ed.
An anti-dumping clause for the
tariff law may be reported later.
In addition the shipping bill ard
the Philippine bill are expected by
other congressional leaders to attract
much attention.

Look and Feel
Clean, Sweet and
Fresh Every Day
Drink a glass Of real hot water
before breakfast to wash
out poisons.

Life is not merely to live, but to
live we'll, eat we'll, digest well, work
we'll, sleep we'll, look we'll. What. a
glorious condition to attain, and yet
how very easy it is if n will only
adopt the morning inside bath.
Folks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise, split
ting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul
tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach,
can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy
by opening the sluices Of the system
each morning and flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
we'll, should, each morning, before
breakfast, drink a glass Of real hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the en-
tire alimentary tract before putting
more food into the stomach. The &C
ton of hot water and limestone phos-
phate on an empty stomach is wonder
fully invigorating. 1t cleans out all the
Soul lamentations, gases, waste and
acidity and gives n a splendid ap-
petite for breakfast. While you are
enjoying your breakfast the water and
phosphate is quietly extracting a large
volume of water from the blood and
getting ready for a thorough flushing
of all the inside organs.
The millions of people who are both
cred with constipation, bilious spells,
stomach trouble, rheumatism; others
who have sallow skins, blood disor-
ders and sickly compilations are urged
to get a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from any store that handles
drugs which will cost very little, but
is sufficient to make anyone a pro-
nounced crank on the subject of in.
ternal sanitation.-Adv.

PRESIDENT WRITES
To HOUSE LEADER
HAS CHANGED HIS MIND BE-
CAUSE CIRCUMSTANCES HAVE
CHANGED.
URGING new TARIFF BODY
However There is No Change N His
Attitude Toward Protection Cues
tion.-DeaI Only With Facts.

Washington. - President Wilson
sent a letter to Chairman Kitchin of
the House Ways and Means Commit
tee explaining why he had withdrawn
his opposition to a tariff commission
and now was urging the creation of
such a body by Congress. He wrote
frankly hat he had changed his mind
because "all the circumstances of the
world had changed"
Declaring that he had mo thought
whatever of a change in attitude to-
ward the so-called protection ques-
ton" the President said the proposed
commission would have nothing to do
with theories of policy but would be
charged only with the duty of seeking
facts to guide Congress in legislation.
In another letter to Mr.. Kitchin he
had set forth fully his ideas Of what a
traiff commission should be and urged
that the Ways and Means committee
consider the matter Immediately. He
favored a wholly non-partisan, expert
organization.
Il have changed my mind" said
the letter, because all the circum-
stances of the world have changed
and it seems to me that in view Of
the extraordinary and f~ar-reaching
changes which the European war has
brought about it is absolutely neces-
sary that we should have a compe-
tent instrument of inquiry along the
whole line of the many questions
which affect our foreign commerce.
81 have had in this change of mind
no thought whaever of a change Of
attitude towards the socalled protec-
ton question. That is neither here
nor there.
A commission such as I have sug-
gested would have nothing to do with
theories of policy. They would deal
only with facts and the facts which
they would seek ought to he the act
ual facts of industry and of the ON
ditions of economic exchange prevail
ing in the world, so that legislation Of
every kind hiatt touched these matters
might be guided by the circumstances
disclosed in its inquiries.

MANN SPEAKS FOR DEFENSE.
Heartily AppIauded by Both Sides O
Chamber,

Chamber.
Observation-Disclosures, nOn.par-
tisan support of military preparedness
wa urged by Minority Leader Mann in
a ringing speech on the floor of the
house. He was heartily and repeated
ly applauded by both sides of the
chamber.
While it has peen understood that
most of the Republicans favored army
and navy increases none of their
leaders had spoken on the subject.
Consequently, coming as it did on the
eve of the presidents departure on a
preparedness speaking tour, Mann's
address was regarded as particularly
significant. He remarked himself tina,
he always had been known es a
small army and navy man.
Representative Mann declared that
he saw no immediate danger of war
and hoped that peace might prevail,
but hat danger of the United States
being drawn into the present conflict
or n that might result from it was
too great to be d~isregarded.
II have much more fear in the
end of war with England than I have
of war with Germany" he said. That
was his only comment on this phase
of his subject. Later he declined to
elaborate on his remark.

PRESIDENT WILL
URGE COMMISSION
WANTS TARIFF COMMISSION
WITH BROAD POWER TO IN
VESTlGATE TARIFF DUTIES.
SEEKS I'M MEDIATE ACTION
Conferred With Majority Leader
kitchin and Others-ShouId Be
Non-Partisan.

Washington. - Announcement has
been made that President Wilson ia
vors the creation of an independent,
non-partisan tariff commission, with
broad powers to investigate tariff du-
ties, the relations between industries
at home and abroad and the entire ia
riff and commercial machinery of the
world.
The president discussed his plan at
length with Representative Kitchin,
chairman of the house ways and
means committee, and asked that the
committee consider it Immediately
with the view of getting action during
the present session of Congress. Also
he laid the matter before Senators
Simmons, chairman of the senate f.
nance committee. Later he may ad-
dress congress on the subject, al
able.
Although the president previously
has taken the position that the powers
of a tariff commission already are
held by existing government bureaus
he told Mr.. Kitchin he felt justified
in pressing for the creation of a sepa-
rate commission at this time because
of unusual International conditions
and on account of the interest the
United States will have in commercial
adjustments after the present up
heayal.
Representative Kitchin said he
thought the Federal Trade Commits
sion should be clothed with whatever
additional powers might be necessary
but that he believed a majority of
the ways and means committee IA
vored a new Independent body. The
president made it plain he did not
think the proposed commission should
be established with the view of up
holding or criticising any particular
tariff policy but should be entirely
non-partisan, and capable of gather
ing facts without any political basis.

The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys is

kidneys are diseased, arterial tension
is increased and the heart functions
