HURLEY SAYS AMERICA
FACES TRADE CRISIS
Federal Commission Chairman Fears
Results When War Ends.

1t is estimated that 90 per cent of the
manufacturers of the United States are
pricing their goods arbitrarily" says Ed
ward ". Hurley. chairman Of the Federal
Trade Commission. in a book Just pub
lished by Doubleday. Page & Co. THE
goods are either priced upon a basis that
will sell them as soon as they have been
manufactured, or upon a basis of what
their competitors are charging"
Mr.. Hurley. who asks that the express
siOns contained in his book be accepted
as his private opinions only, then goes
on to show that there are forces at work
which. as soon as the European nations
are re-established on a peace basis, will
rapidly eliminate those business men who
have not learned how to keep accurate
cost systems and to fix prices at the low
est possible point.
According to the author, the nations
At war are likely to rise to the top Of the
business world unless the nations at peace
wake up. He says:
We are now prosperous, but unless this
I,eriod of prosperity is made a time for
reorganizing the whole fabric Of our
business system. we shall suffer seri-
ously in competition with European ma
tions when they are again upon their
normal business footing"

GLASS OF SALTS
CLEANS KIDNEYS
If Your Back Is Aching or Bladder
Bothers. Drink Lots of Water
and Eat Less Meat.

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore, don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with a
lot Of drugs that excite the 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 re-
moves the bodys urinous waste and
stimulates them to their normal activ-
ity. The function of the kidneys is to
filter the blood. In "a hours they strain
from it 500 grains of acid and waste,
80 we can readily understand the vital
importance of keeping the kidneys
active.
Drink lots OF water-you can't drink
too much; also get from any pharma-
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take . tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast each morning
for a few days and your kidneys 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 and
stimulate clogged kidneys; also to
neutraliss the acids in urine so IL no
longer Il q source OF irritation, thus
ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which EVERYONE
should take now. and then to keen their
kidneys clean and active. Try this.
also keep up the water drinking, and
no doubt you will wonder what be-
came Of your kidney trouble and back
ache.-Adv.

navy LEAGUE PLEADS
FOR SUPPLY OF Oil
Asks Defeat of Pending Measure Civ
ing Up Federal Reserves.

The Navy League of the United States
is determined to lose no time in its ef-
fort to secure for the use Of the navy
its fair share Of the fuel oil on public
lands.
The league yesterday made public q
statement which will reach a member
ship of more than 10000. asking cooper
alton Of league members and others to
urge Senators and Representatives to de-
feat the proposed bill which would turn
over to private interests oil lands that by
right should remain in government con-
troll. The statement says in part:
Our nation has decided upon q strong
naval defense policy and has voted hun
dreds Of millions for new ships. Now
comes a danger of legislation to take
from the navy its oil reserves, upon
which the fleet must depend for fuel in
the future.
AT the last session Of Congress a bill
was passed by the House which would
legalize the claims Of private individuals
and corporations to the naval oil reserve
lands set aside in 1909 and 1910. This bill,
or substitute. said to be backed by
powerful oil interests, Is about to be
taken up in the Senate.
Assistant Secretary of the Navy
Roosevelt has said that the preservation
Of this fuel oil reserve Is essential to the
very life and future existence Of the
navy.
1T Is impossible for an oil burning ship
to burn coal.
1T would be impossible to build or
operate the recently authorized battle
cruisers, scouts and destroyers II we had
to rely on coal for fuel.
THE Navy League believes that the
naval oil lands should be reserved at any
cost; and. that If private individuals
have valid claims on these lands they
should be compensated for them, but that
under no circumstances should any of
the oil be taken for private use"
