Been "Going 1t" Too Hard?

Lots of folks who are tired,
cross, nervous, rheumatic and
achy, are showing all the signs
of early kidney trouble without
realizing it.
This condition is too often the

fault of making one continual

work or pleasure, without TAX

Seeking the elimination Of pork"
In public buildings bills and the cor
struction OF Government structures
on a business-like basis. Congressman
George Holden Tinkham of Massa,
chusetts introduced a bill today for
the appointment OF q temporary build
ing commission to be appointed by
the President
This commission would be directed
"to investigate all the public build
ing needs and methods of the United
States, in order TO recommend q puS-
lie building policy
The bill appropriates $4,000 for
the expenses Of the commission, and
1t Is provided the commission shall
comprise fvs citizens Of the United
States whose knowledge, experiences
in building undertakings and whose.
integrity shall command the public
confidence and respect"
Experts Are Reeonmended.
In introducing his measure, Mr..
Tinkham said:
Modern enterprise and business
can. be efficient and successful only
by the employment of experts. Mod
ern democracy. can be efficient and
successful only by the advice and US
sistance of experts.
The present public buildings pol
icy OF the United States should Re
changed from a political system. with
Its utter waste and extravagances,

experience, assisted and guided BY
experts.
eTf public buildings are needed
they should be built: IL they are not
needed they should not be built Yet
from time immemorial Federal build
ings too small have been built In
large centers OF population, Federal
buildings too large have been built
in small centers of population, and
Federal buildings which should not
have been built at all are numerous.
Leads to Extravagsnee.
"The present method Of appropri-
ating money for public buildings By
Congress without expert advice Or
assistance and without system or
policy leads to unlimited extrava-
gance and unnecessary expenditure.
with a premium put upon the waste
and prodigality of the expenditure
Of the public funds by the political
to accrue to those elected
representatives Of the people who
can obtain the most money from the
public treasury for their constitu-
encies, whether needed OF not by the
public exigencies. The public build
ings policy of the United States must
be placed upon a sound business ba
sis. Efficiency, scientific manage
ment an deconomy demand this. and
have introduced for the appointment
Of a temporary expert commission
to report to Congress, IL enacted into
law, will lead tP these most desired
results"

Apparent Fear of Misconstru-
ing Presidents Words
Shown by Press.
APPLAUD LOFTY PRINCIPLES
Most of Comment Hinges on
Use of Term peace With
out Victory"

LONDON, Jan. 23.-MindfuI of the
error into which they were drawn
on President Wilson's peace note by
overhastiness, British editors today
were generally cautious in their at.
tempts to analyze and interpret the
Presidents speech in the Senate.
They evidently feared a possible mis-.
construction on his remarks. .
Most Of the comment. however. hinged
on the American Executives use of the
term peace without victory" The
papers owned by Lord Northcliffe in
sisted there cannot be a drawn war be-
tween the spirit with which the allies
are animated on the one side and on
the other the spirit OF Prussian mill
tarism.
AppIauds Lofty Principles.
The Morning Post answered Wilson's
assumption that neither side desires
victory by pointing out sections Of the
Kaiser's recent proclamation and letters
in which he emphasized Germany's de-
termination for a complete victory.
As a whole. the Liberal press ap-
plauded the lofty principles apparent
in the Presidents statement. but
baked at some of the applications
thereof, notably the reference to free
dom of the. seas.
The general impression among
both press and public seems to be
that the speech was intended to be
neither pro-alIey nor proGerman, but
rather pro-American, designed pri-
marily for American consumption
NVIctory for Allies First"
The Pail Mall Gazette expressed no
doubt Of Wilson's .distinterestedness
and his high-mindedness, but only re-
grets the exercise of these qualities in
a purely theoretical atmosphere"
@Victory for the allies" the news
paper continued, sis the first essential
of safety-after that we can talk
about permanent suppression of war
at our leisure"
The Times editorial today illus
trated the desire of British editors to
ego slow in commenting on the Will
son speech.
Avoids Premature Comment.
"Its language" the editorial said,
has evidently been weighed with so
much nicely and care that premature
comment might overlook or misinter-
pref the precise shade of meaning
which particular passages are intend
ed to bear.
''The Presidents project is nothing
less ambitious, less splendid than the
establishment of a perpetual and uni
versal reign of peace"
Lauds Presidents Action.
Z Continuing, the Times lauds Will
son as the first individual in a big
nation who advances as a practical
plan "the dreams of many thinkers
for a great number of centuries" al
though expressing doubt that such an
appeal to the Imagination and hearts
of people will result in their unre-
served approval
1.-THE allies believe that a victorious
peace is essential" the Times con-
cludes, las Lincoln believed IL essen
tial in the civil war. They believe 1t
essential for the attainment of those
very aims of the moral and ideal kind
which President Wilson regards as in
dispensable to the foundation of
solid peace such as America might
help to guaraneee"
