Unions will oppose a maximum price

lower the standard of living, to obtain
wage increases to meet the rising
costs of necessities, and to organize
the unorganized workers in munation
industries will line up the whole
strength of the American Federation
OF Labor against maximum wages.
Federation officials today emphatl-
cally warned the war convention OF
business men at Atlantic City, where
the suggestion OF wage fixing was
made, not to attempt such a move.
THE Council OF National Defense
agreed at the opening OF this war
said Secretary Frank Morrison, that
the war should not result in lowering
labor's standard OF living. An In
crease in the cost OF living means ex'
actly that. Labor will not agree TO
fixed wages in the face Of rising liv-
ing costs. We are also opposed TO
having our hands tied in our normal
work OF unionizing unorganized
trades, and in the low-paid trades this
naturally means raising their wages
and decreasing their hours"

QUICK RELIEF FROM
CONSTIPATION
Get DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets

That IS the joyful cry of thousands
since DR.. Edwards produced Olive Tab
lets. the substitute for calomei.
Or. Edwards, a practicing physician
for II years and calomers old-tirne en-
envy, discovered the formula for Olive
Tablets while treating patients for
chronic constipation and torpid lyers.
Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets do not
contain calomel, but a healing, sooth-
ing vegetable laxative.
No gripping Is the keynote" Of these
little sugar-coated, olive-colored tablets.
They cause the bowels and liver to act
normally. They never force them to
unnatural action
If you have a dark brown mouth"
now and then-a bad breatl--a dull,
tired feeling - sick headache - torpid
liver and are constipated, you'll find
quick, sure and only pleasant results
from one or two little Dr. Edwards
Olive Tablets at bedtime.
Thousands take one or two every
night Just to keep right. Try them.
