CONTROL BILL
Senator Gore, Democrat,
Brands It AS Striking
At Farmer
(By Associated Press }

Washington, June 21.-In a vigorous
attack on the administration food con-
troll bill in the senate yesterday, Senator
Gore, Democrat, chairman of the agri-
cultural committee, declared 1t strikes
at the farmer, will cause losses to pro-
ducers this year of $3.50, 900 in
wheat and $500, ZOO, 900 in corn and will
result in famine next year through re-
nAced production.
Senator Gore declared the bills
"shortsighted' policy would result in
driving down farmers prices.
1T was drawn by some attorney
down at the department of agricul-
tural' he shouted, 'but one would
think 1t is the handwriting of the
Deity and that it would be sacrilege
to change 1t"
Senator Gore declared the bill was
the "sweepings'' Of all the British and
Canadian food acts of parliament and
orders in council.
They are all strung together in this
bill like a lot Of beads" he declared,
Ell congress loses its self respect in
passing this bill unamended everybody
else will lose their respect for con-
gress."

and no play makes Jackie a dull boy" /.
Is truism that is being kept in mind
by the officers of the American tor
pedo boat destroyers who are doing
everything possible to encourage ath-
letics among the men. The most pre-
tentious program yet planned for the
American jackies is a big field at
which there will be running races,
walking races, baseball games and
many other sports. 1t will be held in
an athletic park which is in course of
construction, with funds provided by
generous American business men in
New York and London. Meanwhile
baseball is the only sport possible. A
great game was played yesterday in
honor of the arrival OF the American
newspaper correspondents. A large
crowd of spectators was present, COM
posed mostly of sailors in blue and
soldiers in khaki. The game was be-
tween picked teams and all the play
ers wore regulation uniforms which
had been brought from the United
States. 1t was strange to see the sail
ors emerge from the ships club like
big league players and stranger still,
when they marched through the
streets, to watch the villagers drop

Sound Kidneys

The hustle and hustle of modern life
cause weak kidneys because overworlS
and worry invariably create poison
faster than the kidneys can possibly
filter it from the blood. Pain in the
back, nervousness. and lack of ambi-
ton are the first warnings that the kid
neys are infiamed and congested, and
for these conditions Warmers Safe
Kidney and Liver Remedy should be
used for beneficial action. For 40
years this dependable medicine has
proved itself natures provision for
mankind against kidney disease and
it's oftimes terrible effects. Here's an
instance Of its remarkable efficacy:
Having been afflicted with kidney
and liver complaint for over 20 years,

whatever they were doing and stare
in amazement as if the procession was
something akin to a circus parade.
The game was played on beautiful
green on the cliffs back of town. From
the diamond could be seen the .Amerf-
can ships at anchor. There was no
grandstand but the American and
British naval officers, as we'll as
many khaki uniformed ones and the
curious village throng found the green
grass a. comfortable vantage point
from which to view the game. A
goodly sprinkling of girls from the
village were present. They already
have acquired a certain amount of
baseball slang and during the game
frequently made use Of it. The use
of the names of the men or the ships
from which they came is impossible,
but it can be said that the greys de-
feated the blues Is to 2. The greys
had a pitcher of some repute from the
Pacific Coast league, whose curves
the blues simply could not solve. They
would have been shut out but for the
fact that the pitcher passed a couple
of men which combined with poor
support gave the blues their only two
runs. But the game was remarkably
fast, and was thoroughly enjoyed by
stars and spectators alike.
