PLAN To REDRAfT-
civil rights BILL
Question Arises as to Whether Con-
sress Could Pass Such a Law.

The soldiers and sailors civil rights
bill. which would prevent the lighting
men from being sued for debt while
the war Is on, has been sent back to
the subcommittee for redrafting. The
Senate Judiciary Committee now takes
the position that Congress has full
constitutional power to enact a rea-
sonable stay law which may control
the processes and proceedings Of State
courts.
There was question as to whether
Congress could pass laws that would
prevent the State courts from enforc-
ing foreclosure of mortgages. etc.
against a soldier or sailor.
The Judiciary Committee instructed
the subcommittee, consisting of Sena-
tors overman, Fletcher, Reed, Dilling-
ham and Brandegee, to bring out a
new bill, with the idea stated included
in il.
Direction was given by the commit
tee to a subcommittee, composed of
Senators Ashurst, Wolcott and Colt, to
report directly to the Senate a bill by
Hiram johnson, IL the subcommittee
thought the measure should be passed
at this session.
This bill seeks to remedy the situa-
ton of stevedores, longshoremen and
laborers engaged in loading vessels
engaged in commerce. Under a Su-
preme Court decision last May. these
men were deprived of rights under the
State workmen's compensation laws.

PROCURES NUMEROUS
BIRD PHOTOGRAPHS
Prof. Bartsch, of G. w. u. Has Many
Specimens from Florida.

An extensive series of bird photo
graphs Of the inhabitants of the bird
rookery at Bird Key. Dry Tortuges,
Florida. has been prepared by DIR.
Paul Bartsch, professor OF zoology at
George Washington University, and
will be used to illustrate the course
in ornithology that is being offered
this year. The photographs also will
furnish the. basis OF an article for
the Smithsonian report on the birds
OF this region.
The photographs were taken by Dr.
Bartsch on a flying trip of four
weeks duration to the Marine Biolog-
Ical Laboratory, of the Carnegie In
stitution on the Dry TOrtugas and
adjacent Keys.
For two months Dr. Bartsch was the
guest of Mrs. John b. Henderson,
a regent of the Smithsonian Institu-
tion. in Cuba and Haiti to explore Ger
tain regions, particularly in Haiti.
from which island very little land
mollusk material was represented in
the collections OF the National
Museum. These speciments were
in the chain of the distribution of
the West Indian land mollusks
A representative series OF about l5,-
900 speciments was secured and will
render possible a critical diagnosis OF
the West Indian land mollusk fauna
a piece of work possessing problems
of great interest to the scientist
problems which heretofore have been
incompletely touched upon.
About a thousand other miscellan-
eous natural history speciments were
secured, together with several hun.
dred pictures of birds of the region
which will furnish the basis of lecture
illustrations in the course in ornltho-
logy at the university.
DR.. Bartsch has just published a
monograph on THE West American
Melanellid Mollusks" and now has on
the press a monograph on The Phil
ippine Land Shells of the Genus
AmphidrOmus."

Catarrhal Deafness
May Be Overcome
A Simple, Safe and Reliable Way
that Calls for No Ugly
Trumpets, Phones or
Other Instruments.

To be deaf is very annoying and EN-
barrassing. People who are deaf are
generally mighty sensitive on this
subject. And yet many deaf folks
carry around Instruments that call at
tentlon to their Infirmity. Therefore
people who are hard of hearing, who
suffer from head noises, or who are
actually deaf from catarrhal trouble.
Will be glad to know Of simple
recipe that can be easily made up at
home for few cents cost that is
really quite efficient in relieving the
disagreeblae deafness and head noises
caused by Catarrh.
From any drug store get one ounce
or Parmlnt double strength) about SOC
worth. Take this home and put IL
into simple syrup made Of Ia pint
OF hot water and four ounces of ordi-
nary Granulated sugar. Take a table
spoonful four times a day.
This treatment should by tonic ac-
ton reduce the inflammation in the
middle ear that a catarrhal condition
would be likely TO cause and with the
Inflammation gone the distressing
head noises, headaches, cloudy think
ing and that dull feeling in the ears
should gradually disappear. Any one
who suffers from catarrh, catarrhal
deafness Or head noises should give
Parmint a trial. II is pleasant to take
and Is quite inexpensive.-Adv.
