Plan to Equalize Burdens of War Is
 Sent to Congress

Louisville. Ky, May IA plan t, eQualize the demands made respec- lively upon soldiers and stay-at- homes; the liquor business and fla vored industries is proposed in a letter sent today to the President. the Cab- inet, and Congress, by T. M. Gilmore, president of the National Model Li- censei League. The letter is as fol- lows:S
 Something should be done at once to lessen the inequality between those required to. give up all and fight for the flag and those who stay at home, probably to increase their wealth and profits.
 When military necessity compels men to jeopardize life and limb and to face disease and naiming we should not force them also to inlpoverish themselves.
 Our enlisted men should be gener- ously paid and their pay should aver age not less than the average income of well-paid, capable men on a peace basis. These men should receive not less than $20O per month, together with liberal life, health and accident insur- ance and to meet the expense every income in the country in excess o3 $20O per month should be confiscated by the governr' ent.
 .The suggestion that all incomes in excess of s200 per month be confscated may come as a shock to many of our selhshly generous citizens who are so unsparing in their efforts to compel patriotic sarifices by others than them selves. ITO them such a step may seem rad ical but it is conseryat; i've in com y,or r-iC ho that practically confiscates mems bodies and their lives and it certainly is con- servative i'll comparison with the threat to confiscate by prohibition enactment the hundreds of millions of dollars lawfully invested in the liquor business; together with the sole means of livelihood now enjoyed by millions Of persons connected directly and in- directly with that business.
 with the same complacency that characterized Nero as he ffddled while Rome was burning, such men as Rockefeller. Jr., Gary, Morgan, Van G'erlip and the like, are urging the Government to coniscate, without a dollar of compensation, the hundreds of millions invested in the breweries distilleries and wineries of this coun- try.
 'Now, I am sure that the brewers, distillers and winemakers are as dis loyal as any citizens of the United States.
 'fif the needs of the Nation demand the sacrifice of their profits, they will willingly surrender them; or if these needs demand the sacrifice of all of their properties, they will stand 1t like men; and if the needs of the Ma ton demand their lives, or the lives of their sons, they will step to the front and cry 'Long Live the Repub- lic."

SAVE YOUR HAIR!
25-CENT BOTTLE
STOPS DANDRUFF
Every bit of dandruff disappears
and hair stops
coming out.
Try this! Your hair appears
glossy, abundant, wavy
and beautiful.

Thin, brittle. colorless and scraggv
hair is mute evidence Of a neglected
scalp: of dandruff-that awful scurf.
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. 1t robs the hair
of its luster. its strength and its very
life; eventually producing a feverish-
ness and itching of the scalp. which if
not remedied causes the hair roots tC
shrink. loosen and die-tlen the hair
falls out fast. A little Dand' rine to
night-now-any time-will surely
save your hair.
Get a 25-cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store or tot
let counter. and after the first appli-
cation your hair will take on that life,
luster and luxuriance which is Sc
beautiful. 1t will become wavy and
fluffy and have the appearance 81
abundance, an incompatible gloss and
softness; but what will please you
most will be after just a few weeks
use. when you will actually see a 10;
of fine. downy hair-new hair-grow-
ing all over the scalp.
Danderine is to the hair what fresh
showers of rain and sunshine are tt
vegetation. 1t goes right to the roots
inVigorates and strengthens them. Its
exhilarating and life-producing prop
critics cause the hair to grow long,
strong and eeutifuI.-Advertise
