Wisconsin Congressman Accused Of
Uurging Boy to Evade Draft.
Madison, Wis. Nov. 30-Congress-
man John NJ. Nelson and his son BY
ron have been indicted by a Federal
grand jury on a charge of conspiracy
to violate the selective service law.
The son previously had been indict-
ed for failure to register. They will
be tried in December
Young Nelson now is on his fathers
ranch in Canada. When advised by
his father of the first indictmen
against him, he returned to Madison
and registered, and then went to the
Office of the United States marshal,
where a warrant was served. He
pleaded not guilty, and Judge Sanburn
fixed bail at $500.
1t is asserted by the government
that Byron Nelson failed to register
upon the advice of his father. The
contention of Congressman Nelson Is
that under selective service rules an
American citizen not in the country
need not register, but must do so with
IN five days after reaching an Ameri-
IAN port.

s. Appendicitis is primarily due to the
poisons formed by decaying food in the
bowels. 1t is a disease caused by inn
proper and insufficient bowel elimina-
ton Many people have only a small
passage in the center of the bowels
while the sides are clogged with old,
stale, fermenting matter. They may
have a bowel movement every day but
it is not a complete movement and the
old stale matter stays in the system to
ferment and cause trouble. Besides APP
pendicits such unclean bowels cause
headaches, stomach trouble and 90 per
cent of all other sickness. The old foul
matter sticking to the sides of the
bowels often stays in for months, pois-
oning the body and causing that list
less. tired feeling known as auto in
toxication." ...--.-. -
HOW TO AVOID TROUBLE
The way to avoid sickness and to
keep feeling full of ambition is to
watch your bowels. just as you keep
the outside of your body clean you
should also KEEP THE INSIDE
CLEAN 1t is even more important to
keep the bowels clean than it is to keep
your body washed, because the millions
of pores in the thirty feet of bowels
quickly absorb poisons generated by
decaying food left carelessly in the
bowels. Don't allow the old, ferment-
Ing, filthy stuff to stay in your, bowels
for weeks. but GET 1T OUT and keep
it ont. Remember. filthy bowels are
the cause of most siekness-no stom-
ach, liver or any other organ can do

RAISE IN OCEAN
|. RATES Will Send
H. C.L. Awaiting

IL the Atlantic scale is adopted in
the Pacific following the removal by
the government of the steamers Maui,
Matsonia and Wilhelmina next month
and early in December, freight rates
between San Francisco and Honolulu
will be doubled and, on some commodi-
ties, more than doubled, and there will
be very marked increase in prices of
all groceries and provisions, declares
the manager of large local retail and
wholesale grocery concern.
The manager in question has gone
thoroughly into the freight and other
problems which will necessarily arise
with the removal of the big Matson
steamers, and his findings are clearly
outlined in a statement given the Star
Bulletin today. He says:
Because no cargo arrived in Homo
lulu from San Francisco last week a
great many items in the grocery and
provision line were entirely off the
local market.
This is an indication of what may
be expected with the withdrawal Of
the steamships Maui, Matsonia and
" 1A4ISlAl1LssF uuI1uS N0NcluD6E~ anu
early December. According to Asso-
eiated Press dispatches these vessels
will be substituted by the steamships
President and Governor, which have
been in the Seattle-San Francisco
service -s.-@ H. -. -. .. :.
These steamers were built prima.
rily for passenger service and not as
large cargo carriers. Probably the
combined tonnage will amount to
about 1000 tons. This is a slim COM
parison againt the Matson tonnage,
for the three vessels average about
$4,000 tons. -" ..>s"> T..
'The federal shipping board no
doubt intends to put on other vessels
to replace the lost tonnage, but as yet
no announcements have been made.
There is bound to be lack of cold
storage space to take care of the ship
ments of perishable goods. We can
foresee this very plainly. 81
Freight rates between San Fran
cisco and Honolulu will double and, on
certain items, more than double the
present rates providing the Atlantic
scale of rates is adopted in the Pacific
service. t.#rs

marked increase in all groceries and
