WILSON FOR
SPEEDING UP
Administration Says Quick
Action Is Necessary on
Railroad Bill
NEEDED TO AID
HIS WAR PLANS
; Final Vote Is Not Expected
Before Latter Part
Of Month

Washington, Feb. l3.--Despite prom
ised opposition TO provisions retaining
government control for Is months after
the war and giving President Wilson
rate making powers, administration Sen
ate leaders yesterday fought to bring
about speedy enactment 81 the railroad
bill because of its Importance as war
measure.
The necessity for early passage was
emphasized by Chairman Smith OF the
interstate commerce committee yester-
day when debate on the measure was be-
gun in the Senate The railroad situa'
tion, he said, made it imperative that
every necessary grant of power" be Civ
en- the administration to perfect govern
ment control, intimating that delay only
tended to complicate the governments
difficulties.
Few senators were in their seats when
the debate opened, but many have an
nounced their intention of discussing the
measure, and administration leaders ad-
init final vote probably will not be
reached before the end of the month.
Consideration of the bin was postponed
in the House because OF President Will
sons expected address, but effort will be
made to bring it up Thursday.

WILSON CALLS PARTY LEADERS.
Both Republicans and Democrats VIII
Confer at White House.

Washington, Feb. l3.-President Will
son began a series of conferences to-day
with Congress leaders-both Republicans
and Democrats--on all phases of war leg
islation. For the first time members OF
both parties are to be taken into the
White House councils in consideration
of war legislation and in this way the
administration expects to smooth out
some of the difficulties which confront
the war program.
The pending bill to empower the presi-
dent to consolidate executive depart
ment functions and redistribute work
among them, now openly opposed by the
Republicans. will be one of the first sub
iects to come up Some of the Demo
Gratis do not favor it and the Republicans
openly denounce il as comforting too
great authority. The bill, however, is
the administration counter proposal to
create super war cabinet and director
of munitions The president is repre-
sented as being unalterably opposed to
the committee plan and many members
OF Congress are just as much opposed
to the presidents plan.
The purpose of the conference is to
arrive at some compromise on this sub
iect first, but there is every indication
that they will be carried on throughout
the war The presidents move is re-
garded as the first step toward taking
members of both parties more into his
confidence and toward calling the Re
publicans actively into the war councils

Why suffer the handicap of looking

When the hair fades, turns gray and

Meat Unnecessary
SAYS ]. II. WATSON, M. d.

Meat is the most expensive article OF
diet, and the least necessary. Add milk
cheese, fruit, fresh fish, to vegetable arti-
cles, and you have a good diet. The rheu-
matte should abstain from meats, or eat
very sparngly. 1t is well-known fact
that in govt serious organic disease of
Futcher, Minkowski, Hans, Nogt and
Reach have shown that uric acid in ex-
cess is retained in the blood when the
kidneys do not help excrete this poison.
Uric acid retained within the body is be-
lieved to be the preceding stage or cause
of Bright's disease. The excessive use of
heterogeneous food or meats often in
creases uric acid.
High living intestinal Indigestion, CON
stipation, disturbance of the liver, fire.
quent chilling of the body-all result in
retaining within the body an excess of
uric acid.
The best way to overcome this condi
ton and prevent rheumatism and govt is
to drink plenty of water, say, pint of
hot water morning and night, with lem
on juice squeezed into it, and take Anuric
double strength three times a day.
This can be obtained at any drug store.
This is my invariable prescription for
the rheumatic person, and it usually fol
lows that the rheumatic pains, the back
ache, such as lumbago, pains in the back
of the neck or limbs, will disappear.
This Anurc by its tonic effect upon the
kidneys encourages them to greater ac-
tivity, and thereby the uric acid is
thrown out of the system. 1t is also well

BIG BUILDING FUND.
Church of the Holy Innocents, Rutland,
Has s4s,377.

Rutland. Feb l3.-Rev. w y. Loner
gan. pastor of the Church of the Holy
Innocents in this city, has reported tc
Bishop Joseph j. Rice of Burlington
that the building fund which the parish
has been raising for some time, now
amounts to S4s,377. This large sum rep
resents the accumulation of various
amounts subscribed by individuals and
the proceeds of many entertainments
given BY the men and women OF the
parish who have co-operated with rather
Lonergan in raising the fund.
No report has yet been made as to
the result of the house to house canvass
among families of the parish which be-
gan Sunday with the expectation OF rals-
ing 5000 for the fund.
This money is designed for the dual
purpose of rebuilding st. Mary's school
on Killington avenue, which Is too small
to meet present demands. and TO com
plere the church editice which now con

Father Lonergan stated to-day that
about $4,000 would be required to COM
plete the church building and $4,000 TO
the school. He would be glad
to go on with the work right away with
the money at hand, even though II would
mean assuming a large debt, but difficult
ty in obtaining materials because of war
conditions, makes the plan impractical

WHEN NERVES
ARE STARVING
Nutrition of the Nerve Cells Is the
Treatment Now Recommended
for Such Nervous Disorders.

If your hand, your thumb or foot
trembles when you try to hold it still, if
the lines are shaky when you write, if
you have tremors of your lips br chin,
your nerves need strengthening.
The way TO give nourishment 10 the
nerves is through the blood. This is the
modern treatment for severe nervous dis
orders and its results are seen in the
case of Mr.. ID. l.. Lucas of No. 2lS3 East
l03d street, Cleveland, Ohio, a man well
known in real estate circles in that city.
He says:
II slowly declined in health and could
use my limbs with difficulty. During the
greater part of my sickness | could get
about the house only by holding on arti-
eles of furniture but at times was con-
fined to my bed. My lower limbs shrunk
perceptibly, | suffered some with shoot
ing pains. my appetite was feeble, and /
was altogether in a terrible condition.

helping me, and | continued the treat
ment
"The improvement in my condition

and could walk any reasonable distance.

There is no tonic for the nerves that

down is a tonic shat viii build up the /
general health, revitalize the blood and |

meuts that they need.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are an ideal /
tonic for this condition. because they are /
