FROM THE PEOPLE.
FROM DR.. d. c. SUMMERS.

to return to Elm Springs, and go

three days, and can already feel i'm

ton.
IN most o. these so-called medical
springs there is really no medical
properties about the water-iu,t sim
ply good, pure water. But in these
waters there is a combination Of
some of the most important medicines,
the mixing Of which has baffled the
skill OF the worlds best cner1iets, but
the divine chemist has here so com
bined them that they arc readily as
simulated.
The most prominent OF these ele-
ments are IRON, sulphur and lithia,
while there are some others in lesser
quantities that are valuable as medi-
cines, -manranes and the mqgnesias.
IL cases of anemia in any disease,
the iron will build up the blood--that
IS, increase the red elements of the
blood, while the sulphur and magnesia
acts as q laxative and neutraliZel of
gases that accumulate in the stomch
IN ase 5f in irgestion, All thus proves
to be great eliminator of the toxins
resulting from fermentation IN the in
testinal tract.
While this is going on the ithia
soothes and acts upon the kidneys,
eliminating through this channel the
toxins which should be carried off by
normally active kidneys, but which
are retained because of the sluggish
action Of the kidneys in many dis
eases.
The want of elimination is at the
bottom of most diseases-in fact, al
most all Of them, and therefore, this
water will benefit almost any aiiment

Why We Fight

international, passed this judgment on
the German Socialists, which expresses
the conviction Of all free peoples, and
to which we have already responded:
A party which thus betrays the rights
Of the peoples to decide their own
destinies cuts itself off from the inter
national A defnitive judgment, which
for our part we consider should be
supported and put into execution.
I'VE shall only be prepared to re-
gard the German Socialists as men
worthy OF our esteem and our col
laboration when. either being unable
or not daring TO overthrow the idol
OF autocracy in their country, they
have at least, following the example of
Karl Liebknecht, reformed themselves
and repudia.ed any connection with a
militarism responsible for the most
terrible war that the world has yet
known, with an oppressive imperial
ism the threat of which still lies
heavily on the whole of humanity.
Like you, we consider that this war
means the opposition Of the past and
the Authorization and progress,
tyranny and liberty, autocracy and
democracy; and that socialism, the
party Of the future, the highest ex-
preston Of human ideals. cannot. with
out being false to those ideals, come
to any agreement with militarism and
tyranny. Either the cause of civiliza-
ton and right will triumph, or the
world will be thrown for centuries into
an abyss of reaction and iniquity."

advanced. One even hesitates to state it,
but it was openly advanced in the cir
cles of those who have so long fought
for concrete ships, and is therefore ain
the news"
1t is that "the steel interests" have
the ear of the Shipping Board and have
used their access to it to discourage
an extensive concrete programme. This
seems a fantastic explanation, because
there isn't steel enough for the ships
ordered, and concrete is advanced not
as a substitute for steel ships, but go
an additional source of ships over and
beyond the limitations imposed by the
available steel.
All the steel the country makes could
be marketed if not pound of it were
going into ships.
The disappointed concrete men will
tell you, in answer to this argument
that there are some ramifications of
steel interests that they don't care
even to hint at, but that the steel men
are looking ahead and fear that after
the war concrete will supersede steel
in ships, just as steel and iron ousted
wood after the Civil War.
One definition of mystery is that it
is something beyond human reason.
After listening to the efforts of the ex-
perts in concrete ships exegetics one
is forced to the conclusion that the
policy of ships-when-
you-can't-and-don't- n't-when-you-can" is
that kind Of a mystery.

Especial Dispatch to The Tribtae>
WASHINGTON, June 23.-The supp
preston of the concrete ship just
when it has become SO successful that
private capital is prepared to take its
chances in building such ships, and
when every possibility of wood and
steel shipbuilding is being exhausted
by the limitations Of yards, men, man
agement, material and transportation
is one of the mysteries of the day.
The concrete ship advocates, who
fought an uphill fight for months, final
ly overcame all direct opposition and
persuaded the Shipping Board to make
concrete construction a regular part
OF the programme, now feel that they
have won but hollow victory. They
have the name but not the substance.
They were not contending for forty
leisurely built ships-they were con-
tending for the energetic utilization
of new and almost unlimited source
Of ships to meet the greatest ocean
transport emergency Of all time.
All the old ways and capacities for
building ships had been utilized to the
limit and still the cry was for more
ships. They had new source of sup
ply which matched the cmergency-a
source that promised ships in regions
of uncongeated rail transportation,
that needed scarcely any OF the ma
terial required for wood or steel ships,
that needed only one tenth as much
man power as they-and that not drawn
from the ranks of potential workers on
the other ships-and that/could be
l.. al,
They built at San Francisco 5000
ton concrete ship, the Faith, that has
proved q complete success, and has
knocked out every important theoreti-
cal objection to concrete ships.
Seven days after the Faith was
launched the great German drive in
France resulted in the scrapping Of the
carefully laid plans for gradually NOV
ing million men to France in the
course of year, and precipitated a
movement at the rate of q million every
four months.
The need for ships, if acute before,
became desperate. A high authority
has stated that in response to the des-
perate needs of the moment armies are
being sent to France with no assurance
CT maintenance or supply.
The Faith came almost as sign
from heaven.
The Shipping Board responds with
orders for some forty ships and the de-
cree that no private construction of
concrete will be allowed, whether for
government or private account. When
the concrete ship was venture into
the maritime unknown the Shipping
Board would not take heroic chance
itself, but encouraged private builders
to do so. Now that the concrete ship
is a certainty, the Shipping Board
builds few and chokes off private
enterprise.
Why?
1t is so hard to find good reason
that rather fantastic one has been

Navy Is Blocking
Brokers in War
Bids, Says M'Gowan

WASHINGTON, June 23.-In pur-
chasing supplies and materials the
Navy Department has used every en-
deavor to eliminate brokers and COM
mission agents, Rear Admiral Nc
Gowan, paymaster general Of the navy,
said tonight in a statement in con-
nection with the Department of JUS
tice's investigation into the activity of
commission agents who have obtained
war contracts for manufacturers.
The departments efforts have been
so successful, Admiral McGowan said,
that of the $4,000 firms on the bidders
list of the navy's Bureau Of Supplies
and Accounts only few do not present
their bids directly.
These few, the admiral said, seem to
prefer to deal through commission
agents or brokers.
Admiral MCGOWAN denied published
reports that since the volume of con-
has been more difficult for naval intel
ligence officers to investigate the
standing and reputation of all persons
seeking to negotiate war orders.
"The fact is," said the admiral's
statement, "that the responsibility of
contractors was never SO thoroughly
investigated and they were never held
to a stricter accountability than they
have been since this country entered
the war. The number of responsible
direct bidders has greatly increased
and at the same time the number OF
agents and Intermediates has been re-
duced to minimum. The safeguards
against profiteering have not been re-
laxed, but strengthened.
"The Bureau of Supplies and Ac-
counts rejects each month about 15C
applications to be placed on the bid
ding list from concerns that cannot
show they are manufacturers or deal
crs carrying in stock the articles they
offer to supply. All bids for navy con
tracts are open and the record is
available for the inspection of all in.
