ment. Charts have been placed in all

employees of the various departments
and the other to the production of
the various mills.
As part of the speed up" program
at the Central Iron and Steel several
stirring addresses were made this
morning at a mass meeting held in
No. mill. George W. Miller, a New
York orator connected with the
United States Shipping Board and
Sergeant Major Dewitt, who was
gassed on the western front while
serving in the Red Cross section of

ers. Both men urged the employees

to it so far as we are concerned.
Any idea that we are having a walk
over is the biggest kind of a mis-
take. The majority of our men seem
able to think bit quicker than the
Germans. and that helps us to get
by.
The Germans we have met have
proved themselves brave, well
trained and are certainly well
equipped. They made things mighty
hot for us. There were only two
officers of my battalion on their
feet after we had won Chateau
Thierry. a number of them had
been killed and thirteen had been
severely wounded. l commanded

MADE HIM QUIT
AS MACHINIST,
SAYS SMITH
ITinds Way in Quick Order to Get
= Back in Form

If there ever was a wonderful
remedy it is Tanlac," says George c.
Smith, of 1947 North street, Harris
burg, Pa, for it helped me after
the doctors and other medicines had
failed TO give me the relief 1 longed
for.
Il had a sort of eczema all over
my face and body and it itched so
that it almost drove me crazy and
I couldn't find anything that gave
me the slightest relief.
Doctors told me that il was
caused by the oils from the machin-
cry as l was working as a machinist
in the P. +. r. shops, so 1 quit my
job and got another on a street car,
but the itching didn't get any bet
ter and I was almost insane from
the torture.
Then one day I decided I'd take
a crack at Tanlac and see what that
would do for I'd heard a lot of Won
derful reports about il and l sort of
had 4 hunch.
We'll, sir, believe me, it did the
work. The second dose brought re-
lief and it was only a matter of days
until my skin was all healed up. the
itching stopped and the eczema
gone entirely.
No other medicine could ever
give me relief from the itching. but
Tanlac quickly freed me from the
whole trouble. I can't begin to praise
il strong CROUCH"
Tanlac, the famous reconstructive
tonic, is now being introduced here

Tanlac man is meeting the people

Stop Indigestion
With Bi-nesia
Avoid Deadening Drugs and
Artificial Digestants

Pain in the stomach after eating,
indigestion. dyspepsia, flatulence.
gas, etc, are almost invariably due to
acidity and food fermentation. To at
tempt to cure the trouble by using di-
gestive powders and pills or deaden-
ing drugs is like trying to relieve
wound from splinter of glass by ap-
plying ointment without first reGov-
ing the glass. In each case the cause
remains and the trouble gets worse.
The common sense thing to do when
your stomach hurts is TO remove the
acid and stop the fermentation by
means of simple antacid or neutrate
such as Bi-nesia, which can be OBJ
tained of George a. Gorgas, or any
other good druggist in either powder
or tablet form. \ teaspoonful of
Bi-nesia powder or two or three of the
tablets taken in half glass of hot
water after eating. instantly neu-
tralizes the acid. stops food fermen-
tation, and thus enables the most con-
firmed dyspeptic to enjoy the heartiest
meals without the slightest pain or
inconvenience. Try this simple plan
at once and forget that you ever had
a stomach.
The trial costs nothing If it fails
for each package of BI-nesia con-
tains binding guarantee of satisfac-
tion or money back, and your drug
gist, a man you personally know,
stands back of that guarantee.

because the Cuban price is "a cents

that the Cubans are at our mercy
that we could get sugar a cent lower.
We made exhaustive study of the cost
of producing sugar in Cuba last year
through our own agents in Cuba, and
we find it averages $780, while many
producers are at a higher level. We
found that an average profit of at
least cent per pound was necessary
in order to maintain and stimulate
production or that minimum price of
S4.37 was necessary, and even this
would stife some producers.

cents above these figures, or about one
fifth of cent per pound TO the Ameri-l

amount has been saved by our reduc-.

stifle production in Cuba we could
take that course just at the time of all
times In our history when we want
production for ourselves and the al
lies. Further than that, the state de-
partment will assure you that such
course would produce disturbances in
Cuba and destroy even our present
