WASH THE KIDNEYS!

All the blood In the body passes thru
the kidneys every few minutes. This is
why the kidneys play such an important
role In health or disease. BY some mys-
terious process the kidney selects what
ought to come out Of the blood and
takes II out. II the kidneys are not
~goOd-workmen and become congested-
poisons accumulate and we suffer from
backache, headache, lumbago, rheu-
matism or govt. The urine Is often
cloudy, full Of sediment ; channels often
get sore and sleep is disturbed at night.
So 1t is that DR.. Pierce, Of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute In Buffalo,
n. Y. advises "Washing the Kidneys"
by drinking six to eight glasses Of water
between meals and then If you want
to take q harmless medicine that will
clear the channels and cure the annoy
Ing symptoms, go to your druggist and
get Anuric double strength), for Coo.
This "Anuric," which is so many times
more potent than lithia-will drive out
the uric acid pOisons and battle the kid
neys and channels in a soothing liquid.
If you desire, write for free medical
advice and send sample of water for
free examination. Experience has
taught Doctor Pierce that "Anuric" Is
a most powerful agent In dissolving
uric acid, as hot water melts sugar.

which makes a public sale impractical

Urges Caution i'm
Cancellation of
Big War Contracts
Banker Fears Hasty Action
Would Cause Serious Busi-
ness Unsettlement

NEWARK. Nov. 26.-Francis Fl. Sis
son, vice-president Of the Guaranty
Trust Company of New York, in an ad-
dress here to-day before the Essex
County Bankers Association urged
that the government refrain from alb
ruptly cancelling war contracts for
supplies until at least the funda-
mental readjustments Of labor and
capital to normal conditions can be
made in orderly fashion"
Pointing out the need of delicate
adjustments. Mr. Sisson said: "In
expedlting the readjustment OF govern
ment activities from war to a peace
basis care must be exercised to avoid
too abrupt curtailment Of expendi-
lures, for otherwise the men who have
invested extensively in the war fac
tories will not be given an adequate
opportunity to protect themselves by
the conversion of their plants from
war to peace production. The effort
which an unduly sudden transition
would have on bank loans and credits
is matter worthy of careful con-
sideration.
1T will undoubtedly be necessary to
retain certain amount Of control over
industry until the process Of readjust-
ment has proceeded to the stage
where such agencies are no longer
needed or desirable. But the funda-
mental issue involved in the problem
is whether we shall return to the pol
Icy OF private ownership and manage
ment Of industries generally or
whether we shall experiment with
state socialism. The solution lies in
determining which policy will yield
greater efficiency in production and
greater equity in the distribution of
wealth.
"Apropos Of this question, It Is In
teresting to note that the first nine
months Of government operation of
the railroads have cost the government
almost S200000,000 In excess of re-
ceipts, in spite Of greatly increased.
rates.
Stringent government control in
peace times would certainly constitute
deadly menace to commercial and in
dustrial interests. A reasonable pro
lection of the public welfare by the
exercise of proper cooperation on
the part Of the government is quite an
other matter"

Warfeld Replies to Rea

S. Davies Warheld, president of the

statement in reply to Samuel Rea's In

expressed his opposition to any precipi-
tate railroad policy which would not
thoroughly protect the national inter
est and that of the roads.
"1f Mr.. Rea regards our plan Of &C

with him." Mr.. Warfeld said. Further

rious committees of the association,
coming from nearly every state in the

lating suggestions for the return of the
railroads. The membership of these
committees represents the best thought
in the financial, business, industrial and
railroad life of the country. The legal
and other requirements and time of re-
turn might be also safely left to the
advisory counsel.

Experts Needed to
Solve New Problems
Mitchell Warns Against Dom.
nance Of Politicians Dur
ing Reconstruction

CLEVELAND, Nov. 26-Charles e.
Mitchell, president of the National City
Company, of New York, speaking here
to-day before the Cleveland Chamber
of Commerce, warned against the dan
ger of having inexpert congressman
solve the technical financial and indus
trial problems of reconstruction in the
United States.
After pointing out that all the other
leading countries of the world had
planned and prepared far more c)m-
pletely for the after the-war situation
than this country, Mr. Mitchell said: "As
we study the preparation of other coun-
tries to meet the problems of the re-
adjustment period, one fact stands out
foremost: the personnel of their COM
missions, carefully conceived. is drawn
from industrial, economic and financial
circles. Such men as do come from
governmental bodies are few, but are
usually expert in the line of endeavor
to which the special committee is to
devote itself. There seems to be
movement in our own Congress to give
study to reconstruction problems, but
the movement apparently contemplates
the drawing of the members of the
American committees from Congress
itself Let us hope that our Congress
men will determine to make use Of the
best skill of the country, for our future
depends upon it,"
United States as credit nation, he de-
clared that our foreign debtors could
not repay their obligations in gold or
goods, but that Americans would in
stead have to make investments in for
eign countries. "That movement" he
said, "must start at once if American
industry is going to receive the ad-
vantage of foreign trade, trade that
must take place by reason of the fact
that foreign countries generally vii!
be forced to lcok to America to furnish
trial development. The problem as to
how credits are to be established is Of
great Importance, as upon the solu-
tion thereof will likely depend the
course of America and Americans in
world thinking. Whatever is purchased
from American producers must be paid
for by credits established by American
banks.
1T cannot be arranged through the
sh pment of foreign gold to US, for W.
already nave too great proportion of
the gold supply of the world on our
hands. 1t cannot be arranged through
trade balances, for foreign govern
ments must have raw materials and
other supplies, too, promptly, and we
nope that the trade balance will not
move against us. 1t must be done, then
through foreign loans in this country"
Mr.. Mitchell said he believed that the
investors in this country would be will.
