The building is now occupied by Mr.
H. Roes, proprietor of the dry goods
business operated under the name OF

Since there is no monopoly, the
facts do not justify the statement.
that as time goes on this efficiency
cannot fail to diminish, and, like all
monopolies, begin to defend itself by
repression rather than by efficiency
As long as the large packers have to
use their utmost efforts in competi>
ton with each other and with hum
dreds of smaller concerns to earn
their profits of only two or three
cents on each dollar of sales, there is
no room for falling-off in efficien-
cy.
However, l welcome such sincere
and disinterested views as those ex-
pressed by Mr.. Hoover. The public
and our legislators need to UNDER
stand our business much more thor
oughly than they do now, before they
are in a position to undertake re-
strictive regulation. Swift & Compa-
ny has voluntarily appeared before
Congressional Committees to give
such information as is desired We
have nothing to conceal All we want
is an opportunity to get the facts be-
fore the public, and when this has
been accomplished, we shall rely on
the sense of fair play OF the Ameri-
can people, and shall abide by their
verdict" -

Scarcity In Ships Blocks
Terminals
Hurley Appeals for Half Million
Tons of Space to Move Car
goes

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19-Relin
quishment of 100000 lightweight tons
of cargo shipping from the army SER
vice was sought yesterday by Chair
man Hurley of the shipping board.
He told Secretary Daniels and Gen.
March, chief of staff, that 500, 600
worth of commercial products for ex-
port was blocking terminal facilities
at American ports and the board was
unable to supply the ships for moving
IL
Secretary Daniels and General
March were told if the army would
release a portion of cargo ships with
in the next sixty days the shipping
board would undertake to provide it
with cargo space for all needs after
the congestion at all American ports
had been relieved.
Figures were presented by Mr..
Hurley showing the army now has B.
$4,000 lightweight tonnage of ship
ping in it's service, of which total
$4,000 tons is classed as transport
space, unsuited for cargo carrying.
This represents considerable de-
crease since cessation of hostilities,
he said, as the period of greater ac-
tivity, the army service had 100000
lightweight tons assigned to it.

LOTION TO WHITEN
AND BEAUTIFY SKIN

In all weathers the skin and COM
pleSion can be kept wonderfully
clear. soft and white by the use OF
this inexpensive lemon lotion which

skin that is flexible and young look
ing and a Deach-like complexion.-

BEST MEDICINE
She EVER TOOK
FOR HEADACHE
Maine Woman 10 Released from Pain
by Using The Tonic Treatment

Efficiently has become the business
measure Of one persons superiority
over another. This one succeeds
where another fails because Of the
difference in this quality. Personal
efficiency is dependent upon no one
thing as much as perfect health. II a
man or woman is handicapped with
headaches which cause torture day
and night. concentration and contin-
uous effort are impossible and the
victim is certain to be left behind in
competition.
Sick headaches are also called ner-
vous headaches. The cause varies
but it is usually some fault in the
body's process OF changing the food
into blood. Doctors call it faulty
metabolism." The blood loses its tone
and the nerves revolt. Patient, relia-
BILE men and women thus become ir-
ritable and erratic. Their friends
avoid them and the sufferers become
melancholy and brood.
This is a serious condition il per-
mitted to continue unchecked but in
many cases it yields to the tonic and
laxative treatment. Mrs. Alfred Snow
OF NO. SO Spring street. Auburn, Me-,
suffered from severe headaches for a
number OF years and although she
tried many medicines, none Of them
seemed to suit her case until she
tried DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
L was all tired OUT she says, "my
back ached at times so could hardly
move. I had severe headaches which
would make me feel deathly sick, was
pale and lost flesh and strength. My
sleep did me no good. l was tired and
restless all the time. had severe
nervous attacks and pain in the top
OF my head. Sometimes there were
trembling sensations all over my body
and my heart troubled me.
"One day my son brought home six
boxes OF DR.. Williams Pink Pills and
urged me to try them. which + did.
After the second box l could notice an
Improvement. I took twelve boxes at
that time and know they gave me
strength and built me up. I am very
thankful for the benefit which I have
received from DR.. Williams Pink pills
and whenever I need a tonic l shall
use them again."
There has been no increase in the
price OF DR.. Williams Pink pills
They are sold by your own druggist
or will be sent direct by mail, post
paid. on receipt Of price, so cents nor
box. six boxes for $3.50. by the ~
