Washington, July 26.-(Special.)- The stabilization of foreign exchange to the end that European nations de- sirous of purchasing American goods may do so in the immediate future, is the present object of the federal re- serve board.
 w. F.. G. Harding, governor of the board. has stated to members of Con- gress among others Senator Dial of South Carolina, that such stabilization would serve a good puspose but that it's relief would be only temporary. Governor Harding is in favor of the enactment by Congress of some Nleg- islation as contained in lthe Edge bill which embodies suggestions made by Frank A Nanderlip on his recent re- turn from Europe.
 The banking and currency committee Of the Senate, despite the attitude of the federal reserve board, adversed the Edge bill. Senator Gronna of North Dakota, who led the fight against the Dill, charged that it was scheme to enable American bankers to gain con- trol Of industries in devastated Europe. Senator Edge, in explaining his meas ure, stated that 1t permitted the for nation of corporation in the United States to underwrite foreign exchange and grant credit to European nations and firms desirous of entering the Am erican markets

 NOT TAKE HIS SEAT

washington, July 26.-(SpeciaL)- Victor Berger. despite his convictions oy the courts, is making aggressive fight for his seat in the House: His lawyer has made the cery nice point that Congress, in efforts to proceed against MT. Berger, is in fact proceed Ing against the socialist party.
 It was his contention that MT. Berg CT had never said or done anything other than was contained in the plat form of the socialist party which elect ed him to Congress.
 This contention was vigorously de- nied by democratic members of the committee hearing the case They de- clared that the socialist party had nothing to do with the matter. that the House was considering Berger the man.
 MT. Berger, with Milwaukee behind him, is taking advantage of the time during which his appeal pends Tech nlcally, he sis not guilty of violating war legislation until the supreme court sustains the decision of the lower court: Otherwise, he would be rejected ipso facto.
 It is regarded as safe conclusion that the House will never permit Ber- ger to take his seat. A majority vote may deprive him of that privilege. If he was once seated, a two-third vote would be necessary to expel him.

A FORMER SOLDIER
 JUST FROM FRANCE
 IS PRA|S|NG DRECO
Says His Back Was Weak,
 Kidneys Gave Trouble and Had Pains Constantly
ALL GONE NOW

While most of "our boys returning from France are in good health, we sometimes see one who is not. The old saying What is pie for one is poison for another,' was true of army work and discipline. Such was the case with MT. John G. Allen, of Lewisburg, near Birmingham, Ala, who says:
 Upon my return from the army in France, I found my back was weak, kidneys out of order, and I suffered al most daily from these troubles. Looking around for good medicine to straight en me out, 1 decided on Dreco, for so many people seemed to be taking the remedy. I am glad to say it was also successful in my case for my pains ara all gone. and my back is strong as ever I freely advise every sufferer from back ache or weak kidneys, to try Dreco, for it will surely help them.'
 There is probably no other medicine of the kind that has won the praise Dreco has during the past year, right here in this section. Men and women, who have given themselves up as incurables, are coming forward with remarkable signed statements. telling what Dreco has ac- complished for them, after almost every thing else has failed
 Dreco is a scientific combination of good old fashioned roots, herbs, barks and berries. It conta ins absolutely no mineral salts, or harmful metallic drugs It has been recommended strongly for stomach. kidney, liver, nerve and blood disorders, and already there are hun dreds of men and women in this sec tion, who are taking it with excellent results.
 All good druggists now sell Dreco, and it is highly recommended in Birming- ham by Jacobs drug store. Dreco is also sold in Bessemer by the Fulton Drug company, in Fairfield by Halls pharmacy. in Vivian by Central phar- macy.-Ady.

 T was a sick man for 25 years,' con- tinued MT. Lopez, and my stomach was in such a bad fix that for the last five years l wasn't able to eat any supper at all, and any kind of fruits or vege- tables would cramp me so awfully that I never would touch them and I was simply miserable most all ehe time from the gas on my stomach. I lost consid- erable weight and at the time I started taking Tanlac I weighed only a hundred and thirty-eight pounds
 'The few bottles of Tanlac I have talk en built me up wonderfully and I actual ly gained 10 pounds on my first three bottles. My stomach is in such fine condition that can eat anything, includ- ing fruits and vegetables, without the slightest pain or trouble from gas, and l can eat as hearty a supper now as anybody and enjoy every mouthful, too D

PACKERS HAVE MANY
 FRIENDS IN CONGRESS-

Washington, July 26.-(SpeciaI.)- It becomes plain that the big packers of Chicago will have friends in Con- gress just as the recent flood of tele- grams, in their behalf, indicated that they had friends in civil life through out the United States
 Senator Kenyon, who has introduced legislation to control by government supervision the operation of the "big live" of Chicago. which it is contended is about to acquire the ownership of the food markets of the entire nation. takes every opportunity to protest in the Senate against the propaganda which. at the packers instance and at the packers expense, he charges, is being directed against his bill and against Congress.
 Senator sherman of Illinois, answer ing Senator Kenyon. declared that hte opposition to the packers, and the Ma uonal Wholesale Grocers' association are just as active in propaganda work as the packers are
 T am glad" he said, that the sena- tor from Iowa is getting a dose of his own medicine"
 Senator Kenyon protested with a statement that the packers opposition ana the grocers' association were simply fighting for their lives.

abroad as the representative of his party at home.
 The attempt to promote socialism, or a more radical doctrine, is being pushed now because of the awakening of the workers to what they regard as the evils of present economic and industrial con- ditions. The average Japanese workman is beginning to raise his voice for bet ter pay and more freedom generally.
 The central organization for working men in Tokio has addressed an open let ter to the home minister, the president of the Chamber of Commerce and others, declaring that in case of war it is the working people of Japan who are called upon to defend it's shores, and asking whether it is the national policy ef Japan to allow capitalists to fatten while the workers are starving?
 pr. Jikei Yokoi of the Imperial univer- sity, in a public statement says that dem ocratic ideas long prevalent in the great cities, have recently spread among the rural population. They have particular ly affected, he said, school teachers, members of the young mems associa- tions and army reservists.
 Many Japanese scholars are reported to be enthusiastically studying socialism. Laborers are openly interested and are often heard discussing the subject street cars
