FATHER JOHNS MEDICINE IS A
 TONIC OF GREAT FOOD VALUE
Builds New Flesh and Strength Because of Real Nourishment it Contains.

A real tonic food like Father Johns AIedi- cine contains within itself the food properties and bodybuilding nourishment which give re- newed strength and flesh. Too many so-caued 'tonics' are merely stimulants of appetite and depend for their upbuilding effect upon the other food which the patient may happen to eat.
 Expert chemical tests have proven that Father Johns Medicine is abounding in rich nOurishment. A teaspOonfuI of Father Johns Medicine is proven by these tests 10 con,ain six times more nourishment than the same quantity Of pure milk seven and one-haIf times more than the same quantity of oysters and two and one-haIf times more nourish- ment than beef steak.
 Do not allow yourself to become weak, thin and rundown because when you are in this condition you are an easy victim to many different disease germs.
 Because Father Johns Medicine is guaran- teed free from alcohol or dangerous drugs in any form, it is the safe medicine for you to use.

 "The opportunity that the War De partment has to actively serve the en- listed man. Nr. Woods wrote, lex pires. it might be thought, with their separation from the service fully paid and with a. S6O bonus and transportu- ton 10 their homes. They go from the service in good health. or. if phy- sically disabled, compensated by the system of war risk insurance.
 While the actual responsibility of the war depa rtnent does end here, the moral responsibility does not end until the soldier has been absorbed by normal civil life.
 Feeling this moral obligation as we do, the purpose Of the war depart ment is 10 coordinate, through my office, the various activities of the Federal, State and city government as well as those of private organiza- tions, looking to q system which will minimize the injustice and the peril of unemployment of discharged sol diers. The war department wants tc do all it can to supplement and tc help local effOrt,''
 Mir Woods expressed the opinion that the vast majority Of discharged soldiers return to their pre-war oc- equations naturally. He added: AS a business man I believe that the services of a discharged soldier are an excellent buy for an em- DInvpr''

WINNIPEG, Man., June 6.-Pa-
rades and street gatherings were
forbidden here today in a proclama.
ton by Mayor Gray.
The proclamation was issued in
the hope of preventing such melees
as occurred yesterday when general
strike parades coiiided with a pro-
cession Of returned soldiers opposing
the strike
There were numerous fist fights
Gained by prompt action of leaders
on both sides.
Both factions in the general strike
are bidding for the support of re-
turned soldiers. The strike commit.
tee claimed 10000 warriors are help
ing it. Mayor Gray declared those
figures exaggerated. He announced
1900 '1oyalist" soldiers have been
sworn in as special constables and
said many more are available.
A tentative settlement plan drawn
up by the railway brotherhood media
ton committee was again modified
today. It's negotiations are secret
Employers and government officials
claim the strike can not last much
longer, as strikers lack funds to carry
1t on. Reports Of actual need and of
strikers asking that they be given
work were frequent, they said.
This was disputed by strike lead
ers who said there was no danger of
their being starved out

RETURN OF
WIRES ORDER
Continued from page II

graph companies again in control OF
| their owners today, congressional
| leaders met to revise the pending leg
| islation for return to the wires.
| House and senate interstate COM
MERGE committees were called TO con-
slider how far congress should go TO
supplement and complete Postmaster
General Burleson's sudden order late
Yesterday handing back control or
operations Of the wires to the COM
panies.
That the order does not remove
need for some legislation, both Sena-
tor Cummins and Representative
Esch, chairmen of the senate and
house interstate commerce commit
tees, agreed.
Cummins said the continuation OF
rates fixed under government control
seemed to him the principal matter
needing congressional action
I'VE shall determine today" said
Crmmins, whether to go ahead with
the kellogg resolution now on the SEN
ate calendar or to withdraw it and
introduce an amended measure OF
narrow scope"
The kellogg measure provides that
, the telephone and telegraph properties
shall be returned forthwith and
that rates fixed under government
control shall be continued at least until
the president has signed the measure.
,, Members of the senate committee
said in their opinion the Burleson
order, by limiting the REIMBURSEMENT
CT federal control to control OF opera
ticns," makes necessary law actually
putting the physical properties back
ir. the hands Of private owners They
regarded Burleson's step as prepara-
tory to give the companies time to
adjust their bookkeeping.
According to testimony of Newcomb
Carlton, Western Union president, be-
fore house and senate committees, the
transition back to private control will
mean absolutely no change SO far as
the public will be aware, in the con-
duct of the business. Carlton said he
had been permitted to resume the
business just as before the war.
Representative Esch, chairman OF
the house committee on interstate and
foreign commerce in announcing his
committee would meet today to con-
slider the needs OF the situation, limited
that Burleson appeared to be trying
to "get out from under"
"At first hand it looks like the post
master general wants TO avoid the diff
ficulties that now confront the COM
panies," Esch said. The most inn
portant thing to determine is how the
postmaster generals higher rates vii
affect efforts of the public to obtain
lower ones through their utilities com
mittees and legislation is needed SO
that clear authority is given commits
sions to adjust rates as soon as the
lines are completely returned, go that
the companies cannot tie up the de-
creases in the courts for years"
Members of the committee seem 10
favor some fixed adjustment period.
First Assistant Postmaster General
Rooms suggested year, but other wit
nesses stated three TO six months
would be sufficient. The senate bill
provides sixty days.
