'i was in bed for six long months with stomach trouble and rheuma- tism and Tanlac alone deserves the credit for my recoverry,' said George Gregoire, popular longshoreman, of 271S 3rd avenue, Seattle, Wash "i have gained twenty pounds and feel like l was never sick a. day in my life,' re continued.
 My trouble started year ago. My appetite left me and what foic ed myself to eat would cause a sc- were pain in my stomach and short ness of breath. Meats wer, almost like Doison t. my system; 1 got as weak as a kitten and tn,, rhe anna tism laid ao'd of me SO bad I could hardly drag myself about.

I lost sleep and weight and was completely down and out.
 "Tanlac helped me so much that l was out of bed in three weeks and now l am like a different man. All my troubles are entirely gone, am back at work every day and do my work so easily surprise the men who work with me. 1 never felt bet ter in my life and give Tanlac all the credit for my splendid health.'

Effects of Fight
 On HOOkwOrm Felt

Kingston, Jamaica, July 10.-Effects of the campaign against the hookworm conducted by the government and an expert from the Rockefeller Foun- dation already are felt. In We're, one of the largest sugar centers of the colony the laborers now work six days a week, whereas formerly they were able to work but three.
 On account of their improved phy- sical condition large numbers of these workers are leaving Jamaica to work in the Cane fields in Cuba. Governor Probyn is sanguine that with the as- sistance of the Rockefeller commis. sion hookworm will be eradicatec from the island.

Greece and Scandinavia, also had grown wealthier. He believed the li- quid capital of the world, now distrib- uted in centers which are unaccus- toned to the exercise of their new powers, would eventually again find it's chief outlet through London.
 "The war has produced an extraor- dinary change in the economic rela- tions of the United States with Eu- rope," he said. "Whereas, in 1914 America owed Europe 2,000,000,00O pounds at present Europe, owes Amer ica 2,000,0 0,000,000 pounds.
 Assuming that the postwar pur- chasing power of the dollar is 70 pel cent of its pre-war value, MT. Cram mopd said during the past five years there had been an actual increase in the national wealth of the United States of approximately 30 per cent, and he estimated this wealth now in the neighborhood of 10000, 100000 pounds to s0,0OO,OOO,0OO pounds.
 The national wealth of Japan, he estimated, had ben doubled by the war.
 On the basis of a postwar mark valued at 50 per cent of it's pre-war value he estimated Germany has lost, apart from the indemnity, 25 per cent of Der national wealth, the whole of her mercantile marine, all her colo nial possessions, and practically the whole of her investments abroad. If the figures suggested at the Hythe conference 6,250,000,0O0 pounds were fixed as the German war indemnity he declared the total losses of the Ger man people arising out of the war would be equivalent to about 15,000,-

FREEMAN FOR ECONOMY
 ON RIVERS AND HARsORs
Especial to The Bulietfn.)


 Washington, Jan. 21. = When the rivers am harbors bill was before the house today Congressman Richard F. Freeman of the Second Connecticut district, said:
 This house has been, told that we must economize and the rivers and harbors committee has met that re- quest in a fair and proper manner. The small amount of this appropria- tion, the annual appropriation of the rivers and harbors 6omm1ttees this small amount demonstrates that this committee should be called not the pork barrel co1nrnitte. but, If we must have a nickname from the hog, we should be known as the spare e-rib com nittee. You must recognize that this is an exceedingly small appropriation for the annual appropriation of this widely advertised committee We've cut it to the bone, and that is what we propose to do. The situa- ton that confronts this country is this: A great army of 100000 men has been recently deinobiIized, and yet all these men have found or seeh to have found, ready employment in the various agricultural, commercial, and industrial pursuits of this country Labor today throughout the country is scarce and wages are very high. The cost of material grows higher and higher, and the price of improve n1ents, public or otherwise, is great CT than ever before.
 .t Now, the rivers and harbors con- n1ittee considered Rthe estimates of the engineers. amounting to $4S, ,00o, 900 for improvement and it developed in the hearings that this country, that this board of engineers, had at its disposal for existing projects sQne twenty five or thirty million dollars already, appropriated, available, and as yet unexpended. It also had in ad- dition to that amount, upon other pro. jects, for which additional estimates were not made, a further sum of s30. .000, ,0oo hakfng $6o. .090, GOO of avail able unexpended balances for the com ing year up to March 4, 1921. With these facts confronting us, 1t seemed to be our duty to make this small appropria ton for the coming year. We come before this congress and asked for an appropriation of $12, ,0o0, GOO, and upon the facts presented we con ffdent1y expect to receive the hearty support of every member of the house.
 Mr. Freeman is member of the committee.

CAUGHT IN TRAP; HOPED
 AND cRAWLED HOME

Ralph Arnold of Baker avenue, Groton, while out hunting Wednesday walked into a fox trap that ripped driv1rg it's sharp teeth into his leg Arnold had to work for a long time to extricafe his leg from the trap. When he finally freed himself he discovered that the trap had come together with such force that it had fractured the bone of his leg and when he attempted to stand on it he collapsed.
 The accident occurred about two miles from his home and there was no one with him. The only way he could make any progress was to hop on one foot as long as he could and then lie down in the snow and crawl.
 He alternated the hopping and crawling operation until he finally reached home almost exhausted by the pain and the fatigue of his un- usual exertionS.

 The An1ericanIzarlon committee of the National Society of the Daughters Of American Revolution, at their meet ing held in Memorial Continental hall, October IT, 1919, recommended the is- suing of Bulletin E. Quoting the Bull letin.
 Characterization became the word of the hour when statistics of the war showed to the nation the illiteracy of both foreign and native population, and the menace which it is to our civilization. The arswer to this un- happy condition Is Education.
 For this trained teachers are nec- essary, but it is found by investiga- ton that the call for trained teachers in that line is far from equa1ing the demand"
 The National chapter of D. A. R. has decided that the best work for them would be to raise money in the chapters and finance young women for this training.
 The plan of the. committee is that the state regent as chairman of her state take up this work with the chapters in their states and False a state fund to place in schools one or more young women for special train ing in this work
 
 elementary eivics, home nursing and domestic science. and must also be able to speak the language of the home she visits. Along the line of this work, a course of reading was made out by Ruth WyAys chapter, of Hartford.
 This outline of study on American ization is arranged under Topic or Group. Those of the Faith Trumbull chapter may find the following books of the reading list at the Otis library also Bulletin Two, explaining in de- tail the plans that the National D. A. R. hope to perfect:
