GoNGR EssMAN EXPECTS NO
 EARLY PEACE, WITH GERMANY

Congressman Richard P Freeman, who left New London Monday night for Pan anna on short vacation before returning g to Washington, predicts that it is unlike ly congress will take any action in short session in bringing about formal peace with Germany
 If any step be taken at all in this diree- ton, said Mir. Freeman, it will probably be by Senator Knox, who is expected to introduce a peace resolution. This will not be pushed, however, unless the presi- dent will agree not to veto it, according ,,to Mr Freeman Otherwise, he stated, the resolution will be held over for con sideration by a special session of the 67th congress, which will probably be called next April.
 l The only appropriations affecting Con- necticut that will be made at the short 1 session will be those for the improvement of the Connecticut river below Hartfol | and for work on the New Haven ] Bridgeport and Stamford harbors, said Mir Freeman. As to the new federal
 buildings in the Second district, he stated
 that to his knowledge there has been de- mand for none, except possibly by Stan- ford. This town ,he declared, is the only place that is really in need of new post office. Appropriations have already beer made for such buildings at Mystic and Putnam.
 It is MT. Freeman's opinion that there will be heavy reduction in appropria,
 tionsi for government employees at Wash
 ington. In all probability, he said, many workers in the capitol will be let go. H. estimates that it will require about foul 1 billion dollars to conduct the government
 next year. This is about four times as much as was required before the war, anC
 about the same amount as was appropri
 ated last year.
 The states will probably be redistricted he said, So that there will be one repre-
 sentative in congress to about every 235,
 900 persons instead of one to every 211, | 900. Under such a reapportionment. ht I said, Connecticut would have one more representative. The district figures Tn this state could be raised to 250, 1000, he de. clared, and still make way for an addi- tional congressman. The new apportieu- men. however, he raised to only 230.00G

so that none of the states will lose on represe Ht..ticii
 It is improbable, said Mir. Freeman. that any action will be taken on revenii. problems at the session next month. eN- ce3t in one instance An. effort may be made, he said, 10 amend the excess proiitf law. Some sections of the corpurat "a income tax laws must be amended, he stated
 Asked whether he looked for any change in the 18th amendment, MT. Free man said tl,at in his opinion prohibition would not come up for discussion at this | session Some action may be taken on the matter later he declared. In regard to improvement of the sub marine base at Groton, MT. Freeman said 1 he had ID knowledge as to whether an l appropriation for such work had been re- quested. In case changes were contem-
 plated at the base. he said. estimates would be submitted to Secretary of the Navy Daniels, who, if he saw fit. would
 ask tor an appropriation. Not being 8
 member of the appropriations committee Mr. Freeman said he was not familiar ] With the future status of the base. i will Congressman Gillett be reelected 1 speaker of the house by the new con
 gress?' he was asked.

Don't Spoil a Good Meal With a Bad
 Stomach

It is really a pitiful sight 10 see 50 many thousands of people worrying about what they can eat and what they can't eat.
 Dyspeptics. they call themselves. but they stretch the imagination when they do it.
 All these people need to make them healthy, cheerful and of sound ap- petite is box of Mi-O-Na Tablets.
 The stomach of a dyspeptic is over worked and run down. It needs help to digest the food, but more than that, it needs a prescription that will cleanse, renovate, strengthen and put elasticity into the stomach walls.
 Mi-O-Na is the prescription that win do this and do it so promptly that you'll wonder why you didn't try It before.
 It stops belching of gas ard distress after eating in five minutes. It Is un- doubtedly the greatest stomach tonic ever given to the public by specialist in stomach diseases. The Lee 6 Osgood Co. and leading druggists everywhere sell Ai-O-Ns on the money-back plan.
