BOSTON, Feb. l3-The latest of a

Has He Found a
Cure for Asthma ?
Simple Prescription Gives Instant Re-
lief. Makes Breathing Easy

In New England, where Bronchial
Asthma, Bronchitis and other diseases
of the throat and lungs are so preva-
lent, remarkably successful results are
being reported following the use of a
new form of treatment known as Oxi
daze, a physician S prescription.
Oxidaze is a harmless but powerful
combination of curative essential oils
concentrated and compressed into a
small tablet. One of these tablets slow
ly dissolved before going to bed seems
to have the effect of releasing the mus
cular construction of the bronchial
tubes, opening up the air passages and
regulating spasmodic lung action. This
enables the patient to breathe easily
and naturally while lying down and to
get comfortable night s sleep.
So much interest has been shown
that local druggists, including Brat
tleboro Drug CO., have secured a small
supply and state that they are author
lied to refund the money paid for the
first package if in any case this new
treatment fails to give relief. Oxidaze
is pleasant to take, contains no harm
full, habit forming drugs and is not ex-
pensive This makes their test an easy
materially.

WOOD IN FAVOR
OF RESERVATIONS
Thinks They Properly Safe
guard the Interests of
America
TREATY SHOULD
BE RATIFIED
Sentiment Of the People Is Sufficiently
Clear-Is In Favor of Well Estab-
liShed Foreign Policy of Government
Should Promote Peace

CHICAGO, Feb ID General Leonard
Wood, replying to the request Of Senator
William f. Borah for views of Republican
presidential candidates on the league Of
nations and the peace treaty, said he
believed we should accept the league Of
nations as modified and safeguarded by
existing Lodge reservations.
General Wood declared that, in his
opinion the people at large had indi-
Gated they favored the treaty, proyid
ed Americas rights were fully safe
guarded, and that he did not believe it
necessary to delay consideration for a
general election.
The reply follows: Il believe that we
should accept the league of nations as
modified and safeguarded by existing
Lodge reservations-resery that
Americanize it and safeguard our tradi-
tional policies, reservations which leave
America absolutely free and untramelled
! to follow the will of her own people in
all questions Of foreign and domestic pol
icy.
II, Of course, at all times favor get
! ting the views of the people of the coun-
| try where it is practicable. However, in
view Of the fact that the people have
clearly indicatcd-as | see it-that they
are in favor Of the treaty, if our tradi-
/ tional policies, interests and freedom of
action are fully safeguarded, it seems I'm
necessary to delay this most important
question for a general election, in which
their views could hardly be more de
cisively expressed than they have already
BEEN
with reference to your question as to
my views on the foreign policy of this
government, / am in favor of and shall
continue to be in favor of the welle stab-
lished foreign policy of this government,
which conseryes and promotes the inter
ests of our own country. l do not think
this treaty, with the reservations, impairs
that policy 1t does not entangle us; it
| leaves us free to exercise our own iudg
ment; it is temporary if we choose to
] have it so; we can retire on two years
notice.
One aim Of Americas foreign policy
has always been the promotion of the
peace of the world In order to accom-
plish this end her people must be free
in any situation to stand for righteous
ness according to their Judgment. As an
important means to that end, instru
mentalities should be created and devel
oped by which, consistently with thi,
freedom, the momentum of the other free
and peaceloving nations of the world
acting concurrently with Us, can be adj
dcd to our efforts.

went into the leather business, and
still later engaged in TIE shoe bust
ness. His biggest shoe factory is at
Lestershre, \. Y. He is one of the
biggest leather men in the world and
ran several tanneries in Massachusetts
and Maine. He was regarded as n rail-
lionaire and made some of the biggest
deals in leather and shoes of any man
III his line.
lie was director in many banks in
Massachusetts and New York and OF
the Chase National Bank of New Yorl

was unbounded, but he seldom let hi!

 In the senate the bill will be re- ferred to the immigration committee and action will be deferred until the committee has concluded hearings and investigated thoroughly all phases of the immigration and natur- aliZatiOn question.

FORDNEY URGES LEGISLATION n
 REDUCE COUNTRY'S TAX BURDEN
 AND L|GHTEN |Ts INDEBTEDNESS

WASHINGTON. Dec. 13.-Concern of congressional leaders as to abili- ty of the treasury to meet the ST. 500,000,0G of war debts maturing within the next two and half years was indicated by Chairman Fordney of the ways and means committee today both in the house and at the opening of hearings by his commit tee on the revision of revenue legis- lation
 The ways and means committee chairman frankly expressed doubt as to whether the estimate of a four billion annual tax levy would be sui ficient to meet the requirements of the government over the period of maturing treasury certificates and Victory notes. As a solution he ad- vocated refunding into long term bonds of the certificates now aggre- gating $2,350, ,000 as well as of the first issue of war saving stamps and the Victory note issue.
 Adoption of such solution, Ford ney declared. probably would enable reduction of taxes below Secretary Houston's estimate of four billion dollars. It also. he said. would per init tax levy for several years suf- fcient only to cover current fiscal needs of the government and inter- est on the public debt and sinking funds operation
 The first witness before the com mittee at the tax revision hearing. however. disagreed with Fordnev on me proposal. In reply to questions by Representative Longworth. Re publican of Ohio Thomas s. Adams. treasury tax expert and economist. said the program of the treasury ap- pedred sufficient revenues to take care or the maturing obligations ex- cept the saving stamps which would be paid through the sale of other is sues or such stamps as each yearly issue falls due. He added. however. that the treasury estimates for taxa ton could stand no reduction if the program were to be carried through and the maturing obligations met.
 politicians entered into the dis cussions of the methods to be used Tn paying off the war debt when the committee reached the subject later m the day.
