speciA Dispatch From Every Evcnins's
Washington Correspondent.
Washington. Feb. 27.--Although, as
exclusively forecast by Every Evening
three weeks ago, the leaders in the pres
e1t Congress have decided to abandon
the program providing Tor universal and
compulsory military training, Thomas w.
Miller, former Representative IN Con-
eress from Delaware, IL going to con-
finue agitation for that system Of providing
a military household for the people OF
the United States.
Mr.. Miller, in his capacity rs legislative
representative Of the American Legion,
insists the leaders have made an error.
He says the American Legion is for the
Wadsworth bill, with some notifications,
and he regards the abandonment Of the
program as exceedingly unfortunate.
''The announcement that ~ a result
of a conference between House leaders,
legislation providing for universal military
training will be omitted from any leglsla-
tiop during the present session OF Con-
gress will not deter the American Legion
from continuing its efforts to obtain from
the Sixty-Sixth Congress some legisla-
tion which will initiate, within the next
two years, q system OF universal military
training" MIR. Miller said. However,
ne VIII u6Vc Itu1u olSuubiEs hO ItScShs
Congress has heard from the country and
the general view is that the nation does
not want the bill or anything like It.
Curiously enough, the most emphatic
protests against the proposed system
come from ex-service men, many OF whom
are members of the American Legion.
at is true that the American Legion
10 it's recent convention indorsed the
universal military training idea" said
Senator Caprer. "But the fact is, the con.
vention was dominated by commissioned
officers. The rank and file do not want
universal military training. They would
deplore such a Sstem as much as l would
The Kansas Senator then showed pile
Of letters from ex-service men IN every
part of the country, in which the writers
register strong protests.
mir. Miller is altogether wrong IN
ssIpposipg the men who served as privates
in the war want universal military train
ing," said Senator Capper. II know of
none who desire IL. We are through with
that idea and Congress will never sane
ton it,"

Why teeth discolor

There is on your teeth viscous film. You can
feel it with your tongue. It clings to teeth enters
crevices and stays. That film is the teeth's great
enemy. 1t dims them and destroys them.
The tooth brush fails to end it, for the ordinary
tooth paste cannot dissolve it. So for months be-
tween your dental cleanings it may do ceaseless
damage.
It is the fln-coat that discolors not the teeth.
Film is the basis of tartar It holds food substance
which ferments and forms acid. 1t holds the acid
in contact with the teeth to cause decay.
Millions of germs breed in it. They, with tartar,
are the chief cause of pyorrhea-a trouble which
few escape.
Dental science has for years sought a way to
Eight that film. Five years ago the way was found
and convincing tests have proved it. Now leading
dentists everywhere advise it, and millions Of
people have been led to employ it.

RADICALISM ON THE

Radical leadership has put union
labor on the defensive in California
and will again struggle for control
OF the state federation.
Weakening the cause OF labor un-
ions was shown by the small consid-
Grafton given labor In the last leg
islature
Less than ten members in both
houses voted for the legislative pro-
gram put up by the California state
federation.
On top of this the legislature en-
acted very severe law against syn
dicalism and proposes at the next
session to copy the Kansas industrial
court law.
No greater evil can befall union la
Dor than for the radical element to
get control OF state organizations.
The official labor press denounces
the radicals as bolshevistic propagan-
da directed by the third information
ais OF Moscow.
The record of only two senators
and five assemblymen in the last
California legislature standing for a
straight labor program will be dis
counted at the next session as some
of these candidates lost out in the
primaries.
