Hoover Echoes GreyinHis Stand
Against Treaty Referendum

Mr. Hoover in his speech at Johns Hopkins university oh
the League takes exactly the stand OF Lord Grey
the British ambassador That is United States should
make its reservations provided they are MID reseNao''
and 90 into the League OF Nations in hurry
And Mr.. Hoover further states that this most important
question of abandoning all the previous policies OF ms eou
of nonnerference European affairs and committing inc
States interference in European affairs and engagement IN
European entangng alliances should be decided upon WITHOUT
referendum of the people.
Mr. Hoover definitely and distinctly opposes referendum
decide this crucial question which vitality affects them ana
their beloved country and which calls for complete reversal
the successful policies of the past l4O years
The American people, according to Mr. Hoover, must TO,
be allowed to decide what is the right thing 10 ao pu' Loa
Grey the English ambassador, decide what the right
thing to do.
And Mr. Hoover twelve years legal resident OF Great
Britain whose fortune in British enterprises and
whose friends and connections all British follows along al
British ambassadors heels and supports the British am
bassadors attitude.
Why Mr. Hoover think that the British ambassador
better fitted to pass judgment question so Va 10 e
American people and to the American nation than the american
people are?
Or why Hoover think that he himself is better
judge important question than the American
people?
Mr. Hoover may be willing to say to which political
party he belongs until he finds which political party may De
willing nominate him. but may safely be said in view OF MS
opposition free expression of the will of the people that
he certainly does belong properly the Democratic party or
party which Represents peends to represent the pop
ular will.
An article Saturday Evening Post advocates that both
of the old parties get together and conformity nominate someone
1t delcately refrans from mentioning the name OF the
candidate, Mr. Hoover.
This newspaper earnestly suggests that is much more
important for all true Americans get together irrespective OF
parties and good American who his
country lives in his country believes in his country and
guided in his political by the British ambassador or by
any foreign interests influence.

NO PLACE FOR HOOVER
In G. O.P., SAYS PENROSE
Former Food Administrator Insulted
Republican Party, Declares
Senator.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. c4.-Herbert
Hoover will never be considered as
Presidential possibility by the Repub-
lican national convention, declares
Senator Boies Penrose. He charges
Hoover "insulted" the Republican
party.
"Any good Republican can be nomi-
mated for President and can defeat n
Democrat" said Penrose just before
leaving in his private car for Stuart
Fla. where he will remain until April
to recuperate from a long illness.
But Mr.. Hoover Is neither good
nor a bad Republican" he continued
He is no Republican at all. In the
last Congressional election, although
he had received the general confidence
OF all the American people in the ad-
ministration of a fund amounting to
several hundred million dollars, he
came out in a partisan statement in
sulting the Republican party by urG-
ing the return of Democratic Con
gress harmonious to the program laid
out by President Wilson"

an interview given by wireless tele-

The interview follows: The allies

tack any one. Now We are awaiting
the allies decision to give up inter-

WHITE PLAGUE CAMPAIGN
TO HAVE SEPARATE SEAL

Christmas seals to be sold next
December will feature the double
barred cross, the emblem of the ma
tional campaign against tuberculo-
sis. instead OF the American Red Cross
nouncement made by the National Tu-
as formerly. according to an an.
berculosis Association. Coupled with
this announcement was the informa-
ton that the American Red Cross has
formally withdrawn from participa-
ton in the Red Cross seal sale and the
tuberculosis movement and that in the
future the annual educational and
financial Christmas campaign will be
with a distinctively tuberculosis seal.
The Red Cross seal, which has been
the means OF support of the voluntary
agencies engaged in the fright against
tube rculosis throughout the United
States for over eleven years has
raised over S10.00O,0O0 for this cause.
In disseminating it's cooperative re
lationship with the American Red
Cross, Dr. Livingston Farrand, chair
man of the central committee of the
Red Cross, states that the circum-
stances make IL inadvisable to con-
tinue the use of the name and symbol
of the Red Cross, but that the tuber-
culosis seal to be put out next Christ
mas by the National tuberculosis
Association, will be recognized by the
American Red Cross as the lincal
descendant OF the Red Cross.

With New Remedy.

NEW YORK. Feb. 24-It was an
nounced yesterday that serum saved
the life OF Lena Delbane. eight years
old, after six members OF her family
had died from eating poisonous ripe
olives. and that the remedy was acct
dentalIy discovered by veterinarians
while treating sick horses.
Late in January Mr.. and Mrs. Paul
Delbane and four OF their six chill

their home suffering from olive

simultaneously with the above do
velopments in the Hoover boom
which political sharps here inss:
must end for all time the claims that
the wartime Food Administrator Is
President Wilson's own pick for the
Presidency, comes word from the
Capitol that both Democrats and Re-
publicans agree that nothing now can
keep the treaty out of the campaign,
come what may.
Also from the South, and certain
other parts of the country, news has
reached Washington that Hoover 5

before the San Francisco convention.

1t is from this combination ~

say nothing could prevent Hoover'an

Comment Is Various.
At the Capitol Senators today com
mented veriously upon Hoover's lat
est declaration. Senator Ashurst,
Democrat. said:
"The speech is the utterance OF a
practical, fearless man. There are
many politicians who hope the treaty
will be an issue in the campaign, so
that they will have some avenue to
escape discussing embarrassing do
nestle questions of vital import"
Senator Mcclellan, Democrat, of
Tennessee, declared:
The treaty is in the campaign. 1t

would be impossible to follow Mr..
Hoover's suggestions. As an issue, |
believe the people will demonstrate

Senator Borah. Republican. OF
Idaho stated that the treaty is al
ready in the campaign, and in the
campaign beyond the power OF any
man to withdraw it. Mr.. Hoover is
simply misinformed as to the situa-
ton. The question of ratification
will be determined by the American
people themselves and not by Mr..
Hoover or any other single man"

Herbert Hoover has placed him
self squarely at odds with President
a Wilson on the treaty question and
( by so doing threatens the Democratic
convention at San Francisco next
June with one of the hottest fights
on record if not an actual split.
This is the Interpretation put upon

cratic side regardless of what the
I wearer himself has to say Of not be-

which he said that unless the pact
could be ratified without changes

Vicks Acts Both Externally
and Internally

X7ICKS VAPORUB is the discovery of North
v Carolina druggist, L. Richardson, who found a way
to combine the standard, time tested remedies -
Menthol, Camphor, Turpcntne, Eucalyptus, Thyme
Juniper in save form, that when Vicks Is
applied to the body, these ingredients vaporized
by the body heat
INTERNALLY, these vapors inhaled with each breath
all night long, carry the medication direct to the air
passages and lungs
EXTERNALLY, Vicks is absorbed through and stimu-
lates the skin, attracting the blood to the affected parts
and aiding the vapors inhaled to relieve the nharn-
nation congestion.
How the Use of Vcks Has Grown
Starting with the customers of Mr. Richardson's retail
drug store, the of Vcks has increased county by
county, state by state, until more than II million
jars used annually practically one jar for every
family in the United Staes-and this in spite of the fact
that Vcks is still treatment to many people in the
North end West Once used, Vicks is friend for life
it is so easily appled-so quick in its results.

DIRECTIONS FOR THE USE
Of VICKS

Vapors Important For diseases OF
the piratory organs, such as colds,
large part of the value of Vicks lies IN
its vaporizing qualities. Therefore,
whenever Vicks is applied over the
throat and chest, care should be taken
to leave the clothing loose around the
neck and the bed clothes arranged in
the form of q funnel, so that the vapors
arising may be freely inhaled.
Hot Wet Cloths -In cases of very
severe colds, sore throat, coughs, incip-
lent pneumonia, etc, hot, wet towels
should be applied over the throat and
chest to open the pores Of the skin be-
fore applying Vicks.

colds and lung troubles. Fresh air does
not cause colds it strengthens the lungs,
enabling the system to throw OH eolds-
Asthma - Vicks is not q "cne" for
asthma-so far as we know, there Is no
cure. In many cases, however, Vicks
does give relief. Rub it we'll over the
spinal column, from the neck to the
hips to relieve the nervous tension.
Then apply freely over throat and chest
at bed time and cover with hot hannels.
Renew frequently and always have the
covers loose, % that the vapors may be
freely inhaled. Also melt Vicks in q
spoon and inhale the vapors and apply
q little up the nostrils-
Bronchitis, Sore Threat, Colds In the
Chest-If q severe case, FIRST apply

. half teaspoonful Of salt in q pint OF
warm water and snuff up the nostrils
