u. s. REORGAN|z
IS HARDING s PLAN

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.--Presi-
dent Harding soon will take. up per-
sonally the task of reorganizing gov
eminent departments.
Framed, to bring more economy
and efficiency, complete plan in
voiving abolition of some cabinet
jobs and creation of new ones will
Walter F. Brown. the presidents
representative on the congressional
reorganization committee.
After Harding goes over the plans
with Brown, they will be laid be-
fore the cabinet for discussion. At
ter revision the plan will be sent to
congress, where alterations Of a
more extensive nature are antici-
pated.
Major proposals of Brown are said
to be:
Creation of an executive secretary,
who would be virtually an assistant
to the president, relieving both the
president and his secretary of rou-
tine work.
Creation Of a department of ma
tional defense to combine the army
and navy.
Transfer of the prohibition en-
forcement division from the treas
ury to the department Of justice.
Abolition of the department of la
Dor and assimilation of most of it's
functions into a department of pub
lie welfare.
Many transfers Of bureaus from
one department to another are pro-
posed in order to correct the illogi-
cal distribution, which has grown up
in a haphaZArd Wav since the early
days of the government.
Brown favors combining the five
or more secret service bureaus main
fas al or-i~~ n Nor-tI1 &c iSaf
one general bureau of investigation,
which would be placed in the de-
partment of justice.
The coast guard would be taken
from the treasury and placed in the
navy.
The bureau of fisheries now in
the department of commerce would
be split and the functions relating
to propag cation of fish placed with
the department of agriculture, and
these involving marketing allowed
to remain with the department of
commerce

FINANCES BELIEVED
MOTIVE IN SHOOTING.

NEW YORK, Sept. 24.-Theory
that Mrs. Grace Lawes, losing the
friendship and financial assistance of
Miss Mildred Hanan, was driven to
a frenzy, which resulted in her
shooting the shoe mans daughter
and then committing suicide, was ad-
vocated today by John S. Borland,
central figure in yesterdays tragedy.
Borland-Dartmouth graduate, i'm
porter and friend of both Hiss Ha-
nan and Mrs. Lawes-advanced his
theory only after he had been pressed
to do so by Assistant District At
torney Wilson.
Borland asserted that the ending
of the friendship, carrying with it
withdrawal of Miss Hanan's financia,
assistance, had left Mrs. Lawes
nearly broke" He expressed belief
that this was followed by the ex-
cessive drinking for which Mrs.
Lawes wrote her regret in a letter
addressed to her sister in San Fran
i. cisco, and found among her posses
sions after her DEATH Then, in turn,
came the homicidal frenzy.
1t was learned that when the as
sistant district attorney attempted
to question Miss Hanan-1ying in
Brooklyn hospital fighting off death
the girl readily answered all ques-
lions except those pertaining to the
question of whether Mrs. Lawes had
owed her money
When detective asked Miss Han
an, bluntly, why the other Divorce
had shot her, the girl closed her
eyes and barely moved her head from
side to side to signify that she did
not know
Did Mr.. Borland have anything to
do with it?" asked the detective
Miss Hanan. opened her eyes wide
and. speaking quite decisively, said;
mot in the least"
This statement concerning Miss
Hanan's condition was made by one
OF the surgeons, attending her:
II don't say that she is going to
get well, for her condition is very
critical, but she is much better than
we expected"

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.-The

their campaign for legislation, of
which. they assert, the farmers of
the nation are urgently in need. First

Gated for many months by Senator
Arthur Capper, of Kansas. A ire

among the farmers of the middle

will permit cooperative marketing,

change activities, and the large ex-

where else. The pronounced oppo-
sition that has developed in some
states, notably Indiana and Illinois,
to plans for marketing grain coop

have come to believe that big bust

them in order that the, present toll

The farmer bloc" is small, but
it has been rather conspicuously sue
cessful. 1t has put through the
packer control act and the Capper-
Tincher bill, regulating the sale of
futures on grain exchanges, and al
though methods of evading this sec

according to reports from the farm

turists as a class.
To the criticism leveled against 1t,
the members of the bloc" reply that
they are only interested in getting
a square deal for the farmer. some
thing that he has not always had in
the past.
Senators Heflin, of Alabama;
Fletcher. of Florida; Ransdell, of
Louisiana; Smith, of South Caro-

up the south's representation in the

has noticed a great falling-off in the
sale of calomel. They all> give the
same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone

"Calomel is dangerous and people
know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone
is perfectly. safe and gives better
results" said "a prominent local
druggist Dodson's Liver Tone is
personally guaranteed by every drug
gist who sells it. A large bottle
costs but a few cents, and if 1t fails
to give easy relief in every case of
liver sluggishness and constipation.
you have only to ask for your money

Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasting. purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults.
Take a spoonful at night and wake
UP feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or consti-
pated bowels. 1t doesn't grippe or
cause inconvenience all the next day
like violent calomel. Take a dose
of calomel today and tomorrow you
will feel weak, sick and nauseated.
Don't lose days work! Take Dod-

both parties; there are the occasion
ally conflicting economic interests
of two sections and of the growers
of different crops to be considered.
Yet on the whole the bloc has work
ed with surprising unity. and results
in the lower house have been about
satisfactory.
The success OF the farmer group
is suggested by some labor men as
pointing the way to the most effec-
tive means of getting needed labor
legislation, but the opportunity has
not been seized. There are a few
members of congress who hold UNI
ion cards There are number of
others who are sympathetic with the
aims of organized labor.
1t is probably true that the &C
ttvities of the farm bloc are Great
ing some apprehension on the part
of interests, which want to keep ag-
r;culture under control. Rumors
crop up from time to time that the
bloc has disintegrated. but the after
recess situation finds it consistently
on the job. Despite it's success to
date, it's work has barely begun. Low
er freight rates, better mechanism
for rural credits and limitation of
the power of the Federal Reserve
board are three inns of the bloc right
now; and since certain interests dis
approve that program, the fight will
probably be a hot one. indeed.

There is nothing that so a man
or an institution to a community as that rare
quality of being there in a pinch"
People have this feeling about the News
classified advertising section. 1t means two
things:
: That almost everybody in Perth Amboy is
using the daily buying and selling service Of
fered by these classified columns, and that they
know, when a sudden emergency arises, quick
and sure results can be obtained in the same
way.
If the Evening News classified section was
not so important an everyday institution in the
life of this city, it wouldn't be worth the paper
it was printed on when time and quick re-
suits are the only things that matter.
But you CAN count on the News every time
whether you want to make a quick sale of
your automobile or recover a lost wallet-or
if you simply consult the different classified
tions as a thrift and buying guide for every
day.
When you want to use an ad of your own,
call 400 and ask for an ad taker.
