only TO be offset by vigorous opposition
from New York bankers and business
men who believed that America as q
creditor nation should not erect a tar
if wall which would keep American
ships from carrying return eargoes.
The truth IS the administration has
discovered that the export trade of the
United states Is not an insignificant
factor In business revival and that
ways and means must be found not
only to finance but to stimulate inn
ports. To those who have. ,contended
that with the improvement in interna-
tional exchange and the rise in the pur-
chasing powe~ of Europe, American
producers would again ENJOY the world
trade they have been having in the last
few years. the tariff has seemed like an
anchronism. The United States cham
her of commerce has on many occasions
pointed out this difficulty.
No Blanket Protection
The meaning of VIII Hays's speech
therefore Is simply that the admins
tration will eventually write a pIrma-
nent tariff bill to protect industries
that need protection but it will not

and will not be disposed of as hastily
as was the emergency tariff. The
chances are that the disarmament con

WASHINGTON, Sept. S.-The death
knell of tariff legislation this year has
been sounded President Harding still
expresses the hope that congress may
pass tariff measure this year but the
true state of administration feeling
about what will happen is expressed by
Will Hays, postmaster general, who
after long conference at the White
House the other day prepared speech
for delivery in Cleveland, which has
just been released and contains this
Significant predictions:
What Will Hays Says
Referring to one phase of the activ
ity at Washington, peculiarly economic
The tariff. To thoughtful men there
must be approval of ii certain hesita-
tion and disposition to be cautious and
a determination to be surefooted in the
consideration of this subject. 1t | were
to attempt to express Il summing up of
the present state of mind of congress
and thoughtful men about the tariff, it
would seem to me that it amounts to a
feeling that the present year Is not d
tariff bin to last for many years to
come. Conditions throughout the world
are too chaotic to be able to foretell eN-
actly what Is needed The very basic
conditions ON which a tariff is built,
namely the cost of manufacturing III
various European countries and rela-
tiun to our own cost of manufacture
and the value of the currency of the va
rious European countries with relation
to the value of our own currency Is at
the present moment as hUctuatlng az
quicksand and as untorseeable IN the
future as the weather. dependable
tariff built upon such a foundation Is
difficult, of course. 1t has been thought
by many that we could overcome these
handieaps by IA device which we called
American valuation, ard which pro-
vided that all customs duties should be
estimated upon the value of goods at
the time when they arrive in the United
States and in terms of American
money Looking carefully into this, it
has been thought that this device might
not overcome the handicap and further
own interests The end of it has been
that we have appropriated 100000 to
investigate this device and otherwise
determine what might be done to help
us toward writing a permanent tariff.
These conditions of tluctuation and in
stability which make the writing of a
permanent tariff so difficult at the mo-
ment may in some measure be relieved
after the disarmament conference has
taken place and we have accomplished
steps which the President has in mind
Tor the adjustment of our international
relations. -

Stomach trouble is almost always fol-
lowed by a complication of diseases. One
of the first being an overworked liver,
with all the symptoms of biliousness, fol-
lowed in turn with headaches. coated
tongue, nausea, dizzy spells, pain in the
back, palpitatiOn of the heart and other
distressing symptoms. Sooner or later
the kidneys will become involved and
that is just why these danger signals
should be needed in time. 4 wise man
puts out the fire before there is too much
destruction; the same theory should APP
ply to stomach trouble.
Gas in the stomach means fermentation
instead of digestion; decay. instead of
ons, which are absorbed by the blood, and
known as autO-intoxication or self pOis-
oning. This is also why we develop aci-
dosis. which brings on so many compile
cations such as rheumatism, hard, Iilg
of the arteries. high blood pressure and
other conditions, which may mean p"r-
manpnt loss of health. AcidnsiS i or e

if we have stomach trouble. however
slight, we are foolish indeed if we do net
take prompt steps to correct it.
If we are not fit a. fiddle in the
morning: if we don't feel better than
when we went to- bed; if our breath is
offensive ; and we have that bad taste in
the mouth; nature has set the danger sig
mails for us and we cannot afford to ne
elect the warning that she gives us. That
is just why the demand for Tanlac, the

stFuctive tonic has broken all Worlds

learned that it probably provides the
surest. safest. and quickest remedy for
all such troubles. and millions upon mil
lions have taken it with the most aston-
fishing and gratifying results @s> -
Tens of thousands of men and women
of all ages and in all walks of life af
fiicted with stomach, liver and kidney
disorders, some of them of long standing,
as well as thousands of weak, thin. ner
vous men and women apparently on the
verge of collapse have testified publicly
that they have been fully restored to
their normal health, strength and weight
by its use. Still others who seemed fairly
well. yet who suffered with indigestion,
headaches, shortness of breath, dizzy
spells. sour. gaSsy stomachs. coated
tongues. foulneSs of breath, constipation,
bad complexion, loss of appetite, sleep
lessneSs at night and terribly detected, de-
pressed feelings state that they have been
entirely relieved of these distressing
symptoms and restored to health and
happiness By Tanlac

essential and vitality important part of
the Tanlac Treatment wherever conStipa-
ton is present.
You cannot hope to get satisfactory
results from the Tanlac Treatment with
out first establishing a free and regular
