America has In her warehouses
and on her farms today eighteen
months food supply for the entire
American people," said Herbert
Hoover. chairman of the European
Relief Council in his speech at Bos-
ton. I'VE have q harvest coming in
again within another eight months.
Our shelves are overloaded with
clothing. our warehouses with raw
material: we have ample coal and
our people are warmly housed. We
might have some room for despond-
lncy In America IL our situation were
that OF any OF the countries of East
ern or Central Europe. II we had
but i've TO seven months food SUD.
ply with the harvest eight months
away; II. our children were under
nourished: n we were not possessed
of the essential food for children; IL
they ware under clad without the ma.
teriai with which to remedy IL: and
~ such care as they do receive were
the charity of foreign people we
might have right to complain. II
we wore ravaged by conta gious dis.
ease; H. we were short of coal. II our
currency were broken down; IL we
had not one atom Of national or pri-
vate credit with which to buy the
essential products from abroad then
We would have a right to be de.
spondent.
There Is sor ewhere a weak link
In the economic or the social or the
political system of the world as a
whole when w,s can contemplate
American warehouses = bursting. with
food and raw material. our farmers
unable to sell II at their cost of pro-
dnction. and yet people within three
hours Of comm unication with us in
the midst Of starvation and suffering
for these very materials
There are nearly seven million
automobiles In the United States and
we have but three and a half million
Invisible guests. SO long as any per-
son I'm this nation can entertain an
automobile he csn entertain an inyis-
ibie guest. This nation is spending a
billion dollars annually maintaining
these automobiles, another billion dol.
lara annually on Ice cream, cosmetics
and chewing gum. and O. few billion
more on tobacco and other things and
u has not reached the situation which
warrants failure in the purchase of
happiness Of these, children at a
price OF thirty-three million dollars.
The effort OF these associations
comprises today the only practical
service that the United States IN rem
. dering to Europe. 1t IL the only ef-
Tort being made In the world today
by any one nation towards any 9TH
er nations or moral and real support.
IL In a protection TO your children
and to my children In the future
that they should not be infected by a
pass of moral and OF physical de-
generates from Europe. The planting
of the American flag In the hearts
OF these 3,50o,OO0 children Is a service
To your children and to mine far
greater than battIeships and we are
asking for the cost OF one great bat
tlesbip."

Advised Her to Try Tru-

able Benefits.

Il was discouraged because I'd
tried so many medicines without
getting relief from my liver trouble
and rundown system-in fact. I'd
lost faith in medicines when l be-
gan using Trutona, but l must say
that Trutona has done more for
me in a week than all the others
had DONE" was the remarkable
statement made a few days ago by
Mrs. Martha Heath. so years old,
who lives at 4SS Fourth avenue,
Moline.
I'D suffered from liver trouble
for years." she continued, land
lately I'd been feeling so weak and
nervous and had a soreness in my
stomach and bowels. l seemed to
be getting worse all the time. and
although I tried many different
remedies, none OF them reached
my case.

FAILURES BLASTED ALL
HOPES Of MOLINE LADY

Zone Of my neighbors, telling
me. how much Trutona had helped
him, advised me to try the medi-
cine, and I'm certainly glad.I did
now. Why, only yesterday l walk
ed nearly twenty blocks. and that's
something positively couldn't
have done a week ago. I'm gain
ing in strength every day, it seems,
and-that soreness has almost en-
tirely vanished from my stomach
and bowels. l feel so much better
in general way, too. Trutona is
certainly a grand medicine and
firmly believe it should be kept in
every home"
Scores Of Rock Island and Moline
people, who have recently gained
remarkable benefits from Trutona,
in spite of the fact that many 9TH
er remedies had previously failed
to help them, now realize that this
famous tonic is far different from
the average proprietary prepara-
ton. No matter how many rene
dies you may have tried, if YOU
are still suffering from stomach,
liver. kidney or bowel troubles, 90
to Schlegel's drug store today and
buy a bottle Of this famous tonic,
Trutona.-(Adv.)

The chief difference between this plan and the League of
Nations that the ocaed association would have
written constitutions That is weak spot in the
scheme because in heabsence of specific agreement
ong the nations there would naturally be much for
tanty and misunderstanding However the world needs

good faith there every to expect Once
formed the association might easily find of correcting its
defects 1t be mentioned in passing however that the r
feconclabes find to cricse in the plan than
they found in the Versailles pact If they sincere in what
they said about the league covenant they will not accept such
