FOR THE TOWNER-
 STERLING BILL

The Arkansas Educational Associa- tion has repeatedly endorsed the Towner- Sterling bill in it's various forms first as the Smith-Towner bill and later under it's present designation as it is now pending in Congress. The Arkansas Educational Association is q powerful organization of more than 10000 teachers and citizens, closely united for the betterment of education al conditions in Arkansas and the na- ton. It is affiliated as a state organi- Zation with the National Educational Association, which for many years has been contendng against tremendous odds for a national department of edu cation with q secretary in the presi- dents cabinet and for recognition of public education as a national problem and obligation.
 F. B. Tucker, business manager of the Arkansas Educational Associati tion in n letter to T.. s. Senator Pat liar rison, says:
 This proposed legislation has been so long before Congress and the public that in its present form, we believe it has been purged of every reasonable objection and properly safeguarded with respect to the rights of the states and the various communities. As re suit, the opposition to it has narrowed down principally to those who are fundamentally and unalterably op- posed 10 public education It is grati- fying t0 sec how strongly the support for this bill has recently increased and how the opposition has been forced from cover since the issue has been made plain.
 "T am informed that the Towner- Sterling bin is now i'll the hands of the committee on the reorganization of executive departments. on which you are the sole Democratic senator, and apparently the only Southern repre- Sentatves Therefore we address you as our spokesman, and respectfully re quest of you that you use your influ ence to bring this very important mat ter before the Congress.

CT and the bark on trees is heavier and coarser. Squirrels also are said to have laid in greater suplies of nuts than usual. Farther south, corn husks are said to be thicker and pin peathers on chickens less numerous All these signs portend length and severity of winter, prophets say.
 But there is one comforting note Many of the birds delayed their mi grafton until later than usual and occasionally a staggler, who evidently is disposed to make the best of it, is seen. This is taken to mean that winter will be less severe than usual Violets still are blooming in sheltered and artifcially warmed places and now and then a rose, and more ire quently a belatcd aster is seen.
 Strictly on results to date, it begins to look as though the forcasters who decided against the long and severn winter, have better chances og being sustained by the clements. whatever fur, fin, feather and corn husks may in dicate to the contrary.

YOUR TEETH
 The Human Machine
 By Rea Proctor McGee, D. D. S., NJ. D., Editor "Oral Hygiene"
Have you ever considered what

Have you ever cOHSlueFeu What il remarkable machine you are?
 Think of the wonderful mechanism of your hand, your wrist, your arm Think of the powerful muscles, the slender tendons, the rigid bones, deli cate nerves, the efficiently distributed arteries and veins. All of these and the rest of your marvellous body do their work at your slightest thought.
 In addition to all of this, your bodily machine repairs nearly all of its own injuries, takes care of its own growth and renews its worn-Out cells. Nature make q complete effort to provide you with perfect means to carry on your business and to enjoy the pleasurers of life.
 In order for your body 10 do these things it must have fuel in the shape of food and it is up to your mouth to receive and prepare this fuel II your food is of the very purest and most appetizing variety, carefully pre- pared and tastefuly served, it would seem that that would be all that is necessary.
 But if that same pure food is placed in an infected mouth and is then thoroughly corrupted, by having mix ed with it many types of bacteria and of the poisons resulting from bacteria, would it not seem that the damage 10 your system would be very serious?
 The condition known as neuritis, from which many people who use their hands in highly trained work, such as telegraphers, tYpists, pianists-fre- quently suffer, is caused by overwork and infection. The overwork reduces the vitality and resistance of the nerves and their sheaths. and infection in the great ma jority of cases comes from abseesses about the teeth.
 This is ony one of the many painful and serious Arrangements of your body machine that can come from diseases in the mouth.
 If you owned fine piece of machin- cry that got out of order. you would call in first good general machinist and then men especially skilled in the various parts of the machine that required especial training to under stand properly.
 Why not be as careful of your own body? The mechanical principles upon which you are built and by which you live are just as true as those upon which you run your automobile
 Blu tas your body is the most com plcated machine with which you will ever come in contact, it requires q very high order of intelligence in the garage man to diagnose your troubles.
 But no diagnosis is considered com, plete these days without the advice of that specialist upon the mouth-the dentist.

FAVORS RAILROAD
0WNE D DSTEAMER rs
(By The Associated Press.)

Washington, larCn 3,-lf rail-
roads were permitted to own and
operate steamships in foreign trade
this would contribute to general
prosperity by helping to make the
railroads prosperous according to
opinion in administration circles, it
was said today at the White House.
The nations greatest need, 1t was
declared, was reduction in the cost
of transportation, coupled with the
upbuilding of a merchant marine
and the stimulation Of trade.
Foreign competition could be
met and foreign commerce built up,
it was said, by permitting trans
continental railroads to own ships
engaged in trade with the orient
and this, it was added, probably
would bring about reductions in
transportation rates. In addition,
it was asserted, If American rail-
roads owned steamships in interna-
tional service, they could obtain
much of the immigrant traffic now
being carried largely in foreign
vessels.
In some instances, it was said,
immigrants are being landed at
Canadian ports and make the rail
section of their journey largely on
lines in the Dominion, leaving only
short hauls for the American roads.
1t also was made known in Off
cial circles today that the admins
tration saw no objection to sale of
shipping board vessels to foreign
ers, provided they would agree to
operate the ships under the United
States flag. Americans should, of
course, be given preference in such
GALES, 1t was added, and the hope
was expressed that they would take
advantage of the opportunity.

Washington, March 3.-Presi-
dent Harding took a hand in the
army strength discussion today,
summoning members of the house
army appropriation subcommittee
into conference after a talk with
General Pershing. IT, subcom-
mittee yesterday agreed tentatively
to cut the army enlisted strength
for next year from the authorized
10000 to 115,000. After the White
House conference it was disclosed
that an administration policy for
q force of not less than 10000
had been formulated and express
ed. The present actual strength is
about $4,000.
General Pershlng would not dis
cuss the nature of his talk with the
president, but when the summons
to Chairman anthony and his as
sociates followed, there was no ef-
fort to conceal that General PERISH
ing had felt it necessary to appeal
to the president gainst the cut in
the army the committee had In
mind.
AS active head of the army Gem
eral Pershing is known to feel that
not alone the efficiency of the new
military policy worked out under
the national defense act of 1920
was threatened. but that even the
postwar scheme to combine the
regulars, national guard and Or
ganized reserve into one army
would BE- impaired il the regular
service was further reduced before
the new system had been perfected
and was in operation.

BARKING DOGS
SHOW Staying
OF YOUNG LADY

TarrytoWn, N. Y, March g.
Barking dogs today disclosed the
murder of a young woman whose
body the neck hacked with a pen
knife, was found at the deserted,
dead end of Jones avenue, near
John D. Rockefeller's estate at
Pocantico Hills.
Mrs. Joseph Taylor, annoyed by
the persistent barking of the dogs,
looked through a pair of opera
glasses, saw the body and notified
the police.
The condition of the road indl-
Gated that the woman had been
slain after a struggle. Mrs. Pat
rick Turner, who lives a few hun
dred feet from the scene, told the
police she had observed an auto
mobile headed toward the end OF
the street last night. A short time
later, she heard muffled walls and
later noted that the automobile
had retraced its route.
The body, which had not been
identified tonight, was that of a
woman about 35, probably of Ital-
ian extraction, Coroner Fitzgerald
said.

tBy The Associated PresaJ

London, March (by the Asso-
clated Press) Premier Lloyd
Georges threat to resign has been
suspended at the urgent solicita-
tion of his unionist colleagues in
the cabinet. according to an au-
thoritative statement tonight, but
no justification for its withdrawal
is said to exist as yet.
Official denial Is made that any
exact time limit has been fixed for
receiving appearances of loyalty to
the premier from the adherents of
Sir George Younger, the unionist
leader, although it is added that
obviously the tension had not been
extended definitely
Meanwhile there is no indica-
tion of any move on the part of
the unionist party to dethrone
Younger as its head. No meeting
of the unionist party has been call
ed, and the general opinion Is that
the only happening will be that
the unionist ministers in the cabi-
net--Arthur j. Balfour and Austen
Chamberlain-may publicly re-
prove Younger for his tactics. as
Lord Birkenhead already has done,
Speaking at oxford today. Aus

the unionist ministers had request

of the government.
Mr. Chamberlain said that when
Premier Asquith resigned during

Mr.. Lloyd George then said that
IL, at any time, he felt that the
country's interests would be better

in favor of either Mr.. Balfour or
Mr.. Bonar Law.

Grafton in competition to those sub
mitted by Henry Ford and the Ala
bama Power company for purchase
and lease of the Muscle Shoals
projects.
The committee devoted both
these sessions today to an investi-
cation of the Engstrum offer, re-
celving Mr.. Engstrum first for
brief introduction of his bid and
later examining Mr.. Butler, who
appeared as legal adviser for the
North Carolinan.
Mr.. Butler said nitrate and fer
tilizer production viewed in the
sense of their relation to the ma
tonal defense, was the prime object
of the offer he spoke for, although
hydro-electric development would
not be neglected.
While the former senator did not
refer to the Ford offer by name. he
argued strongly against congress
sional action which would permit
the, principal waterpower project
in the south to be controlled by a
private concern. New York state
had permitted Niagara to be mon
opolized, he said, and the people
there were up in arms now crying
for power they could not get.
In reply to questions by Repre-
sentative Stoll, democrat, of South
Carolina, Mr.. Butler said the cor
poration to be created under the
Engstrum plan, would Capitalize

ernment suggested to assure the
proper execution of the offer.
The only financial consideration
the proposed corporation would re-

veloping the properties, 1t was ex-
planned, would be from the sale of
power not required to operate the
nitrate plants. from the sale of
fertilizers and nitrates and the five

construction jobs.

Washington. March Support
Of President Harding's plan for an
American merchant marine was
voiced by leaders in the shipping
world, Chairman Lasker and Rear
Admiral William S. Benson, re-
tired, former chairman Of the ship
ping board, at the opening session
Of the annual convention today of

ator Wesley L. Jones Of Washing
ton, chairman of the senate COM
merce committee, and IT. II. Ray
mond, president Of the Clyde-Mal-
lory lines and president Of the
American Steamship owners as
sociation, discussed the general
shipping situation.
Admiral Benson told the several
hundred delegates there were evils
which were preventing the proper
development of the shipping in
dustry and that the fact must be
faced that certain portion "of our
shipping is tainted with foreign in
terests." He added that allowance
should be made. however. for for
eign interest in American shipping,
because these foreign interests
came to the support of American
shipping when Support was actu-
ally and badly needed"
Mr.. Lasker declared that without
a we'll balanced and adequate mer-
chant marine the country could not
be properly developed
p. A. s. Franklin OF the Inter-
national Mercantile Marine corpo-
ration, and w. A. Hartman Of the

view as to the Importance of a
merchant marine. The proposed

was the best that has been before
congress in the thirty years he has
been identified with shipping in
terests and he added;
"It has a splendid chance to pass
and deserves the support of every
body who has the interest of the
nation at heart.
THE great difficulty today con-
fronting the shipping industry"
said Mr.. Franklin, "is that there
are too many steamers, not enough
steamship companies and not
enough people with their money
invested in the business"

DRUG ADDICTION
INCREASES UNDER
PROHIBITION LAW
tBy The Assoclnted Press.l

New York, March "a tremend-
Gus increase in drug addiction in
Brooklyn since prohibition became
a law was shown in figures given
out today by Bryd S. Coler, COM
missioner Of public welfare. He
set the blame primarily upon the
dry laws and the manner of their
enforcement. Alcoholism also has
increased since the eighteenth
amendment was adopted, the fig
ures disclosed.
Bootleggers, the commissioner
asserted, have worked under semi
protection inasmuch as govern
ment officials have cat no time
been sincere in the enforcement of
the law and in treating spirituous
liquors as drugs and medicines"
Commissioner Coler said the on
ly remedy for the spread of drug
seemed to him to be mod
ification of the Volstead law to
permit use of light wines and beer
He said that for the first few
months under prohibition it seemed
the millennium had come, as there
was an almost perpendicular drop
in every kind of dependency but
that Conditions began to change
as soon as the public decided that
the law was not to be obeyed."
