ANNIVERSARY OF ONE WHO
KEPT FAITH

since George Washington was born
have witnessed marvellous changes
in the material conditions Of the
world. AS young man following
the vocation Of land surveyor he
traversed the Virginia wilderness.
Ones Imagination may easily picture
his bewilderment were he recalled
to earth and required to traverse 1t
now. With regard to the spiritual
conditions one may doubt whether
the change has been so striking.
In his inaugural address, Wash
ington said: NO people can be
bound to acknowledge the invisible
hand which. conducts the affairs of
man more than the people of the
United States. Every step by which
they have advanced to the character
OF an indere ndent nation seems to
have been distinguished by some
token of providential agency"
On the evening of February 20.
1902. our ambassador to England,
speaking in London at the Pilgrims
dinner, the occasion of welcoming
the return of Mr.. Balfour from the
Washington Conference, said: "To
night l rejoice nightly in the be-
lief that the invisible. but impelling
forces in the air. which have so long
sust; led us Britons and Americans,
have at last been supplemented and
strengthened immeasureably by the
discovery Of complete mutually of
interest. self interest. if you like,
upon the face Of the earth. We
stand now on solid ground. To each
blessed country the other has been
revealed in all its intelligence, fair
ness and honor. and the sight, in The
eyes of God and man. is good.
at was not your tact, SIR" he said
to Balfour, that won your tri-
umphs: It was your truth. Your
ordeal, ! ventured to predict on the
eve Of your departure. would not
be OF battle. but Of faith. Such it.
proved to be. You kept faith; so
did we. You will continue to keep
faith: so will We"
It is peculiarly fitting on this an
niversary of the birth of Washing
ton to recall the manner in which
he kept the faith with his country,
20 recognize the profound obligation
he thus laid on the American people.
il Is helpful on these occasions to
;hink OF Washington that winter at
Valley Forge. faced with enmities
and jealousies. with loss of prestige,
his troops kept together only by faith
In their leader. And so it was by
keeping the faith America is en-
abled to become the mighty power
which can command the faith and
support of that England, mightier
today than when she set a price on
the head of Washington: and the
name of the city which bears his
name is given to the greatest peace
gathering ever assembled to discuss
international affairs.

KEEP URIC ACID
OUT OF JOINTS.
Tells rheumatism Sufferers to Eat
Less Meat and Take Salts

rheumatism Is easier to avoid than
to cure, states a well-known author
ity. We are advised to dress warm
ly; keep the feet dry; avoid expo
sure; eat less meat, but drink plenty
of good water.
rheumatism is a direct result of
eating too much meat and other rich
foods that produce uric acid which is
absorbed into the blood. 1t is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it out in
the urine:. the pores of the skin are
also a means of freeing the blood Of
this fmpurity. In damp and chilly
cold weather the skin pores are closed
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work, they become weak and sluggish
and fail to eliminate the uric acid
which keeps accommodating and circu-
lating through the system. eventually
settling in the joints and muscles
causing stiffness, soreness and pain
called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put a table
spoonful in a glass of water and drink
before breakfast each morning for
week. This is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys to
normal action. thus Kidding the blood
of these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive. harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
anC lemon juice. combined with litha
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
eumatism-Adv.

BROTHERHOOD CHIEF.
TAKES ISSUE WITH
DAUGHERTY'S STAND
BY HARRY G. BAKER
fRY limited PreSsl

CLEVELAND. Ohio, Sept. 2.-D. B.
Robertson, president of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen and En-
ginemen, today took issue with Attor-
ney General Harry NJ Daugherty, who
yesterday defended the open shop"
in applying in a Chicago court for an
injunction against the shopmen's
strike.
Robertson declared that a Labor
Day message he wrote Aug. 28," at
tacking the open shop, must stand
as written" 1t was to have been made
public Monday.
In this message the brotherhood
chief attacked advocates Of the open
shop" as unjust and un-Ameucan. -
He predicted the loss of the ''open
shop movement. He urged the un-
ions to stand solidly against it. At
torney General Daugherty, in urging
the injunction yesterday, said:
But it may be understood that so
long and to the extent that l can
speak for the government of the Unit
ed States I will use the power of the
government within my control to pre-
vent the labor unions of the country
from destroying the open shop
Chief Explains Stand
When the United Press called Rob
ertson's attention to the fact today
that his message came as an open
defy to Daugherty, the big Four
chief exclaimed:
you have the message. 1t was writ
ten Aug. %, but 1 am fully aware oi
Daugherty's stand for the open shop
taken in federal court in Chicago. Ny
message stands as it is written.

challenge centers all opposition to or

BERLIN, Sept. 2.-The German gov

against the presence of French troops

Germany in May, 1921. protested the

not a force of occupation but a garri-
son placed at the disposal of the com.

HIATT CASE
Judge Bond and Prosecutor
Beckett Ask Commission
ers for Funds To Prosecute
Former Bank President.
BOARD HOLDS BACK

Prosecution of Edgar F. Hiatt, on
indictments returned by the grand jury
last spring, may be seriously hamper
ed through refusal of the county COM
missioners to allow q $500 appropria-
ton for assistant counsel, it was learn
ed Saturday.
Prosecutor Beckett, in a request
filed with the court several weeks ago,
asked a special appropriation for the
prosecution of several important fel-
ony cases, such money to be paid out
only upon order of the court"
Judge W. A. Bond, to whom the re-
quest was made, approved and for
warded the requisition, setting the
amount at $500, when it went TO the
county commissioners. The reQuisi
ton was presented with others when
the county commissioners met to &c
over the additional appropriations for
the balance of the year, 1922.
Take No Action.
No action was taken by the county
commissioners. The additional appro
priations for the year go before the
county council next Tuesday for ap
proval. Unless action is taken then
the prosecuting dLLOIuSy Will D6 5SI
ously hampered in his action agains
Hiatt, both in the investigation anC
the trial of the case, it is said.
County officials who are opposed tc
the appropriation are said to have
taken the stand that the $1,000 is {
mere drop in the bucket in the tria
of the case.
Employs Good Counsel
'It is we'll known that Hiatt has EN-
ployed some of the best legal talen'
in the state, that he has not confined
himself to one firm alone, but is pre-
pared to fight the case of the state
every inch of the way" said a mem
Der of the Wayne County Bar asso
citation Saturday.
Now, if the state is to conduct thu
prosecution of this case properly, i
must have enough legal talnt to bal
ance the defense. 1t is merely a ques
tion of having the state as well repre-
sented as the defendant In man,
cases it is the other way round Tht
defendant, too often, is a poor nal
who can not employ legal talent l
we are to be consistent in our admin
istration of the law, the county shouIt
be prepared to prosecute wealthy OF
tenders just as much as poor ones"
