PRESIDENT To ENTER
NAVAL BILL FIGHT

WASHINGTON, April 13.-Presi-
dent Harding is shortly to come out
against reducing the navy to $1,000
men, according to an apparently re-
liable report circulated in the house
today.
The president, it was said, has vir-
tually decided to express his views
on the proposed navy slash in
letter to house Republicans fighting
for a navy enlisted personnel OF S6,-
900. He will act, if at all, today or
tomorrow, as a vote on the person
mel section of the navy bill proba-
bly will be reached late Friday after
noon.
Presidents Harding was requested
to write letter by the same group
Of house Republicans who obtained
the recent statement from Secretary
Hughes. They said today that Mr..
Harding would shy clear OF approx
ing a definite figure for the navy
man-power, but that his letter, IN ell
feet, would be warning to congress
to be very careful to see that II
provided a navy large enough TO
properly maintain Americas posi-
ton under the $3.50 ratio of the
arms conference.
"Big navy advocates in the
house however, would read in the
letter the executives specific ap-
uroyal of a naval enlisted strength
of &c. 900 men, the figure set by the
navy department as the minimum
under which the United States can
operate a full fleet OF IL capltdl
ships. If that is not the case, they
contend, "why should the president
write any letter at all?"
This view would be opposed by
supporters of the $1,000 bill.
."The president has not Thoroughly
studied the situation, and all ne
could possibly say is that he wants
a navy large enough to uphold the
arms conference ratio" Representa-.
tive Kelley, Michigan, in charge OF
the navy bill on the floor, said TO-
day. st want that, too, and so does
every man backing the bill OF the
appropriations committee. we De-
lieve that $1,000 men are enough.
KELLEY and other little navy" men
in the house were up in arms To-
day over the activities of what tney
called "the navy department soclal
lobby" This lobby" they cnargea'
is at work trying to defeat the oI''
900 bill.
, The immediate object Of their
wrath was a meeting of the ONO oel.
egation last night at the home OF
Representative Nicholas LongWorth.
At this meeting the Ohioans met
Theodore Roosevelt, assistant sec
retary of the navy, and LongWortn's
brother-in-law, who told them what
he believed the 67,000-man navy
would do to the United States as
world sea power.

You know what calomel Is. It's
mercury; quicksilver. Calomel is
dangerous. 1t crashes into sour bile
like dynamite, cramping and sicken-

and should never be put into your
system.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con-

go to your druggist and get bottle
of Dodson's Liver Tone for a few
cents which is a harmless vegetable
substitute for dangerous calomel.
Take a spoonful and if it doesn't
start your liver and straighten you
UP better and quicker than nasty
calomel and without making you
sick, you just so back and get your

Don't take calomel! It makes you

], NJ, COX OUTLINES
CAMPAIGN ISSUES

LOUISVILLE, KY, April 13.-
James M. Cox, former Democratic
candidate for president, speaking
before the Woodrow Wilson club at
it's first annual dinner here last
night, outlined the issues which, in
his judgment, will be presented in
the congressional elections this year.
"It simply will be necessary" he
said, Ito articulate the grievance
against the present administration,
which has fastened itself upon every
community in America
He also touched upon the traiff,
the federal reserve system and the
League of Nations. The Wilson ad-
ministration, he said, demonstrated
that a high tariff was not necessary
to prosperity. Without the federal
reserve system, he asserted, the war
could not have been won, and the
claim of a plurality against the
League Of Nations" he declared, "is
mere DunCOmDe.
''Our Republican friends" he said
at the beginning of his address,
'seem 10 be very much worried as
to what the Democracy will present
as it's issue in the congressional cleo
tons this year. In my judgment,
at least, it will simply be necessary
to articulate the grievance against
the present administration, which
has fastened itself upon every COM
| munity in America. In short, the
issue will be the sins Of omission
and of commission on the part of
the administration.
when we have chronicled the
bad things that have been done and
the good things that might have
been done, the record will be ample
for a successful campaign. Into the
| sins of omission will, Of course, come
Americas failure to join in the work
Of international cooperation by be-
coming member of the League of
Nations. The man in the street
does not regard the League of Ma
tons now as q mere affair of ideal
ism. He recognizes that his own
economic condition is affected by
economic conditions elsewhere. He
also knows that prosperity must be
preceded by order and that existing
disorder is being abated in Europe by
conference and cooperation.
Speaking Of issues, an old cam
paign associate of the Republicans
will be missing this year. Since the
war between the states they have
commended that the Democratic par
ty was a party of opposition and
thoroughly lacking in the qualities
of constructive leadership.
THE record of eight years of
construction is so thoroughly out
lined in the memory of the people
that it will be a waste of time for
republican orators to challenge
democratic accomplishment. NOT
only did the Wilson administration
demonstrate that high tariff sys-
tenn was not necessary to our pros
perity. but that an unprecedented
prosperity came under the tariff
schedules which the Republicans for
nfty years had proclaimed to be
dangerous.
Not only was the country nros-
porous under Mr.. Wilson, but it was
a different kind of prosperity than
the country had known before"
