Public Works Program for Unemployed

the result of agitation by an organiZa-

by George Foster Peabody of New
York, with a view to the formation of
comprehensive program of public
works to guard against future cyclical
periods of business depression and un-
employment.
The organization formed to agitate
this legislation is known as the Ma
tiOnal Unemployment league, and its
proposed legislation was introduced be-
fore adjournment by Senator Freling
huysen (Rep., N. J.) and Representa-
tive Zihlman Rep., Md, being bill
for creation Of a commission to lay the
foundation for policy of expansion of
public works in time of depression.
Pending this legislation, which can
not be enacted until the next congress,
Representative Martin B. Madden
(Rep., Ill), chairman Of the appropria-
ttons committee, is already engaged in
working out a scheme for an extensive
program of public works already au-
thorized, with view to helping the
employment situation.
The bill calls for an investigation
Of the needs of the nation for public
works to be carried on by federal
state, and municipal agencies in periods

AGE NO BARRIER TO
CALLMEN over 45
Corporation Counsel Says They
Are Eligible TO Regular Force

Corporation Counsel John II. Kirk
ham has advised the board of fire
commissioners that present ordinances
fixing the age for admission to the
permanent fire fighting force will not
stand in the way of admitting call
men who have passed the age limit
who were in the call force prior to
1912. The opinion was read last night
by Clerk John r. r. Keevers.
There has been some question on
the part of the commissioners as to
whether a man now in the call force
who wishes to be promoted to the
permanent force under the two pla-
toon plan. but who is beyond As
years of age, is eligible.
Following is Judge Kirkham's opin-
ion:-
Answering your inquiry will
state that section 12S. chapter 3, of
the ordinances, 1920 edition Tin which
there has been no change since) was
adopted as section 127A by the COM
mon council, May Is, 1912, being
item 81. volume of the proceedings
of the common council.
Amy member of the fire depart
ment at that time G912) Is not af-
tected by the rule, and therefore is
not prevented by this ordinance from
promotion to the permanent force af-
ter he has passed the age of forty
five years"

Use kolynos Daily, Without Let Up
These Germs Never Cease Their Attack

KOLYNOS-the daily habit of using
Kolynos Dental Cream-will very materi-
ally assist in keeping you safe. Repeated
laboratory experiments in America and
Europe, conducted by able scientists, have
shown that solution of Kolynos Dental
Cream-such a solution as you produce in
brushing your teeth with this hygienic dem
tifrice-will destroy and render harmless
large proportion of the pneun,o- cocci, or
pneumonia bacilli, which lodge in your
mouth and throat.
Kolynos was given this healthful germici-
dial property primarily for the purpose of de-
stroying germs and preventing tooth de-
cay. Yet years of experience, among mil
lions of users in II countries, have clearly
indicated that the habitual KoIynos user is
less susceptible to the dreaded diseases of
the air passages-inhuenza, pneumonia and
bronchitis, than is the non-user.
