Old folks are amazed; they
"fail in love" with this wonderful
medicine. Of course, they are good
for young and middle-aged, too;
but when the dear, old folks need
help in this sort of trouble, they
need quick, mild, generous help
such as Balmwort alone affords.
DR.. Lewis Baker says: "Too
many elderly folks are given to
using medicine; salts, oils, etc.,
which flush the kidneys by over
stimulation, frequently doing more
harm than good"
So many folks have kidneys and
bladders that are easily affected by
colds, fatigue, indigestion, worry,
exposure to dampness, or even to
overwork-hard labor; and right
away they wake up in the morning
with painful stiffness of muscles,
aching back, swollen feet and

RADIO IS URGED
FOR POLICE
USE
Inspector Grant Declares De-
partment Must Keep One
Step Ahead Of Criminal.

Radio travels faster than q
criminal
In these few words Inspector Cliff
ford l.. Grant, head Of the Washing
ton detective office, epitomizes the
urgent need of radio receiving and
hroadcasting apparatus for his de-
partment. Inspector Grant has for
many months advocated that such a
step be taken, but nothing encoura g.
ing has been forthcoming, it Is UNI
dersfood.
Lack OF finances provided in the
police budget is the chief reason for
delaying installation of radio, Major
Daniel Sullivan, superintendent Of
police, pointed out. Personally, he
said, he favored it, since modern
utilities mean greater efficiency.
After an intensive study of the
merits and dement's of the radio de-
tective" in California, where radio
was for the first time used In a po-
lice department, Inspector Grant as
serted today that it was one Of the
greatest advances in police work yet
devised. Within a few minutes after
q crime is committed, he said, every
policeman may learn of 1t.
Whatever is quick, the police
need" the inspector said. Before
the days of the automobile and the
telephone we were contented, and
were able to cope with criminals by
awaiting ourselves Of the fastest
methods known at that time. Since
radio communication surpasses all
these in speed, then, naturally, we
should have the radio. It's the po.
liceman's business to keep just one
step ahead of the fugitive.
Searching the records, find that
radio has aided in the discovery Of
lost boys and girls, stolen machines
and numerous persons whom it was
not possible to locate otherwise.

ITALY BUILDING
GREAT AIR
FLEET
4 500 Planes to Be Completed
by June Next, Planned
by MussoIini.
Copyright. 1923. by International
News Service.)

ROME, Dec. 8.-With the com.
pletion Of $500 airplanes and sea-
planes by next June, Italy, under
the energetic guidance Of Premier
Mussolini, hopes to become the
second air power in Europe.
That is the program Of the
Italian Fascist government today
II 1t is carried to q successful con.
clusion only France will be more
powerful in the air than Italy six
months hence.
Italy is strengthening her navy in
proportion. The naval program
calls for two 10,O0O-ton light cruis-
ers, twenty deStroyers, twenty SUB
marines, and one seaplane carrier.
Backed by NIussOlim.
The project of setting up an air
force strong enough to compete
with any other in Europe was one
OF the first tasks to which the
Fascist government applied itself
after coming into power.
Reorganization of the italian air
force was Premier Mussolini's own
ideas. He and Signor Vinzi were
appointed high commissioner and
vice commissioner for aviation, re-
spectively. Both had had practical
experience as air pilots in the great
war.
When reorganization was under.
taken Italy had only about 100 ma.
chimes in effective condition out of
the 5000 she possessed at the end
or the war. There remained only
about a dozen experienced pilots in
the service .,s

expenditure for 1923 at about $780,.

There has been much exaggerA-

strength OF the new Italian air

count or the impressive sight Of
800 military planes lowering over
Rome when the Fascist celebrated
