una vez aquf mejorara rapidamente,
estando muy pronto en- seondieiones de

Ell Gobernador Reilly ha sido 10 que
pudieramos lamar sun hueso de pc
lea" en- Puerto Rico, casi desde su lie
gada ALI, pocas semanas despues del
advenimiento de la Administration del
Presidente Harding. Todos sus ac-
tos, uno tras otro, provocaron la con-
denacion de varias agrupaciones por-
torriquenas, v Sc convirtieron en- acu-
saci6n, tras acusacion contra el mis-
mo, habiendo sido, algunas de estas
acusaciones, ventiladas en- ,nuestra
Camara de Representatives federal, Y
todas las cuales han llegado, de ITEM
po en- tempo, hasta las propias ofici-
mas del Presidente v del Secretario
de la Guerra.
Antes de su nombramiento, ell Co
bernador Reilly era un politico local en-
Kansas City. Sin embargo, cuando
Mr.. Harding resulto nominado candi-
dato la Presidencia, en- 1920, por ell
dItluO hcpuullCdIiC, Rclly new Ia

tensa labor por Harding, antes de la
convention misnra de Chicago. Reilly,
en- resumidas cuentas, fue "el primer
honlbre. pro- Harding al Oeste del rio
Misisipi", v fue por ,esta razon que
sus solicitudes de remuneration fue-
ron contestadas< Con ell nombraniento
de Gobernador de Puerto Rico.
Mr. Reilly Sc ha creido siempre 81

sado de antiamericanos los portorri-
queilos a. tenian algunos sentimientos

"1t improved the condition of
every one who was constipated"
Recent experiments explain action of Feischmanns Yeast
in relieving this complaint

Your own physician will heartily
endorse this principle of treating
constipation by gently encouraging
the intestinal muscles to act for
themselves.
Be sure you get Fleischmann's
Yeast-yeast in its natural fresh
form. Recent experiments have
shown that yeast corrects consti-
patton only when its cells are alive
and active, and that it loses its
laxative effect when these cells are
killed" and dried.
Eat at least or cakes day
plain or dissolved in water, milk, or
fruit unexpectedly half an hour
before a meal, or the last thing at
night.
Get several cakes at a time-they
will keep in cool, dry place for
several days. Be sure you get
Fleischmann's Yeast. All grocers
have it. Send for free book

In three great scientific laboratories
and hospitals, recent experiments
were made on over 100 persons -
to test the effects of Fleischmann's
Yeast on constipation.
1t was found that the yeast mixes
with the highly-nutritious, concen-
trated foods which form most of our
modern diet, softenin9 them and
increasing their bulk. This
greater bulk gently encourages the
intestinal muscles to act, and at the
same time Strengthens them by Of
fering just the resistance they need.
That is why, according to the
recently issued report of these
tests, Fleischmann's Yeast i'm
proved the condition of every
one who had any degree of
constipation" 1t simply assists
Nature to restore normal, healthy
conditions. Hundreds of thousands
of men and women are eating
Fleischmann's Yeast today. Ply
sicians and hospitals are prescrib-
ing it in place of the dangerous

lie improvements and must get money to
carry on. Issuance of tax-exempt bonds for
road building and city improvements furnish
prolific source whence to obtain funds.
Men of great wealth find in the purchase
of these bonds an easy way of escaping
share of taxation, from which investors in
industry cannot escape, and it is argued that
every dollar which goes into the buying of
tax-exempt bonds is not only withdrawn
from the general diversified industries of the
country but also represents loss to the fed
eral income for the support of the govern
ment. ..
\ y *
Another angle to the tax-exempt bond
proposition was pointed out by Senator
Fletcher in debate upon the subject in the
Senate, and that is, the profit which will ac-
crue to the holders of tax-free bonds already
issued and outstanding. He calculated the
prospective gift to such holders if the change
is made at something like billion dollars.
1T is estimated" said Senator Fletcher,
that the securities outstanding today that
arc now tax exempt run from ten to eighteen
billion dollars. The minute you impose taxes
on al future issues, of course, the value of
these tax-frec securities will at once increase,
and l dare say those gentlemen holding them
will profit to the amount of nearly $780,

tor Borah will re-introduce his resolution,
which was withdrawn a few weeks ago, cali
ing for international economic confer
ence. If he does, it will probably be offered
as an amendment to the Army appropriation
bill, and prolonged debate is likely.
President Harding is understood to be un-
changed in the opinion he previously ex-
pressed that it is unwise to go into such an
undertaking at this time. Senator Borah, if
he persists, will again find himself at odds
with some of his colleagues with whom he
stood shoulder to shoulder in the great fight
against the Versailles treaty His disposi-
tion as announced by him Saturday. was to
bring up the resolution again.

Stamp Sales Soar
To Billion Ouer
Like Period in ~

The biggest demand for stamps
and other postal stamped paper in
the history Of the government is
in full swing and is taken by the
Post once Department as an indi-
cation Of healthier business condi-
tions.
A billion more stamps were is
sued In the last six months than In
that period a year ago, and values
showed a s3o,o0o.0o0 increase.
leading postal officials to believe
there will be no deficit from pos
tai operations when the fiscal year
closes June 80. A year ago the
deficit amounted to $60,S15.4o0.
Orders for postal cards in car
load lots have been received, the
demand being larger than ever be-
fore for q similar period. One
firm bought 100000 precanceled
stamps. Demand for stamps is so
heavy It has been impossible to
keep up with 1t, and as a result
the reserve supply has fallen 200,-
100000 below the figure set as a
safe margin.
In addition to the Increased de-
mand for stamps, there has been a
rapid increase in the use Of rhe
postage metering device, which re-
quires no stamps.
