HiANILA DIVIDED OVER WOOD
Weeks Message Of Support GratIfies
Americans In Philippines.

Manila.-The message from Secre.
tury Of War Weeks re.plodging the
support Of the American administru.
tion to Governor General Leonard
Woods regime in the Philippine Is.
lands has been received with much
qualification by Americans and with
mixed feelings by Filipinos.
Some Filipino leaders take the view
that the message is a political move
which Washington was obliged to
make for party reasons, regardless OF
whether it believed Wood was right.
The Philippine legislature, after one
of the stormiest sessions in its his
tory, adopted Sergio Osmena's resolu
tion, approving the action OF the in.
dependence commission of last July in
demanding the recall of Governor Gen

u. S, RHINE ARMY
COSTS STILL ISSUE

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, May 16.-The deadlock be-
tween the allies and the United States
on final agreement for payment OF
the American Army costs in the Rhine
land remained unbroken after another
session yesterday afternoon, when the
text Of the proposed accord was again
examined. It was found that the dls-
puted point. whether the allies VIII pe
permitted to abrogate the agreement IN
case the United States pursues directly
the collection of war damages from
Germany. must again be referred 10
the allied governments.
Eliot Wadsworth. representing the
American Treasury Department. is un-
derstood to have remained firm in de-
nanding liberty of action for the
United States on the question OF war
damages. while the allied delegates
were equally unmoved in unfolding
their theory that. If the United States
proceeds to collect war damages from
Germany, she can at the same time
collect her own occupational expenses.
The allies contend that the separa-
ton of reparations or war damages
from the expenses of the armies OF
occupation is impracticable. The Euro
pean delegates last night expressed
hope that an agreement will finally be
reached.

HOW CEMENT SACKS ARE FILLED
AFTER BEING TIED

When you next pass a contractors
crew and see them handling sacks of
cement, you will be looking at con-
tanners that were tied before they
were filled-and filed bottom side up.
This may seem curious. 1t is just
another of the methods adopted by the
cement industry to keep up with the
growing demands upon it.
Sacks have long been favored for
cement. They are easy to handle
more so for most purposes than the
barrels formerly used. And each one
contains a cubic foot of cement-a
convenient measure for prOpOrtioning
concrete mixtures.
For some years, the sacks have
been filled by machines. Each sack has
a hole in one of it's lower corners that
is covered by a valve-simply flap
of cloth. After the sack has been fas-
tened at the top with a wire tie, it is
put on the machine bottom side up
and the cement, aided by an elaborate
mechanism, flows in through a one
inch tube.
When the sack contains just 81
pounds the flow is automatically cut
off and the sack drops to a moving
belt which carries it out to the freight
car. By this method, crew of four
men can fill and load 5000 sacks in a
day-2,00O sacks per man as against
400 per man twenty years ago
About 80 per cent of the 22,00O,OOO
tons of cement shipped in this coun-

ISN'T 1T TRUEg

One of the greatest factors to sue
cessful business building is the prac-
tice of rigid economy-but economy
when considered in the curtailing OF
your advertising is nothing more than
leap in the dark" You invite dis
aster while your competitors business
increases in the light of his greater
activity in advertising.
Most of us can look back a few
years and recall some product that ev-
cry body knew but that is not now
known. If we trace the cause of its
disappearance we invariably find it to
be the false economy of curtailing on
the wronk end of the business-adver-
tising-which is like shutting off the
electric current in the power house
the car will coast for a while but fin
ally stop.
Probably the best known of any of
our present-day tonic-foods is ScOtt's
Emulsion and the makers are frank to
admit that it is by CONSTANT and per-
sistent advertising that they have been
able to maintain the place of Scott's
Emulsion in the high esteem of mil
lions of people who have come to
know it's wonderful helpfulness as an
up-building food-medicine for old and
young during the past fifty years. The
makers of Scott's Emulsion maintain

try last year was delivered in cloth
approximately 420 million OF
them. Over 200,000,000 sacks are now
in sack storage houses at the mills or
in customers hands.
Because of sacks that do not come
back, or that fail at the packing ma
chine, 100000 new ones must be
bought annually, requiring the equiv
alent of strip of cotton cloth 80
inches wide and $4,000 miles long.
This strip of cloth would more than
girdle the earth at the equator.
Awaiting packing for shipment, ce-
ment commonly is stored in bulk
usually in huge concrete bins, each
holding enough cement to fill tens Of
thousands of sacks. Screw and belt
conveyOrs move the cement from the
bins to the packing machines.
There is still the railroad situation
to be reckoned with before cement can
reach the user. In times of recurring
car shortages, the companies ship ce-
ment in refrigerator cars, stock cars,
gondolas anything that they can
make leak and weatherproOf even by
expensive repairs and coverings.
Trucking over concrete roads has
been meeting the emergency in some
instances.
All this is part of the business OF
getting cement to users when and
where they want it.
