Washington Correspondent The Omaha Bee
Washington, Feb. 29.-Prompt ac-
ton by President Coolidge on the
wheat report of the United States
tariff commission was promised TO-
day at the regular newspaper con
ference with the president at the
White House.
The assertion was made positively
in response to questioning that II
was the understanding of the presi
dent that the report would reach the
White House probably tomorrow and
il would show an increased tariff was
necessary.
An equally positive statement was
issued to the effect that IL the ex
pected proof of the lower cost OF pro
duction in Canada were shown in the
report OF the tariff commission that
the president would issue the order
Immediately. In official circles in
Washington 1t was stated that beyond
doubt the order for a higher tariff
would be issued within the next As
hours at least.
First Farm Relief Measure.
Largely through the efforts OF Sen
ator Il. B. Howell. the White House
became busy today in ascertaining
from the tariff commission II any
delay was threatened in finishing the
report. 1t was stated at the COM
(haalfnn "a
the report was under way tonight
and everything indicated II would be
delivered to President Coolidge some
time tomorrow
This assurance by the tariff COM
mission TO the White House OF prompt
delivery OF the report tomorrow,
coupled with the official statement
from the White House that the re
port would call for immediate atten-
tion and action is basis for the con-
fldence in official circles tonight that
the first OF the many contemplated
steps for farm relief will be n higher
wheat tariff, ordered probably within
As hours.
Oil Scandal Interferes.
Senators representing agricultural
states were baked again today in
getting ths Norbeck farm relief bill
before the senate for consideration
because Of continual debate on the
Teapot Dome scandal, particularly the
resolution calling for an lnvestiga-
ton OF Attorney General Harry
Daugherty.
This has made the third eonseeu-
tive day that democratic members
have insisted on prolonging the de-
bate in face of protests from Senator
Ladd of North Dakota, and Norbeck
OF South Dakota, who have pleaded
for a temporary discontinuance OF
politics In the senate and action In
behalf OF stricken wheat farmers OF
the northwest. Yesterday Senator
Norbeck was promised consideration
of the bill today, but the promise was
not kept.

Sycamore Grove Park, Los Angeles.
Calf. All former residents Of Wy
oming are invited to attend.
Mrs. Florence Jackson, former
Rawlins resident, is secretary Of the
picnic committee and from reports
the picnic this year will be the
largest that has ever been held in
California. Each summer there is an
attempt made to get all of the form
er Wyoming residents together at a
picnic and as the years pass by the
crowds become larger, partly be-
there are more Wyoming resi-
dents in California but mostly be-
aus more of the residents who
have been there for several years get
homesick for Wyoming and their old
friends and this is one chance to see
many of the old W~yomingites in one
group.
The picnic committee has request
ed hal the persons who attend the
picnic bring their own basket din
ners and the committee will provide
hot coffee.
The Republican has many Cali

list of the persons who attend the
Wyoming picnic will be sent to this
paper by some picnic member.

sort of funny then flew up again,
clearing the running gears of the
wagon, and at the same time the
king bolt flew out of the bolster and
the reach pulled out. Quick as a
flash the team left with the front
wheels and tongue, and as quickly
both boys flew out Of the wagon,
the n hanging onto the foot rope
and the other clinging to the lines.
They hit the ground with such force
that both were dazed. The team
kept on going, but the bronx was
soon wound up amid the foot rope
and fell down. The other horse
pulled the wheels on top of him, and
then stood looking at the wreck.
When the boys collected themselves
they were SO glad that they only had

Lewie Kamp and Jim Stewart went
to the Bow las week one day, and
when they returned home they took
a nice big juicy watermelon, which
had been grown way down in Texas
or some other watermelon country.
And even that wouldn't have been
SO bad, but we were told about that
goody, goody melon, how delicious 1t
was when cut, so red and juicy, and
all that sort OF thing, and altho we
were dying for a slice, we live 21
miles from town, and cannot drive
either a car or a flying machine, and
there you are, SO you can see just
what kind of a pickle we were in.

They report a dandy trip, but say it
is terribly hot in Nebraska. and
they believe that Wyoming folks do
not have to get up so early or work
so late as they do in the farming
country and they are a little partial

Fever victims go to the big expense
of trips North, to the mountains and

the pollens begin to fly. For no
matter where you live or how long
YOU have had Hay Fever-no mat

have tried in vain-complete relief
is positively guaranteed with the re-
markable new internal prescription
Of a Cleveland specialist.
Thousands OF the severest cases
were treated with this new prescrip-
ton before it was released for gen.
eral use. In ninety five per cent of
all cases every single symptom-all
that terrible sneezing. itching eyes,
runny nose. headaches, fever, asthma
and general misery disappeared
within "a hours.
Entirely New Method
1t has been known for years that
Hay Fever is caused by plant pollens
floating in the air. Formerly 1t was
thought that these pollens merely ir-
ritated the sensitive eyes and lose
of certain persons. So various local
treatments salves. sprays. inhala-
tions. etc.-were tried, but with lit
tie benefit. OF course they did not
at all help the headache, fever. etc.
But now 1t has been found that
the pollens contain what is known
as protein matter. and that this pro-
tein matter is absorbed into the
blood through the thin membranes
of the eyes and nose, thus causing

The people in this community were
shocked last week when they re-
ceived news OF the death of Nels
Sargent, a pioneer of this country.
His death occurred at Hanna, he
having left his little ranch near
Ramsey Junction, and was due to old
age. Mr.. Sargent was for many
years in the Medicine Bow tie camp,
later moving to Carbon where he
worked at the blacksmith trade, be-
ing a first class workman in thai
line. Like many old Carbonites he
stayed with the old town until the
last spark of life had faded from 1t,
then he settled as near as possible,
and still ran a blacksmith shop.
When people found a particular job
in the line of blacksmith work to
be done, it was always taken to Nels
Sargent. He was a man of the
pioneer type, honest and upright,
and his word was not to be doubted.
We will miss him one and all, for
such men as he are fast fading away,
and it is only with deepest regret
Thai we realize the truth.
Mrs. Raymond Bennett returned
the last Of the week from a trip to

Mrs. Agnes Howard and daughter

they will make their future home at
the ranch again, after spending the
past two years in Medicine Bow.

Why New Prescription Dispels
Every Sign of Hay Fever
Naturally, no mere surface treat
ments like salves, sprays, inhala-
tions, cauterizing, ETC., can possibly
get at this internal poisoning. Serum
treatments have been tried, too, but
are only partially successful. But at
ter s years intensive study and ex-
pertinent in the clinical treatment of
thousands of cases., a new prescrip-
ton has recently been developed
which is entirely different from any
other hitherto known or used. 1t
is known as DR.. Platt's Rinex Pre-
simple capsule form. acts directly to
completely neutralize the protein
poisoning throughout the system.
The amazing prompt relief seems lit
tie short Of miraculous, but this is
easily understood when 1t Is realized
that Rinex Prescription goes direct
to the cause and removes 1t.
Results Positively Guaranteed
So Hay Feverites can rest easy
right at home this year, and need
not suffer the slightest inconven-
fence. The minute the attack be-
gins, all they need do is to take DR..
Platt's Rinex capsules. and they can
forget they ever had Hay Fever.
Rinex Prescription is not to be taken
beforehand, but only at the time OF
attack, when the poisoning Is begin
ming. 1t at once neutralizes this
poisoning.
Results are positively guaranteed.
II you are not completely free Of all
distress within "a hours your drug
gist is authorized to instantly return
your money. So have not the slight
est fear OF Hay Fever this summer
and fall. Simply be prepared with
DR.. Platt's Rinex. Ask these u

EXHIBIT
IS TAKING
SHAPE !
Finishing Touches Will Be
Given in Time for Opening
Tomorrow.

Convention Hall, home of varied
shows and exhibitions, was being
trimmed and altered today for
something new in it's history-a
Radio Show.
Workmen are busy on 24.hour
shifts to adjust the hall to the
needs Of the novel exhibition.
The steel Orders Of the audi.
forum have been hidden above a
floating canopy Of cinnamon brown
and white from which hang floral
pieces of evergreen and spring
flowers.
Show to Open at 8 O'clock.
Work on the construction and
decoration of the hundred booths
assigned to exhibitors is expected
to be completed tomorrow in time
for the official opening of the show
at o'clock in the afternoon.
In the center of the hall is being
constructed hospitality booth
built in a fashion of a Southern
arbor. Around the top Of the booth
are a half dozen loud speakers
which will bring the country's radio
program to the hall.
AT the south end of the auditorium
is the educational exposition of the
Radio Corporation of America, de-
picting the history of radio. AT
either side of this booth are the
exhibits of the Government depart
ments.
Midway Being Constructed.
On the street floor underneath
the auditorium is being constructed
a midway, featuring freak radio
exhibit and many other novelties.
The midway will be conducted by
John Mullane.
Final plans for the show were
completed last night at a meeting
Of the executive committee Of the
Radio Merchants Association of
Washington.

ones, my Dream Sweetheart" for
the benefit of the Middle West.
At half past eleven, we ran into
series of good-nights, WMAK,
Cleveland, WCAP, WEAF, and
WBAP, at Fort Worth. The latter
station tested out a new trick
watch that strikes the hours, quar-
ters and minutes, before signing
off. We think it is a good watch.
About the worst noise we heard
during the course of the evening
was a cross cut saw solo from

Another new station for us crent
in on the 227 wave line when
WWAE, at Joliet, ILL.,, brought US
the dance music from Alamo Dance
Hall. If the station was using its
allotted 500 watts. WHAZ, at Troy
was using million.
We hung around for about fit
teen minutes at the NighthawL
F'rolic at WDAF, Kansas City
and then called it a. night. After
all, with all of our wanderings VIC
didn't find any performance that
pleased us more than the Cordes
Marks Orchestra through our own
WCAP and WEAF.

BALLOT
Station WJAZ Reports 34,1s5
Votes for Booze; 12,942
Against 1t.

A radio poll Of the wet and dry
sentiment of listeners.in which was
conducted last week at Station
WJAZ, Chicago, resulted in a vote
of 34,185 wet and 12,482 dry, it was
announced today by the officials of
the station.
The cost Of the kilograms by
means of which the vote was cast
amounted to approximately $35 900.
Every State was represented in the
vote.
Chicago led with 14,44O wet votes
and 3,772 dry votes. Illinois voted
6,770 wet and 1929 dry.
Wisconsin polled the second
largest State vote, with 1870 wet
and 1,096 dry votes. Indiana was
third, with 1880 wet votes and 921
drys. The District of Columbia
voted 20 wet and dry. No State
showed poll favoring prohibition.
Statement by the Director.
+. F. Mcdonald, jr., director Of
the WJAZ broadcasting station IN a
statement issued in connection with
the count on the vote, declared he
believed that no truer reflection of
public opinion on the subject could
be obtained"
was taken, he stated.
For more than a week before
the opening of the poll we an
nounced the conditions and rules
from Station WJAZ, but in order to
prevent any possibility of padding.
we told our audience that a "code
word" would be given at the be-
ginning Of the contest, and that
only votes containing that word
would be counted. This procedure
was followed.
Speakers Get Hearing.
"The writer then got in touch
with leaders Of the wet" and dry"
factions in Chicago and invited
| them to send two speakers each to
deliver ten minute talks. These
speakers were: For the "wets" Clar-
| ence S. barrow. noted criminal at
torney, author and lecturer and G..
A. Windle, editor Of the "Iconoclast"
and a writer and lecturer Of note;
for the "drys" 0. G. Christgau, edi--
| tor Of 1.-The American Issue" organ
| Of the prohibition forces and John
| w. Langley, lecturer, organizer and
| superintendent Of the Chicago Anti
| Saloon League.
ION Saturday evening the four
| speakers were allowed to broadcast
| their views shortly after the an
| nouncement of the code word. Mr..
| Christgau and Mr.. barrow were
I the first speakers and an hour
later we turned the microphone over
| to Mr.. Windle and Mr.. Langley.
! On Sunday afternoon Mr.. barrow
| and Mr.. Langley debated and on
| Sunday evening Mr. Christgau and
Mr.. Windle.
Before the first Of the speakers
had finished the kilograms began
pouring in. A corps of twelve
sorters and counters took charge of
them and after dividing them into
wet" and dry" groups, numbered
them with automatic numbering
| machines.

RADIO OPERATOR Is
COMMENDED BY NAVY

Henry J. Reinhardt, radioman.
third class, of Bridgeport, Conn,
has been commended by the Navy
Department for a daring trip in an
open boat during storm, from the
radio station at Kodiak, Alaska, tn
the village across two miles Of
open water, to obtain assistance
for the steamship Star, in distress
at Malina Point.
Reiphardt made his trip on the
night of December 9 last, when
the steamer was being pounded to
pieces and the loss of all those
aboard seemed imminent.
