when you have halitosis (unpleas-

thing about it. And even your
closest friends won't tell you.
Sometimes, of course, halitosis
comes from some deep-seated or

fessional advice. But usually
and fortunately halitosis is only
local condition that yields to
the regular use of Listerine as

Then apply Listerine and note
how quickly the onion odor dis

NEW YORK April although
control of the s175,000,o00 Dodge au-
tomobile business had passed to
bankers, who will shortly open it to
public investment, members of the
Dodge family will still retain sub
stantial interest in the property, 1t
was learned yesterday.
Having received almost $4,000. 900
in cash for their holdings, the heirs
of John and Horace Dodge indicated
that they would reinvest a large
share of it in the new company, now
In process of formation by Dillon,

Meanwhile investment interest in the
huge transaction and the prospective
ref1nancing of the company was re-
fiected in the large number Of in
quiries received from banking houses
in Europe and various parts of the
United States.
Members of the banking firm were
busy today on plans for recapitaliz-
irg the concern and making a public
offering of securities. Banking circles
heard that the new company would
be capitalized at approximately 10
times it's net earning capacity, which
would be around S170,000,000. Most
of this will be represented in stock
and bond issues, which probably will
be offered within a week, and for

PROMISE HOT FIGHT
ON SHIP BOARD SALE
Pacific Mail Company Case
Expected to Go Before u. S.
Supreme Court.

Prospects of legal battle that may
be carried to the Supreme Court of
the United States and subject the en-
tire Government ship sales policy
under the merchant marine act to
court review and construction for the
first time have been raised in the
injunction proceedings brought by the
Pacific Mail Steamship Co. against a
ship sales decision OF the Shipping
Board
The heated controversy which has
arisen over the boards decision to
sell its five ships in the California
Orient Line. now operated by the
Pacific Mail to the Dollar interests
rested today in the hands of Justice
Hitz of the District of Columbia
Supreme Court. who issued an in
junction yesterday temporarily block
ing the sale. Hearings on making
permanent the temporary injunction
against the board have been set for
April 49,.
Term Board "Arbitrary.-
Whatever the outcome of that hear
ing, however, the case is expected
eventually to bring before the United
States Supreme Court the whole policy
and purpose involved in the ship sales
clauses of the merchant marine act,
designed to build up a stabilized
American merchant marine under
private operation by transfer of the
Government fleet.
Bringing suit both as party di-
rectly concerned and as taxpayer,
the Pacific Mail declared in it's pc
tition that the sale not only would
violate the merchant marine act but
that the Shipping Boards action in
regard to it's bid for the five vessels
had been an arbitrary refusal" to
consider it after the company had
offered to modify the bid as to pro-
visions held illegal by board counsel.

In face of the company's represen-
tation that sale of the ships 1T now
operates would result in i'irreparable
loss, injury and damage" to it, Chair
man O'Connor of the board declared
that il the injunction is made perma
nent he personally would favor can

tract Former Senator George +.
Chamberlain of Oregon interpreted
the chairman's statement as a willing
ness to drive the Pacific Mail out of
business in any case, but would not
