General Sargent and his assistants
in the annual report of the Depart.

Among other things, Mrs. Mabel

bition enforcement, asked for heav-
Ter penalties for prohibition law vio-
lators, general overhauling of the

The Attorney General himself rec

neys, additional federal judges, and
several other legislative changes
to make legal actions easier. He
made no direct reference to prohi-
bition, but incorporated in his report
without comment the recent find
ings of the conference of senior
circuit judges condemning excessive
use of conspiracy charges in liti-
cation of the class embracing pro-
hibition offenses.

ment for the coming fiscal year were
estimated by President Coolidge at
1886. .207, 81, an increase of
S160, ,0S3,326 over the outlay for
the current year.
The bulk Of the increase goes to
the postal service, which Is operat-
lng under a now schedule Of wages
and rates, and to the Veterans
Bureau, to meet increasing require
ments of the soldier bonus. The
Post Office Department alone is al
ing the present year. The Veterans
Bureau gets an INCREASE of $53.-

Allotments for other agencies Of
the Government show number OF
lesser increases, balanced by abart
an equal number of decreases
Maintenance of the Army and
Navy at their present enlisted
strength is contemplated under the
estimates. but the aviation services
are allotted somow what larger funds
for purchases OF equipment. The
Shipping Boat1'' expenditures show
sharply the shrinkage of that
agency through sale of lines, while

counts for additional money require

about a certain bicarbonate of

seventy years the products of
E. R. Squibb & Sc is have set a
standard for purity that has never
been exceeded.
1t is the surprising purity of
