(The Public Ledger)

time PuDllc LeQger)
For several years rumors and re-
ports bearing upon certain alleged
scandals affecting men once oc-
cupying high places in the Govern
ment have been In circulation. The
indictment of Harry M. Daugherty,
former Attorney General; Thomas
w. Miller, Alien Property Custodian,
and John T. King, exmember from
Connecticut of the Republican Ma
tional Committee. will focus national
attention on these rumors and re-
ports. Attorney General Stone be-
gan an investigation which has been
pressed by his successor. Attorney
General Sargent. That this inquiry
might besmirch the regulations of
former officials has not been allowed
to influence official action. Men who
may be guilty are not going to be
permitted to hide behind the reputa-
ton of other men. The Department
of Justice has done no more than
its duty If 1t has the evidence to
back up the indictments 1t has OBJ
tanned. Nevertheless, 1t is entitled
to more than a passing appreciation
of its work, for it has proceeded
against known pressure and against
difficulties best known only to itself.

When America was young, the wise
pioneer women learned to gather, in
woods and fields, the remedies the
Indians used. From the rafters of
colonial houses hung great punches of
dried roots and herbs. From these. in
times of sickness, the busy mother
brewed remedies for her family.
From roots and herbs. Lydia e.
Pinkham, a descendant of these
sturdy pioneers, made her Vegetable
Compound. For more than half a
century this dependable medicine has
been taken by women with very sat
isfactory results.
If it has helped other women, why
shouldn't it help you?
