out the provisions Of the national pro-
hibition act"
The new prohibition measures will
be referred to the Senate judiciary
subcommittee, which has held hear
ings on number Of modification pro-
posals sponsored by wet senator's as
well as the Goff bill designed to put
additional teeth into the volstead act.
Chairman Harreld said the sub-com-
mittes would meet in about 10 days to
consider all of the measures. There
is little probability that any Of the
wet bills will be reported. but some
senators said today that there was
equally as little probability that any
Of the administration measures could
be enacted at this session.
Besides the bills to strengthen the
volstead act there is pending another
bill to create prohibition bureau in
the treasury under commissioner.
This is expected to be passed tomor-
row by the House.

not satisfied with that but wish also

Chronic coughs and persistent
colds lead to serious trouble. You
can stop them now with Creomul-
sion, an emulsified creosote that is
pleasant to take.
Creomulsion is new medical dis
covery with two-fold action: it
soothes and heals the inflamed
membranes and inhibits germ
growth.
OF all known drugs, creosote is
recognized by high medical authors
ties as one Of the greatest healing
agencies for persistent coughs and
colds and other forms of throat
troubles. Creomulsion contains, in
addition to creosote, other healing
elements which soothe and heal the
infected membranes and stop the
irritation and inflammation, while
the creosote goes on to the stomach,
is absorbed into the blood, attacks
the seat OF the trouble and checks
the growth Of the germs.
Creomulsion is guaranteed salts
factory in the treatment of per-
sistent coughs and colds, bronchial
asthma, bronchitis and other forms
of respiratory diseases, and is ex-
cellent for building up the system
after colds or flu. Money refunded
if any cough or cold is not relieved
after taking according to directions.
