said Mrs. B. B. White Of Terre

of the education committee. Bills
have been proposed amending the
existing school attendance and child
labor law. If these bills become laws
then the educational standard Of
the State will drop to a lower level.
THE league is also opposed to a
bill which provides that the town

FORD, Coolidge
MAN, INDIRECTLY
WILL HELP REED
Missourian, as Auto Manu-
facturer's Counsel in Suit,
to Get Much Publicity.
By Rodney butcher

BIZ NEA Ser1tce
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-Henry
Ford is known as. strong Coolidge
man. He has said frequently that
he thinks Coolidge is a good presi-
dent, and it has been assumed that
he would like to see him reelected
IN 1928.
Yet, by a strange trick Of fate,
Henry Ford is going to be very in
strumental in putting the name OF
Senator James A. Reed Of Missouri
very prominently before the country.
Reed is nursing a husky presidential
boom of his own and, apparently. has
a good chance of capturing the DEM
ocratic nomination; unwittingly, per-
haps, Ford is about to boost his
cause tremendously.
Ford has been sued for a million
dollars libel by Aaron Sapiro, and
has retained Reed to defend him
when the suit comes to trial. And
anyone who thinks that the nation
wide publicity Reed will receive dur
ing this trial won't help his presi-
dental candidacy can think again.
Reed will be. the central figure
in the trial. He is bound to cut
such a courtroom figure as to over
shadow even his billioniare client.
For days he will be on the first pages
of every newspaper in the country.
Sensational Issues
The issues themselves are sen.
sational, for Ford is accused OF

Old Folks Need
a Mild Laxative
Not a "Physiic'

Most men and women past fifty
must give to the bowels some occa-
sional help, else they suffer from con-
stipation. One might as well refuse
to aid weak eyes with glasses as to
neglect a gentle aid to weak bowels.
Is your present laxative, in what
ever form, promoting natural bowel
regularity must you purge and

sick headache, dizziness, biliousness.

to establish natural, regular bowel
movement even for those chemically
constipated. 1t never gripes, sickens
or upsets the system. Besides, it is

gress and the opening OF the
SEVENTEEN. There is nothing more
pleasing to a budding presidential
candidate than this privilege.
And Reed is such brilliant
criminal lawyer that the trial will
be a worthy spectacle as well as
an excellent opportunity for him to
display his gifts to the country.
The country undoubtedly will
hear even further from Reed before
next December. 1t will be recalled
that he was charging about the
country at the head Of his cam
paign funds Investigating committee,
digging up dirt by the shovelful in
the limetght's full glare, during the
interim between the sessions of the
Sixty-Ninth Congress. He has stood
head and shoulders above the other
Democratic Senators during the
short session. His activities during
the next session will be of enormous
political interest, for the national
conventions will then loom in the
nearly immediate future.
Coolidge Has Edge
OF course the President of the
United States has an overwhelming
edge on ali rivals insofar as public
ity is concerned. He is the one man
whose every word and every move
ment is news. Consider the columns
of news and feature stories that flood
the Nation whenever Coolidge takes
his summer vacation. Consider the
multitudinous times his picture is to
be seen in your newspaper.
No more need to be said, but an
interesting example was recently
furnished when Speaker Nicholas
Longworth made a hot "hig Navy"
speech and the President smoth-
cred him next day with his naval
disarmament message. Longworth
hasn't been heard OF since, but the
President will be getting publicity
out Of the naval armament issue
Indefinitely and in a vastly larger
and more effective way.

butt Reed is in better position to
impress himself upon the popular
imagination.
John w. Davis carried no such
appeal to the average citizen as
goes with the Coolidge, Reed, Nc
Adoo or Smith publicity. That is
one reason why many Democrats
are extremely anxious to avoid pick
ing another candidate like Davis.

the sea, are gradually giving way to
ocean liners operating on specific
routes or regular schedules.
Before the war, the Commerce De-
partment announces there were for
ty-two tramps to every fifty-eight
lines operated by corporations, and
the competition of these unregulated
vessels greatly affected the ocean
freight rates of the world. Today
there are only twenty-seven tramp
steamers to every seventy-three
liners, and the old-time ship, FREQ to
come and go as cargo offered, will
soon completely disappear from the
seas.
