That is the way QUEEN
Hair Dressing treats the
hair - by absorption.
QUEEN penetrates the hair
and scalp and makes it just
as you have always dreamed
it should be. And QUEEN
Medicated Soap, used as
shampoo, puts the hair and
scalp in exactly the right
condition to absorb the
Queen Hair Dressing.
Like this girl, thousands
of women have suffered for.
their unpopularity through
short, ugly hair. But we
told them the truth about
their hair. They appreciated
our scientific advice and their
first treatment of QUEEN
showed a big improvement,
which gave them happiness
and popularity. Queen treats
both grads of hair.
We have torn aside the
veil of mystery. Through
years of scientific research
we discovered how you can
have beautiful hair. Now, for

SENATE REAFF|RMS
SLUSH COMMIT TEE
Resolution by Reed of Mis-
souri, Adopted by
57-22 Vote.

The powers Of the special Senate
committee on campaign expenditures,
which inquired into the, primaries In
Illinois and Pennsylvania last year.
were reaffirmed by the Senate this
afternoon when 1t adopted by vote
of 81 to % the resolution of Senator
Reed, Democrat, Of Missouri.
This is the committee to which the
Senate last week referred the cases
Of Senators-elect Smith Of Illinois, and
Ware Of Pennsylvania, after 1t had
gone on record against administering
the oath to Smith and Ware, pending
committee report. The special com.
mittee decided Saturday to wait for
the approval given its authority today
before proceeding with the Smith and
Ware cases; therefore, the vote in the
Senate this afternoon clears the way
for immediate committee consideration
Of the two contested senatorial seats.
Protest Is Made.
The vote this afternoon came after
short discussion in which Senator
David Reed. Republican, of Pennsyl-
vania made protest against what he
declared to be an incorrect historical
statement in the resolution of Senator
Reed Of Missouri The Pennsylvania
Senator referred to that part Of the
resolution which states that the pow
ers Of the committee have continued in
full force and effect since they were
conferred upon the committee by the
last Congress.
Reed of Pennsylvania argued that
regular standing committees OF the
Senate continue during a recess, but
that specific action was needed to
continue the life of this special com.
mittee after Congress adjourned. The
Pennsylvania Senator said he realized
the votes were present to pass this
resolution. and for that reason he
would not waste time with further
discussion. but would merely voice his
protest.
Recalls Filibuster.
Senator Reed of Missouri made a
brief reply. in which he called the
attention of his colleagues to the fili.
buster at the close of the last Con.
gress against a, resolution to continue
authority Of the special committee. !.
Senator Robinson, Republican, OF
Indiana, inquired II the passage OF
this resolution today would mean that
the committee could so into elections
in 1928.
Senator Reed Of Missouri replied
that he had no such intention unless
the Senate commands me to by
another resolution" He added that
