HOUSE 0.k'S $125,000
TO EDUCATE NEGROES
Democratic Machine and Plea for
Economy Are Broken by Nor

By a staff Correspondent of The Star.

By Staff Correspondent of The Star.
ANNAPOLIS. Md, April 2.-The
Democratic party's House machine
and its plea for economy was broken
tonight in favor of better education
for the negroes of Maryland. when
the House of Delegates passed a bill
providing for the creation of a State
debt of $125,000 for Morgan College.
in Baltimore. where the teachers of
negro schools throughout the State
are trained. The bill was particu-
larly pressed by delegates from the
county below Washington, on the pen
insula formed by the Potomac River
and Chesapeake Bay, where it was
pointed out there was a great need
for better teachers, to guide the
colored youth there, and make them
better citizens of Maryland Party
lines were badly broken.
Delegate Lawrence E. Williams.
Democrat, Of Wynne, st. Mary's
County. said that there was a great
need for properly trained colored
teachers in the lower end of Maryland,
and that. it was the duty of the State
to educate these people so that they
could become good citizens. They
will always be in the State, and can
be made good citizens, if proper teach
ers are provided, he said. He pointed
out that this had been a difficulty in
the past, and that aid for Morgan Col.
lege would help to better the coIored
teaching personnel sent to these
schools. His argument was generally
followed by Delegates Joseph Allison
Wilmer, Republican. of Faulkner,
Charles County; Joseph f. Joy, Re.
publican, OF olivet, Calvert County,
all In the peninsular section. and Rob
ert E. Ford, Democrat, of Baltimore.
Delegate Lindsay, in supporting his
motion to recommit the bill to com
mittee, said that he was for the ad.
vancement Of the colored race. but
that the chief executive was respon-
sible for the expenditure, and had he
thought this good one he would
have recommended it in the letter. He
made strong appeal for party sup
port, but lost his motion by II to 81.
and the measure was passed by G2

POLITICS IN FOR
 GOOD CLEANING
Borah Expresses His Views on
 Campaign Methods

Washington, Jan. ' LP The American political campaign system is due for a thorough cleaning, in the opinion of Senator Borah, re- publican. Idaho. The senator made known his views in an address last night before the citizens committee of one thousand for law observance and enforcement. He uttered a sweeping denunciation of what he said was the present practice of hay ing campaigns financed by those in terested in legislation and govern nent policies, and called for showdown on the question by the political parties in 1928.
 Declaring the existing system in evitably must bend the government injury and disparagement of the many" the Idaho senator said it would Infinitely better for the peo- pie of this country to have political parties treated as quasi-govern- mental institutions. to the extent at least ol lilt SoNtl llllItil ltlhIllS Nctl ' of the actual legitimate cost of a campaign rather than to encounter the evils of private financing"
 He said he did not regard the business interests as more to blame than the political parties and as serted that the period of unpar- alleled corruption" through which the country is now passing "is the legitimate fruit of the practice of the last 30 years-the inevitable harvest of our own deliberate and persistent planting"
 Although he mentioned no names. Senator Boyah asserted "a gentleman in Chicago inteiested in certain lines of business contributes heavily to a friends campaign who is in public position to serve his interests.
 This" he added. 'is fundament- ally the basis of all these large cam paign contributions. It was and is no different. bad as it is and indc- feasible as it is, from accepting con- tributions of those vitally concerned with tariff duties, the reduction of income taxes, the enforcement of trust laws. and like matters. as wo are constantly doing in every cam paign.'

SALTS fine FOR
ACHING KIDNEYS
When Back Hurts Flush Your
Kidneys as You Clean
Your Bowels

Most folks forget that the kid
neys, like the bowels, sometimes get
sluggish and clogged up and need a
flushing occasionally, else we have
backache and dull misery in the
kidney region, severe headaches,
rheumatic twinges, torpid liver, acid
stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts
of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kid
neys active and clean and the mo-
nent you feel an ache or pain in
the kidney region, begin drinking
lots of water. Also get about four
ounces of Jad salts from any good
drug store here, take tablespoon
full in a glass of water before break
fast for a few days and your kid
neys will then act fine. This fa-
nous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and is intended to flush
clogged kidneys and help stimulate
them to activity. 1t also helps neu-
tralize the acids in the urine so
they no longer irritate, thus helping
to relieve bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes a
delightful effervescent lithia water
drink which everybody should take
now and then to help keep their
kidneys clean.
A well-known local druggist says
he sells lots of Jad Salts to folks
who believe in trying to correct kid
ney trouble while it is only trouble.
