BACK TESTS FOR|
DRY AGENTS

Frank admission has been made
by the Civil Service Commits
sion that, until the prohibition force
was placed under the operation of
the civil service law and rules by
the act of March 5. 1927. most APP
pointmentS under the Prohibition
Bureau were affected by political
considerations. with resulting cor
ruption that has amounted to a
public scandal.
In a formal statement the COM
mission said 1t did not agree to the
assertion that mistake was made
when legislation required the In
cumbents of prohibition posts to
compete with others IL they wished
to have an opportunity to hold
their places.
''The commission believes that 1t
the competitive examination system
had not been applied to the In
cumbents, the same pressure would
have been brought to bear to retain
inefficient and corrupt employees in
their places that was exerted to put
them there In the first instance,

How to Have Soft,
Pretty White Hands

Many women will undoubtedly be
glad to know how they may have
beautiful, white, soft, pretty hands re-
gardIess of the work they do. The
secret lies in rubbing little Ice-Mint
into the hands occasionally preferably
just before retiring at night. In the
morning you will be agreeabIy sur
prised at the pleasant transformation
that has been wrought by even a single
application. Ice-Mint is made from a
Japanese product that Is simply mar
velous for its beautifying properties
whether used ~on the hands or face.
Regardless of what kind of work a
woman does she should have pretty
hands as they are really the true
marks Of refinement. A few applications
of Ice-Mint will actually make any
woman proud Of her hands and skin.
1t costs little and is sold and recon-
mended by good druggists everywhere.

wary eyes on the corn belt con-
ference being held at. Des Moines,
Iowa.
The perfect harmony with which

port Of the McNary- Haugen bill was
reported threatened by the Des
Moines conference. Some delegates
to this session were said to he
opposed to the new compromise bill
because it carried Government
Loan provision as substitute for
the equalization fee.
The Western farm groups were
said to favor a battle to the finish
for the old McNary-Haugen bill,
which imposed the equalization fee
and Government marketing Of SUR
plus crops as soon as any crop
prices declined.
Debate on the new bill. which
was amended to eliminate sections
that met President Coolidge's dis
approval, was. expected to continue
all week. In the opening debate,
Senators Watson R.) of Indiana
and McNary Rl of Oregon pre-
dicted the measure would stabilize
farm prices. make the tariff effec-
tive on farm products and relieve
agriculture OF the deflation periods
following each bumper crop in any
major commodity.
Opposition to the bill conferred
chiefly among Eastern Senator'S,
who were opposed to the equaliza-
ton fee under all circumstances.
