Home Made, but
Ends Bad Cough
In a Hurry

To end a stubborn cough quickly, it
is important to soethe and heal the in
famed membranes, get rid of the germs
and also to aid the system inwardly to
help throw off the trouble.
For these purposes, here is a home
made medicine, far better than any
thing you could buy at 3 times the
cost. From any druggist, get 212 ounc-
es of Pinex. Put this into a pint bot
tie, and add plain graduated sugar
syrup or strained honey to fill up the
pint. This takes but moment, and
makes a remedy so effective that you will
never do without, once you have used
it. Keeps perfectly, and children like it.
This simple remedy does three neces-
sary things. 1t loosens the germ-laden
phlegm and soothes away the inf1am-
nation. At the same time it is alb
sorbed into the blood, where it acts d.
rectly on the bronchial tubes. This ex-
plains why it brings such quick relief,
even in obstinate bronchial coughs and
"fu" coughs.
Pinex is a highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway Pine, con-
tanning the active agent of creosote, IN
refined, palatable form, and known
as one of the greatest healing agents
for severe coughs, chest colds and
bronchial troubles.
Do not accept a substitute for Pinex.
1t is guaranteed to give prompt relief
Or money refunded.

CAR DREAMS GROW
Royal Russian ExiIes See
Hope to Regain Power.

EsI United Press
LONDON, March IL The sha-
dowy but stout hearted white
army" of Russian monarchist exiles
suddenly has stirred into intense
activity again to pursue the faint
hope of establishment of the
glory of the cars in the soviet re-
public.
This hope is prompted by the
present split in soviet ranks and
rumor of unrest in Russia.
Thousands of men and women
who fed when royalty crumbled in
1916 again have been encouraged
to believe that they soon may re-
turn to their native country as con-
querors.
An Exchange Telegraph dispatch
from Berlin today said monarchist
leaders had expressed optimistic
hopes of restoration of the Rus
sian empire within the next few
years probably after 1882.

in Germany, has been recognized

PARIS, March 1.-THE proposed
bank for handling international war
debts settlements was visualized to-
day as one of the greatest stabil-
izing centers in the world and one
of the strongest incentives to in
ternational peace.
An analysis of the plan for the
bank, made public in the first Off

perts have completed the first step
in efforts to transfer reparations

political control to something ap-
proXimating nonpolitical peace

HOOVER DRY
QUIZ TO Center
ON JUDICIARY
Inquiry to Seek Remedy for
Weaknesses in Court
System.
BY PAUL r. MALLON
United Press staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, March 11.-Presi-
dent Hoover intends to make his
proposed prohibition investigation
great national legal inquiry into the
technicalitieS of the present judi
cial system, rather than an inquiry
into the question of prohibition, it
was learned from one of his close
friends with whom he has discussed
the subject.
All wet and dry agitators are to
be barred from the commission.
It's membership will be made up
largely of attorneys of national rep
dtation, at least one federal judge,
perhaps a member of congress, a
representative from the justice de-
partment probably the attorney
general, national economists and au-
thorities in welfare work.
Efforts of the commission will be
directed particularly in such prob
lens as whether federal judges
should pick juries and thus speed
up the administration of justice,
whether jurists may give their opin-
ions to juries regarding evidence
and facts in a case so as to shorten
the length of jury deliberations and
such other technical questions of
court procedure.
No attempt may be made to go
into the question of whether prohi-
bition is being enforced or how wide
ly the law is being violated.
The commission may sit in public
and summon district attorneys, en-
forcement officials and judges as
witnesses to advise as to what cor
receive measures are deemed neces-
sary.
1t probably will be divided into
subcommittee for various side in
quiries into higher involved abuses
of the present law.

OFFER REMEDY
!. IN CONTROL OF
UTILITY RATES
Politics Should Be Divorced
From Regulation, Says
Expert in Article.

Rejecting what he terms wide
spread discomfort with the rate
regulation of public utilities" in In
diana, Taylor E. Groninger, In
dianapolis attorney, offers a remedy
for the situation which features
absolute enforcement of politics
from Utility regulation" in an
article in the current issue Of the
Indiana Law Journal.
Groninger an authority on util-
tiles, compiled the physical valua-
ten of the Indiana Bell Telephone
Company for the public service
commission five years ago.
He declares in his article that
four conditions are responsible Tor
the growing discomfort with the
handling of the majority of state
utilities.
Four Conditions Responsible
Tbev are: politics, avarice on
the mart of owners, managers and
operators, inability on the part OF
regulatory bodies and municipalities
to protect the public interest and
the ease of judicial interference
with rate orders"
After citing several instances OF
irregularities in public utility nan
ding in other states, Gronlnger
saws of Indiana
"In our own state it is matter
uot of SANDER, but of Shamefully
common knowledge that public utll-
ities have exercised bipartisan
lobby control of legislative action
turing the past two sessions OF our
lawmakers,
Utilities Control Legislation
"stIt is but mild exaggeration to
say that the third house had a larg-
er membership than either the
house OF. senate. We all know that
st takes money to maintain the
third house and that the expenses
are finally paid by the rate payer.
"Members Of regulatory bodies ire
auently are appointed as reward tor
nolitical service without regard Tor
their qualifications, and as a result
those who are representing the pub
lie in utility regulations are not as a
rule trained or equipped as are those
who represent the utility. Inc re-
ssuIt is that the utility wins In al
most every important contest.
-. -. Cironinger suggests the following
e. tho csit1IQtIOn.
rar Remedies for Evils
"Absolute enforcement of politics
from utility regulation.
i''' ..The avarice of greedy owners
and operators should be curoeo.
This could be done through com
mission orde~s and court decisions.
q incapable regulatory officials
should be supplanted by capable
ones. 49,
"a lawyer, specially qualified IN
utility law, should represent the
public before the regulatory BODY.
Such a lawyer should be elected OF
appointed by the encouragement
sr- Courts should Use Discretion
2 "The municipalities of our state
should be aroused to the Importance
Of looking afte- their own interests
in all utility matters.
81 1.-THE courts should exercise their
power to overthrow rate orders only
in the cleareSt cases"
81 C4roninger also urges deflnlCe'
stable determination of the rate base
! in all utilities, and declares that dis
contentment will continue to be
widespread until such bases are
established.
