The Cherry
!" Where with our
Tree Little Hatchet
we tell the truth
about many things. sometimes pro-
foundly, sometimes flippantlv.
sometimes recklessly.

we learn from the newspapers of
the Scripps Howard chain that there
are between $500 and 5000 men and
women IN the secret service or spv
army OF the United States and these
cost the people something like S12.-
ooo,ooO year in salaries, to say moth
ing OF OF expenses and wear and tear.
Inc secret service began years ago
with small group of men assigned to
the job of detecting counterfitters
/ and moonshine makers. The business
never really amounted to much until
the World War, which gave so manv
other parasites their start in life. in
Guiding the army of propagandists.
Now the United States needs seq.
ret service, but it doesn't need some
OF the secret service it is getting. It
could very well do without the snoon-
ing and house breaking that is be-
ing done under the guise Of secret
service.
IL is queer but interesting fact
that the governments big spy army
can go marauding around looking for
two-pint liquor law violators, but it
cannot legitimately operate to find
out what revolutionary plots are being
hatched by communist agents of Mos
COW.
VI course a good many people do
not believe that Moscow is sure
enough revolutionary institution, but
1t issues, nevertheless, it's secret in
structions to its secret agents in the
United States, ordering them how to
proceed toward the overthrow of the
government of the United States. A
good many people consider that a
hostile operation. But the spy army
cannot dig into it at all.
In many ways the spy army is used
for purpose that are unknown to the
people and that would be resented by
the people, but in many other ways
it is hampered where it might be USE
full.
On the whole spy army is bad
thing for Republic Originally, spy
armies were used by autocrats to pre-
vent the development of democratic
governments.
Out in California, Estelle Smith
who identified" Warren Billings in
the Mooney Billings case, admits now
that she lied, saying she never was
sure about that identification of Bill
ings as the man who threw the pre-
paredness parade bomb twelve years
ago.
This confession destroyed about the
last of the so-called case made out by
the state.
The queer Oxman blew up long ago
and admitted his deceit. Ar Of the
living jurors in the case have asked
for pardon for Mooney and Billings.
This request also has been made by
the trial judge, the captain of detec-
tives and the captain Of police in
volved in the case.
The governor has shown a strange
reluctance to bestir himself, but he
does now condescend to say that Sin
the spring" he will review the case.
How lead-footed public officials can
be at times!

WASHINGTON, July 15.-Issu-
ance Of a passport to Dorothy Detz-
er. American pacifist. despite her
refusal to take an oath to defend"
the Constitution has the support Of
several precedents, state department
officials said today.
Consequently it was believed that
the protest of H. Ralph Burton,
Washington lawyer. would not cause
the case to be reopened. Burton'S
letter, has not yet reached Secretary
Henry Stimson, it was said today.
officials took the attitude that
passport regulations we're matters
of departmental administration, and
passports merely aids to citizens;
hence they declined to discuss
whether any constitutional question
was involved.
Miss Deter holds that the grant,
ing of the passport amounts to a
ruling that the recent Rosika
SchWimmer supreme court decision
does not apply to passports.

CHICAGO, July i5.-Back in the

which saw him rise from the OBJ
scure son Of a slave mother to the
cole Negro representative in con-
gress Of 12,O00,0OO American mem
bers of his race, Congressman Oscar
De Priest has launched a fight for
race equality under the law.
De Priest drove up to the Metro
bolitan Methodist church in big
pastel shade limousine Sunday
night and mounted the pulpit before
q Negro audience for his first public
appearance here since he was ele-
waited from ward heeler to congress-
plan.
He delivered a fighting address. in
which he announced he would or
ganize "the prosperous colored folk
OF the north to rescue the disfran-
chiSed black poems Of the south"
The congressman said he pro-
posed to introduce a federal election
law bill chat will create more storm
than the White House tea party
That was De Priests only refer
ence to the controversy over Mrs.
Hoover's entertainment Of Mrs. De
Priest at a White House tea. He
eaind ne would fight mot for social
equality but for equality under the
law"
He said that with federal cleo
ton law and an enforcement of the
Constitution we will make the
southern states give the Negro his
vote or NE will reduce the states
representation in congress-.
De Priest said he was mailing 10
200 copies of the Constitution TO pO-
liticaI leaders Of the country. He
said his election bill would set up a
federal election board which would
prevent southern states from dis
franchising Negroes on educational
grounds.

America. More than a million fore
n1er sufferers are its lifelong boost
ers. More than twenty thousand
bottles are consumed daily. Kon-
lola is shipped in carload lots
throughout twenty-five states. In
one city, three weeks after it was
first introduced, three carloads we're
sold. In one state q million bottles
we're sold in four months. More
than five hundred newspapers car
ny the glorious word Of Konjola's
amazing powers; its merits and &C
conplishments There can be but
one reason for such astounding Sue
cess and that reason is that Kon~
lola makes good-that it does all
that is claimed for it. A personal
representative of Konjola is in In
dianapolis to tell all sufferers about
this super-remedy. He is the Kon~
jola Man and is at the Hook De-
pendable Drug Store, Illinois and
Washington streets. His is mis-
sion of helpfulness; his aim is to aid
all sufferers to find the glorious
road to health. Just how we'll he
is accomplishing this is shown in
the statement that Mrs. Robert
West, 1919 Wade street, Indian
apols, made few days ago. To the
Konjola Man Mrs. West told this
story of the work Of Koniola in
her case:
Il was in highly nervous condi-
ton before Konjola scored another
one Of its marvellous victories.
did not beieve-can hardly believe
it now-that one medicine could
work so quickly and thoroughly, as
Konjola did in my case. These
nervous spells came on me when L
least expected them and made me
weak as kitten From morning to
night I felt sick and rundown.
Knowing that l was in dire need Of
good medicine and tonic I cast
about frantically for the right medi~
cine. But it was denied me at first,
for nothing I tried ever benefited
me. Then I hard about Kon1ola,
and its wonderful merits, so I de-
cided to give it trial.
That was one Of the Wisest de-
cisions I ever made for Konjola was
what 7 should have had in the first
place. 1t did not take this splendid
medicine long to take hold. The
first bottle showed me that I vas
on the right track and that health
was just around the corner. OF
course, I kept taking this medicine
and in four weeks I completed the
fourth bottle. In just that length
of time all my woes left me. My
nerves we're soothed and quoted
and I rapidly gained back my LOST
strength and energy. Today I can
hardly believe that I was ever in
distress. Konjola worked wonders
and I indorse it TO all who suffer
for it is, indeed. the master medi-
cine
It is not logical to believe that
what Konjola has done for Mrs.
West, as well as for thousands Of
others, 1t will do for you. and for
everyone? Konjola merely asks the
chance to make you well.

months ago. I had a severe stom-
ach attack that kept me in bed six
weeks. I couldn't hold any food on
my stomach. and I got extremely
weak and lost weight rapidly. Moth
ing seemed to help me, and was
terribly discouraged when I hap
pened to read about Viuna and de-
cided to try it. That vas the turn
ing point. Before I had finished the
first bottle. 7 felt d, great change
for the better. Now my stomach is
fine, and / can eat anything with

The headaches, which were terrible,
have all gone. and so have the hot
flashes. I am better in every way
than I have been for years, and am
rapidly regaining my lost weight"
