DRAFT BILL TO
Give NAVY 400
new AIRPLANES
Britten Urges Measure to
Ask 100000 for
EIvinn Service.
BY JOSEPH S. WASNEY
limited Press staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON, Jan. ia new
$4,000, 900 navy aviation program
was being drafted today by Chair
man Britten of the house naval at
fairs committee.
After a careful study of the
navy's air status, 3ritten has de-
cided It needs 200 more planes to
put it on a par with other sea
powers.
More Planes Needed
1.-THE navy fiVe-year aircraft
building program, which gives us
1000 modern planes by July l, 1921,
is inadequate" Britten told the
United Press. "The navy has but
500 planes and this is insufficient.
81 propose to ask the next con-
qress 70 ran 100000 appropriation
for the purchase of 400 new modern
fighting and scouting planes so the
United States will be up to the 5-5-3
ratio in the air and be in q position
to care for itself in any emergency"
Britten pointed out with the new
plane carriers Lexington ana sara
toga and the new cruisers expected
to be authorized, new planes would
be necessary to equip these ships.
Builds Two Dirigibles
Britten said the navy's lighter
than-air program would be ex-
banded by the two huge 6,5O0,0OO
cubic feet dirigiSIes being built at
Akron. These ships WI! have many
improvements over the Graf-zep-
pelin which recently made round
trip Atlantic voyage from Eerlir
he said.
"Just how far the lighter-than-
air aircraft program will be deTel-
oped remains to be seen, however"
he said. 1.-THE navy plans many
tests to determine if the giant dir
igibles are adaptable to wartime
work or if theyare esay prey for
fight planes"

What Doctors Think
of the
Laxative Habit

In all history, no Indian was ever
known to have constipation. Nor
need YOU. He chewed the bark Of a
tree called cascara. Today, we have
the candy CaScaret.
Cascarizing the bowels never forms
laxative habit. If already formed,
an occasional Cascaret will usually
break the habit. For cascara
strengthens the muscular walls of
the bowels, and their need of any
aid at all grows constantly less
What other cathartic has this char
acteristic? The wrietr knows o
none.
An evacuation brought gently
about by cascara will, nine times in
ten, be followed by full functioning
OF the bowels on the morrow-and
for days after. For there is no RE-
ACTION as with sickening salts, or
any of the man-made purgatives
that go through ones system like a
bullet.
Physicians tell us cascara is the

defied every treatment, resisted every
medicine until the marvellous Kon-
joia was tried. What wonder
full thing it would be if all who
suffer could read the thousands of
voluntary testimonials this master
medicine has received from those it
has rescued from the clutches of
disease. All who suffer are urged
to meet the Konjola Man, who is at
Hooks drug store, Illinois and
Washington StS., this city, explain
ing the powers and accomplishment
of this super-remedy. He will show
you what Konjola has done and is
doing, and all who suffer may have
every hope that through Konjola
they may go quickly from the world
Of pain and suffering into the bright
realm of new and glorious health.
There is nothing of magic about
Konjola; it is compound that
Mother Nature herself might have
made. Of its 80 ingredients, % are
the juices of roots and herbs Of
recognized notwithstanding powers.
Konjola contains no nerve-deaden
ing drugs: no heart-depreSsants. 1t
is soothing, healing compound
that works quickly and directly on
the ailing organs. It's results are
quick and lasting; it is not designed
to afford mere temporary relief. The
proof of the value Of any medicine
lies in its deeds-and the record OF
Konjola as medicine of deeds, not
words and promises, is truly remark
able. Consider the case of Mrs.
Dora Armstrong, r. r. No. 6, Box
101, indianapolis, who said to the
Konjola Man a few days ago:
"All the money in the world could
not buy the health that Konjola--
the greatest medicine in the world
has restored TO me. For twenty
years I suffered from stomach trou-
BILE, which became chronic while I
doctored and tried countless medi-
cines and treatments in vain. I had
little or no appetite, and anything
/ ate caused gas pains and bloating.
Hot, sour liquids came into my
throat, and I suffered the weakness
that always follows indigestion. Year
after year, as tried this and that,
I became worse, and was so de-
pleted all over that / was about to
give up in despair Of ever being
better.
"Konjola was recommended
strongly by several friends who had
taken this new medicine, and /
started the treatment. To my JOY
and surprise I began to feel inn
provement with the very first bot
tie. Seven more bottles completely
restored my health. I can eat what
ever I like, and I am hungry all
the time. can sleep well. and my
strength and energy are coming
back by leaps and bounds. have,
in fact, taken a new lease on life.
All hail Konjola. / shall sing its
praises forever"
Remarkable, yes. but there are
thousands of such cases on Kon-
jola's records and surely what Kon-
joJa proved In this case of twenty
years standing, should convince all
who suffer of the wondrous merits
of this super medicine. The Kon-
jola Man is at the Hook drug store.
Illinois and Washington Streets,
this city, where he is meeting the
public daily. explaining the merits /.
Of this amazing compound. Kon-
jola is sold in all the Hook drug
stores. and by all leading druggists

The court Of last resort held that the verdict OF

case, he said:
1T would be q strange doctrine In America that

There are thousands Of bread winners in England
and Wales who have been idle for a long time. Nil
lions Of dollars have been disbursed by the govern
ment to provide shelter and food for this army Of
idieTs. Indeed the great labor victory in England
was brought about by the promise Of Ramsay Mac
Donald and his leutenants to do something substan-
tial for the unemployed Of the empire.
On the opening day Of the house Of commons, James
M. Thomas, minister Of employment, made a very
significant speech. He said the blight Of unemploy-
ment" in England viii not be wiped out by any magic
cure. Nevertheless he asserted trade was improv-
ing and there was in the long run cause for opti-
mism.
According to the London correspondent Of the As
ISOLATED Press. Thomas brought O hush In the house
with his outsponken admission that in some districts
Of the country there is no hope whatever Of work for
thousands and hundreds Of our fellowmen no matter
what is done"
And yet England Is said to be the most powerful Of
al nations by her champions; the richest Of all ma
items; the mistress Of the seven seas; the queen OF
the commerce Of the world. Now what disposition
will be made Of "the thousands and hundreds Of our
feIlowmen" for whom there is no hope? Unemplcy-
ment is a blight and it is q blight that has stricken
one Of the proudest Of nations.
