BISHOP PLANS STUDY
OF COUNTRY CHURCHES
Conditions Improved by Combining
Adjoining Pastorates.

Settlement of the county church
problem is part Of the summer pro-
gram of Bishop Blake, resident
bishop Of the Indianapolis area. At
a meeting Of bishops early in Octo-
Der in Philadelphia definite national
recommendations will probably be
made.
Combination of small churches
into parishes in adjoining COM
munities and actual amalgamation
of several churches into one have
improved the conditions in southern
Indiana. No inter-denominational
groupings have been attempted, al
though such action may ultimately
grow out of the present movement,
it was indicated.

DAWES SPEECH
TO VOICE NAVY
STAND OF U. S.
Hoover Helped Draft Plea
for Reductions in War
ships.
BY LYLE G. WILSON
United Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, June 18.-Presi-
dent Herbert Hoovers plea for real
reduction Of the worlds navies was
TO be carried within the shadow Of
the British admiralty today when
Ambassador Charles G. Dawes ad-
dressed the Pilgrims Society in
London.
In more than the formal sense,
Dawes was speaking for the Presi-
dent.
The speech was drafted roughly
when the ambassador visited the
White House a few days prior to
sailing for Great Britain.
The speech was expected to con-
tain the principal arguments in be-
half of reduction expressed by
Hoover in his Memorial day address
At Arlington national cemetery.
Critical Moment Near
Observers Of the international
naval situation believe the critical
moment in the progress toward re-
duction will come when the various
governments permit their interpre-
tations Of HoOver's naval yard
stick" to become public. The Wig
orous moves Of the President and
Henry L. Stimson, secretary of
state. to keep the Importance of
naval reduction before the public
are believed to have been dictated
partly by a desire to CryStalize pub
lie opinion against possible propa-
ganda Of the big navy group when
technical details of reduction are
discussed.
It is recalled the United States
places her faith in 1OOO0-ton
cruisers armed with eight-inch
guns. Great Britain prefers 5000
ton cruisers with six-inch guns.
One Of the purposes Of Hoover's
proposed yardstick is to determine
whether these types of cruisers
properly may be matched, ton for
ton. or whether some disparity in
tonnage would produce actual
parity in naval strength.
If matched ton for ton, six 10000
ton American cruisers would equal
ten British 5000 ton each
group representing 10000 tons.
Tonnage Disparity Feared.
But there still would be disparity
of guns-American guns would be
of the greater caliber.
It is possible, therefore. the yard
stick might fix two or more British
6,OO0-ton vessels as the equal of one
or more American 10000-ton YES
sells.
If a two for one ratio were fixed
there would have to be a disparity
in tonnage because two British
cruisers would weigh 1000 tons more
than one American cruiser.
While providing for technical and
actual fighting parity. the yardstick
might establish a disparity in ton
mage in favor Of Great Britain.
That big navy men might assail
settlement on that score is not
overlooked by the administration.

There is no secret, no magic, no
mystery about Konjola. 1t is a.
scientifically blended remedy of 80
ingredients, % Of which are the
Juices of roots and herbs Of known
medicinal worth. Each Of these in
gradients has a mission to perform
| in relieving the ills Of the stomach,
liver, kidneys and bowels and rheu-
matism, neuritis and nervousness.
But learn the whole story of Kon-
lola; hear its remarkable history, as
| it wins success after success,
triumph upon triumph over cases
that have resisted and defied every
medicine and treatment tried. Meet
the Koniola Man, who is at the Hook
Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and
Washington streets, Indianapolis,
where daily he is explaining Kon-
| lola and its merits to all who come
| to find out what Konjola has done.
After all, sufferers are entitled to
all the facts about the medicine in
which they put their money, their
faith and their hope for health.
Profit by the experiences Of others.
Think over the experience of Mr..
Jason A. Hooten, operator Of the
Hooten Service Station, 1901 Orch
ard avenue, Indianapolis. Just few
DAYS ago, repoicing over his newly
found health, he said to the Kons
jola Man:
"I should have had Konjola long
| ago; it would have saved me g.
world of expense and suffering For
a long time I endured miseries from
stomach trouble. In fact, was in
poor health for twenty years. My
food simply refused to digest and
formed a heavy mass in the pit Of
my stomach. Gas formed in such
large quantities that I became short
winded and had wild heart palpita-
ton. I was so weak and nervous
that had to lie down three or four
times a day. Nervousness resulted
and constipation made matters a
great deal worse. Life was just a
constant round of suffering
"A friend told me about Konjol9
and said that this was the medi-
cine for me. I surely hoped for re-
lief, but had little faith in finding
it in Konjola, or any medicine. IN
fact, I was disguised with medicines
and treatments. But Konjola sure
" proved to be a different medi-
cine. Just as I was told it would do,
Konjola vent quickly TO the seat OF
my troubles. Constipation was
speedily relieved; my digestion i'm
proved and my appetite returned.
Konjola soothed and quoted my
nerves and in five weeks I was like
a different man. I have gained eight
pounds, have more energy and
strength and have been built up in
general That is why praise Kon-
jola."
So it goes-the same splendid
story Of success wherever Konjola
is given the chance to prove its
merits.
The Konjola Man is at the Hook
Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and
Washington streets, Indianapolis.
where he is meeting the public
daily, introducing and explaining
the merits of this master medicine.
