That tired feeling that persistent
headache, that bad breath are often
symptoms of constipation.
There il only one thing to do
clean out your system. Do It now
or you may be seriously sick. Your
intestines are clogged because you
have not eaten enough roughage.
And there is no better roughage
than that healthful, a~ppetizing
cereal-Kellogg's ALL-BRAN.
ALL-BRAN is a natural food
that brings natural results regu-
larry. Its fiber content sweeps the
~intestines clean Of poisonous
wastes. Much better than habit
forming pills which become useless
unless their dose il increased
In addition, K~ellogg'sALLBRAN
Is rich in iron. Scientific research
has proved that practically all Of
this iron goes into the blood-bring-
ing the glowing color Of health to
the complexion and strengthening
the entire body. A wonderful way
to enjoy keeping WELT 4.

In the face of the anti-prohibi-
ton drive, however, the Anti Saloon
leader expressed confidence dry
forces would be strengthened In

hold 20 per cent Of the House Of
Representatives.

The Association against the prohi-

the disbursements was listed 500. 600

ATOMIC POWER
NEARS REALITY
Iransmutation Hoped for AS
Result of Breaking Up
Of Atoms
BY HOWARD w. BLAKEsLEE
As Rciated Press Science Editor

BERKELEY. Calf. Sept. 1s-P-
A new kind OF atomic superpower
plant vas reported to the National
Academy Of Sciences today.
1t proposes to speed up atomic
hydrogen particles 10 about $1,000
miles q second so they can be used
As bullets TO lombard and possibly
break atoms Of other elements.
Breaking atoms Is one long sought
route 10 transmutation. and also to
unlocking the power OF the atom"
which means to find out whether
breaking I'D atoms will release a
lot Of power that can be set to work
running machinery.
The apparatus is a University of
California product. still incomplete.
but reported because Of its great
scientific interest. II is under devel-
cpment by Dr. Ernest d. Lawrence.
associate professor Of physics, and N.
II. Edlefsen.
Method Simple
The device is an excursion by q
new route into the long sought at
omic power field. Other methods
have required expensive. heavy
equipment and high power. DR..
Lawrence's machine could be set on
a chair and used with little power.
IL combines an alternating current
Of electricity and magnetism to set
the nuclei, or central mass. OF n.y.
drcgen atoms to whirling in widen
ing circles at constantly increasing
speed until finally they are shot out
OF the tube like a particle flicked
from the tip Of a cracking whip.
Their speed is equivalent to the en-
ergy produced by a one million volt
x-rayi tube. which is far greater than
any NY power yet available.
4 Interesting Results
The significance OF the $1,000 mile
speed may be understood in COM
parison with the rays" of radium
part Of which are atomic particles
travelling about $4,000 miles a second.
Scientists have shot these radium
particles into gases and knocked out
small pieces Of atoms. but lacked
enough speed TO break UP entire at
oms to any great extent.
! What speeds of atomic bullets are
/ needed TO break up atoms and put
to practical test the transmutation
and power production theories are
not known, but DR.. Lawrece said
"At the speeds predicted we are ge.-
ting into regions where interesting
things are likely to happen"

If a certain Judge who list
ened to testimony in q divorce
case in District Supreme Court
several months ago, could have
seen what transpired several
minutes after the hearing he
probably would have thought
twice before granting the
decree.
PERRY BONNER, 4 private
detective, had spent more than
an hour on the witness stand
and told graphically. every
minute detail of an affair
that had taken place in the
Maine woods two years prev
iously. HIS recollection of the
smallest details was amazing
and its impression on the court
was visible.
When Bonner left the witness
stand he could not remember
where he had left his hat only
a short while ago and court
room attaches had to assist
him in the search.
Looking back OUer the his
toric Nep York-PariS flight of
Col. Charles Lindber0h, one is
apt to forget the men W1to,
though staying behind ON the
ground, made the flight of the

their planning and furnishing
of finances. .r
One of these is WILLIAM P.

S1,786,737 SET
As 1880 GOAL
Of CHEST

The goal Of the Community
Chest for its 1880 campaign is set
at $1,7S6,737.
Corcoran Thorn. chairman Of
the budget committee, explained
the need for more money this
year by pointing out that IS ap-
peals are included in the call Of
the chest this year, whereas last
year only 81 appeals were includ-
ed. Thom's report, adopted yes
terday by the board Of trustees,
gave various other reasons for
the need Of more money.
Only one organization has with
drawn during the past year. while
10 have been added to the chest.
Included in the list Of new mem
bers are Garfield Hospital, Blu.
reau Of Rehabilitation, Hebrew
Free Loan Society, Holiday
House, Mother Child Center. Ma
tional Capital Civic Fund, st.
Annals Home for Aged Colored
Women, Starmont Aid for Con-
sumptives. Stoddard Baptist Old
Folks Home, Washington Insti-
tute for Mental Hygiene and the
Washington Welfare Association.
Several Of the member agencies
have. during the past year, in
creased their buildings and equip
ment, which will make for more
efficient work, but will also in
crease expenses. It was reported
that efforts to practice economy
the chest expense for the cam
paign and similar expenses has
been cut from 6 to 5k per cent.

light committee seek better street
lighting both In It's own area and
in other parts Of the city was
adopted.
A motion favoring two partic-
ular items in the school budget
was adopted. The items are
100000 for a school building on
the Broad Branch road site and
100000 for the purchase of q
school site west Of Connecticut
Avenue.
Officers of the association were
all reelected at the meeting. They
are: Arthur Adelman, president:

CENSUS AGENTS
| BEGIN WORK

The taking Of the first census
Of distribution in the District Of
Columbia started today.
Fifty special agents Of the
Census Bureau, who will later be
sent to various parts Of the coun-
try to make a national census,
have divided the city into dis
tricts covering three or four
blocks each, and, today, they
began to canvass the mercantile
establishments Of each.
/. The questions on each distribu-
zion schedule include a deScrip-
ton Of the business, the number
Of proprietorS or firm members,
the number Of paid employees, the
total amount paid in salaries and
wages, rent, interest ON borrowed
money, total other expenses,
stocks on hand, and net sales.
The data will be used only for
statistical tables, and no informa-
tion will be disclosed concerning
any individual concern, according
to the Census Bureau. The present
canvass is restricted to concerns
with annual sales Of $4,000 or
less. Larger establishments will
be caI1vassed later.
This census was authorized by
Congress in response to a general
demand from business men for
basic facts about the national dis
tribution system, DR.. r. j. McFall
chief statistician for distribution
of the Census Bureau, declared.

FINE ARTS BILL
SURE To PASS

With the next lull in the de-
bate on the tariff bill, there is
every likelihood that the Ship
stead bill, giving the Fine Arts
Commission control over exterior
appearance Of buildings erected
adjacent to Government reserva.
tions, viii be passed by the SEN
ate, adherents Of the measure de,
clared today.
The bill would have the Dis
trict Commissioners submit to the
Fine Arts body all applications
for building permits on sites ad-
jacent. to the Capitol grounds,
the White House grounds, the
portion Of Pennsylvania Avenue
from the Capitol to the White
House, Rock Greek Park, the Zoo
logical Park, the Rock Greek and
Potomac Parkway. Potomac Park
and the Mall Park system.
Designs Conform,
| The idea would be that the
| arts body would not recommend
granting permits except where
the structure to be erected in
general conformed to the design
Of government structures.
The bill is on the Senate
calender. and no opposition to
its enactment has thus far been
raised.
aside from the unquestioned
eSthetic values of monumental
buildings of the Federal Govern
ment, experience has shown that
such improvements invariably
enhance the value of adjacent
private property" declared Sen
ator Capper. of Kansas, in re-
porting on the bill.
Increase Values
"The exercise Of necessary con-
troll over the development of the
latter can not, by any process Of
reasoning, be regarded as an in.
vasion of private rights. It is be-
lieved that most of the property
owners affected will appreciate
the fact that the Federal build
ing and park projects have
greatly added to the values of
their holdings.
Erection of structures incon-
gruous to the Federal plan, on
land bordering any of the reser.
vationS mentioned in the bill, GER
tatnly would seriously detract
from the esthetic and intrinsic
values of public and private prop
erty alike"

A. j. DriScoll, who has served
as president Of the Mid-City Citi-
Gems Association for 10 consecu-
tive terms and who Is treasurer
Of the Monday Evening Club and
ia prominent member of the Board
Of Trade, was urged today at
the White House for appointment
as District Commissioner by a
delegation Of his friends.
The committee, consisting Of
Gilbert Hail, Frank B. Hoffman,
Francis DeSales Ryan. ana w. H.
Richardson, conferred with Walter
H. Newton, one Of the Presi-
dents secretaries, advising him
of the many qualifications which
would justify the appointment Of
Mr.. Driscoll.
G. o. p. Leaders Silent
Samuel J. Prescott, well-known
contractor and builder and chair
man Of the local Republican
executive committee. and Edward
F.. Colladay. Republican national
committeeman from the District,
called on Walter II. Newton, one
of President Hoover's secretaries.
a few days ago, to discuss local
political matters.
Secretary Newton attends to
the examination and investiga-
ton of claims of candidates for
appointments to public offices
by the President. He is a politi-
cal expert, and has other matters
to look after but this is one Of
his principal duties.
After the conference which
| lasted over an hour. Prescott
stated that neither he nor Cola
day had submitted any names to
Newton for consideration by the
President for any Of the local
offices, including those Of the
District Commissioners, chief jus
tice of the District Supreme
Court, Peoples Counsel, or any OF
the other offices to be filled
within a short time.
Has No Preference
~, Prescott furthermore stated
that the local Republican crgani
zation had no candidates to offer
for any of the offices nor given
its endorsement to any one. He
said that the organization had
no particular preference in the
matter. beyond the fact that the
new appointeeS should be Repub
icans in good standing, and
should be men closely associated
with the best interests of Wash.
iEgton.
It is well-known fact that the
local Republican organization has
not received that recognition at
the White House in the way OF
political appointments for the
District in recent years which its
le aderS wished. Earnest efforts are
being made by the organization
to strengthen its position in every
way in order to regain its some
what leSSened prestige.

TARIFF HOLDS UP .. C. DRY BILL IN SENATE
MONTH TO PASS
ERE PROGRESS
! MAY CONE

II President Hoover,s proposals de-
signed to make Washington q
model law-enforcement city have
nave struck q delay in the Senate.
Tnere Is little chance that his
suggestions for legislation will re-
cetVe any consideration for at
least a month, while the tariff re-
mains before the s; cate.
This was indicated today when
senator George w. Norris of Ne
hraska, chairman of the Judiciary
Committee. informed Senator Ar
thur Capper Of Kansas, chairman
Of the Senate District Committee,
that his group. would be unable to
consider Capper's measure provid-
ing for two additional judges for
the District Supreme Court until
after the tariff bill is out Of the
way.
The other proposal Of the Presi-
dent, to make Washington bone
dry and an enforcement code for
the city, has not even been finally
prepared. Senator Howell, who is
tathering this bit Of legislation, is
still at work ironing out differ
ences between himself and the De-
partment Of Justice as to just
what the bill win contain.
If, upon its introduction, the
Howell bill should be referred to
the Judiciary Committee, it will
likely meet the same delay en-
7 countered by the judgeship bill
Should it be referred to the Dis
trict bill, it's consideration should
be slightly more expeditions.
