Mix a thin paste of SchiIling Cinnamon and hot water. Do likewise with any other cinna- mon. Dip a cube of sugar in each of these pastes, and place on the tongue. Then you de- eide which has the finer flavor! The comparison is unmistak- able because Schilling's is made from the finest Saigon Cassia cinnamon bark--unadulterated

Paid Liars" Charged
 To Democratic Party

Worcester, Mass, Oct. 2S (UP) Democrats were charged with having hired paid liars to vilify President Hoover" in an address by Secretary of War Patrick J. Hurley last night before 1700 re- publicans here.
 His address was part of the re- publican congressional campaign in central Massachusetts.
 Every presidential campaign pledge of 1928 has been fulfilled, Hurley said.
 Our country" he asserted, lis struggling in the backWash of worldwide economic crisis. The great drought and the collapse ot our own stock boom have been contributing factors but the ma jor causes of the crisis lie outside the United States. For example, the overproduction of wheat in Canada, the Argentine, Australia. India, and Russia created a world over-supply which brought about a collapse in the price and has paralyzed the buying power of tohse countries"
