BEVERLY HILLS, Calf, May 16.--
The Senate has started shooting at
the London treaty. They asked
delegate, why did Japan get SO
much higher rating at London than
they did at Washington" well,
Japan demanded 1t and wouldn't
sign anything else" well, why did
we take smaller cruisers when we
wanted larger ones for our needs?"
I'VE had to take them to get a
treaty" So it looks like our boys
went after treaty and Japan's gang
went after ships. Well. they both
got 'em. So now, In case Of trouble
(which the diplomats say Is unbe-
lievable), why, for every ship they
send out to attack us, we shoot EN-
down with a treaty.

STOCKS SHOW GAIN
AT SHORT SESSION
Market Closes Steady After
Many Issues Advance.
Upward Trend Firm.
BY CLAUDE A. JAEGER,

Associated Press FINANCIAL WTlteT.
NEW YORK, May 24-The so-called
constructive forces appeared complete
" to have regained control of the
stock market today, but felt little in
clination to press their advantage. The
market closed firm, but advances were
small, and the days trading showed
only moderate acceleration from the
recent low levels. Total sales were
more than 100000 shares, compared to
last Saturdays turnover Of less than
10000, the smallest in nearly two
years.
Week end closing out of accounts ap-
peared to require more short covering
than selling, indicating that specula-
ton for the rise had been negligible this
week, at least until yesterdays moderate
rally. Although speculative sentiment
appeared to have considerably I'M
proved. there was little inclination to
resume bullish activity on any am
bilious scale until business news lndl-
Gates decided Improvement. Many
traders had left town for the week
end yesterday.
An unfavorable item in the days
news is Sears, Roebuck's sales report
for the four weeks ended May Il,
showing a drop of more than per cent
from the like period of 1929. sales
for the year to May 81 show an as-
gregate decline of only 2 Id per cent
from the like period last year. wan
street, however, has become hardened
to urfavorable comparison with this
pvIluI a year ago, as new hlgh rec
ords were being set in many lines OF
activity at that time. Sears, Roeouck
was not influenced by the sales report
and closed point higher.
Speculation for the rise was resumed
in some of the automotive equipments
and motor shares. Optimistic reports
from motor trade circles for April and
the first half of May indicate that
second quarter earnings will show
marked improvement over the frs;
quarter, and compare fairly well with
the like period of 1928, although there
is no hope of cqualing las; years alb
normal record.

Pile Sufferers End Your Misery Without
 Salves or Cutting

SXternal treatments cannot per manently end Piles Nor does cut ting remove the cause.
 The cause is internal-bad circu- lation of the blood in the lower bowel. The veins are flabby-thc bowel walls weak-the parts almos;. dead. To quickly and safely rid yourself of piles an internal medi- cine must be used to heal and strengthen the affected parts.
 Dr. J. $. Leonhardt, a specialist, after years of study discovered a real internal Pile remedy. He nanu- ed his prescription HEM-ROID, and prescribed it for 1000 patients, with the marvellous record of success Tn 960 cases, and then decided every Pile sufferer should be able to get HEM -ROID from their own drug gist.
 Don't waste time on external rem edies or think of the pain and ex- pense of an operation. Get a pack age of HEM-ROID from Fair Drug Dept. with their guarantee of mon ey-back if it does not end all Pile misery.

Muhlenberg College Head Says
 Social Le8ahSm Failure

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. 3 P}-The American practice of attempting to legislate morals was criticized by the Rev. Dr. J. A. w. Haas. presi- dent of Muhlenberg college, here today for the seventh biennial con- vention of the United Lutheran Church in America.
 We are again living in an age of social legalism," he said. Churches are expending their power, money and influence to cure people from desires and evils through prohibit ory laws. I am not discussing the necessity or value from the eco homie or social angle or restrictive laws, and I am not opposing any article of the constitution of our land in this statement. But I am contending that mistaken puritan ism is expending itself Tn a futile effort to make men good by law"

DRY LAW INVALID,
 DEFENSE ASSERTS
Jersey Lawyers to Claim Rad-
 hCation Was Not Legal

Trenton, N. J., Oct. 3 (UP) - A case to test the validity of the 18th amendment began in the United States district court here today.
 The defense for William Sprague, township clerk of Sussex County. contends that the amendment was ratified illegally and that the Vol stead act consequently is without force. Sprague is charged with driv- ing a truck loaded with beer.
 Many prominent New York law yers have joined the defense staff. One of them, Seldon Bacon, outlined their view as follows:
 While the tenth amendment left untouched the general provision for amendments and the method of pro- posing them, it wipes out the power of congress to select between the two methods of adopting amend ments affecting states as such, and reserves to the people exclusively the power of adopting any amend ments giving the federal government added powers over the people or their individual rights"

 The party in office promised us prosperity but instead we have never been so depressed as we are today. this being one of the signs of the incapability of the authorities.
 Cites Hayes Street Case
 Residents on Hayes street were forced to install curbs, going through that expense with the impression that the street would be graded and then paved. After waiting for some time for the street improvement they called on Mayor Quigley. who said there was no money for the work and it would be necessary to delay the improvements.
 This being an organization for the tax payers every property owner should take an interest in it's move ments." was the opening remark of the address of John Smolak, sec retary. Every property owner should bring up subjects for discus sion at our meetings that would be beneficial to city officials as well as members of the organization. which, in due time, will be one of the most powerful institutions of this city" he stated.
 The association will hold meet ings every second Wednesday of the month at their headquarters at the Union Painters hall, where plans will be made to carry it's activities in all wards of the city.

RELIEF FROM CURSE OF CONSTIPATION


 A Battle Creek physicians says. Constipation is responsible for mora misery than any other cause"
 But immediate relief has been found. A tablet called Rexall Or derlies has been discovered. This tablet attracts water from the sys- tenn into the lazy, dry, evacuating bowel called the colon. The water loosens the dry food waste and causes a gentle, thorough. natural movement without forming a habit or ever increasing the dose.
 Stop suffering from constipation. Chew a Rexall Orderlie at night. Next day bright. Get A for 25c to- day at the nearest Liggett or Rex all Drug Store.
