Employment of Americas idle
millions during the first three
months Of 1880 would have turned
the tide Of business from reces-
sion to advance, William Green,
president of the American Fedora
ton of Labor told the Senate
Commerce Committee today.
Appearing before the committee
in consideration Of three Wagner
bills designed to relieve unemploy-
ment, Green asserted that had
the 100000 estimated unem-
ployed workers been employed
they would have created nearly q
billion dollars of wealth.
Supporting the Wagner bills,
Green urged Congress TO take
steps to take the haunting fear"
of unemployment out Of the
American workers mind.
Unemployment" he said, "is
q most demoralizing experience.
Standards of living go down, then
begins physical, mental, and
spiritual deterioration which may
be cneCkeO II JOO Is AOuLlu La

scars which impair the physical
and embitter the spirit"
AS possible remedial measures
for the unemployment situation,
Green suggested legislation de-
signed to provide adequate census
of unemployment, stabilization
measures which would regularize
production, and acknowledgment
Of responsibility to workers by
the employers.
He would have Congress set up

One of the interesting experiences
recently related to the Konjola
Man, at the Hook Dependable drug
store, Illinois and Washington
streets, Indianapolis. is that of Mr..
George w. CopSey, aged II, residing
at 703 West Thirty-first street, In
dianapolis, who recently came snil~
ing into the store to relate his ex~
perience with this new medicine.
The Konjola Man, who is at the
service of all who wish information
about this great compound, can cite
case after case, right here in this
community, where this great medi-
cine has won friends through it's
amazing merit. Call there and get
the story. The Konjola Man is
giving free samples and literature.
What could really be wiser than to-
follow in the footsteps Of those
men and women who, to their ever
lasting JOY, have put their faith in
this great medicine. Here is the
experience which Mr.. Copsey related
to the Konjola Man:
81 am II years Of age and haG en-
joyed good health up TO about thirteen
years ago, when I began to have trOu-
BILE with my stomach. NY food began
to turn sour in ny stomach and cause
gas and bloating and bring on spells
Of belching. ! tried many medicines
and treatments, but nothing helped.
Ny kidneys became weak and I was
forced to rise many times nightly. Ny
color was bad and 1 was subject to
terrible dizzy spells. My bowels, too,
were very irregular and gave me a
great deal Of worry. was fast losing
weight and strength and was finally
forced to medicine.
"In 1926, after all other medicines and
treatments had failed, ! began taking
Konjola. 1t began to show results at
once and although 7 took a great many
bottles, can surely say that Il is the
only thing that did me any good. 1t
built me up and ended all my suffer-
ing. II made me feel better than I
had felt in 10 years. For the past four
years / have worked steadily and, for
man of my age, think that is Won
taking KOnjola, 1 feel better in every
way
Given fair trial, usually over a pc
Rod of from six TO eight weeks, this
great medicine brings about A relief
that is permanent and lasting. Mr..
Copsey's experience IS no different than
that of thousands Of others. Try Kon-
jola today.
