Congress Reapportionment
Common Good Issue, He
Tells G. O. P. Chief.
BILL COMES UP IN 1881
Democrats Leader Warns
Against Petty Politics
by Either Party.

Fairness in adoption of a reap
portI )nment bill in the 1881 Indiana
assembly was urged in a letter to-
day from r. Earl Peters, Democratic
state chairman, to ETA 0. Rogers,
Republican chairman.
Legislation reducing the number
of representatives because of in
creased population forces the next
session Of Indiana's legislature to
reapportion congressional districts.
Indiana, now represented by thir-
teen congressman in the house, will
have only eleven districts.
The bill for rediStricting will arise
in the Indiana house of representa-
tives, in which the Democrats will
have majority of fifty over the Re-
publicans.
Peters sought Rogers co-opera-
ton in preventing petty politics
from entering into consideration of
the bill.
Exclusively Political
"Reapportionment of congress
sional districts in Indiana looms as
one of the perplexing problems con-
fronting the next general assembly.
The question presented is exclu-
sively political" Peters wrote.
Doubtless you will agree with me
that the patience of the public will
be tested severely if representatives
of our respective parties maneuver
for narrow partisan advantage in
this important matter. Such in
diligence only could result in con-
fusion.
"The Democratic party favors re-
apportionment on a basis of abso-
Lutte fairness to both political par

following suggestions:

a reapportionment plan that will be
fair in every respect to both polit-
ical organizations.

w One week after election, the
fate Of the next American con-
gress today appeared to hang on
the decision of three men OF for

The three are Henrik Shipstead,
Farmer Labor senator of Mime

Farmer-Labor member from the
same state. and Representative FL
orello H. La Guardia. Independent
Republican of New York City. In
their hands may rest whether the
Democrats or the Republicans. con-
troll congress.
Each is keeping his own counsel,
despite covert attempts of party
leaders to win them over.
1t is, indeed. a strange situation
in which the trio so often exiled
finds itself
Only a short time ago they were
assigned to the tail-end of minor
committees and given seats in the
back row in house and senate.
Now they can have almost any
thing if only!

HAMILTON, N. ", August 2a.---Here
is unusual scientific news for those who
enjoy eating.
Scientists at Colgate University this
Fall are going to digress from the
usual routine of finding out what is
good for a person to eat and see
whether there may be direct benefit
from eating according to what a per-
son likes.

DR.. Donald A. Laird The plans are

There has been tendency III diet

Authorities recognize that the proc

by psychological factors, as well as by
the chemical constituents of the food
eaten, and that the eaters whole tenn
permanent may be affected by good or
bad digestion. There has, however,
been a dearth Of scientific work to
measure these effects, not to mention
the desirability of having practical

SEA GYPS|ES Use
MODERN DEVICES
Strange Paradoxes Present
ed by DeveI, ment of
SuIu orimitiveS.

BY the Associated Press.
MANILA, August 26.-The Baiaos, or
sea gypsies, Of the Sulu Sea, who live
their lives in tiny canoes and have
long evaded the hence of civiliza-
ton, have succulnbed at length to the
US. of flashlights, diving goggles, and
in some cases even alarm clocks.
This paradox of modern and print
tive life IS related by Carl M. Taylor,
former professor at re University OF
the Philippines, who recently completed
tour Of several weeks among the little
known Bajaos, with whom he lived
while studying the smuggling of opium
and Chinese into the Philippines.
ParadOxes Are Many.
"They are living in a state of devel-
opment that presents many surprising
paradoxer :" said Mr.. Taylor. They are
so primitive that they apparently have
no word --eaning God or gods, and they
seem to be devoid Of folklore or myth
ology. They are born in tiny canoes
hewn from the trunks of trees, and
their entire lives are spent in these
boats. They have no arts and crafts
other than woodca-ving and the weav-
ing of fishnets, and yet they make
as matches, flashlights, diving goggles,
and in some cases alarm clocks"
Mr.. Taylor said that he was assured
by the old men of the Bajaos that they
had no idea where they came from,
and he quoted them as saying, We
have never been told where we came
from n who made the world. And we
have been too busy catching fish to
think about such things ourselves"
In Floating Villages.
1.-THE Bajaos," he said. Give in large
floating villages, composed of hundreds
of canoes and households, and they are
continually on the move. They might
be called nomadS of the sea, for they
follow the migrations Of the fish as
the jewellers in the desert follow their
fiocks. Occasionally they stray as far
southwark as Java and as far north as
the Visayan Islancs of the Philippines,
but their central rendezvous is in the
neighborhood of South Sulu. There are
perhaps 10000 Of them, and their larg-
est communities contain as many as
500 boats"
Disease is treated by incantations,
performed by medicine men or magi-
clans.
ct had the good fortune to be the
only white man ever permitted to I'M
dergo treatment at the hands of q
Bajao medicine man." said Mr.. Taylor.
There was so much beating of gongs
anG & many weird chants sung over
me that was unable to keep track Of
everything that went on, but If ! saw
the things I thought saw and felt the
things that ] am sure did feel, the
practitioners must have been nagicians
and not ordinary medicine men,"

Charged with laziness- guilty sim
ply of acidity! That's the situation
with many men today They realize
that they are not thenlselves--they're
conscious of a vague, tired feeling
that's always with them-they know
they have to pull themselves together
for each and every task--but they
can't tell what's the trouble. They're
branded as lazy and ambitionless
when the real truth is that they're
sick raen-victims of acidity.
Acidity, due to our unnatural eating
habits, irregular hours and other vio-
lations Of natures laws, causes acid
indigestion with gas, sournesS and
burning. Also; It sets UP fermenta-
ton and putrefaction in the intestinal
tract, which forms poisons that sap
our strength and vitality, irritate our
nerves, spoil our sleep and make us
weak, hstless and chemically tired.
To correct acidity a remarkable new
product has been developed by q 100
year-old pharmaceutical house in
Germany. It comes in the form of
small white tablets called Magnesla
Oxoids, which do not have to be
chewed but may be swallowed whole.
Magnesia Oxoids, upon contact with
the acid in the stomach, generate

the selection of furnishings If the
simple charm of the early American
fireside Is to be achieved.
The choice of the major furnish

from well-styled and authentic re-

1t rests with the accessories, how
ever, to achieve the final touch.
They must be consistent through
out, or the entire effect Of the

blue Willow-ware on the shelves,
hooked rugs, a banjo clock, a framed
sampler will all help to achieve an
interior of distinction.
