Go Quick
All Pile Misery Ended without Cut
ting or Salves.

Thousands of sufferers from piles
have learned that quick and permanent
relief can only be accomplished with
an internal medicine. Neither salves
nor suppositories remove the cause.
Bad circulation of the blood in the
lower bowel causes piles. The veins
are flabby, the bowel walls weak-the
parts almost dead. To end Piles an
internal medicine must be used to
stimulate the circulation, heal and re-
store the affected parts. .........
DR.. J. S. Leonhardt was the first to
discover a real internal Pile remedy.
He called his prescription HEM -ROID,
and prescribed it for 1000 patients
with the marvellous record of success
in 960 cases, and then decided every
Pile sufferer should be able to get
HEM -ROID tablets from their own
druggist with rigid money back
guarantee.
DR.. Leonhardt's prescription has a
wonderful record of success right in
this city and Hooks Drug Stores in
vite every Pile sufferer to try a bottle
of HEM ROID and guarantee to re-
fund the purchase price if they do not
end Piles in any form.-Advertisemen

PLANS DRAFTED
FOR ABANDONING
53 ARMY POSTS
Forts Are Designated by
General Staff After Sur
vey Ordered by Hoover.

By United Press
WASHINGTON, May 21.--Aban-
donment Of flfty-three army posts,
valued at S22, ,000, 900. is contem-
plated by the war department, 1t
was announced Wednesday night.
The posts we're designated by the
general staff after a survey ordered
by the President.
Their abandonment, General Doug
las Macarthur, chief of staff, said,
will contribute to military eff
cheney as we'll as economy. Only
thirteen of them now are gar
risoned.
Others may be added to the list,
Macarthur said.
Drop Important Posts
Some of the more important posts
proposed for abandonment are:
TT. Eustis, Va; Ft. Brown, Browns
vile, Tex; TT. Hunt, Va; Camp
Harry j. Jones, Ariz.; FIT. Lincoln,
N. D.; Camp Stephen D. Little,
Ariz.; Miller Field, N. Y; FIT. Mis-
soula, Mont; TT. D. A. Russell, Tex,
and Chanute Field, Ill.
Abandonment of these ten posts
alone would involve removal of
nearly 5000 officers and enlisted
men.
Consolidation of army stations
long has been desired by the general
staff, but political considerations
have prevented it heretofore. Even
now flood of protests from various
interests is looked for.
Other Economies Planned
Further army economies to assist
President Hoover in his attempt to
cut governmental expenses $50, ,000,-
900 involve abandonment of harbor
defense forts through new method
of mobile railroad guns and bomb
ing planes, instead Of the old style
stationary cannon.
The war department. proposes to
sell some of the posts it is abandon
ing. Others may be put to non
military government use.
The following posts, unoccupied
except for caretakers, will be dis
posed of entirely:

action in curtailing the 1928-29 pro-
grams continued to affect provisions for
new construction, which were about

commented that the provision of the
London naval treaty relating to earlier
scrapping of capital ships had been the
main factor in saving 100000 on the
cost of personnel
AS consequence of the naval treaty
five capital ships are being removed
from the effective list. The Benbow
already is on the disposal list. The
Emperor of India is being paid of. The
Marlborough will be withdrawn from

GOVERNOR SEEKS
ECONOMIC PACT
Woodring and Other Mid-Con-
tinent Executives to Urge
Legislative Parity.
BY the Associated Press.

~ tLG ASSOCidteu HIeSS,
TOPEKA, Kans April 18. - Gov.
Harry H. Woodring of Kansas today
called q conference of governors of nine
States In the mid-continent area for
consideration Of his proposal for estab-
liShment Of an economic compact, de-
signed to obtain parity with other sec
tons in national legislation.
Invitations to the conference, to be
held in Wichita, Kans., May 10, were
sent to executives of Colorado, Missouri,
Oklahoma, Arkansas, Nebraska, Wyo-
ming, Texas and New Mexico.
The economic problems in the nine
mid-continent States" Gov. Woodring
said in letters addressed to the other
governors, ARE crying for solution"
Would Establish Parity.
'It is evident that sooner or later
the States interested in the success of
agriculture and those interested in the
preservation of the oil industry must
form an economic compact which has
for its purpose the establishment of a
parity with other sections in the matter
of national legislation affecting their
economic welfare"
"It cannot be denied that the bene-
fits Of Federal laws since the World
War have accrued to the East through
the political SuDSldlzlng OF industry,
and that this sectional legislation has
been detrimental to the agricultural
West and South. This sectionalism is
resulting in serious crisis in our great
base neutrality-suspicious. and OIL"
Gov. Woodring pointed out the pro-
posed Wichita conference would pre-
cede the annual conference of COVER
nors to be held at French Lick Springs,
Ind. In June.
The advantage of full discussion
of the economic plight Of agriculture
and oil In the mid-continental area be-
fore the conference at French Lick
Springs is obvious" he said.
Applying his formal announcement,
the Governor said he believed the pro-
posed compact should be in the interest
of not only agriculture and the oil in
dustry, but all natural resources, in
Guiding coal, salt and other minerals.

Romance Crowded Into Back
ground by Business at
Aircraft Show.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DETROIT, April 18.-Romance, once
aviations theme song, has been crowded
into the background by business.
Behind the color and dazzle of the
1881 National Aircraft Show, closing an
eight-day run tomorrow as the opening
gun of a Nationwide sales program,
business was in the atmosphere.
From manufacturers reports, 1t was
estimated that between $50 and 800
planes were ordered or contracted for
since the opening OF the show.
zoo Sales Claimed.
The effort to appeal to the private
purchaser was emphasized in the num-
Der of small planes displayed, with the
result that one maker of midget planes
claimed sales of more than 200 of his
craft.
Actual sales on the floor to flyers
and in form of dealers contracts" said
Ray Cooper, general manager of the
show, were greater than ever before.
Formerly many makers made sales be-
fore show time and announced them
during the exposition.
Such was not the case this year.
Too Busy to Complain.
"In other years exhibitors had so
much time on their hands that COM
plants on how the show was being run
was their major outlet. This year, it
seems to me, they have been too busy
getting business to bother with any,
thing else"
Part Of the concentration on business
principles was marked by the show it
self in that 1t is the years only major
aircraft exposition. Next year the
trend will be even more pronounced by
recommendation of the Show Committee
of the Aeronautical Chamber of Com
merce to hold a single show early in
February.
A single show early in the year, the
committee said, will give the exposition
greater number of new models and
lengthen the selling season.
Next years show will lie between
three cities-Detroit, Kansas City and
Indianapolis-with each given so days
in which to submit proposals.
