 A prohibition agent, be he ever so gentlemanly, never fs and never can be accepted. When Woodcoclz a year ago planned to establish quarters in Leonardtown with 10 agents and a clerk, no one would rent them office space. The project was abandoned. Later when the chief of the St Mary's agents brought his family and vanload of furniture to LeonArdtown, not one of the towns 500 citizens would rent him a house. He had to store his furniture. 1t was long time before he found living quarters.

Stubborn Coughs
 Ended by Recipe,
 Mixed at Home

Here is the famous old recipe which millions of housewives have found to be the most dependable means of break ing up stubborn coughs due to colds. 1t takes but moment to. prepare, costs little, and saves money, but 1t gives real relief even for those dreaded coughs that follow severe cold epidemics.
 From any druggist, get 21s ounces of Pinex, pour it into pint bottle and nu the bottle with plain granulated sugar syrup or strained honey. Thus you make a full pint of better remedy than you could buy ready.made for three times the cost. It never spells and tastes 90 good that even children like 1t.
 Not only does this simple mixture soothe the infinmed throat membranes with surprising ease, but also it is ab- sorbcd into the blood, and acts directly upon the bronchial tubes, thus aiding the whole system in throwing oil the cough. It loosens the germ-ladcn phlegm and eases chest soreness in a way that is really astonishing.
 Pinex is a highly concentrated com pound of Norway Pine, containing the active agent of creosote, in a refined, palatable form. Nothing known in medicine is more helpful in cases of severe coughs and bronchial irritations.
 Do not accept substitute for Pinex: It is guaranteed to give prompt relief or money refunded.

the Irish nation. We have to meet force by force. That is why the I. R. A. will not surrender its arms"
 The communist groups which have filtered into its ranks, and which like the army are now out lawed, have had a mushroom growth in the last year. The main one, Saor Fire (Free Ireland), Is just a year old. Others are the Cumann No Milan (women's league), the Irish labor defense league, the workers revolutionary party and the friends of Soviet Russia.
 Ramon de Valera is as bitterly opposed to the methods of these extremists as is President Co.'S grave.
 Despite the army's claims, 1t is extremely doubtful that most Irish men could be persuaded to take up arms for freedom again.
 De Valera still wants to turn Ire- land into a republic, but by peace- able persuasion instead of force. De Valera claims the land annui- ties which Irish farmers are pay ing Britain should be repudiated. Tn his view, the debt was cancelled by the 1921 agreement with Great Britain.
 The republican leader also con- tends terrorism and communism would disappear if the extremists who refuse to take the allegiance oath could be represented in par iiament.
 These arguments bear weight among the dissatisfied clements in the country, especially among the farmers who have been hit this year by a tremendous drop in their sales to Britain and who are hav- ing hard time paying their land annuities.
 Growing unemployment is an- other problem. with which Cos graves government must cope Not only has emigration to the United States practically stopped but many Irish-Americans are re- turning to the old country. Thou ] sands are idle.

BANK OF FRANCE SHOW GOLD LOSS
 FOR THIS WEEK
Breaks Long Record of In- cfeases in Gold Supply
 Loss Was Very Small One
By RALPH HErNzEN

4 (United Press Stan Correspondent)
 Paris, Nov 19.--(UP)-The Bank of France to-day reported . loss of gold of 2eS,s60 francs CLOSED, breaking the long record of in- creases every week for many months.
 The weekly statement showed a total of $67,58O.324,767 francs $2,642,367,4S7), against the record of 67.5SO, 100000 francs ($2,642,- 378,00O reported in the previous week.
 The reduction this week was ac- counted for by exports of gold to Holland and Switzerland.
 Simultaneously the outstanding paper in circulation was reduced, leaving the proportion of gold against paper at 59.S6 per cent. against 59.82 per cent a week ago.
 The Bank of France also re- ported arrival of 10 ingots of gold from French Equatorial Africa, the first shipment of metal from that colony and the first actually produced on paying basis in the 6 ACACh SVAOhA4A VAAPAA
 The gold was obtained from the sand and quarts at Oubangui-Chari where the sands are said to have a proportion of four to six grams of refined gold to the cubic meter
 Equipment has already been in- stalled for placer mining. but 20 other plants will be in operation in 1884. giving a total daily capacity of 4,000 cubic meters of sand with a possible daily production of 16,. 900 to 10000 grams of gold.
 The richest mine now in opera. tion is at Rouendzi, 50 miles from Bambari, which produces 50( pounds of gold annually. Other mines are being exploited in the Mari and Nyanga basins.

 The same tactics were employed rnsuccessfully against President Hoover at the 1928 republican na- ton in Kansas City. Half a dozen favorite sons were opposed to the Hoover candidacy but they could not block 1t.

business men have been too busy planning for the future of the newly-born free state to think of the hostility of the past. But in the lonely country districts the old grudge against England remains.
 Memories are still fresh of the time when soldiers terrorized the countrywide, when nobles and peas. ants burned each others houses when hundreds of men were dragged from their beds at night and shot, and when cabinet minis ters sat with a brace of revolvers on their desks.
 It was to guard against a repe- tition of this that the government passed the drastic emergency measure now in force.
 The Irish republican army which has determinedly refused to recognize the peace treaty setting up the Irish Free State, is a chief worry.
 It is the republican army and the communists which President Cosgrave charges with the recent wave of violence and political rnur- ders which brought the public safety act and put the whole coun- try under martial law.
 The army's leaders, some oi them young, college-educated men have only one answer to the charges,
 "They are not murders" one in- terviewer was told. "They are acts of war. You must remember this |-the Irish republican army is still at war with Great Britain.
 We regard the Free State min isters as merely the agents of Brit ain. We shall not lay down our arms until we have achieved the object Irishmen have been fighting for these many years--a complete. ly independent republic for all Ire. land.

YOUR TAXES ARE GOING UP SAID
 REPUBLICANS

Washington, Nov. 19.-(UP).- Administration officials to-day aimed their tax plans at an in- crease to produce more than one billion dollars in order to balance the budget.
 The deficit is expected to amount to $1,500.00 00,000 by the close of the fiscal year.
 Increases modelled after the 1924 revenue act, with increased rates for smaller or normal" in- comes, will be recommended. The plan would include taxes on ''semi- luxuries" such as radios and auto mobiles While the plan is of an emergency nature, 1t was said, the treasury hopes to make 1t compre- hensive and flexible.
 Assurances that senate adminis- tration leaders would give prompt consideration of tax increase bill when 1t is sent over by the house has been given by Majority Leader Watson, Indiana to Representative Garner, democrat, Texas, prospec- tive house speaker. This offer of cooperation was made in confer ence last night between the two leaders.
 Watsor's purpose, 1t was under stood, was to enlist Garner and house democrats in the administra- tion's plan for tax increase. The treasury's attitude, as re- | ported by the United Press three days ago. is at wide variance with the plan to be proposed by Rep-
 resentative Bacharach, New Jersey, l and administration fiscal expert. He is drafting measure to be sub-
 mitted to the ways and means committee next month.
 | Bachrach plans no increase for the small taxpayer who now pays
 1 1-2 per cent on the first $4,000 of taxable income, per cent on the
 next $4,000, and per cent there-
 after. The 1924 rates would in- crease these to 2, 4 and per cent. .At present single persons are al-
 lowed $1 500 exemption and mar
 ried couples $4,500. The 1924 act ] would allow only $1,000 and $2,500.
