and desserts, bread. Eat any fruit
for dessert.
That's all you do. Fat seems to
melt away. The coarse lines Of
overweight give way to the refined
ones OF slenderness. You lose as
much as a pound a day. You feel
better than for years. For in this
treatment you achieve two impor-
tant results. The Jad Salts clear
your system OF toxins. The diet
takes off tat with food that turns
to energy instead of weight.
If you're tired Of being embar-
raised by fat, try his way. You'll be
glad that you did.
SNote particularly-the salts are
urged purely as a poison-banishing
agent-not as a reducing. The
change in food does the work. You
can get Jad Salts at any drug store.

When Great Seal Was Lost.

There is to be a new great seal Of
England. The design has to be altered
so as to exclude the Irish Free State.
The great seal Is made Of silver ano
weighs about II pounds. The reSpon-
sibility for its safety lies with the lord
chancellor. In the past lord chancel-
lors have spent many sleepless nights
because of this.
In the reign Of George III, for in
stance, the lord chancellor was IN the
habit of sleeping with the seal under
his pillow. It may have been uncom-
Portable, but at least it was safe. So
thought the lord chance llor, until his
house caught fire and he ran out and
buried it in the garden.
Perhaps his memory was bad, OF
maybe he was half asleep at the tirne,
Anyway, when the morning came, could
that unfortunate lord chancellor re-
member where he had buried the great
seal? He could not.

Court Accepts Recommendation.
In letter to Mr.. Laskey, Chief Jus
tice Wheat has expressed the courts
acceptance Of the recommendation as
follows: THE members of the court
have considered the report which you
sent us on December 10, and have ap-
proved in substance its recommenda-
tons. I say in substance because In

campaigning, he said, and Is getting out
posters for use in the Washington cam
paign. The magazine of the crganiza-
ton also would cooperate and would
send out photographers, it was explain
ed, to take pictures Of roadside signs In
the Washington area.
Grant Suggests Plan.
Referring to conditions in the City Of
Washington itself, Mr.. Smith said the
A. A. A. would contribute In every
possible way to put our own house in
order"
Col. Grant, who also addressed the
meeting, made an important suggestion
as to the next step Of the campaign in
the vicinity Of washington. He sug-
geSted that the American Civic ASsoci-
alton send to all garden clubs and other
interested organizations the report on
billboard conditions In the Washington
area prepared by MRS. w. L. LAwton,
chairman Of the National Council for
Protection Of Roadside Beauty. This Is
. detailed report enumerating the To-
cation and number Of billboards and
other unsightly roadside structures.
Each Of these clubs, he suggested,
should be asked to undertake the clean
ing up Of particular road or stretch
Of road IN It's territory. In that way
every one would be assigned Q job.
One Of the chief problems that Col
Grant stressed was the presence of
countless small advertising signs usually
found on private property. Those that
are there without authorization, he said,
could be determined by applying 10 the
property owners. ++
but there Is another situation be-
sides bil1boards which must be reme-
died hefore the Bieenten1iial celebra-
ton be warned. Small stands, sand
wich shops and filing stations viii
spring up along the roadsides when the
great mass of tourist travel starts"
These nuisances are Is unsightly as
billboards, Col. Grant said, and citi-
zens should cooperate In endeavoring
to keep as many Of them as possible on
the roads.
Mr.. Deiano cited Pennsylvania rs q
State which had recently cleaned up
approximately $4,000 Illegal signs. From
the viewpoint Of unemployment, too,
he suggested, joblesS men could be em-
ployed likewise to clean Up the road
side entrances 70 the National Capital.
This step already has been taken up
with State Road Commissions, he ex-
planned.
Already Begun Work.
Mrs. ChiIcott Of the Fairfax County
Garden Club aroused enthusiasm by
telling how the women in that county
have already begun to pull down Illegal
signs. She gave promised assurances
that conditions in the section would be
greatly improved before long. Mem
berS Of the other garden clubs. repre-
scented also agreed to take up the mat
ter. In urging them to do 50, Mrs.
NoyeS said she saw no reason why all
illegal signs miles outside of WASH
ington could not be taken down In this
manner before 1892 with the help Of
the State Highway Commissioners.
Owners Of property IN the immediate
filling station and btllboards and nu-
merous smaller signs have been erected
should be appealed to particularly, she
suggested.

chose the man, he pointed out, whereas
now the man seeks the ONCE.
Primary election returns show, he
said, that winners Of party primaries
are frequently nominated by from 8 to
z per cent Of the total eligible party
vote Of their constituency.
The Constitution of the United States,
the speaker explained, was framed by
men selected by the convention or
town meeting system"
Onicer Seeker Needs Wealth.
'It Is common knowledge" Mr..
Wood declared, that the primary Sys-
tenn is making it impossible for any
except the very rich man, or man who
has the backing of organized wealth in
one form or another to make cam
paign for nomination in Statewide
primaries"
Praising the effectiveness of the two
party system in the United States, the
speaker declared that the primary was
breaking down this responsible control.
Under the present system" he said,
"a candidate may be his own organiza-
| t1cn, his own platform his own policy
maker. Such q candidate need have
no regard for party organization or
party pledges. You cannot carry out
party platforms and party pledges I'M
less you have discipline. You cannot
have discipline unless you have a sys-
tenn which makes it possible for the
party machinery and the party organ
ization to compel men nominated on
its ticket to do what the party has
promised to do"
Best Man Rarely Wins.
Mr.. Wood mentioned no names in
his indictment Of the primary system.
but he believed the old-faShioned po-
litical boss whatever his shortcom-
ings, did not, as q rule, attempt to
foist upon the party men without char
acter and without mental equipment"
THE theory Of the advocates Of the
direct primary" Mr.. Wood said, was
that under its workings the best man
would win, but in too many instances
it turns out to be. only the best adver-
tiser, or the best supplied with cash.
Under its marvellous workings, any
form Of notoriety becomes a political
asset and the champion marathon
dancer or tree sitter may look hope
fully to political future If he does
not have taste for the talkies."

1850 EnumeratorS viii Make

for U. S. Committee.
by the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
With the same schedule, same in
duiries, same instructions as last April
4,500 enumerators will start a specia
unemployment census of 20 cities Jan
uary is.
The 1o-month change in the en-
ployment problem is to be gaugec
since an employment census was taker
last April.
Arthur Woods, chairman of the Pres
ident's Emergency Committee for En-
ployment, said today the census would
be rushed to completion. AS the count
proceeds, he said, figures will be rushed
to Washington for concurrent tabula-
ton, making totals available within a
short time after the field work is COM
pleted.
. Mid-February Report Hope.
He said Census Director Steuart was
hopeful the findings could be reported
by the middle of February, thus max
ing possible application of statistics to
conditions still current.
Steuart said the 20 cities, totaling
about 81 100000 population, represent
ed one-sixth of the entire population
and all major geographic divisions and
would give "a good idea Of the ma
tional trend"

and certain key industries, Detroit, for

House House Canvass.
AS in the April census. a house-to-
house canvass system will be followed.
To develop the extent to which people
have gone to cities looking for work,
one new question will be asked, Has
this person been in the city more than
four monthS?"
Steuart said an increase, both in
numbers unemployed and in duration
Of idleness, was expected from the jan
uary census.
The cities in which the census will be
taken are: Boston, the Manhat-
tan and Bronx Boroughs of New York,
Brooklyn, Buffalo, Philadelphia, Pitts
burgh, Dayton, Cleveland. Chicago,
Detroit, Duluth, Minneapolis, st. Louis,
Birmingham, New Orleans, Houston,
