Don't Go to Extremes
To End Constipation

When bad breath, or a coated
tongue, biliousness, or headaches
warn of constipation, don't take
violent purgativeS. There's no
use when a candy CaScaret will
stop the trouble in a jiffy; will
cleanse your system pleasantly,
and completely.
The relief you get so promptly
from Cascarets is lasting. Casca-
rets are made from caScara, a
substance which medical authori-

AS AID TO WHEAT
Hoover informs Capper Price
Difficulty Is Due to "ParaIy-
sis of Export Market"

BY the Associated Press.
TOPEKA. Kans, July 1S.-President
Hoover today informed Senator Arthur
Capper, Kansas, Republican. that he
believed considerable part OF price
difficulties suffered by Kansas wheat
farmers is due to the present paralysis
of the export market"
The President expressed confidence a
major problem in this connection had
been solved by the war debt holiday. Il
am confident that We will bring about
a solution of the remaining difficulties, "
Mr.. Hoover said.
Western Kansas wheat has sold as
low as "a cents a bushel since the 1881
harvest started several weeks ago.
Hoover Qualified to Judge.
Senator Capper commenting on Presi-
dent Hoover's telegram, said: president
Hoover is better qualified than any one
else in the country to judge the eff
feet of the success of his plan to aid
Germany by the postponement of rep
arations payments. The President re-
CARDS this as the key to the worldwide
depression deadlock.
His assurance that the moratorium
will start the revival of business In
Europe. and that this will be reflected
over the world. especially in an increase
in the consumptive demand for Amegi-
can farm products, through the revival
of industry both in Europe and in this
country, is the most hopeful develop
ment in many months
Text of Hoover's Telegram.
Senator Capper made public the fol-
lowing text CT Mr.. Hoover's telegra n:
You are entirely correct in your con-
clusion that considerable part of the
price difficulties of Kansas wheat farm
ers is due to the present paralysis of
the export market arising from the
economic crisis in Central Europe,
which naturally affects not only them
but all countries importing our wheat.
The major problem in this connec-
ton has been solved by the aid given to
Germany in postponement of repara-
tons and to other governments in post
ponement of debts and l am confident
that we will bring about solution to
the remaining difficulties.

Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt Of New

He advocated the establishment
throughout the country of centers
where "convalescent serum" may be
available and of easy access to regis

mented on what he said was a lack OF
knowledge among members of the med

Infantile paralysis is more general,
more widespread and more devastating
than is generally appreciated by the
lay public at large or the medical pro-
fession, the Governor said.
