RECORD SCATTERING FLIGHT

The aim and ambition of Aviator Wiley Post and his navigator Harold Gatty is to encrce the earth in 10 days and judging from the speed which they con- peted in their flight to Siberia and Nome, the daring airmen will undoubtedly win back to New York we'll within their time limit. They deserve to-.

21 CONGRESSIONAL VOTES FOR ALASKA

Alaska has vote in Congress but Los Angeles is willing to support the Territory with her 21 Congress ional votes.
 This is of the aftereects of the visitations to the Northland of the Los Angeles Chamber of Con- entirely of business men from the southern city.
 Los Angeles not only stands back of Alaska ready to assist in every constructive but is also willing to invest cash in developing Alaskan and en- terprises.
 This the gist of the message left during the visit last week of the Californian boosters. For years Alaska has been struggling along alone without getting tage of the kind offer from the Southland What those wonderfully energetic 1ve-wires" have accomplished for their State and cities, they likewise do for Alaska.

WINE
BILL DOOMED

Texan Would Prohibit Grape
Concentrates; Committee
Will Not Make Any Report

Congressional vets and drys
alike conceded today the attempt
by Sentaor Sheppard Cd Of
Texas to remove from the ma
tional prohibition act, section 90,
relied on by manufacturers of
fruit juices for the right to sell
to home wine makers. will fail in
the dying days of the present
Congress.
Rests in Committee
Sheppard introduced a bill elm
mating from section 20 the Ian
guage which has been construed
to exempt home wine makers
from the penalties prescribed for
violations of the VOlStead Act.
It was referred to the Judiciary
Committee, and there probably
1t will rest.
AS this Congress ends March
4, the bill must be re-introduced
in the new Congress.
Interpreted 1t FavOrabIy
Section % was interpreted by
Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt,
then Assistant United States At
torney General in charge of pro-
hibition enforcement, to permit
the manufacture of so-called
"non-intoxicating" beverages from
fruit juices and cider in the
home.
Mrs. Willebrandt resigned to
become the legal representative
here of the California grape in.
dustry. and the recent activity of
the industry in marketing grape
concentrates caused Senator Tyd-
1ngs CD of Maryland, a wet, to
attack the project in the Senate
as an evasion of the law. He
urged that the Joker" in the
Volstead act be removed.

wake UP YOUR
LIVER BILE
WITHOUT CALOMEL
And You'll Jump Out of Bed m
the Morning Karin to Go

n you feel sour and sunk and the world
looks punk, don't swallow a lot Of salts,
mineral water, oil, laxative candy or chewing
gum and expect them to make you suddenly
sweet and buoyant and full OF sunshine.
For they can't do it. They only move the
bowels and q mere movement doesn't get at
the cause. The reason for your down-and-out
feeling Is your liver. 1t should pour out two
pounds Of liquid bile into your bowels daily.
II this bile is not flowing freely, your food
doesn't digest. 1t just decays In the bowels.
Gas bloats up your stomach. You have .
thick, bad taste and your breath Is foul,
skin often breaks out In blemishes. Your head
aches and you feel down and out. Your whole
system Il poisoned.
It takes those good, old CARTER'S
LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two
pounds Of bile flowing freely and make you
teel up and up" They contain wonderful,
harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing
when it comes to making the bile how freely.
But don't ask for liver pills. Ask for Carter's
Little Liver Pills. Look for the name Carters
Little Liver Pills on the red label. Resent Q
