$4,000 DEMAND
SARCON DAILY
Vast Growing Army of
Sargon Users, Marching
Single File, Would Encir-
Gle Globe in Only Few
Years Time
by Richard l.. Simmsl

ATLANTA. Ga. More like a
tale from the Arabian Nights of
cid than q record of modern bus
mess achievement reads the story
of the marvellous growth and devel-
opment of Sargon the New Scien-
tific Compound which has become
the sensation of the drug trade
throughout the United States, Cam
ada and other countries.
The old Illustration of the peb-
bile dropped into the pool best des-
cribes the phenomenal and unpre-
cedented demand and its fame is
rapidly spreading over the entire
continent.
Recently compiled figures reveal
that approximately $4,000 men and
women are marching into drug
stores daily for Sargon and Sargon
Soft Mass Pills, the marvellous new
treatment that is restoring health
to countless thousands by new and
remarkable methods undreamed of
only a few years ago.
Already more than 100000 suf-
fering men and women have put it
lC lllt tcSl anu lidsc bOiO OeAiSi
millions what it has done for them.
Marching regulation U. S. army
fashion-single file this vast
army of Sargon users would reach
from New York to San Francisco
and at the present rate of sale
would, in a few years time, encir-
Gle the entire globe.
The only explanation Of Sargons
triumph in the Medical World is
Sargon's true worth. Back of its
triumph in the drug stores is its
triumph in the homes and it IS the
grateful endorsements of its mil
lions of users that has made it the
most widely talked Of medicine in
the world today.
Sargon is extensively advertised,
It is true, but no preparation, no
matter how extensively advertised,
could possibly meet with such
phenomenal success unless it pos
sesSed absolute merit and extra
ordinary powers as a medicine.
There can be but one possible
explanation for Sargon's amazing
success and it can be told in one

RECORDS MADE
AT MEETING OF
LOCAL R0TARIANS

No records were broken at yes
terday's meeting of the Ell Centre
Rotary club, but several were made
in the course of clever and unique
program presented by Warren Cur
rier, chairman of the day.
A staunch alumnus of Dartmouth,
who with lone ally has had to bat
tie his way in the club through
squads of Trojans Bears. Wolver-
ines, Badgers, and wnaJ have you,
Currier rallied to his alma mater
yesterday by presenting two splen-
did records of Dartmouth songs,
made by the Dartmouth glee club
of which he is an ex-member.
The records were played on the
Victor combination full combination
recording machine and were follow
ed by technical talk on recording
by Milton Cross.
Rotarians were then given an op-
portunity to see what they could
do about making records, a number
being selected to make short speech
es which were recorded by the VIC
tor and reproduced to the enjoy
ment of the audience.
w. F. WaSner. Southern Pacific
representative for, the Sherwin Will
liams Paint company. who gave an
entertaining technical talk on paint
and its uses.

CONTINUED from Page y

minority S tat e m ent, declaring
against the research department in
the board of equalization. against
continuing the separation of sources,
and in favor of state personal in
come tax
Although the report was for con-
tinuance Of the separation of sour
ees, it recommended that the legis-
lature be empowered to make such
further classifications and sub
classifications of utility groups tax
able upon their gross receipts tor
state purposes as may be necessary
in order to achieve more equitable
distribution of the tax burden
The board of equalization should
extend its studies under the research
department in respect to the aver
age tax burden on common proper
ty and the tax burden on utilities,
so that comparison of the burden
may be otained, the report declared.
Also, according to the report. the
research department should particu-
larly give consideration to devising
ways and means of relieving the
present excessive tax burden borne
by homes, farms and all other real
estate taxed locally" including:
l. Proper tax limitation methods.
2. Transference to the state OF
certain general governmental tunc-
tions now performed locally.
3. Determination of proper
sources of new revenue.
4. Correction of certain abuses
connected with special assessments.
Another forward looking recon-
mendation made by the committee
was that the board of supervisors
of county be empowered to review
and raise budgets of school districts
This is a definite attempt to cut
down on cost of education. which
has mounted SO rapidly because OF
complete freedom granted school
trustees in expending funds, in opin-
ion Of many officials.
Amendment of the per cent net
income tax on banks and corpora
tions so that oil companies will pay
more tax was approved by the COM
mittee, as represented by bill in
troduced in the legislature during
the past week.
TIL 4 per cent tax on banks is "un-
satisfactory the report said, because
of the meagre revenue received from
this source, but declared that the
present method must be continued
until congress liberalizes provisions
Of the federal law covering such
taxation.

FOUND
DEAD in CANAL
NEAR YUMA Line

Apparently the victim OF an accl-
dental drowning. an unidentified
dead man was found on the Fort
Yuma Indian reservation early
this morning.
The only mark of identification
that could be found on the dead
man was a service button that in
dicated his membership in the
American Legion. He is thought to
have been recently released from
the veterans hospital at Prescott.
Coroner A. R. Underwood and
undersheriff Rodney Clarke investi-
gated the report of the mans death
made by Bill Quick at the Yuma
quarantine station.
The mans watch had stopped at
7 o'clock. Coroner Underwood this
afternoon expressed the opinion
that it had stopped at 7 O'Clock this
morning and not last night. He
drew this conclusion from the state
of the body.
The body was found in a canal
running through the reservation. On
a bank of the canal were a coat
one shoe and cap. All We're wet,
seeming to indicate that the man
had fallen into the canal once,
climbed out, and fallen in again.
He had been seen at about 3
O'Clock yesterday afternoon sitting
on the railing of bridge over the
cia::;al. Those who saw him stated
that he seemed highly intoxicated.
No papers were found on the body
which might identify the man. He
was well dressed in a blue suit. The
Legion post in Yuma will
make efforts to identify the man.

Disposition of the default judg-
ment entered by Attorney Don C.
Bitter for William Caine Davidson
in his million dollar damage suit
against San Francisco city and coun-
ty officials was expected in Judge
Vaughn Thompson's department OF
the superior court today.
The amount of judgment to be
granted Davidson may be decided
following the hearing this after
noon.
Attorneys for II. I. Mulcrevy. San
Francisco county clerk; Thomas
Finn, former San Francisco sheriff
L. w. Helscher, cashier of the Lib
erty Bank of San Francisco, are III
FL Centro to attend the hearing.
What evidence, if any, may be
presented this afternoon remains
a matter of conjecture. Since judg-
ment was entered by default the
hearing is not expected to take on
the aspects of trial
When the case was continued from
last Friday until today Ross I.
Hickcox, who represented the de-
PENDANTS in the absence OF their own
attorneys, made a statement declar-
ing that the defendants have right
to hearing on their demurrer to
the complaint.
Davidson is suing the San Fran
cisco officials for alleged false i'm
priSonment. He was imprisoned for
five years in San Quentin after en-
tering plea of guilty to a charge
of forgery. In his complaint Da-
wilson contended that, even should
he have been guilty of forgery. the
offense was outlawed. He was in
duced to enter a plea of guilty, he
said, on promises of leniency.
