PAY PLAN
|NDORSED

The controversy over the rela.
tive merits of paying Federal sal.
aries by cash or by check is UP
again today. with Walter O.
Woods, U. s. Treasurer, uging
that the check system be dropped
for all departments, with sal.
aries being paid in cash.
Mr.. Woods, in recommending
the cash.payment plan to Assis-
tant Secretary Of the Treasury
Ogden Mills, said the Govern
ment employees wanted to be
paid in cash; that it would result
in economy and less bookkeeping,
and be better all around. He re-
minded that salary checks must
be prepared with great exactness
with much scrutiny and book
work, and that the employees
often have trouble in cashing
them.
Comptroller General J. r. Nc.
Carl is strong for the check sys-
tenn. He says sending large
amounts of cash between Govern
ment departments would be dan
gerous, and that irregularities
would develop in disbursing Of
fices. He also says the Treasury
Department has no authority to
change the present check sys-
tenn.

TOMB is FOUND
Rivals That OF King Tut in
Beauty and Interest.
By United Press

By United Press
CAIRO, Jan. 26.-An ancient
Egyptian tomb said to rival that
Of King Tut-Ankh-Amen in beauty
and interest has been found by Pro-
lessor Selim Hassan, famous Egyp-
tian archelogist, according to re-
ports received here.
The tomb was found in the in
closure of Ra-Wer, one Of the most

intact,
It consisted of two chambers, one
containing the queens sarcophagus
Surmounted by gold crown set
with precious stones, and the other
holding furniture, gold toilet requi-
sites and alabaSter Statuettes.
Experts believe the tomb belonged
to the mother of Mersa- Ankh, whose
mummy Professor Hassan discov-
cred in the same Enclosure last year.
Mersa-Ankh was known as the
favorite of Ra-Wer. His tomb was
discovered last year. In it were

ALEC B. FRANCIS
FINDS QUICKEST WAY
TO END A BAD COLD

In making talking pictures, Alec
B. Francis no longer breads to face
the sensitive microphone. Like
scores of other Hollywood stars and
hundreds of indianapolis people, he
has found how easily one can get
rid Of a cold or cough through quick
use Of Ayers Cherry Pectoral.
Mr.. Francis has played leading
character roles in many of the
greatest sound productions. Recent
ly he contracted severe chest cold
which worried him considerably. His
voice was hoarse and there was al
ways the danger of coughing or
sneezing while the sound film was
being recorded.
"a pleasant spoonful Of Ayers
Cherry Pectoral," he says, brought
almost immediate relief. Coughing
and sneezing stopped and my
hoarseness cleared up. That night
slep comfortably without cough.
ing, and in just day or so, the
cold was completely gone"
In indianapolis homes, as in Hol-
lywood. Ayers Cherry Pectoral is
the first thought for colds. Ayers
Pectoral Is superior to salves. liouids.
etc., which cause one to perspire
freely. These remedies give tenn
porary relief but opea up the pores
and thus risk pneumonia. MANY
Doctors a3a Druggists strongly advise
open up the pores u can be taken
with absolute safety--even II one has
to be outdoors.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1931-01-26

Robert Montgomery is still an
other of the scores Of Hollywood
stars who have taken the advice
Of physicians and found how quick
ly colds disappear after a few pleas
ant doses Of Ayers Pectoral. For in
Hollywood this hospital certified
remedy has become the standard
treatment for colds.
Robert Montgomery, for example,
contracted a severe cold. Then he
started taking a spoonful of Ayers
Cherry Pectoral every Is minutes so
that his cold would be relieved in
time to resume work at the studio
next day.
1.-THE quick relief from Ayers Pee
toral was certainly remarkable, .
says Mr.. Montgomery. Almost i'm
mediately my cold began to disap-
pear. By night, was a great deal
better and the next morning I awoke
with the welcome freedom from con-
gestion. In day or so the cold
was completely gone and I was able
to resume work"

Betty Con1pson ReIieUes
Bad Cold in FeuD Hours

Those who heard Betty Comp
sons marvellous voice in recent
sound picture, little realized her
fear that hoarseness would ruin
the recording. Yet, my cold was
terrible" says Miss Conpson. Il
am certainly grateful to the doc
tor who advised Ayers Pectoral.
Just few tempting tastes eased
my throat, clearing up my hoarse-
ness. In a day or so all trace Of
the cold had disappeared"
In indianapolis homes, as in Hol-
lywood, Ayers Cherry Pectoral is
the first thought for colds. Ayers
Pectoral is safer than remedies
which cause one to perspire freely.
They are dangerous to use unless
one stays In bed. Leading druggists,
like many doctors, advise Ayers
Pectoral because it does not cause
sweating. 1t can be used with alb
solute safety-evenr if one has to
be out of doors.

Scientists Deny TrumpetS
Caused Jericho Walls
to ToppIe.

By United Press
DARTS, Tan. 26.-The staid
l. French Academy of Sciences
has decided Victor Hugo's rather
fantastic story Of how the famed
walls of Jericho crum'bled under
the resonance of seven days of
trumpeting is not in keeping with
science.
without denying the Joshua
army trumpeted as loud as its
lungs permitted, the academy
doubts If tone can crurnble a
stone wall.
The academy also decided to
send French scientists with Pro-
lessor Carstang of the University
of Liverpool, in final effort to
fix definitely the date Of the fall
of Jericho and the entry Of the
Jewish army into Palestine.
Professor Carstarlg has found
indications in the ruins Of Jer1-
cho that the walls of the town
were built eighteen centuries be-
fore the Christian era. He fixes
the fall Of Jericho at about 14o0
3. G.
The Bible devotes- many chap
tiers to the once hourisning city
on the Jordan, its riches, dates,
honey, grapes, balsam and roses.
The capture Of Jericho by the
Israelites OH their first entry into
Canaan, its destruction, Joshua's
curse on the rebuilder, and its
fourishing again all are told in
the Bible.

At last science has discovered a new
way to charge batteries with surpris-
ing power instantly. A magic new
mixture gives batteries more power
and pep. No more fuss and bother of
changing batteries or having them re-
charged. No more costly batteries to
buy. No more wrestling with the
crank, in the blazing sun, pouring rain
or freezing snow. No more danger of
breaking an arm with a back firing
motor. This startling discovery takes
the last vestige Of uncertainty out of mo-
toring and ends 90B of all battery troubles.
