Cost IS Cents To Put
Rheumatic Cripple
Back To Work Again
Now JOyOusly Happy

While all his family looked on in
aAonishment and all his friends
were amazed, one man took the
pain, swelling and agony from his
tortured Joints in 4S hours and did
it with that famous rheumatic pre-
scription known to pharmacists as
Allenru.
This powerful yet safe remedy is
wonderful-its action is almost mag.
ical where uric acid and other cir
culating poisons cause agony and
pain-the excess uric acid poison
starts to leave your body in "a
hours.
Just get one So cent bottle of Allenru
from Peoples Drug Stores, Inc, or
any live druggist-take it as directed
and if in As hours your pains haven't
left you get your money back.
1t works just as swiftly with Neu-
ritis, Sciatica, Lumbago and Neuralgia
due to similar cause.

M'FADDEN SEES
j. 8. RECOVER
HUGE SUMS

Investigation by Attorney Gen.
eral Cummings of income tax
evasionS may result in the re-
covery of hundreds of millions
of dollars, Representative Nc.
Fadden (R) of Pennsylvania de-
cleared today as the Department
OF Justice moved to study the
tax payments of financiers and
financial house of Wall Street.
Charges similar to those made
against Former Secretary of the
Treasury Andrew w. Mellon and
his associates have been lodged
with the Department of Justice,
McFadden declared.
Only the Beginning
The Pennsylvania Representa-,
tive asserted:
The charges concerning Mel
Ion income tax returns are
only the first of many to be
submitted to the Department
Of Jusice. There is the pos
Sibility of the recovery of hun
dreds of millions of income
taxes which have been evaded
during the MeIlOn-MillS admin
tstratiOn Of the Treasury"
The information upon which
the charges will be based comes
from former employees Of the BU
reau of Internal Revenue and
former employees of accounting
firms which have handled the in
come tax accounts of many big
taxpayers.
McFadden, Cummings Confer
Among those expected to supply
information is David H. Olson
former employe of a large &C
counting firm, whose charge fur
niShed the basis of the inquiry
instituted against former Secre
tary Mellon.
Soon after Representative Nc
Fadden read Olson's letter on the
floor of the House and urged a
Justice Department inquiry, Off
cial announcement was made BY
the Attorney General that the
charge would be sifted.
McFadden had consulted the
Justice Department before he
made his speech, and thus was as
sured of action.
The alleged evaSions of income
taxes for the most part embrace
cases similar to that for which
Charles E. Mitchell, former chair
man of the National City Bank OF
New York, is on trial.

Mayor Puts Ban
On Nude Dance
AT World Fair

Chicago-Dancing in the nude
at various shows at the Oriental
Village and other places along the
midway at the Worlds Fair was
halted by the various concession
aires because of an edict by Mayor
Edward ]. Kelly, who visited the
fair the other night and saw a
''lady Godiva" ride a camel and a
woman dancing without clothing.
The Mayor warned the conces-
sionaires they'd have to tone down
the performances and as a result
crowds that flocked into the fair
grounds saw a fan dancr dance
in trunks and a brassiere instead
of just fans. One show, in the
"Slums of Cairo" was closed by a
policeman after an investigator had
watched a performance of ae fe-
male impersonator.
The Mayors move was praised
by Rufus C. Dawes, president of
the fair, who said: 1--WE welcome
this help and cooperation on the
part of the duly constituted Of
ficials, whose duty it is to see that
the laws are enforced. There is
certainly a limit to these dances
and exhibitions and I believe that
the limit has been passed."

In the Realm Of

Will Rogers apparently let the
cat out of the bag the other night.
In the last of his series Of seven
broadcasts, in which he never pre-
pared his script and just went on
talking, saying whatever he felt
like, he made mention that Ar
thur Brisbane, famous Hearst edi-
tor, will be heard on the program
that has been featuring the cow
boy philosopher.
1t may be that it just slipped
out. The situation is that the
National Broadcasting Company
announces, as per another of
Wills predictions, that Fred Stone
will be on the air next week in
place of Will Rogers, making no
mention whatever of what will
happen the following week.
Will Rogers paid high tribute
to Brisbane as the best columnist
in the world and said he knows
the news before it happens"
