The secret of keeping young is to
feel young-to do this you must
watch your liver and bowels-there's
no need of having a sallow COM
plexion-dark rings under your eyes
-pimples-a bilious look in your
face-dull eyes with no sparkle.
Your doctor will tell you ninety per
cent of all sickness comes from in
active bowels and liver.

sician in Ohio, perfected a vegetable
compound as a substitute for CAL

years.

They help bring about that natural

Bob Burman's Daughter Dares
Death With Bad Luck Symbols
Girl Speed Wizard Wears
Opal Ring and Fathers
Old Mineral, T.
BY DONNA FISHER
Times staff Writer

NEW YORK, Jan. 3I.-F1orence
Burman, %, wears an opal ring, the
symbol of bad luck, and insists upon
her fathers old numeral a." when
she sets forth TO establish an auto
mobile speed record or win an out
board motor race.
This daughter of wild Bob
Burman. celebrated auto racer of
twenty years ago, who appeared in
several Indianapolis Speedway
races, and who sacrificed his life on
a California race course to the god
of speed, believes, she said today,
that she can scare off death by her
ill-luck tokens.
That is" Florence qualified
thoughtfully, maybe I can hold
him off little until I accomplish
the things I wish to do
Synonym of Death
But any one is fool she
added succinctly, who does not adj
NIT that speed and death are sy-
nonymous."
Florence Burman ought to know.
Three times this winsome girl,
who now holds the cupboard mo-
torboat record for women with a
speed of 48867 miles an hour, and
who has captured automobile road
records in her home state of Mich
igan, has witnessed the toll speed
has taken within the ranks Of her
immediate family.
She was when her fathers
white racer mo. Y roared down the
Corona course in the ninety-seventh
lap of the race, throwing a wheel
and overturning. Burman was killed
with two others, and six were in
jured.
Uncle Killed in Race
The shock of her fathers death
had not quite subsidized when her
fathers brother, Earl Burman, was
killed in a similar accident on the
track at Jackson, Mich.
1t was then Florence began to
wear her opal,
L had nagged Uncle Earl for
months" Florence related, Ito let
me ride with him in a race. Tired
of my pleas, he finally gave in and
said if I would meet him in jackson

so CENTS MORE
DAILY FOR ALL
WORLD CURE
Demand for Commodities
Would End Depression,
Is Claim.

BV ScriBps-Hoic0rd NcrspGpcr alliance
WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-If the
two billion inhabitants of the earth
merely had so cents apiece more a
day to spend, the depression would
be over.
Fifty cents a day more, per per-
son would create such a demand for
commodities that farms and facto-
ries the world over would have to
work overtime, and even then they
could not keep up with orders.
So British Consul General Camp
bell told an audience in New York.
Technocrats talk in figures. Here,
then, is another combination of
digits proving that Mr. Campbell's
plan would revolutionize the
world and bring on Elysium no less
surely than Technocracy.
There are in the world approx
mately 2,OOOOOO,OOO people. Half a
dollar a day per capita would mean
one billion dollars more per day to
spend, or S365, 600, 100000 per year,
new money.
L. S. Would Get Big Share
Of this. the share of the people
of the United States would be a
little over S6,O0O,000 a day, or $22,-
900 100000 additional trade turnover
every twelve months in this country
alone.
But the 10000 United States
manufacturing plants listed in the
1929 census, only turned out $70,-
000000,000 worth of products, and
1929 was this country's banner year.
Similarly, our 100000 farms
raised $12,0O0OOO,0OO worth of COM
modities that year. and our mines
brought forth $6,0OO,0O0 900 worth of
minerals.
Farm, factory and mine, therefore,
crossed $88 900 100000 for their COM
bined output, or far less than half
the turnover the extra so cents a
Gay would mean to Americans.
Fantastic Figures Cited
The figures for Great Britain,
Germany France, Italy and other
leading producing nations reveal
equally fantastic perspective. And
yet, with them as with America,
only domestic consumption is taken
into account. Our export business
also would show colossal growth
In Asia, alone, there are a bill

market worth S500,O00000 a day,
or ,O0O,OO0,0OO year, woul;
spring into being. Of this, a no
mean portion would go to buy
American and other exports.
All Nations Would Profit
In 1929, of the total world exports,
America supplied nearly 16 per
cent. If the Asiatics spent only
one-f1fth of their new income of
so cents a day on foreign goods, our
share of their trade would amount
to $6,000,0O0000 a year, or far more
than all our exports to all the ma
tons of the world combined
amounted to in the best year in
our history.
