Some citizens are beginning to express alarm at new expenditures and bond issues planned by the government. This is nat ura Or it would be natural in normal times. But the fact that has 10 be kept in mind by everybody is that these are not normal times They are the most abnormal times that any living American has ever seen. except possibly during the World War In their economics in this public and private business of making living and keeping the business machinery going -- they are far more abnormal than the war years, and lar more dangerous

OF COPPER

The troubles the government,
copper producers and refiners have
met in seeking to formulate a work.
able code, are indicative of the vast
number of problems the industry
-tways confronts.
No industry was hit harder by
depression-none will have to over
come more unfavorable factors in
fighting toward recovery. And no
industry is so vital to the progress
and development Of u states.
Whatever happens to the copper
code, it should have indicated one
thing to the residents of the min
ing states-that most infinite care
must be taken in formulating tax
and legislature policies affecting
mining, if the industry is again to
be a great employer, purchaser and
agent of progress.

Ford tri-motored airplane.
In an effort to prove the feast

made for the steed in the planes
cabin. Mrs. Rand. said she plans
soon to treat the horse to a flight
across the continent to Los Ange-
les.
Although the half-hour spin over
Manhattan was the first flight of
a horse in the history of American
aviation, Mrs. Rand flew the Ara
ban steed in recent air journeys
through Europe, once crossing the
English Channel.

Prohibition repeal means the end
of a number of the so-called "nui-
sance" taxes. These are: The 5
percent tax paid by stockholders on
dividends received; the one-tenth
of one per cent tax paid by cor
porations on declared value of capt.
tai stock; the 5 per cent tax paid
by corporations on income in excess
Of 12H per cent of declared value
of capital stock. The ~ cen
federal gas tax will be reduced to
l cent. It's likely hat other
taxes, such as that on bank checks,
will go.
Both the Federal Government and
the states are looking forward to
liquor as the provider of tremen-
deus sums of new revenue, are
planning what to do with it. Prin-
cipal danger is that there will be
too many fingers in the flowing
bowl, forcing the price of legal
stuff to where the bootleggers will
STAY in business and undersell.

YES-BUILD NOW!

How would this proposition
strike you?
You are given a chance to pur-
chase something you need-some-
thing that will be of permanent
and increasing value to you and
your family-for a fraction of
what it will cost within a year or
so. And, at the same time, by
buying it you will be expediating
recovery, putting men to work at
good wages in a hundred industries,
and stimulating businesses Of all
kinds in your town.
That's certainly an attractive
proposition-and it's not fictional.
The investment is construction.
Individual home building and re-
pairing is one Of the most import
ant factors in the recovery pro-
gram. And, so far, the construc-
ton industry has shown less pickup
than any business of comparable
size.
During the present winter it
will be possible to build well and
build cheaply You can obtain a
house for a few thousand dollars
that would have cost twice the
price four years ago-and probably
will again four years hence. The
same thing is true of repairs of all
kinds-from those rickety steps
you've been vaguely meaning to
have fixed for months, to that
roof which has suddenly developed
a leak. And-here is something
to think about-one-third of the
people on the relief rolls in the
larger cities are sormally engaged or
supported by the construction in
dustry. Starting BODYBUILDING
on a national scale is all that will
bring back their jobs.
Yes-build now! You'll never
regret it. Get that bargain in
homes that is being offered you
asd have the satisfaction If know
ing that you're doing your part to
prevent privation and want dur
ing the coming winter.

herself:

aged. / was so weak and thin. r

my condition.
Il had pains across my back
and lower part of my body. NV
nights were spent in rolling from
one side Of the bed to the other
hoping I would soon go to sleep.
Then when morning would come
l would be just as tired as when I
went to bed. A neighbor, seeing
now badly l felt, told me to try
Cardui. After 1 had taken one bot
tie, l was much better. + kept on
taking Cardui, and I was stronger
and slept much better at night"

Speaking of fires, the u. S. ha.

Speaking of fires, the u. S. has
one of its own. It's consuming
the prairie country. Not a literal
blaze, it is in the minds and hearts
of farmers, who believe the AAA
has failed to aid them; have watch
ed their purchasing power, in many
instances, go sharply down while
other prices wen sharply up. The
Administration is frankly worried
as the farm strike movement grows,
takes in more farmers, more kinds
of products, more states. Milo
Reno, who can be both a fire eater
and a fire maker, came into sight
again with his Farm Holiday As
ISOLATION, told his followers to buy
nothing, sell nothing, pay no taxes
and no debts, until selling prices at
least reached cost price. Two
governors expressed themselves as
being in. sympathy with farmers
strike.
Whole future of the Administra-
ton farm program is at stake and
strongest efforts will be given to
bringing order from chaos.

SEVERE monthly suffering is a
sign of warning.
If you are having aches and pains
every month, heed the WARNING.
See what is wrong.
Treat the CAUSE of the trouble.
When womanly aches and pains
are due to weak, rundown condi-
ton, take CARDUI. It has been
used by women for over SO years. 1t
is a purely vegetable medicine and it
cannot harm you. Thousands of
women have said that when they had
built up their strength with the help
of Cardui, real relief was obtained
and their general health and feeling
of well-being improved.
If you suffer this way, try Cardui,
which you car get at the drug store.

The business picture is confus-
ing. Best of late signs is in the
quarterly income reports. The
utility group was the only major
enc to make a poor showing so far
as profits were concerned; steel,
motors, chemicals, ETC., produced
definite advances for the nine
months as compared with last
year. One of most striking
changes was General Motors, which
for three-quarters Of the year, had
an 500 per cent jump in profits.
Current indicators aren't SCI
good. Steel operations were recent
ly down to % per cent of capacity,
where 50 per cent was reached in
the second quarter. The index of
automobile production slipped to
46, with seasonal adjustment made,
where it was 50 last quarter.
Electric power output had a de-
crease, instead of the normal sea-
sonal increase. Car1oadings re-
versed the favorable trade of other
late months.
