President Roosevelt stood pat or

But the senate with the aid of 19
boiling Democrats defied his veto
threats wednesday night and voted
$30,000,000 more. The house sup

Finally last night the senate OPP
position crumbled. While angry de-

bells jingled in the Democratic
cloakroom as Mr.. Roosevelt called
this and that senator to plead for
votes. House Democrats were frank
ly informed by Majority Leader
Byrnes that they must support the
administration if they expected
help in the elections next year.
Only eight Democratic senators
opposed the President on the final

Wheeler of Montana. There was no

Railroads Must
Build Station

WASHINGTON, June 10. W.E)-
The interstate commerce commits
sion today reaffirmed its order re-
quiring railroads serving Los An
gees to relocate their tracks in con-
nection with construction of a new
union station.
The railroads were ordered by
the California state consrnission to
construct a new passenger station
at Los Angeles. The federal COM
mission authorized the road to re-
locate their tracks SO they would
run into the new station.
The railroads, opposed to build
ing the station, asked the commits
ion to reconsider its order author
izing relocation of tracks, but the
commission refused.

New York Stocks
By ELMER c. Waller
United Press Financial Editor

NEW YORK. Nov. 20. = Better
business reports for several indus
tries higher gold prices, a lower
dollar. and strength in commodities
injected new life into the stock mat
ket today.
Prices rose fractions to points
and several issues made new higiis
for tie day. For a time in the late
trading demand was so great for
stocks that tickers fell behind the
market.
Heaviest dealings we're noted in
The automobile division. General
Motors was active and strong, ris-
ing more than a point. Chrysler
jumped more than points and Au-
burn nearly 4 points. A lower dol
lar was distinct benefit to these
companies since it was directly re-
sponsible for a pickup in demand
for automobiles from abroad.
Among the issues to make ncw
highs for the year or longer were
American Can. Du Pont, Continent
al Can, Sears Roebuek, Mathieson
Alkali, Texas Gulf Surphur and
Pathe Exchange A.
United States Steel was favorite
in the late dealings. It crosses 45
for a gain of more than points.
Farm equipment shares were
huoyant on prospect of orders from
Soviet Russia. A strong grain mar
ket helped.
TobaccoS were in better demand
than for some time. American is
sues jumped 2 points while Liggett
and Myers shares made wider gains.
Gains of 2 10 points were noted
in American Telephone: Case. Gel
anese, Eastman Kodak, Western
Union. Johns Manville anG R. H.
Macy.
Railroad shares joined the ad-
vance at gains ranging to more
than 3 points. Delaware & Hudson
reached 53 7-8. up 7-8, and held
most Of the rise. New York Cen
tral touched 37iA, up points. Utii-
tiles recovered part CT their recent
losses and ruled strong to the close.
Sales totaled 1,850,000 shares,
against 1923, 800 shares Friday.
Curb sales were $4,000 shares,
against $4,000 Friday

No INJURY To
CHEVROLET BY
100 HOURRU

Astonishing alike to motor me-
chanics, experts and garage men in
Ell Centro were the results of Sarge
Coles 1OO-hour endurance test of
the Chevrolet stock car. last week.
When the sealed speedometer
was opened, it was disclosed that
Sarge had orlven the machine
ABA miles, at all speeds, from 12:15
p. m. last Tuesday until Ais p. m.
Saturday. The mileage per gallon
of Challenge gasoline was 17.3,
which is considered a most un-
usual showing, because of the long
intervals of idling time, with the
engine eating up gasoline without
any corresponding mileage being
marked up on the indicator. It was
condition of the test that the
motor be kept running continuously
for the full quota of 100 hours.
There was not squeak or a
rattle in the body, in spite of the
gruelling torture through which it
was put. 1t was sent through a hill
climbing test on the Mountain
Springs grade, starting from stop.
1t was charged at full speed to
within a few feet of brick walls,
and then stopped inches from them
by the full instant appliance of the
brakes, while sand and dust flew
in clouds. 1t was driven in high
gear at its lowest possible speed,
barely creeping, and then it was
shot ahead at the greatest speed
of which its powerful and noise
less engine was capable.
Both the motor and the Fisher
body came through with flying
colors, proving to the full all the
claims of their manufacturers
General Motors.
The Oil was taken from the
crank case and measured, and in
all the 1,434 miles of continuous
driving, only one. half pint of
Hyvis oil was consumed,-also a
wonderful, remarkable record.
Tie Goodrich tires did not lose
an ounce of pressure, and were
hardly worn on the treads at all.
The wonderful distribution of bal
ance and weight of the car itself
and the sturdy ruggedness of the
fabric of the tires, as well as their
scientific construction are Jointly

CONFUSION ENDED
ON BRAN
New Ruling Corrects All
Labels

To protect the buying public, the
United States Food and Drug Ad-
ministration has advised that every
package of cereal labeled Bran
state on the label exactly what it
contains.
Before this ruling, even part
bran products were sometimes mis-
takenly referred to as Bran" 1t
was not easy for the purchaser TO
distinguish between a cereal that
was entirely bran, or all bran with
favoring, and another that was
mostly wheat.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN is labeled
SAIL BRAN Deliciously Favored
with Malt, Sugar and Salt state
ment which describes the product
fairly and honestly.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN has won mil
lions of friends because it corrects
most types of common constipation
safely and pleasantly. 1t furnishes
generous "bulk" y needed to pro-
mote normal elimination.
However, ALL-BRAN is not a
"cure-all." Certain types of intes-
tinal disorders should be treated
only on physicians advice.
When you buy a bran cereal, for
the relief of constipation, read the
wording on the package. The facts
are there! Make sure by asking
for Kellogg's ALL-BRAN. It fur
nishes "bulk" in concentrated form
for satisfactory results.

green package. Made by Kellogg in
