Solution to Previous

Secretary. American Bridge League
THIS year I'm looking for the
l. Women's Team-of- -Four event
to be one of the most popular of
the National Contract Champion
ship Tournament.
AS I have said before, women have
made some fine records this year.
One of the teams will be captained
by that colorful little player, Mrs.
P. Hal Sims.
Mrs. Sims likes the game of con-
tract because her husband is one of
the outstanding figures in bridge.
She likes nothing better than to
beat him at contract.
However, several years ago she
discovered that, by simply employ
ing ordinary tactics, she could get
nowhere against him. So she Gre
ated psychic bidding and, to this
day, she still creates a lot of ex-
element in any tournament in
which she participates.

Why the Sudden
Change to Liquid
LaxatiVeS !?

Doctors have always recognized the
value of the laxative whose dose can
be measured, and whose action can
be thus regulated to suit individual
need.
The public, too, is fast returning
to the use of liquid laxatives. People
have learned that a properly pre-
pared liquid laxative brings a more
natural movement without any dis
comfort at the time, or after.
The dose of liquid laxative can
be varied to suit the needs of the
individual. The action can thus be
regulated. 1t forms no habit; you
need not take a double dose" a day
or two later. Nor will a mild liquid
laxative irritate the kidneys.
The urong cathartic may often do
more harm than good.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a
prescription, and is perfectly safe.
It's laxative action is based on SIENNA
"a natural laxative. The bowels will
not become dependent on this form

HOUSE ORGANS

Anyone who follows the pub

ever had to paste such q

a tear for the German editors.

American Industries Benefit
By Our Moscow Investment
By James T. Williams, Jr.

COW Factory Of Friendly Re-
lations.
The annual interest charge
on $1,165, 900 at 312 per cent
is $4O,775, which is considerably
less than $4,000 our Govern
ment is now paying in rent.
When the Government moves
into it's own buildings, it will
save the rental charge Of the
buildings which its mission now
occupies. BY the expenditure Of
$40,775 a year, $4,000 a year
will be saved. The net saving
will be $1O,225 annually. Is it
extravagant to save this amount
each year? A hard-headed Amer
lean business man wouldn't
think so.
But there is another side to
the investment in American
buildings in Moscow which the
President and Congress have re"
Gently made that will appeal to
the common sense of the Nation.
The Russian people are badly
in need of building materials OF
all kinds. For our Government
buildings soon to be constructed
in Moscow, American materials
and American tools were bought
in this country and shipped over
to the Russian capital. Amer
lean carpenters in the United
States will fabricate all wood
work for these buildings. Amer
lean factories will produce the
wires, the pipes, the heating
plant, the radiators, paint, furni.
ture, carpets and curtains. These
products of American industry
will be shipped as far as Lenin'
grad in American ships. At Mos
COW they will be installed under
American supervisors of con-
struction.
Permanent Exhibition
Of the total amount voted
for American government offices
and living quarters in Moscow
for nearly one hundred Amer.
leans who represent our gov
ernment at the Russian capital,
approximately 100000 will be
spent on American industry.
This expenditure will give en-
ployment at home to many
Americans. 1t will give our
factories a permanent exhibi-
ton of American products in
the capital of the country
which may be our best market
for years to come. The Rus
slams have already manifested
their liking for American prod
ucts. They want to see and
know more about them.
Thus by satisfying an Ameri-
can necessity in Moscow, the
President and the Congress, in
odering the construction of suit.
able office buildings and living
quarters for our representatives
at the Russian capital, are
benefiting American industry
at home and helping to make a
new market for its products
abroad. This has been done
in other capitals. It ought to
be done in every foreign
capital at which the American
Government is represented.

It was introduced in the House by Republican and

It numbers it's friends among all parties analysis
of the signatures on the first petition will show
The patriotism which induced the great body of our
thrifty citizens to leave their money in banks at the
urgent request of the Government was non partisan
The patriotism which should animate the members
of Congress in doing justice to those citizens should be
equally without partisan bias.
And there should be swerving on the part of any

Of course if he regards the Mcleod bill political

he had made sufficient play his signature not desired

on the first.
THE MCLEOD BILL, WITH ITS ENORMOUS
POTENTIALITIEs AS A RECOVERY MEASURE,
HAS SUFFERED TREMENDOUSLY FROM THE
POLITICAL JOCKEYING OF INDIVIDUALS AND
GROUPS.
Every conceivable effort has been made to screw
