Stomach upsets and bowel troubles
OF grouping children can often be traced
to this single mistake.
There is better way to relieve
those occasional sluggish spells OF
constipation in a child of any age:
Use liquid laxative containing
SIENNA "a natural laxative). California
Syrup of Figs has the right amount
for children'S use, and this rich, fruity
syrup does not harm or upset child's
system.
Doctors advise liquid iaxatives,
and hospitals use the liquid form.
Almost any child who has been
convalescing in the hospital usually
comes out with bowels working like
a well-regulated watch.
Make the change now to pure,
California Syrup Of Figs instead Of
harsh medicines, you won't risk any
more violence to your child's appetite,
digestion, and general physical condi-
ton. Those little upsets and COM
plants just disappear as a rule and
the child is soon normal and happy
again.
THE LIQUID TEST" First:
select liquid laxative of the proper
strength for children. Second: give
the dose suited to the child's age.
Third: reduce the dose, if repeated,
until the bowels are moving without
any help at all.
Q An ideal laxative for this purpose
is the pure California Syrup of Figs,
but be sure the word California"
is on the bottle.

OIL GROUP SCORES
GAS PRICE CUTTING
Newly organized D. c. Pc
troIeum Committee Con-
demnS Practices.

Price cutting and below-cost sell
ing of gasoline were condemned at a
meeting yesterday of the recently or
ganized District Petroleum Committee
as destructive to the entire oil code.
Oil companies engaging in such prac-
tices, the committee said, are, in ef-
feet, paying dealers to take gasoline
for nothing and then charging of
losses against profitable departments.
Prices of / or 2 cents gallon be-
low wholesale, charged by some deal
ers in the District, are below the cost
of crude oil at the well. the committee
said Unless the price cutting provi-
sions of the oil code are enforced
here. the committee said it would call
upon the regional code authorities at
New York to strike it out of the code
Particular condemnation was aimed
at the effect of the price cutting of
big companies upon the smaller inde-
pendent dealers. The independents. it
was stated, cannot possibly operate on
such a basis, and thus virtually will
be forced either to suspend operations
or 60 out of business altogether.
The practice of large companies abb
sorbing gasoline taxes just outside the
District also was hit. The committee
declined to support request Of the
Montgomery County Civic Association
that the practice be continued.
Too much free service at filling sta
tions was seen as on its way out as a
usual practice. Quoting Abe Martin,
the committee said, What people
want is less service and more of that
they're payin' for" Cessation of the
practice of giving premiums is in COM
pliance with the code.
The new committee, which has
headquarters in the Tower Building, is
headed by L. S. Scott as chairman
and G. w. Boyer as secretary.

S2(D,O()D RELIEF
GRANTED DISTRICT
February Sum First Of Kind,
Previous Having Required
One Third Locally.

The District Commissioners we're
notified today by Harry L. Hopkins.
Federal relief administrator, that a
grant of 5000, 900 to cover relief needs
in Washington during February had
been made by the Federal Emergency
Relief Administration
This grant, made under subsection
c of section of the Federal relief
act. is the first of its kind to be made
to the District. Previous grants from
Federal funds have been on the basis
of one-third of the actual expendi-
lures for relief out of District funds.
The Districts own appropriation Of
81 100000 for unemployment relief is
now exhausted however. and conse-
quently the 100000 grant today was
made without reference to the spend
ing of any District money.
George S. wilson, director Of pub
lie welfare. said the money would en-
able the District Emergency Relief to
carry on through February, but that
another grant would be necessary for
March The burden on relief funds
in the past two weeks has been very
great. he said.
This is principally because workers
on civil works projects have been un-
able to work outside due to extreme
cold. Under the principle of no work,
no pay, the c. w. A. men do not draw
any money when prevented from
working. - .--.-. ...
The latest figures on Mr. Wilson S
desk, covering the period up to Janu-
airy 20. indicate relief expenditures at
rate of approximately S164.000 per
month. He said that since January
the rate has been considerably higher.

CIVIL WORKSFORCE
WILL Be REDUCED
100000 Out of 100000
Visit Federal Cashier
for Last Time.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Civil Works Administration
jingled millions in its jeans today to
assure immediate pay envelopes to
100000 persons-but for some 200,-
900 it will be the last visit to the
Federal cashier.
Even as Congress stopped arguing
to drop s45o,Oo0,0 900 into the empty
c. w. A. till. Administrator Harry L.
Hopkins told Government agencies to
reduce their civil works forces from
so to 80 per cent.
Cessation Ordered.
At the same time he ordered cesSa-
ton of Federal civil works not on
Federal or other public property.
With practically all of its first
s400 900 900 fund exhausted last Sat-
urday. the c. w A appeared about
to halt stock-still or at least go pay
roll-less.
But even with this problem an
swered, Hopkins served notice that
still in effect.
He intends to cut the total of en-
ployes by about 10 per cent a week,
until the army will have practically
vanished by May l. Once at a peak
of 100000 men, it already is 100000
below that figure.
Under Hopkins latest instructions,
further rehabilitation begins tonight.
But the exact number to be dismissed
at once has not been determined The
orders, Civil Works officials estimate,
affect the employment of 263, ,6S2 in
dividuals.
Some will be retained on a few
continuing Federal projects, however
Projects rearing completion are ex-
pected to be finished. but many un-
