f" WASHINGTON was born In q
wv house facing Popes creek, in
Westmoreland county, Virginia,
but the house burned on December
%, 1850. The old domestic has been
included In the George Washington
Birthplace National monument, and
the house restored between 1880 and
1882 on its original site.
The old family burial ground, con-
tanning the bodies of Washington's IA
Their. grandfather and great-grandfa-
Their, is included on the 40O-acre reser-
walton. The George Washington Birth
place National Monument is 30 miles
from Washington on United States
route / and Virginia State route 3.
The Washington family first settled
at Wakefield in 1855, full century
before the Revolution. Col. John
Washington, great-grandfather of the
President had come to Westmoreland,
Va, in 1856. He died and was buried
there in 1916. Maj. Lawrence Wash
ington and Maj. John Washington, his
sons, succeeded him.
After their marriages the family
lived on separate parts of the Wake
field estate until the house In which
George Washington was born burned.
After that the Washingtons continued
in other houses on the same land, and
descendants still live on part of the
same Wakefield estate-a continuous
possession, in whole or in part, for 264
years-eight generations.

Population of New State.

Congress- in 1872, adopted a meas
ure which declared new state must
have sufficient population to entitle
1t to at least one representative. At
that time 121, 425 persons was suf-
f1cient number. However, later con-
crosses admitted Nevada, Wyoming
and other states. although their popu-
lations were less than this figure.

Second, Calotabs are diuretic to the
kidneys, promoting the elimination
Of cold poisons from the blood. Thus
Calotabs serve the double purpose Of
a purgative and diuretic, both Of
which are needed In the treatment
Of colds.
Calctabs are quite economical;
only twenty-five cents for the family
package, ten cents for the trial
package. (Adv.)

A CHILD'S LAXATIVE
SHOULD Be LIQUID
(Ask any DOCTOR

For your own comfort, and for your
children's safety and future welfare,
you should read this:
The bowels cannot be helped to
regularity by any laxative that can't
be regulated as to dose. That is why
doctors use liquid laxatives.
A liquid laxative can always be
taken in the right amount. You can
gradually reduce the dose. Reduced
dosage is the secret of real and safe
relief from constipation.
The right liquid laxative dose gives
the right amount of help. When
repeated, instead of more each time,
you take less. Until bowels are NOV
ing regularly and thoroughly without
any help at all.
The liquid laxative generally used
is DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It
contains SIENNA and cascara, natural
laxatives that form no habit - even
in children. Its action is gentle, but
sure. 1t will clear up a condition OF
biliousness or sluggishness without
upset. Every druggist has it.

picture I ever made, for I hadent
learned to try to act. There amt
nothing worse than an actor when
we act.
I have always had a great respect
and friendship for Rex and Mrs.

outside all this writing. He is an
authority on a lot of things. He
has lovely home near Sebring,
Florida, and went to work and
cleared a lot of swamp lake land
and started raising celery on a real
scientific principle. He ships it to
New York and its a real boni fide
going concern.
Now he has got some Florida dirt,
or something that is the very min
eral that every person, or plant
needs to make it grow. Who ever
heard of feeding people Fertilizer, .
but that's what it is.
1t makes grass grow, people grow,
chickens lay, cows give milk. Its
all developed under some great land
chemist, and Rex says its a great
thing. I am going to get him TO
ship M a car load of it to Cali

and make EN- run faster, some on
the Alfalfa to make it grow, and
another few spoons full on my Chill

Rex was a-telling me about a ia

CONV|CTS ON
STATE ROADS
Proposed Plan To Augment
Present Number Discarded
After Meeting With Governor

SACRAMENTO. Aug. "a. UP) =
Convict labor will not replace free
men employed on state highway
projects, Earl Lee Kelly, director of
public works, announced today af-
ter a conference with Gov. Frank
F.. Merriam.
Decision to make no additions to
present convict road camps was
reached after a study of many
complaints received from labor or
ganiEations, chambers of commerce
and civic groups.
Officials had planned to double
the size and number of prison
camps in order to relieve conges-
ton in San Quentin and Folsom
prisons and to make up in part for
the loss of highway construction
funds which resulted from the le-
gislature increasing the city's share
of the gasoline tax.
Governor Merriam feels that
while extensive use of convictS on
road work would help relieve dam
gerous and deplorable congestion
in San Quentin prison, the unem-
ployment situation in California is
Of such serious Importance that the
replacement OF free labor by con-
victs would not be justified at this
time" Kelly said.
10 ,N1n
conyicts on the roads was made af-
ter the electorate defeated a pro-
posed bond issue which would have
provided funds for new prison in
Southern California.
Construction of the Feather Ri
yer and Carmel-San Simeon high
ways will continue and there will
be no withdrawal Of heavy road
building equipment" Kelly said,
countermanding early reports that
prison camps in those areas would
be increased and heavy machinery
replaced by hand labor.
THE governor does not wish to
aggravate the present unemploy-
ment situation by replacing ma
chinery and construction crews
with convicts. He has expressed the
hope that he will find other means
to remedy the overcrowding at
San Quentin.
"The normal employment of con-
victs will not be increased"
Approximately 500 convicts are
employed in prison road camps. Of
ficials had planned to increase the
number to 1000.

MARINE UNION
D|SAPPROvES
BOARD AWARD

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. "a. W.R
Union disapproval of an arbitra-
ton award announced only last
night forecast today new maritime
troubles on the Pacific coast at the
expiration of existing working
agreements September 80.
The Marine Engineers Benefi-
cial association was not satisfied
with the terms of an award grant
ing them wage increases and
changes in working conditions. The
award, retroactive to March l, ex-
pires September 30.
1t was made public last night by
a board appointed as an aftermath
of the 1884 general maritime strike
Frank l.. Guerena, neutral men,
ber, and George A. Armes, repre-
sentative of the ship-oWners on the
arbitration board, promulgated it.
Joseph c. Sharp, labor representa-
tive, refused to approve it.
While spokesmen for the engi-
neers were expressing their dis
satisfaction with their intentions
to seek more favorable terms in a
news agreement, longshoremen OF
the west coast were preparing to eX-
press their sentiment toward renew
ing their own agreement with ship
operators and members of the sail
orS' union of the Pacific were re-
ported preparing new schedule
of wage demands.
dolph MerriWeather, west
coast spokesman of the M. E. B. A,
said the wage increases ranging
from SIS to $73 a month granted
the engineers were not sufficient
to compensate for the 14-year Pc
riod of drastic wage reductions"
the engineers have experienced.
Meantime William R. Lewis, dis
trict president of the International
Longshoremen's association, report
ed unusually heavy balloting of his
membership on the question of ex-
tending or abrogating an embargo
against shipping from the British
Columbia strike one. The voting
ended last night. The results, of
paramount interest in the troubled
maritime labor situation, will be an

johnson said congress, worn and
weary and frazzled as We are was

Taking the floor at the opening
of the session, Johnson protested
eloquently against the haste with
which the subject was being con-
sidered.
1t is arrant nonsense" he said,
Ito think we are going to prevent
war by acting on a resolution OF
this kind overnight"
DO not delude yourselves that
this resolution will accomplish any
great results johnson shouted. 1t
will not prevent any wars. When
the people are told that it will, they
are simply being deceived and de-
luded."
He denounced statements that
this country may be involved in a
general European war, growing out
of the talo-Ethiopian crisis: we
are not going across the seas. We
have learned our lesson, dearly
There was time when We might
nave been forced, by blundering,

We will send you no wheat to feed
your people'?"
He said he intended TO support
the resolution simply because 1t
was temporary and because it is
at least a gesture in the interest
Of peace"
Il do not believe that congress
has had sufficient time to consider
it. I think it unwise to announce
the policy by statutory law that
America will sell neither munitions
nor supplies to any nation at war"
He said such refusal would re-
suit inevitably in the triumph Of
the stronger and better prepared
nation.
