c. H. Granger, president of the Waterbury Clock company is one of the latest of the Connecticut manu- lecturers to oppose the bill. Tn a letter to Senator Caraway, demo- crat, chairman of the subcommittee, MT. Granger declared that the whole thing was loaded with dyna- mite;" and that it's passage would result in all sorts of court actions. He said the bill was another en- croachment on states rights"
 President D. c. Griggs of the Wat erbury Farrel Foundry and Machine company states: i've do not know of any emergency at this time that de- mands the passing of Senator Loner- gan's bills and we hope you (Senator Caraway) will see that the matter is very carefully studied before you approve of the legislation. Our feel- ing is that until 1t has been demon- strated the states can't handle this matter themselves, the federal gov- ernment should not take 1t up."

Immediately the doctor set to work to Ind the remedy. He succeeded and called his prescription HEM ROID.
 Pile sufferers everywhere are benentting by pr. LeonhardfH dis. eovery. 60 why doubt or delay long. CT when Apotheearlee Hall Co. and at drugklats say, NO matter what kind of Piles you have, one bottle of HsM-R -ROfD tablets must show you ihs safe clean way to get rid of your pile misery or money back"
