strategy for bringing about reOr-
ganizatiOn of the Federal courts.
While administration leaders and
reorganization leaders alike took adj
vantage of slowing legislative activity
to further consolidate their forces,
Mr.. Roosevelt genially told newsmen
he preferred to make no comment on
developments at either the White
House or the Capitol.
Informed persons expressed the OPP
inion the President would let labor
and farm legislation wait ON his court
bill There was a growing belief, too,
he would not yield to a compromise
on his plans.
Lincoln's birthday found the House
meeting briefly to hear an address
about the Civil War President. The
Senate was in recess.
The Senate civil liberties group,
however, pressed it's investigation Of
the Pinkerton National Detective
Agency, an official of which testified
when he learned the agency was to be
subjected to the inquiry he removed

Admits His Guilt

New York, Feb. 12.-(AP)-Mur-
ray Bleefeld, one of three men on
trial in Kings county court, Brook
lyn, on charges of kidnapping Paul
Wendell, former New Jersey attor-
ney, in surprise move entered a
plea of guilty to kidnapping.
Counsel for Bleefled told the
court he desired to make mo-
ton for BleefeId and asked for re-
mOval of the jury.
j. F. Fitzgerald refused to &C
cede to the request and Burton
Turkus, of defense counsel, joined
in the plea for removal, explaining
what was to be said was prejudi-
cial to Martin SchlOssman and
Harry Weiss, the other defendants
whom he represents.
The judge again denied the mo-
ticn and Bleefeld withdrew his plea
of not guilty and pleaded guilty.
The defense then rested.

London, Feb. IL (AP)-Great
Britain was reported in informed
circles today to be planning war
expenditures of between six billion
dollars and eight billion dollars in
the next five years as "blg
stick" to enforce peace in Europe.
The huge drive for ornaments,
launched by the government yester-
day, according to indications in par
circles, would be used as
visible and invisible club over the
heads of pickering European nations.
The estimates for the long-term
program followed quickly on the heels
of the governments request to Par
lament for a $4,000, 100000 defense
loan.
How fast the money would be rails
ed and spent for the largest peace
time war plan ever outlined to Com
mons remained undisclosed.
The present rate, plus the request
ed defense loan, would put the five
year total at $6,25O,OOO,Oo0, but most
sources expected the even
tual amount would be higher.

Water Necessary to Body

such prepared foods as dry cereals
and crackers and candy are with

Homes, Offices Too Dry
In the modern American home
and Office in the winter time, the
insensible water loss must be close
to the upper limits mentioned Or
beyond them. The temperature at
which we keep our living quarters
in the winter and the lack of mois-
ture is severe drain on even a
strong constitution. They have
been quite aptly. compared to the
Sahara desert, both as to tempera-
ture and humidity. Many head
aches and fatigues, with loss of ap-
petite, are caused by these factors.
The only way we can endure it at
all is to perspire freely and contin-
uously, and even though this per-
spiration is invisible, it results in
quite considerable water loss.
It is much easier to reduce the
amount of water in the tissues than
to increase it. The symptoms of
such reduction are now well known,
although for long time they were
puzzling. It had been noticed that:
those who worked in very hot
places stokers in the boiler room,
railway fremen, cooks and miners
in certain types Of nines-would
be taken with muscle cramps and
tremblings. It has been found that
this is simply due to water and salt
loss in perspiration, and can be pre-
vented by drinking plenty Of water
