How CARDUI
Women

Cardui is a purely vegetable
medicine, found by many wo-
men to ease functional pains of
menstruation. It also helps to
strengthen women, who have
been weakened by poor nourish,
ment, by increasing their appe-
tite and improving their diges-
ton. Many have reported last
ing benefit from the wholesome
nutritional assistance obtained
by taking Cardui. If you need
help like this, get Cardui at the
nearest drug store, read the di-
rections and try it.

WHERE PERFECT ACCORD
VAS NEVER INTENDED

cooperation is grand thing. 1t is a
weapon Tor progress, thing that should
be accorded all the best wishes of anv
community, state or nation. Cooperation
is highly desirable-if it is the right kind
of cooperation.
Perfect cooperation, as it is defined in
some quarters, was never intended b<-
tween the legislative, judicial and exc
cutive branches of the federal govern
ment, however. The men who drafted
the Constitution of the United States
foresaw the danger in too-great coopera-
ton between the three branches of gov

The President, wishing to reorganize

the three horses" will pull together.
In three-horse team, he points out. the
effectiveness of the team is lost if one
horse goes off at a tangent from the
others. He is eminently correct-if he is
speaking of horses.
Let US carry the Presidents theme a
bit farther. A three-horse team, or a
two-horse team, or one-horse team for
that matter, must have driver if it is
to go in the right direction. If we are to
iihSh icSioldlNc, JuuiCldl anu executive
branches to horses, then we may call the
public the driver. Anyone who has driv-
en- horses knows that it is a hopeless
task without reins.
Where are the reins between the pub
lic and the three horses of the govern
ment? Surely the constitution of the
United States provides the reins!
The driver of team controls the reins
with his hands, the public controls its
government team with its votes
Is the guiding line between the team
and the driver to be controlled bv one
of the horses? Not if we are speaking of
horses-and not if we are speaking of

and reorganization of the Supreme Court
along proposed lines would have that
effect-surely the driver should mani
pulate the reins In other words, the
change should be up to the fublic. 1t
should be made only after it had been
put to vote.
When the team controls the driver,
then nobody knows where the team is
going.

News Behind the News
Real Neutrality Impossible T.. England
Stands to Profit Congress
On a Neic Spot

Observation-Disclosures the forthcoming
neutrality legislation admittedly will be a tre-
mendous improvement over nothing at all, many
OF its strongest advocates are willing TO admit
that real neutrality appears to be impossible to
attain.
England conspicuously stands to profit under
the Pittman and McReynolds planS-a combina-
ton of which probably will be made into law.
That is in line with the notions of the State
Department. where it is considered good policy
to plan on lining up with England in the event
this country ever has TO choose sides in an align
ment of world powers.
Rejection of proposals to stop all trade with
belligerentS in time of war has left Congress in
odd position. Legislation designed to keep
the United States out of war still will balk rigid
neutrality in far as the laws effect is con-
cerned
Nations with powerful fleets profit at the
expense of weaker naval powers, and the Pres
ident is given discretionary power which could
easily when used. to provoke foreign nations into
belligerent acts against us.
The embargo on exports of arms to belliger-
ent nations apparently will be absolute. So
will the prohibition against export Of materials

ferred to the purchaser. But limitation is
proposed export OF the raw materials which
can be used to make munitions. Oil, cotton, cop
per, steel and wheat are at least important
arms to nations al
When-and if-another European war comes.
ii is to be expected the British navy will domin-
ate the seas-at least with relation to shipments
of goods from these shores. That would mean
that Britain and her friends could come to
Atlantic coast ports and get all the supplies
they were able to pay for Germany, Italy
France Russia would be unable to do that in
any of them happened to be lined up in
against England.
In the Pacific Japan would be able to i'm
port from the United States but not Russia
and not China, if Jap:n n were at with either.
The President will be empowered to list COM
modities whose transport on American ships
might threaten to get into war. and to forbid
American ships to carry them. But the come
and-get-it-cash-and principle would still
be there.
Just for speculation, imagine that England
is at war with Germany again that she block
ports from the rest of the world. Then Germany
plies of any kind to England. and that the Pres
ident at once lists everything he think of
as goods not to be carried on American ships
to belgerent nations.
The net result would be that the United
States, by abandoning her traditional stand for
freedom OF the seas. would retreat from the
position which was ostensiby, il not actually
the primary reason for her entry into the World
War against Germany. But, it would be hard
to demonstrate that the United States had pur-
sued course OF strict neutrality, and England
would still be free TO send her ships here
and buy all types Of materials and food
stuffs.

If the average government could
only find some way of letting its
right hand know what its left hand
doeth, the world might have a far
better chance of living in peace
these days.
The other day. for example, Jap
aneSe and American officials gath
cred about the grave of Commodore
Matthew Perry. in New York, and
exchanged new VOWS as to the eter-
nal qualities Of the friendship and
harmony existing between America
and Japan.
japanese Ambassador Saito sent
telegram mentioning "the indie
Structibility of the traditional
friendship" An official of the Am
erican State Department remarked
that Japan and America have never
been enemies and that the Amer
lean people and government hope
that the record thus established
will never be impaired" And Pres
ident Roosevelt. from afar, shed
his blessing on the memorial serv-
ices to the American seaman who
brought Japan into the modern
world.
Now all this sounds extremely
fine, and might lead one to believe
that prospects for continued peace
between the two nations were never
better-if it were not that each of
tn governments involved supports
a fighting force as we'll as a hand
shaking department, and that the
fighters don't seem to know just
what the handshakers are up to.
The Japanese have been spend

They have prepared whole chain

They have refused to be bound any
longer by the limitations of the
Washington naval treaty And.
somehow, it is impossible to escape
the conclusion that. in doing these
things, they are thinking principal
ly of friendly old Uncle Sam across
the water.
Similarly America has been and
still is spending vast sums on its
fleet. The Hawaiian base is being
made into a regular Gibraltar.
There are rumors of air bases and
the like in the Aleutian islands.
And once again. it is hard to doubt
that all this is being done with one
eye on the friendly Japanese. over

A LOSS
TO BE REGRETTED

Carl Helmick, Boy Scout executive
of the Imperial Yuma council, has re-
ceived orders transferring him to River
side. 1t is in the nature of a deserved
promotion but one which will hardly
be welcomed here. For Helmick's sake,
those in Imperial Valley who know him
will be jubilant, but for their own sake,
they will be sorry Imperial county is
losing an able worker in the cause of
youth.
Since Helmick took over executive
duties in the Imperial Valley Yuma Val
ley area the number of Boy Scout troops
has increased materially. The number
of boys actually engaged in scouting
work has almost doubled. To know what
those boys have accomplished under Hell
mick's supervision, one need only visit
the Boy Scout booth at the Imperial
county fair.
1t is Riverside county's gain and I'M
perial county's loss that Helmick is 60
ing there. The executive is to be con-
graduated on his promotion, and his
superiors deserve equal congratulations
for their wise action.
