The speed with which Bayer tab
lets act in relieving the distressing
symptoms ofc colds and accompany
ing sore throat is utterly amazing
and the treatment is simple
and pleasant. This is all you do.
Crush and dissolve three genuine
Bayer Aspirin tablets in one-third
glass of water. Then gargle with
this mixture twice, holding your
head we'll back.
This medicinal gargle will act
almost like a local anesthetic on
the sore, irritated membrane of
your throat. Pain eases promptly:
rawness is relieved.
You will say it is remarkable.
And the few cents it costs effects
abig saving over expensive throat
gargles' and strong medicines.
And when you buy, see that you
get genuine BAYER ASPIRIN.

IVA. HEAD SAYS
HASTE WAS NEED
LiIientha| Justifies Fixing of
Power Rates Early in
Program.
By the Associated Press.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, July 25.-T.
Y. A. Director David E. Lilienthal tes-
tified today that demand for quick
action" justified fixing OF "yardstick"
power rates in September. 1888, when
the Tennessee Valley Authority's pro-
gram was barely under way
Appearing for the third day before
a congressional investigation commit
tee, Mr.. Lilienthal denied he acted
without responsibility and without
advising his colleagues.
DR.. Arthur E. Morgan, depoSed
chairman of the agency, charged last
week that Mr. Lilienthal fixed and an
nounced the rate schedules without his
consent or knowledge on a "guesswork'
basis.
Replying to Dr. Morgan's accuSa-
tions, Mr.. Lilienthal declared he acted
with full authority of the Board of
Directors and that DR.. Morgan later
went on record as terming the rate
fixing a "masterful' job.
Soon after the T. V. A. was Gre
ated, Lilienthal asserted. there was a
clamor from North Alabama towns
for rate schedule
He quoted the board minutes to show
he was authorized to proceed with ne
gotiationS with the assistance of
Llewellyn Evans, then T. v. A. chief
electrical engineer, and former man
ager of the Tacoma, Wash, municipal
plant.
Says Action Was Justified.
Representative Charles Wolverton.
Republican, of New Jersey, interrupted
Mr.. Lilenthal's testimony to ask:
DO you think the emphasis placed
on action justified the fixing Of rates
so soon after the creation of the
T. V. A. without the boards ap-
proval?"
Yes" replied Mr.. Lilienthal adding
there had been conversations within
the board on the fixing of rates.
The Authority's power rates were
announced in September, 1888, four
months after the act OF Congress ere
ating the Authority ALLEGATIONS of
cost in construction of Wheeler. Will
son and Norris Dams we're not made
until last May.

set aside 50 per cent of the costs to
power, % per cent to food control and
20 per cent to navigation.
Openly Arrived at.
Mr. Lilienthal before the committee
last week maintained the rates and
ALLEGATIONS arrived at openly by ex-
perts" are sound. but that the rates
are in fact too high
He denied the ALLEGATIONS were
! shaped to fit the previously announced
retail 'yardstick' rates, which he said
we're based on costs of operating eX-
penses. depreciation. taxes. reserve for
new construction and amortization for
the capital structure.
In voting the congressional inves-
tigation of the T. Y. A. Congress spe-
cifcally charged the committee with
determining:
Whether by accounting methods
and cost charges applicable to pri-
vate industry. the electric rates of
the Authority provide a legitimate,
honest yardstick' of equitable rates
of private industry"
Mr.. Lilienthal said he would sub
nit to the committee an appraisal
which would bear out his contention
that present power rates are too high.
