wake UP YOUR
LIVER BILE

Without CalomeI-And You'll Jump Out Of Bed in
the Morning Rarin' to Go
The liver should pour out two pounds Of
LIQUID bile into your bowels daily. If this bile
isnot flowing freely, your food doesnt digest.
It just decays in the bowels. Gas bloats up
your stomach. You get constipated. Your
whole system Is poisoned and you feel sour,
sunk and the world looks punk.
A mere bowel movement doesn't get at
the cause. It takes those good, old Carriers
Little Liver Pills to get these two pounds
of bile flowing freely and make you feel
''up and up" Harmless. gentle. yet amas-
ing in making bile flow freely. Ask for
Carter's Little Liver Pills by name. 25 cents.
Stubbornly refuse anything else.

HELPING CD SMALL
BUSINESS

The New Deal is currently manifest
ing heart-breaking soIicitude for the
little fellows in the business world. If
motivated by something more than
fear for 1910, this is laudable, if be-
lated. But if it is a stripe with New
Deal "cooperation" with big business,
the little fellows may devoutly pray
to be delivered from their friends"
Small business has every reason to
be skeptical of this sudden New Deal
interest. And this skepticism will not
be abated by the parading of New
Deal stooges before the Monopoly
Committee which involved economic
theories which are Greek to the small
business man.
The little fellow knows that the New
Deal long since could have bettered his
lot by revision of the intricate Federal
tax structure. He knows that the Pres
ident has consistently refused to take
the lead in this. He also knows that
even at this late day the President has
done nothing more than to consent"
reluctantly to tax revision when pres
sure from business and the Congress
made any other course impossible.
Business men, big and little, are not
opposed to an equitable corporation
tax. They have become familiar with
it; they find it relatively simple and
easy to compute. But they are heavily
burdened when on top of the corpora
ton income tax they are required tc
compute and file returns on an undis-
tributed profits tax, capital stock
tax, an excess profits tax, an unem-
ployment compensation tax, an old
age pension insurance tax and various
sales and nuisance excuses and other
levies, Federal, State and local.
Because Of the complicated Federal
tax requirements, the heads of large
corporations find it necessary to keep
lawyers and accountants at their ell
bows and consult them on nearly every
management decision.
Many medium-sized corporations

spend more money on tax accounting,
legal advice and extra bookkeeping
than they pay in taxes.
The real 'little fellows" can't afford
all of this extra high-priced help. They
have to do their own wrestling with
the multitude of tax problems and re-
turns-and that doesn't leave them
much time to devote to their job Of
running their businesses.
They are not interested in prolong-
ed committee investigations which get
nowhere. They are demanding the re-
moval of obvious handicaps NOW!

POINTS WAY TO
AVOID DICTATORSHIP

Editor, The Times: Your edi-
torial about the threat of dicta-
tors is a warning of the future
of our democracy Dictators can
only exist. and get a following
when democracy is abused
We may look back only so
years to see where our legisla-
tors in all branches of govern
ment We're dishing out special
privileges to individuals and cor
porations. and these have taken
advantage to perpetuate their
holdings. not to better the con-
dition of mankind but to force
producers and consumers to pay
tribute to investments that gave
no service in return.
1t is abuses that force the
ma lority to fellow dictators who
advocate eXtre e measures.
Dictators can only hold power
as long as they can furnish the
ma jority better living conditions.
The moment they fail on any
of their promises of betterment,
the only power left them is mill
tary force to subdue the masses.
Dictatorships are nothing new.
We have had them in all ages
in the past. Only equal rights to
all and special privileges to none
will prevent dictatorship in our
nation. FRED GIESLER.

Years and the Bible

In recent report of the American Institute of Public
Opinion concerning Americas reading preferences, it

Bible is the most universally read The surprising feature
of the report is the age distribution Of the Bible readers
The percentage OF those 90 old who preferred
the Bible than twice large the number be-
tween 30 and 90 and six times large the number under

other single book fewer young people reading it.

Though it is fact that much of the Bible study

When they have the failure of all other social and

LIMIT DIRECTORS
To FEW BOARDS

L IS worth considering Under
such circumstances manage
ment and labor would be repre-
scented by the operative board
and the stockholders would he
represented by the supervising
board. All that would be needed
would be a prohibition against
one man being on more than
two or three such boards.
As for the public, any notion
that the public can look for pro-
lection from the boards is ridic-
ulous. The public must look out
for itself through consumer or
CARNATIONS and public agencies
such as the federal trade COM
mission, the SEC and the like.
But none of these proposals
will do very much good until
the corporation laws themselves
have been overhauled to get out

shot-guns, blaekjacks and other
gadeets used to hold up the pub
lie and the stockholders.
