When there's something wrong
with you, the first rule is: get at
the cause. If you are constipated.
don't endure it first and cure 1t
afterward. Find out what's giving
you the trouble.
Chances are it's simple II you
eat the super-refined foods most
people do: meat, white bread,
potatoes. It's likely you don't get
enough bulk" And bulk" doesn't
mean a lot of food. It's a kind of
food that isn't consumed in the
body, but leaves a soft bulky"
mass in the intestineS and helps
a bowel movement.
If this is your trouble. you
should eat a natural bulk" pro-
ducing food-such a one as the
crunchy, toasted, ready-to-eat
cereal-Kellogg's All-Bran. ALL

direct productive mechanisns at the
rate of four billions worth a year,
or thereabouts. Over a period Of
years, he concluded, the Govern
ment would gradually come to own
most of the productive plants In the
United States.
Strange as it may seem to Ameri-
cans, that was exactly what was
proposed when the spending lending
program was first suggested to the
Congress. The recommendation was
made that this type of lending
spending be made permanent pol
icy OF the Government. The first
draft of this bill itself provided for
a revolving fund to carry out this
purpose. Thanks to determined
congressional opposition, it was
eliminated before the measure was
finally killed by the House."
Blow at Cheap Money"
Representative Martin said defeat
of the lending bill also was a blow
against the evils of cheap money,
which have resulted from the Gov
ernment's ever-increasing borrow
lngs." He added that, prior to the
New Deal, savings banks generally
paid 4 per cent interest on deposits,
but that this rate had declined pro-
gressively almost to the vanishing
point.

what this had cost 100000 de-
positors in savings banks; what it
had cost 100000 holders of life

Representative Martin of Massa-

leader. said last night Congress had
saved the Nation from the danger of
"state capitalism or socialism" He
pledged his party to battle New
Deal socialism" relentlessly in the
future.
In a radio address Representative
Martin said the defeat of the Presi-

was "the greatest blow struck for
the Democratic ideal and for the
preservation of our American heri-
tage of political and economic free
dom since the defeat of the subver-
sive court-packing bill"
Mr.. Martin declared the admin
tstration leadership had carefully
set the stage for introduction of the
big lending bill through testimony
presented at the hearings by the
Temporary National Economic Mo-
nopoly Committee.
Gist of Testimony.
THE gist of the testimony of New

our traditional system of free econ

incurred with reference to ocean

derived from the operation of
steamships which would be forced
to discontinue amounted in 1898 to

in mind that the shipping business,
being highly competitive, cannot be
dropped and re-entered at will.
Losses will be sustained in rebuild
ing and establishing trade routes
when once discontinued. Another
item of loss would be the lay-up

must also be considered. Amortiza-
ton payments and interest on mort
cages to be paid by the owners add
another substantial loss. Shipyards
and shipbuilding would suffer by
reason of lack of demand for the
construction of ships at a time when
ships are idle.
EXPORT Trade.
We thus see in the rough the
sacrifices which we are making with
respect to American shipping inter-
ests. 1t is we'll now to advert to the
sacrifices in commerce and general
business of the people Of the United
States. Normally our exports repre-
sent about 10 per cent of the value
of the movable goods produced by
the United States and the state of
our national economy is, in a large
measure, determined by our ability
to sell this surplus in the foreign
market. In 1888 it is estimated that
8 per cent of our total production
was exported to foreign countries.
The fact that foreign markets were
able to absorb 10 per cent of our
total production in 1888 was a
sustaining influence on United
States production, and the ability
to export this 10 per cent may mean
the difference between prosperity
and depression in the United States.
In 1888 exports amounted to $3,094,-
100000 while imports amounted to
81 1861 100000. OF course. if we do
not import from foreign nations they
will not be able to buy our cotton,
tobacco, grains. oil, iron, steel and
other commodities that 60 to make
up so much of our national economy.
We have been exporting 80 per cent
OF aircraft and parts except engines,
305 per cent of American cotton,
20 per cent of American tobacco,
and varying percentages of our
principal commodities. 1t was esti-
mated that in 1886 the amount of
time devoted to producing and ex-
port represented the equivalent of
the full-time services of 1000 900
workers. not including the thousands
engaged in transportation, banking,
brokerage, insurance, advertising,
merchandising and other services.
Indirectly, more than 100000 ad-

American combination or passenger
ships of about 100000 gross tons
must be withdrawn from their pres
ent service. American ships on
Pacific routes and routes to Central
and South America may continue
to operate unless they should fall
within a combat area which might
be prescribed by the President under
the act.
1t is estimated that between 165
and ITO American dry cargo COM
bination or passenger ships of about
100000 gross tons could continue
to operate in foreign trade, though
large number of them would be
adversely affected. Uncertainty as
to such operations depends upon
whether or not combat areas, rot
now foreseen, might be imposed;
for instance. if combat areas should
be prescribed at point which would
prohibit entry into the Mediter-
ranean. 20 vessels of 100000 gross
tons would Immediately be with
drawn and seven other vessels of
$4,000 gross tons would have to
change their routing

drawn, more than AZ per cent by
number and "A per cent by ton
mage of the American flag active
foreign trade fleet could no longer
operate on the present trade routes.
Trade With Orient on.
In view of these facts it becomes
important to consider the possible
ity for rerouting American vessels
Withdrawn from their present serv-
ices and placing them in services
to non-belligerent countries and
possessions. 1t is hoped that many
of these vessels may be diverted to
South and Central American trade
and to trade in the Pacific and the
Orient. So far few foreign vessels
have been withdrawn from the
South American trade Trans-Pa-
cific trade with the Orient has de-
clined during the last year but it
is anticipated that belligerent ships
may. to some extent, at least, be
withdrawn from that area. In that
event there may be some opportu-
nifty for increasing our shipping in
the Pacific and in the Orient.
During the past two years the
Maritime Commission, whose func-
ton it is to aid in building an
American merchant marine and in
maintaining and promoting it, has
ordered the construction, in con-
junction with private operators, of
129 new vessels of more than
million tons. Twenty-Five of these
already have been launched. The
Government and shipowners are
investing about $500 100000 in these
129 new vessels. They are only
part of an orderly long range re-
placement program involving a total
of 500 new ships to be constructed
over period of 10 years at
cost of $l,250,000 The effect of
the new act upon this program is
also of vital interest
1t must be borne in mind that
the withdrawal of 100 American
flag vessels will entail losses to
