but to enable those attending to
keep up with the latest safety de-
velopments in the field, we may re-

in safe operation.
The North Carolina Truck Own

to be congratulated for the con-
sistent efforts which they are
making to have commercial truck
operation set the standard of safety
for the entire State. There is not
meeting called to which the truck
operators are invited that they do
not attend in large numbers. There
is every indication among them OF
growing interest in safer trans
Dortation.

move. So you need both Pepsin to help
break up fast that rich undigestedf food in
your stomach, and Laxative SIENNA to pull
the trigger on those lazy bowels. So be
sure your laxative also contains Pepsin.
Take Dr.. Caldwell's Laxative, because its

SIENNA moves your bowels. Tests prove the
power of Pepsin to dissolve those Jumps of

in your stomach, to cause belching, gastric

distress. At the same time this medicine
wakes up lazy nerves and muscles in your

INSPECTED TODAY

RALEIGH, FEB. 5.-tR-C. B.
Taylor, bridge and maintenance en-
gineer Of the Highway and Public
Works commission, surveyed the
ice-damaged Wright Memorial
bridge today to determine what may
be done about repairing or replac.
ing it.
W. L. Craven, senior bridge engi-
neer, said his latest report had it
that ice in Currituck sound had
taken out two or more spans and
pushed aside IS to 100 piles. The ice
is still around the structure and
may cause further damage.
1.-THE full amount of the damage
cannot be determined until the ice
has broken up and moved away
from the BRIDGE" commented W.
Vance Baise, chief highway engi.
neer. "A lot will depend on which
way the wind blows and how hard
at the time the ice really breaks
up"
Baise, just back from Chicago,
said reports about plans for a new
+ idge to replace the Wright struc-
ture, bought by the state in 1885 for
$4,000, had not been completed,
but that preliminary surveys indi-
Gated a new crossing of Currituck
sound would cost 100000. He said
information given out in his absence
about plans for a new bridge went
a little too far"
1.-THE big thing in the way" said
Baise, "is that we have no money
for a new bridge there. Even with
federal aid, it would take more
state money for a new bridge than
has been allocated in the construc.
