people, rich or poor, without charge.
Wilmington, he pointed out, is
one of the few cities in the state
which does not now have an iron
lung. He pointed out also that when
one is needed, it is needed lmme-
diately and there is no time in which
to purchase one or to have it ship
ped to the city.
The lung, he said, will be available
for use for all persons whose respir-
atory systems are inadequate or in
active . such as persons afflicted
with infantile paralysis, drowned or
s~uffocated persons.
The iron lung, or r~espirator, first
became famous when used to treat
Fred Snite, infantile paralysis vic
tim, who has travelled far and wide
in his '1ung." Besides being used for
treatment of infantile paralysis, it
may also be used in cases of gas
poisoning, electric shock, alcoholic
coma, drug poisoning and temporary
respiratory failure due to injuries
to the spinal cord.

PORTLAND, Ore, Feb. 5.-CP-
The administrator Of Bonneville

electric power project on the broad
Columbia river, looked ahead today
to Pacific northwest expansion
through new industries.
Paul j. Raver, in his annual re-
port to Secretary of the Interior
Ickes, said signed contracts would
yield nearly 81, 600, 900 for
the fiscal year 1910 and S2,2oo,OOo
for the fiscal year 1871. The Alumni
mum Corporation of America, a
Pittsburgh firm which will erect a
plant near Vancouver, Wash, Will
guarantee the government $4,000
900 over a 20-year period.
Feasibility studies indicate that
if the wholesale rates are main
tanned, the government would re-
cover within Is years of the COM
p1etion of all power generating
units in Bonneville dam not only
the full investment allocated by the
federal power commission to pow
er production, but also interest at
3 IL per cent" the report said.
Raver, commenting on a growing
scarcity of h~ydro-electric sites in
other sections of the country, stat
ed that more than so inquiries had

MCDONALD MOT
BACKING GRADY
Political Leader Says He
Will Reveal Position
On Race Soon

RALEIGH, Feb. 8. -P- Dr.
Ralph W. Mcdonald Of Winston
Salem, who ran for governor OF
North Carolina in 1886 vi tonlght
his "organization' was not X
the gubernatorial candidacy OF Faul
d. Grady of Kenly.
Grady and Mcdonald, close per
sonal friends, ran in the democratic
primaries of 1886 on what gener-
s1lv was considered the same tick
et." Mcdonald was defeated for gov
ernor in the second primary by Clyde
r. Hoey of Shelby, and Grady was
defeated for lieutenant governor in
the second primary by W. P. Hor-
ton of Pittsboro.
Mcdonald claimed tonight, how
ever, that Grady actually did not
support him in the first primary OF
1886, and added that he did not know
whom Grady supported in the Sec
ond primary. .
Mcdonald has told friends he Will
back J. M. Broughton of Raleigh IN
the democratic gubernatorial prl-
maries this year.
Reached by telephone in Salisbury,
Mcdonald said:
paul Grady is not my candidate
for governor. The Mcdonald organl-
cation is not responsible for his can
didacy. I do not know of any state
leader in our group who is support
ing Paul.
I'm fact Grady told us repeatedly
that he did not want to rum, and
we advised him strongly not to be
a candidate.
st believe that most of u or
ganization is standing together IN
the governorship race. Our position
will be made clear later on, but we
are not backing the Grady candl-
dacy.
I'VE have no obligation to sup
port Grady. We supported him Tor
lieutenant governor in 1886, and we
believe that our support was largely
responsible for his big vote. But
Grady did not support me in the
first primary and I do not know
whom he supported in the second
primary.
"Sorry'
II like Paul personally very much.
I am sorry that I cannot support
him."
Mcdonald withdrew from politics
following his defeat by Governor
Hoey and entered a sa%natorium for
treatment of tuberculosis. He was
released from the sanatorium last
year and was appointed assistant
director of the extension division at
the University Of Forth Carolina.
Grady was not reached for a state
ment.

Why Envy A Steak
When Ealing Spinach?

Here is good news for many who
suffer stomach or ulcer pains due to
excess acid. It has been found that
bismuth coats the stomach lining on
the sensitive parts, thus preventing
the irritating action of digestive
secretions and foods. 1t enables
many to eat hard-to-digest foods,
such as steaks and corn beef and
cabbage without after : irritation.
Udga Tablets contain bismuth and
other valuable ingredients in a bal
anced formula. They have been
praised by thousands. Try a Csc
box Of Udga for relief of ulcer and
stomach pains, Indigestion, gas

was the first company t o pay a minimum wage, beginning in 1914, at the
then astounding figure of S. a day. That was double the prevailing wage Of
