Do you have headaches? Do you lack pep or vim? Do you get irritable easily! Do you feel depressed -nervous !

Everybody knows that poorly digested food often causes a headachy, sluggish condition.
 But you may not know that Nature must produce each day about two pints of the vital digestive juice-liver bile to help digest your food.
 If Nature fails-food doesn't digest properly-you may get irregular. And the amount of this vital digestive juice may be still further reduced. Thus, digestive upset and sluggishness can follow each other in vicious circle that keeps you feeling rotten. Therefore, take Carter's Little Liver Pills because they start bile flowing quickly-often within thirty min utes. When bile flow increases-you may help your digestion. You're on your way to feeling grand all over again. Remember you can't get these same results from laxa- tives that fail to stimulate the flow of bile.
 If you feel headachy, listless, irritable or depressed, get a 25e package of Carter's Little Liver Pills at any drugstore today. Take as directed. Tomorrow see how fit and alive you'll feel!

1000 BOMBERS TURNED OUT AT
 WILLOW RUN
By ANTHONY C. DE LORENZO United Press Stan Correspondent

| NOS~N AAcSS OsNA OOtEcSpOu0enLl
 Detroit, Dec. g. CUP) - Henry Ford's conviction that bombers, like automobiles, can be built in quan- tity on a progressive assembly line is proving itself daily at Willow Run, key plant in America's war effort.
 The giant arsenal is doing so well that the War Department has per- mitted the Ford Company to make its first official announcement of production figures.
 The company disclosed that more than 1000 four-engined B-24 bom- bers have been flown away from Willow Run during the last year Moreover, 1t said that substantial numbers" of complete B-24 sub assemblies had been shipped from the $6o000,000 plant during the same period for final assembly else where.
 The plant, ground for which was broken in April, 1941, has hit its stride after overcoming difficult en- gineering and manpower problems which threatened for time to disrupt the project. In fact, many critics insisted there were too many obstacles and the plant was doomed to failure.
 However, Ford frequently reiter- ated that "all 1t takes is a little time" Willow Runs current pro- duction rate proves his diagonsis was correct.
 Assembly-line produ tion of i bombers by Ford was hampered at first by frequent design changes. an enormous turnover among trained personnel and an abnormal rate of absenteeism, especially during the severe cold wave last winter.
 Although design changes dictated by battlefront strategy the. un- avoidable, the manpower problems have been alleviated by the War Manpower Commissions job-stab- ilization plan, provision of addi- tional housing for Willow Run workers. and by transferring some of the manufacturing operations to Ford's River Rouge, Highland Park and Lincoln plants.
 The decentralization program feeding of bomber parts into Will low Run from other Ford plants has been a major contribution to success of the project.
 Ford laready has announced plans to utilize his knowledge of big plane production. He said he will build giant, multiple-engine cargo passenger planes "of unique design" at Willow Run after the war.
 Ford and his associates, includ- ing Charles A. Lindbergh, flyer and ! consultant to the 80-year-old man. ufacturer, are trying to design plane which will not need long run ways for take-of and landing, and will be less expensive to operate than present cargo planes.

REQUEST RULING
 ON JURISDICTION
Federal Power Commits sion, C. L. &P. Co. Before
 U. s. Court of Appeals

The case involving the Federal Power Commission and the Con- necticut Light & Power company now being argued in the United States Court of Appeals in Wash ington, D. C., involves solely the question of jurisdiction of the com- mission over the company. The purpose of the hearing was outlined by President c. L. Campbell of the c. L. & P. Company in the following statement:
 The Federal Power Commission claims that the company is subject to it's jurisdiction on several grounds. The principle claim of the Commission Is that the Connecticut Power Company, from which the Connecticut Light and Power Con- pany purchases its power require ments for Bristol, and in the past has purchased 1t for other sections, obtained power from companies out side of the State of Connecticut and that part of this power generated outside of the State of Connecticut found is way into the facilities of the Connecticut Light and Power Company at Bristol and other points. The Commission claimed that the facilities at Bristol and these other points were used in the transmission of interstate power. and that therefore the Connecticut Light and Power Company was sub- ject to the jurisdict'cn O. the com- mission.
 The Federal Power Commission itself held hearings in July, 1941 and as result of those hearings de- termined, on May 15, 1942. that the Company was subject to its j"ris- diction. The case now being argued was the Company's petition to re- view and set aside the order of the Commission making this determina- fiOn

Already there are detailed and workable plans for placing veterans in jobs, teaching the disabled to earn living despite their handi- caps, helping young men to resume an interrupted education, assisting veterans to cash in on new, service taught skills. But until these plans are joined with those for industrial reconversion and readjustment, the job problem will not be solved.

1t is close Whether North should
pass three spades or go on to game,
and whether South makes three or
four will depend on the alertness
of the defense.
Assuming the opening lead of the
heart ten, dummys king falls to
East's ace. If East returns a heart,
South rufs and leads a trump. West
will probably pass one round and win
the ace on the second lead, return
ing another heart to force South
again. Now South leads a club.
West ducks, and dummy wins the
queen. South can make his con-
tract any of three ways. He can
take the diamond finesse to his jack,
or If he plays the diamond ace and
leads another club toward dummy
he will win the hand whether or
not West takes his ace. Dummys
king will drop East's Jack, and
South can come back to his hand
with a trump to lead another club
up to dummy's ten.
South can be defeated, only if East
returns a club Immediately on win
ming the first heart, later getting a
club ruff when West gets in with
the spade ace.

years go by, as is the case with most
kinds of deer. Only in very few
cases have sambar antlers with more
than three points been found.
Forests and wooded hills are the
homes of sambar deer. They are
shy animals, and spend most of their
daylight hours resting in deep shade.
At night they browse on grass and
whatever other plant food they may
find.
The hill districts Of India have
sambar deer, and they also Craze on
the lower slopes of the Himalaya
Mountains. Sometimes they are
found at points a mile and a half
above sea level. ~
In past times the sambar was
hunted with packs of dogs. When
the animal was brought to bay, the
hunter would strike it down with
spear instead Of shooting It.
Sir Samuel Baker tells of a hunt
OF that kind which came to a
strange end. He says that his
hounds drove a stag to a large rock
at the edge of high, steep cliff. The
stag lowered his head and fought of
the yelping pack as well as possible,
but at last gave up the fight. Turn
ing away from the dogs, he plunged
to his death over the precipice.
Hunting with the spear has gone
out of fashion in India, as elsewhere,
but sportsmen still go forth to kill
the sambar. Often they employ
beaters who round up one or more
animals, and frighten them until
they run within range of the
hunters rifle. Now and then a stag
escapes this fate by turning back
and running right through the line
of beaters.
We have no sambar deer in the
forests Of this continent, but some
museums have groups Of them on
display. The Field Museum in
Chicago has a lifelike group made
up OF stag, doe and a fawn at
a salt-lick.
