 But Ward was hailed as King elect as 5000 members of the Gypsy bands who roam the country in caravans, mending pots and pans and ceiling horses and goats. col lected at Connemara for corona tion ceremony tomorrow night.
 In secret preliminary contests of drinking, fighting and boasting-in which anyone who got drunk or fell asleep was eliminated-candi- dates for the past two weeks have we'd for the title of king. With it goes the right to free meals and free drinks anywhere ' in the kingdom" a gift of four horses and the best of the Gypsy cara vans, and the choice of Tinker colleens as a bride.
 The contest finalists were Ward and Dodd. Somehow Ward man. aged to prove he ranked highest for ability to take drink like a gentleman, for physical strength, and for the record in settling quarrels among the tribes" But all tribal ceremonies wore strictly se- cret and even the coronation will be closed to the public.

Poor Digestion? G1 T1 :.
 Headachy? 00 Sour or Upset? 00 Tired-lstIess? %

Do you feel headachy and upset due to poorly digested food? To feel cheerful and happy again your food must be, digested properly.
 Each day, Nature must produce about two pints of vital digestive juice to help digest your food. If Nature fails, your food may remain undigested- leaving you headachy and irritable.
 Therefore, you must increase the flow of this digestive juice. Carter's Little Liver Pills increase this flow quickly often in as little as 80 minutes. And, you're on the road to feeling better.
 Don't depend on artificial aids to counteract indigestion-when Carter's Little Liver Pills aid digestion after Na- ture's own order. Take Carter's Little Liver Pills as directed. Get them at any drugstore. Only 25f.

NLRb HEARING
Asked On Two
National Cases

- WASHINGTON, D. c. A request
that the National Labor Relations
Board grant oral hearings in two
cases, LaruS and Brother, Company
Inc. and General Motors Corp, was
filed October 1 by Judge William
H. HASTE in behalf of the Natiolal
Lawyers Guild ana the NAACP.
In the LaruS case. involving to-
bacco workers in Richmond, Va,
the NIRB has given joint certifi-
cation to two racially segregated
local unions, one composed Of white
workers and the other of Negro
workers.
In the General Motors case there
is motion pending to rescind the
certification of racially segregated
local. Judge Hastie's letter said:
CRITICAL STAGE
"These two cases bring to a criti-
cal stage the question of the status
to be accorded labor organizations
which seek the statutory benefits
of the National Labor Relations Act
and at the same time discriminate
against workers because of race or
color. This Board permitted the
National Association for the Adj
vancement of Coiored People to
file a brief and to be heard when
one aspect of this nationally impor-
tant controversy was before the
Board in the Bethlehem Alameda
Shipyard, Inc, Case No. R-5693
The interest and concern of the
Association has been expressed to
the Board in subsequent case. More
over, with increasing demand for
the amendment of the National
Labor Relations Act, the Associa-
ton is concerned that the effective
ness of the present act not be weak
ened by construction inconsistent
with its purpose.
"The National Lawyers Guild was
heard as friend of the Board in
an earlier stage of the LARUS
caes. It's interest and concern are
even greater now than then be-
cause of the decision rendered by
the Board in this case"
