MAKES SPECIAL TRIP TO TOWN TO THANK RETONGA “It Acted More Like A Miracle Than A Medicine,” She States Thousands of people all over Indiana are enthusiastically praising the wonderful health-building benefits of Retonga. Many of these now well and happy men and women had almost given up hope of T flkik • MRS. MARY HARRELL being well again when they started on this remarkable new medicine. Take for instance, Mrs. Mary Harrell, 916 South Warman St., Indianapolis, who made a special trip to town to thank Retonga for the splendid health tTTs. famous medicine had brought her. “For a year I had stomach trouble so bad that even the lightest foods fermented and filled my stomach with gas until it was painful to take a deep breath,” declared Mrs. Harrell. “I had to continually dose with laxatives and my kidneys gave me no rest at night. Pains like neuritis in my arms ad shoulders made it impossible for me to do my housework for days at a time. Retonga acted more likfi a miracle than a medicine. I now eat ravenously of everything on the table, and don’t have a trace of indigestion, pains or any other trouble left. A month ago it would have been impossible for me to come to town, but I came today especially to thank Retonga and let other sufferers know what it has done in my case.” You can obtain Retonga at Holthouse Drug Co. advt.

ASSAIL EXTRA SESSION PLAN Two G. (), P. Leaders Attack Special Session Os Legislature Indianapolis, June 1. (U.R) -Two Republican chieftains today attacked Gov. M. Clifford Townsend's plan to summon a special session of the Indiana legislature to ap priate funds for an $8,000,000 institutional building program. Arch N. Bobbitt, chairman of the Republican state central committee, declared that the governor's plan "is proof of the fact that the collection of more taxes than are necessary for the regular functions of government is dangerous.” "If the state had not accumulated a surplus of some $27,000,000 Gov. Townsend would not have been faced with the irresiatable temptation to spend the money for a building to house more state employes," he said. James M. Knapp of Hagerstown, minority leader in the house of representatives, accused Townsend of inaugurating the building program because this is an election year. He declared there were as many unemployed a year ago but that no mention was made of a

work program at that time. Townsend plans to ask ti’.e legislature to appropriate $4,400,000 from the general fund. An additional $3,600,000 would be sought from the public works administration as soon as President Roosevelt's new work relief program Is enacted by congress. He explained that the special session will be called so Indiana may take advantage of the new federal funds. The session probably will he held the week of June 20. The program contemplates construction of a now state office building, a now tuberculosis hospital and additions to the various state hospitals and the state fair grounds. o -- Logansport Youth Critically Hurt Logansport, Ind., June 1.- f((J.R> — Robert Hanson, 16-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Bert Kelly, remained In a critical condition at a hospital here today suffering from injuries sustained late yesterday when he lost control of his automobile and it crashed into a utility pole.
