A CLEAR COMPLEXION Ruddy cheeks —spagkling eyes—most women can have. Dr. F. M. Edwards for 20 years treated scores of women for liver and bowel ailments. During these years he gave his patients a substitute for calomel made of a few wellknown vegetable ingredients mixed with olive oil, naming them Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets. Know them by their olive color. These tablets are wonder-workers on the liver and bowels, which cause a normal action, carrying off the waste and poisonous matter in one's system.

Left to right: Leona Carnahan, Margaret Rickenback, Hazel MacKamey, Geraldine Hatfield—they all have r a reason for the way they dress their hair.
BY ELDORA FIELD V To grow or not to grow? That is the questionJust when everybody thought the bobbed hair question was settled forever and that in a few years a woman with long hair would be as much of a curiosity as a chestnut horse, somebody started the ball rolling the other way. Most of the hair dressers say the ball won’t roll very far; that bobbed hair in spite bf any opposition will never go out. Opponents, however, say that history repeats itself and that no fashion, no matter how pop-
Gilliom Shows Democrat-Klan Hookup
Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliom today sent R. Earl Peters, Democratic State chairman, a detailed “bill of particulars” tending to show that both the Ku-Klux and the Anti-Saloon League had been active in Democratic circles. In his letter, the attorney general again invites Peters to join him in a denunciation of these forces of super-government in the coming campaign. Gilliom's letter follows: “Oct. 3, 1927. “R. Earl Peters, “Chairman Democratic State Central Committee, “Ft. Wayne, Ind. “Dear sir: I am advised that in your speech at Brookville, Sept. 30, you demanded that I furnish the bill of particulars which I said, in my Terre Haute speech of Sept. 27, could be furnished to show contact between the forces of super-govern-ment with the Democratic party. I shall comply. “You are under the erroneous impression that’ I sought to saddle super-government by the leaders of the Anti-Saioon League and the Ku-Klux Klan on the Democratic party. That was wholly unnecessary on my part, for these forces saddled themselves on both parties long before I made the Terre Haute speech. In that speech I said: “ ‘ln fairness to both parties in Indiana, let it be said that neither invited the organization of these groups, they came in spite of political parties.’ “I also said: “ ‘Government in Indiana and the people of Indiana, mflst be released from the grip of supergovernment that has been fastening on them. The task is plainly one for the Republican party. The silence of all prominent Democrats: on this subject and every other indication points to an avoidance of this issue by our Democratic friends.’ Charges Evasion “Frankly, after you became audible, I tried to get you to name the Anti-Saloon League and the KuKlux Klan and urge your party to declare against dominating and secret control of politics and government by them in the hope that both parties might enter the next campaign united on the necessity of destroying these controlling influences, so as to restore genuine representative government and thereby re-establish Indiana in the good graces of the whole country. “So far you have evaded the question of whether you would do that. “In the hope that you will become aware of the need of your party to take such position if it would be a free political agency in the next campaign and that you will urge it to take that position, I now furnish a partial bill of particulars. Supplements will be furnished if you need them. Dominated by League “1. Democratic candidates, both local and State, also congressional, during many elections, including the last, have been presented with binding questionnaires by the head of the Anti-Saloon League and have been subjected consistently to fear of defeat by him and under that fear have been demanded by him to give the kind of answers required by him if they would have his support or avoid his active opposition. “Many of your candidates, as shown by the files of the American Issue, while cringing under this intolerant influence of super-govern-ment made written promises to the leader of this organization which were incompatible with the essence of representative government. “2. In 1924 your Democratic can-

ular, never has remained indefinitely. Anyway, a well defined movement among the women to grow their hair has been observed lately. Those who have studied the tendency say that it is chiefly prevalent among the college girls “and youngsters who never had long hair and want to see how it feels,” said a beauty
operator at the Powder Puff shop. “It’s just a fad, though, and will pass.” “I think this fad is a short-lived one, but we’ve noticed it,” said Paul Korby of the Paul Beauty shop. “It’s probably a slight protest against the standardization the bob
didate for judge of the Supreme Court, opposing Justice Willoughby, made his peace and had the combined support of the Anti-Saloon League and the Ku-Klux Klan, so that he ran more than 100,000 votes ahead of Dr. McCulloch, candidate for Governor on the same ticket. “3. Again, in 1926, the Democratic candidate for judge of the Supreme Court, opposing Justice Travis, had the support of the super-government 100 per cent in its effort to control the court and its decisions. Many other illustrations can be furnished. Barred Medicinal Liquor “4. Questionnaire-signing Legislators, including many Democratic members, performing under the lash’i of super-government, voted to deny the people medicinal liquor under all circumstances without regard to the honest need for it under the honest judgment of physicians and thus sought to abridge the constitutional and inalienable right to pursue life itself in instances when medicinal liquor is essential in the effort to save life. “This caused the president of the Indiana State Medical Association, Dr. F. W. Cregor, to say to the association on Sept. 29, last, that this statutory prohibition of medicinal liquor i^ . . . unjust, unnecessary, contrary to public policy, a violation of basic principle and a direct insult to the medical profession.’ “I have urged a Republican Governor to recommend to the next. Legislature, which will have some Democratic members, an amendment to this statute so as to have it conform to the Volstead law, which permits medicinal liquor. “Will you also urge jn the Democratic party that this tyrannical, super - governmental interference with the most fundamental natural right be eliminated, since Democratic Legislators responding to the will of super-government, helped to enact it. Klan Influence Shown “1. Every one knows that Klan political activities originated in the South and first operated in southern Democracy. And Senator Heflin

institutes. The college girls seem to to be most interested in growing their hair.” Miss Geraldine Hatfield, of Shelbyville, in Indianapolis today admitted it took her “about an hour” to “do” her long hair. She said, as did Miss Hazel McKamey, 36 W. Vermont St., that she “wanted her hair dress to be different and felt the bobs all looked a good deal alike.” Miss Margaret Rickenback, 1059 S. Warman Ave-, said she had let her hair grow in again "because bobbed hair is not as becoming to me. It’s more convenient, but I’m willing to take the extra trouble for more individuality.”
only recently toured Indiana to give impetus to the Klan movement among Democrats, for the purpose of creating Democratic opposition in Indiana to A1 Smith as a prospective candidate for the nomination for President at the approaching Democratic national convention. “2. A Democratic mayor of Evansville embarked Stephenson in Klan activities among southern Indiana Democrats for the purpose of enabling him to carry out his intentions of becoming the Democratic candidate for Governor. Thus, the Klan was introduced into Indiana by a Democrat, employing a southern Democrat, to organize Democrats into a Klan organization for exclusively Democratic political purposes. “3. In 1922, the only Democratic candidates elected on a State-wide vote, namely, United States Senator, auditor of State and clerk of the Supreme Court, had the unquestioned support of the Klan. Given Klux Support “4. In 1924 you had many Klux delegates in your State convention. Four candidates for State offices there nominated, viz. for judge of the Supreme Court, treasurer of State, auditor of State and attorney general, had the organized support of the Klan throughout the State and they ran more than 100,000 votes ahead of the candidate for Governor on the same ticket. “5* In the 1924 national Democratic convention, Indiana Democrats treated with Wizard Evans and southern Klux delegates for support for their candidate for President. “6. In 1925 Stephenson played a part in arranging conditions on which the bolting Democratic Senators of the Indiana Senate returned to their duties from Dayton, Ohio. “7. In the 1926 election the organized Klux vote supported the Democratic candidates for treasurer

of State and clerk of the Supreme Court. Refused to Commit Self "8. In the 1926 election the Democratic candidate for Senator, opposing Senator Watson, carried most of the counties where the Klux were strong and he never mentioned them publicly, though importuned, while Senator Watson denied publicly under oath that he belonged to them. I suggest no inference that the Democratic candidate did belong, but it was plain that he was not alienating their support. “9. In many counties normally Republican, the Democratic county tickets won in 1924 and 1926 with the aid of the Klan. “10. Right now the principal Klan activities are among the Democratic voters for the purpose of creating opposition within the party to the nomination of A1 Smith for President. That is why Senator Heflin toured Indiana recently and addressed Klan gatherings. “These particulars could be multiplied in number. If you need more, I can furnish them'. It would seem queer if these super-government groups would overlook the Democratic party. “If they think your party has a chance to win the next election they most assuredly will attempt to direct Democratic affairs, so they will have them in control. Urges Firm Stand “The very important consideration is whether these influences will continue to dominate and influence our politics and government. It should be made certain that they cannot and the only way to be certain is for both parties to take a firm position against such domination and secret influences. “I have urged that the Republicans meet this issue boldly and intelligently. Is it asking too much of you to name these groups and urge your party to do likewise? And there should be no hesitancy to name Wizard Evans if you do. Those In prison can do no harm, but those at large can. “Patriotically yours, "ARTHUR L. GILLIOM. FAG THEORY RAPPED Coffee Worse Than Smokes for Babes, Says Medics. Bi/ Timex Special PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 3.—Babies born of coffee-drinking mothers are more likely to be unhealthy than those born of cigaret-smoking mothers, in the opinion of Dr. Frank Hammond Krusen, associate dean of the School of Medicine of i Temple University. Taking issue with the recent j statement made by Dr. Charles L. j Barber of Lansing, Mich., before j the annual convention of the Amer- i ican Association of Medico-Physical j Research that 60 per cent of all ! babies born of cigaret-smoking ! mothers die before they reach the : age of 2, Dr. Krusen asserts that the caffein in coffee is far more injurious than the nicotine in tobacco in such circumstances. ‘‘Dr. Barber's statement,” said Dr. Krusen, “inclines toward the ridiculous. I know many instances of thoroughly healthy children of mothers who smoked cigarets incessantly.”
MEXICAN LABOR SHOWS WAY TO GREAT REFORM Old Revolt Order Passing, Pay and Living Conditions Grow Better. Anew Mexico is in the making. For good or ill. her fortunes and America’s arc intricably bound together. As labor is one of the greatest influences in Mexico todav. Chester M. Wright, formerly English language secretary of the Pan American Federation of Labor, has been asked by The Times to write a series of articles on the trend of modern Mexico as he sees it. This is the first of the series. BY CHESTER M. WRIGHT WASHINGTON, Oct. 3—l have just come back from Mexico City, where I attended the convention of the Mexican Federation of Labor. In considering the future of Mexico and the manner in which she will weather the coming elections, there is no force more important to consider. The Mexican Federation of Labor three million strong, is the one truly national movement in the republic. This was the eighth convention, but there were 2,800 delegates. Something of what lias been happening in Mexico was made evident by the changed dress and manner of the delegates. There were fewer sandals and more shoes, fewer overalls and more suits of clothes, fewer o fthe great sombreros and more American-made hats than in previous conventions. Living standards among the workers of Mexico are rising. Personal Leadership Passing But important even above an improved and improving economic status for the workers is the fact that here is one national movement, one great force that does not follow blindly a persona! leadership. Personal leaderships have been a good deal of a curse in Mexico, and in other Spanish-speaking countries. Untutored masses following selfish or corrupt leaders have formed many a "revolutionary” or rebellious movement. But this is not now the case with the Mexvican Federation. It is a United power, ably led, seeking better wages, better homes, better working conditions, and anew fundamental relationship between employer and worker. Win Better Wages These unions have fought for and defended improvements for workers in Mexico- Machinists now get from $5.50 to $6 a day in Mexico. They believe they get this wage because of what they always call “the revolution” and their unions. They will fight for those two things and for I nothing else. That means that they don’t care about personally owned j armies any more. This is important for Americans J to know, because American news-1 paper men gave the convention no attention whatever and in their sur-1 veys of various political moves and

Three million men are moving pretty much away from the old idea of giving loyalty to whichever chieftain promises the most good jobs and colorful generalships. No Longer Adventurers When Adolfo de la Huerta revolted, guns were placed in the hands of 18,000 union members for defense of the nation. They became a part of the army, then went back to their jobs. Followers of personal leaders in the old days did not go back to their jobs. They went to their new-found graft. This national movement is a combination of that and a hope and fireside movement, because there is a determination that selfish ambitions of this or that "general” neither shall wreck the natonal unity nor destroy the new wage levels and better working conditionsThree million men knit together in unions have demonstrated that they stand as a unit and that they place Mexico above whatever ambitious leaders and movements there may be in Mexico—and there are plenty.
