FLOOD RELIEF PLANS CLASH; GOVERNOR ACTS Arkansas Executive Favors War Department Ideas; Calls Conference. BY PAUL R. MALLON United Press Staff Correspondent ARKANSAS CITY, Ark., Oct. 21. In an apparent effort to forestall the Lowden, Missouri, and other individual plans of flood relief, Governor John E. Martineau of Arkansas today issued a call for a meeting of his tri-State flood relief committee in New Orleans next Sunday. Martineau has pledged himself to support the War Departmet plan now being worked out by Army engineers and he wants the flood region invited so there will be no division of sentiment when that plan is presented to Congress in December. The Democratic Governor made this announcement of allegiance to the War Department following publication of the so-called Missouri plan for raising $1,000,000,000 from the treasury surplus and a bond issue to harness the waters of the Mississippi and within a few hours after former Governor Frank O. Lowden had made a speech in Memphis urging appointment of anew government mixed commission to handle flood control, with particular attention to water power, agricultural and reforestation problems Involved. Two Aims Outlined Without mentioning the Missoui br Lowden plans, but obviously aiming at them, Martineau made his new-fctatement of policy at a banquet given Secretary of War Davis last night at Little Rock. He amplified it today in an interview with the United Press. “There are only two things which we of the flood regions will insist upon,” Martineau said. “One is that the Federal Government assume responsibility for control not only of the Mississippi, but

Gas would form in my stomach and I became so terribly bloated that I could hardly breathe. My throat was raw and irritated, owing to undigested food, which • raised into my throat. Nearly everything I ate would sour and ferment, so my food did me no good at all. My blood was in bad condition, and this caused my skin to break out. "I began taking Konjola, and this medicine gave me wonderful relief from the stomach trouble, and I never bloat up with gas or have indigestion pains like I used to. My appetite is increased and my skin is cleared up. This Konjola has changed my whole physical condition, so that my digestion is better than it has been in years, and I seem to feel good all the time. I am indorsing this medicine to help others who are suffering.” The Konjola Man is at Hook’s -ug store, Illinois and Washington fcj., Indianapolis, where he is daily feting the local public and inducing and explaining the merits of >jis remedy.

POOR FACILITIES !N ARMY CAMPS KNOWNTO U. S. Coolidge Annoyed at Thing Congress Fought Over Many Months. BY LEO R. SACK WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.—Discussion of inadequate army housing facilities by Maj. Gen. Charles P. Summerall, during a recent speech in Los Angeles, which is said to have annoyed President Coolidge, has been in progress before congressional committees for more than two years. The subject apparently has caused Congressmen and Senators little annoyance. Since May 4, 1926, they have authorized the expenditure of $19,051,000 to replace wooden cantonments built during the war, with permanent structures and in some instances the substitution of modern brick barracks for canvas tents. Secretary of War Dwight F. Davis, Assistant Secretary Hanford MacNider and various general staff officers, have painted conditions for congressional committees. Former
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Senator James W. Wadsworth of New York, then chairman of the Military Affairs committee, led a successful movement authorizing new construction. During consideration of the 1927 War Department appropriation bill Secretary of War Davis told the appropriations committee: “I have not hesitated to say that I think the condition of our housing is a very serious matter, and almost amounts to a national scandal. If the money were available certainly an additional amount could and should be expended on that item. On the same occasion Representative Dan Anthony, Republican, Os Kansas, said: "Every report of the inspecting officers of the army and of the Secretary of War, the assistant secretary and the commanding officers during the last two or three years have called attention to what they call the deplorable housing situation in the army. The committee knows of that situation in some of the places and has tried to remed Maj. Gen. Dennis Nolan, deputy chief of staff, during testimony asserted “the serious situation presented by continuing to quarter approximately 40,000 officers and enlisted men in the temporary cantonments constructed during the war requires early consideration. War-time builuings are beginning to go bad on us. Os course, they were not intended to last forever.” ... . General Nolan estimated that to

replace completely all war-time wooden structures with permanent quarters would entail an expenditure of $100,000,000. No such extensive program ever has been authorized, but Congress, piecemeal, has attempted to improve facilities. The striking of bells on shipboard dates from the time of the han-hour sand glass- The bell was struck each time the glass was turned.
NEWS OF BUILDING IN INDIANAPOLIS
WOMEN ESCAPE WASHINGDISHES The Walker electric dishwashers are being demonstrated by the Caldwell Supply Company at its wholesale department, 32 S. Pennsylvania St., for the benefit of housewives and builders. “What to do about the dishes” talk has become a problem, but its solution has been reached in the Walker electric dishwasher and dryer, according to H. T. Caldwell, a member of the firm. “We have been able to convince a large number of housewives that these Walker electric dishwashers are one of the greatest things devised by science today for the women of this age,” said Caldwell. “More and more are women taking advantages of the Tesearch of the laboratories and machine shops, and they are demanding more in the way of modem home equipment, with the thought in mind that they can save time and effort for other things. The sphere of women has broadened and ov.tside interests are making greater demands upon her time. “Over a period of years during which many manufacturers have endeavored to solve the problem of a practical, truly labor-saving dishwashing machine, there has been just one machine which has steadily gone forward with new%developments and added refinements until today it is generally recognized as the one satisfactory, successful dishwasher for use in the home—the Walker electric dishwasher and sink. “Built of porcelain enameled iron, it has trays in which the soiled dishes are placed. Hot water and washing powder are introduced into the machine and the top lid closed. Pressure of the switch starts the rotating dasher. In from three to five minutes it is stopped and the soiled water is drained out and hot, clean water is introduced for rinsing. After a minute, this water is drained and the lid raised and the dishes are allowed to dry. Glasses and silverware only are polished.”
