HUGHES BARES U. S. VIEWS FOR HAVANAPARLEY Position of Force to Draw Opposition From Latin American Countries. BY WILLIAM PHILLIP SIMMS Foreign Editor, Scripps-Howard Newspapers HAVANA, Jan. 13.—Behind a decorative facade o finnocuous resolutions composing the official agenda of the sixth Pan-American Congress, which opens here Monday hides the real stumbling block of the conference, namely the widely differing views of the United States and Latin America on the really vital problems of this hemisphere. Here is the A. B. C. of the United States’ position as outlined by no less a person than the former Secretary of State Charles Evans Hughes, head of our delegation to Havana: 1. Insistence upon the necessity of the Monroe doctrine as a measure of self defense, not only for the United States, but for all America. Touches Foreign Bights 2. Recognization of the equality of American republics and the equality of their rights under the law of nations. 3. Respect for thd territorial integrity of the Latin American nations and opposition to any acts of aggression either by own or any other country. 4. Recognization that States have duties as well as rights and that among such duties is that of respecting the rights of citizens of other States legally acquired within the State. 5. To make available the friendly assistance of the United States to promote stability in those sister republics which are afflicted by disturbances of their own peace and that of their neighbors, 6. To facilitate the peaceful setof difficulties between the governments of this hemisphere. 7. To pave the way to mutually helpful cooperation which is the real object of Pan-American conferences. Agenda Will Draw Fire 8. To safeguard at all costs the Panama Canal and any other waterway that may be built between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and, because of this necessity, to declare the disturbances in the Caribbean region are of special interest to us —not however, for the purpose of seeking control over others but of being assured that our own safety is free from menace. In response to numbers two and three, for example, Latin America’s answer will be Nicaragua. To numbers five and six, she will want to know why we feel that we alone are called upon to promote the stability of Latin American republics and arbitrate their differences. Quoting! number seven right back In our faces, she will announce her willingness to "cooperate” with us

DOCTORS SHOW HOW TO END HEAD COLDS

1 Many Here Try New Hospital Method In Own Home Get Relief in Few Hours A great many Indianapolis peo-ple-like Edw. W. Tyler, have learned that it is no longer necessary to let a head or chest coal make a person feel miserable or cause fear of pneumonia. For hospital doctors are recommending a simple home treatment that brings sure relief—often in a few hours. A severe cold had kept Mr. Tyler from business several days. When nothing seemed to help him he called the clinic for advice. Doctors then recommended double strength doses of Cherry PectoraJ —a highly concentrated mixture of wild cherry, terpin hydrate and other ingredients which have relieved even the most extreme hospital cases. With the first swallow he felt the soothing, comforting, healing warmth, from his nose passages deep down into his chest. In a few hours he felt lots better and slept well that night. In another day or so, doctors report, the cold was completely gone. .Note: See other cases—all certified

by a member of the hospital clinic. Doctors find that this hospital medicine does far more than stop coughing instantly. It penetrates and heals inflamed linings of the breathing passages. Absorbed by the system it quickly reduces phlegm, helps allay that "feverish” grippy feeling and drives out the cold from the nose passages, throat and chest. Just a few pleasant spoonfuls of Cherry Pectoral now and you’ll feel like a different person tomorrow. At all druggists, GOc; twice as much in SI.OO hospital size.

CITY WILL PUT SEWAGE PLANT IN OPERATION Unfinished Plant Is to Be Completed When Funds Are Available. Completion of the dehydration plant at Eagle woods, city sanitary department is contemplated at soon as sufficient funds are available, Board President O. C. Ross declared today. Ross estimated $30,000 will complete the plant in which the city has had $207,000 invested for two years. It will be necessary to issue bonds to provide the needed ihoney. Bonds are not acceptable by attorneys until litigation over the mayor’s seat is settled. Consulting Engineer Charles H. Hurd, who designed the plant, said installation of filters and minor jobs are required. Revenue Is Expected Hurd said Milwaukee, Wis„ had done considerable experimentation with the same system and had found it successful. Chicago has two small plants and expects to try the dehydration system. The purpose of the dehydration plant is to dry products from the activated sludge plant, making the sludge saleable as fertilizer. At present the sludge is dumped into huge pits and allowed to dry naturally. It takes about two years to complete the digestion process and the demand on the plant has so increased that it will be necssary to use the artificial drying system within the next year, engineers say. The fertilizer is given to fanners and truckers who are willing to haul is from the pits, but it is expected to bring in revenue as soon as the dehydration plant is installed. Slack Inspects Plant Cecil Calvert, sewage plant chemist, believes further experimentation should be made before the process is installed. Mayor L. Ert Slack and other city officials inspected the sewage disposal and garbage reduction plants Thursday. Slack has been interested in settling the political squabble in the sanitary department. With the retirement of former President Russell T. Mac Fall the board has functioned harmoniously, and it is believed the board will agree to finish the dehydration plant in a few weeks. Member B. J. T. Jeup will be unable to attend meetings for some time because of a recent fall at his home. City Engineer A. H. Moore and Ross, other board members, have conferred with Jeup on sanitry affairs at his home.

QUART OF WATER CLEANS KIDNEYS Take a Little Salts if Your Back Hurts, or Bladder Is Troubling You No man or woman can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Eating too much rich food creates acids, which excite the kidneys. They become overworked from the strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood. Then we get sick. Rheumatism, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders often come from sluggish kidneys. The feel a dull ache in the kidneys, or your back lurts, begin drinking a quart of water each day, also get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast, and in a few days ycur kidneys may act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to flush and stimulate the kidneys; also to help neutralize the acids in the system, so they no longer cause irritation, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which every one should take now and then to help keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood pure, thereby often avoiding serious kidriey complications.—Advertisement.

Richard Cantillon, associate defense counsel, said he believed “Hickman could not obtain a fair trial in this county.” Cantillon made his statement in commenting on the action of southern California’s women’s clubs,

Bu United Press TOLEDO, Jan. 13.—Albert Oden, 38, Hillsdale (Mich.) farmer, quietly reiterated to police today how he killed George Woodward, 54, Toledo, last night because “Woodward broke up my home.” • “I just killed a man and he deserved it if any man ever did,” Oden told- police as he surrendered. The farmer said he stabbed Woodward with a banana knife. Woodward died on the front porch at the home of Patrolman Carl Varner, where he sought refuge from Oden. Woodward worked for him near Hillsdale three years ago, Oden said. Later, he learned the man and Mrs. Oden were holding clandestine meetings. Oden said he became so enraged he left home. A few weeks ago he returned to see his 16-year-old daughter Thelma. Wednesday night, Oden continued, he heard that Woodward, in a drunken rage had beaten his (Oden’s) wife and Oden determined to intervene. With this intention, Oden said he sought Woodward out last night. A dispute followed and Woodward tackled him, he declared. Oden drew the banana knife and stabbed thei man three times.

I was feeling miserably weak and listless. I had no strength at all. I felt every day that I would have to give up and go to bed, but my family cares were such that I had to keep going. “I had just about reached the end of my endurance when, fortunately, I heard of Cardui. One of my friends asked me why I did not try it, I thought it might help me, from what I had read, so I began taking it. “I was quite surprised to find my appetite was picking up and I was feeling much stronger after I had been taking Cardui only a short time. I was so pleased with my progress that I kept on with the medicine until I felt like I had been made over. “I have taken Cardui several times since then when I was rundown or feeling weak. My health is always better after I take it.” v * RELY Iq vegetable tonic Cardoseptic, for hygienic reasons, should be used by women as a mild, harmless detergent; 50 cts.
