FLOOD CONTROL PROJECT WAITS i COOUDGE 0, K. First Work Expected to Begin Soon After Congress Meets. BY RODNEY DUTCHER NEA Service Writer WASHINGTON. Oct. 12.—Nearly two years after the last great flood began to wreak its havoc in the Mississippi valley, work on the nation’s big flood control project will actually begin. The Army engineers expect that by January or February they can begin erecting the side leeves on the Bonnet Carre spillway above New Orleans. This will be the first major operation in the project. Two things remain before it can be done. First, President Coolidge must approve the report of the flood advisory board which Congress directed to reconcile the plan of the Army engineers with the ideas of the Mississippi River Commission. Contrary to a widespread impression, Congress did not appropriate $325,130,000 for the flood control project. It merely authorized the appropriation of such’ a sum and the appropriation can be made by Congress alone. The Army engineers expect that the President will have approved the advisory board’s report before Congress meets in December and THIS VAUDEVILLE ACTOR INDORSES THE NEW KONJOLA Under Doctor’s Care [When He Started With l This Medicine; Now fi Back on the Stage. Konjola ha; gained such wide popularity throughout Indianapolis territory that men and women in all walks of life have given their indorsement to this new medical preparation.

MR. H. H. THOMPSON get from the whole United States. They all say it is the most effective compound they have ever tried. Os the many Indianapolis citizens who have indorsed Konjola, there is probably no one better known throughout this whole section than Mr. H. H. Thompson, a popular vaudeville comedian generally known as the Komedy King Komedian. Mr. Thompson is a resident of Indianapolis and his home is at 720 Lincoln St., this city. His statements telling of the benefits he derived from this celebrated compound reads as follows: “A medicine that will do what Konjola did for me surely deserves public praise and I am glad to tell of my experience with this remarkable medicine,” reads Mr. Thompson’s statement. “During the 1927-28 season 1 suffered a nerveous collapse, which the doctor told me was caused from an ulcerated stomach and gastritis. At first I thought I would be compelled to cancel all my engagements for the season, but thanks to Konjola, I was only away from the stage for three weeks. My stomach was in such a disordered condition that my breakfast would never digest and as a result I would have to vomit nearly every morning before I could get from the restaurant to the hotel. This would always happen on an empty stomach. My other meals would remain in my stomach, but cause me a lot of misery from indigestion and gas bloating. I was feeling half-sick most of the time and could not put the right kind of pep and enthusiasm in my work. “I had been doctoring for several months and finally got to feeling so bad that I was forced to stay in bed and I thought I would have to give up my work for the balance of the season. Then I started to take Konjola and the relief this medicine gave me was really surprising. Before the first bottle was gone, 1 was able to eat any time I wanted and everything stayed on my stomach. And I could eat a full meal without fear of suffering from indigestion pain and gas bloating afterward Within three week’s time 1 was strong enough to return to my work and all signs of nervousness had disappeared. My health in general .is now better than it has been for several years. I have new life energy and plenty of pep, which makes my work all the more pleasant. “Konjola certainly ended my stomach trouble and built me up better than any medicine I had tried before. I strongly indorse it to anyone suffering the miseries of an upset stomach." The Konjola Man iS - at Hook’s drug store, Illinois and Washington Sts. Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Konjola is sold by every Hook drug store in this city and by all druggists throughout this section.—Advertisement.

that Congress will lose little time in appropriating money with which they may begin the job. Subsequently Congress will take up the question of work on the tributaries. The flood control act passed at the last session covers only the

while the total cost is a matter of argument, as it can not be accurately determined until the job is well under way. The amount which will have to be paid for flowage damage is one of the indefinite factors. Tentative estimates for the work

on the control project for the first year have been placed at $30,000,000 and the money will be provided for in the appropriation bill. The act of speaking calls into operation forty-four different muscles.
