CONGRESS TO WAGE HEATED BATTLES ON DRY PROBLEM
EXPECT FIGHTS IN HOUSE ON SEVEN BILLS Transfer of Enforcement Jurisdiction Tops Measures. SENATE STILL ON TARIFF Lower Group, However, Gets to Work Immediately on Prohibition. BY PAUL R. MALLOX t'ntted Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Jan. 14—Seven bills designed to carry out the prohibition law enforcement reform program of President Hcx>ver and his law enforcement commission Were prepared today for consideration In congress. The first of the measures was introduced shortly after congress convened today. The bill was the measure to transfer enforcement from the treasury to the justice department, which Is the only measure of the seven the dry leaders are confident they can enact at the present session. To Make Dry Agents The other six bills provide: For codification of all laws re- j /erring to prohibition. For amendment of the Volstead j act to make padlocks effective upon hidden property owners. For making prohibition agents of i all state, county and municipal i officers. For making all “casual or slight” j violations miscieamcanors. For enlarging the border customs patrol under the coast guard. For relieving congestion In the j federal courts by eliminating jury j trials in minor cases. For enlarging the powers of United States commissioners working under the federal courts. AgTee on Baffles Dry’s and wets agree that the seven bills will mean seven separate and distinct prohibition battles in congress. The leaders of the house, Speaker Longworth and Republican Floor Leader Tilson, have announced their determination of getting them all through their half of congress and the stringent rules under which they work will aid their plan. The senate Is another matter and the tn'n* fact that seven prohibition debates are to be staged has encouraged the drys tiiere to hope only for enactment of the transfer bill before congress adjourns in June. Bi cause of the situation, the drys wanted to carry out Hoover’s original plan of putting the whole program into one bill. They thought they might pass one bill speedily, but are inclined to throw up their hands at the prospect of seven bills. Despite the size of the task the house is going right to work at It. While Williamson Is pressing the transfer Chairman Johnson of the house immigration committee is preparing to take up the border patrol project. This would enlarge the patrol by several thousands and perhaps cost as much as $10,000,000 juinuaJly. MEAT PRICES DECLINE General Index of Farm Commodities Forced Down One Point. fir Unitr/t Prrtt WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.—Price declines in meat animals, dairy products and cotton and cotton seed during the period from Nov. 15 to Dec. 15 forced the general Index of farm prices down one point.to 135 per cent of the prewar level, the agricultural department announced today. Slight advances In the prices of Small grains, flaxseed, potatoes, apples and eggs were not large enough to offset the continued decline in farm prices of cotton, cotton seed, com, meat animals, livestock products, horses and chickens, the department said.

Sensible Way to Lose Fat Start taking Kruschen Salts—that’s the common-sense way to reduce —but don’t take them with the Idea that they possess reducing qualities in themselves. This is what they do—they clean out the impurities in your blood by keeping the bowels, kidneys and liver in splendid working shape and fill you with a vigor and tireless energy you’d most forgotten had existed. As a result instead of planting yonr*lt' In an essy chair every free moment and letting flabby fat accumulate yon feel sn urge for activity that keep* you moving around doing the things you've always wanted to do and needed to do to keep you In good condition. Then watch the pounds slide off! Kruschen Salta are the up-to-date fountain of Youth. Take one-half teaspoonful la a glass of hot or cold water tomorrow morning and every morning—they're tasteless thst way. and If they don't change your whole idea about reducing. go back and get the small price tou paid for them Get an S5 cent bottle of Kruschen Salts—last* 4 weeks—at Hook's Dependable Drug Stores—or any progressive druggist, anywhere In the world. It’s the Little Daily Dose that dees It. Advertisement.

DRINK HOT TEA FOR A BAD COLD
Get a small package of Hamburg Breast Tea at any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of his hamburg tea, put a cup of boiling water upon it, pour through a sieve and drink a teacupful at any time. It is the most effective way to break a cold and relieve grip, as it opens the pores, relieving congestion. Also loosens the bowels, thus breaking a cold at once. It is inexpensive and entirely vegetable, therefore harmless.—Advertisement.
