By Scripps-Hownrd Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.—Investigation dt the relief activities of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation by one or more committees of the Senate seems certain on the eve of the winter session of congress. Senator Robt. F. Wagner, author of the relief bill which the corporation has been administering since July, believes the senate banking and currency committee should make such an investigation. This committee, of which Wagner is a memt ber, framed the relief bill that finally was enacted into law. Senator Robert La Follette, whose committee on manufactures has studied relief extensively in connection with his proposals for more extended federal activities may call for such investigation as a part of further hearings on the same subject. La Follette proposes that his committee shall study destitution and relief conditions in the different parts of the country, as well as administration of relief from Washington.

Cold ABORTION (with lemon juice) Have you ever tried aborting a cold? When you abort your cold, it’s gone; the system is rid of it! The lemon juice treatment will do >t. Squeeze two full-size lemons in a large glass of very hot water and drink without sugar. First, take three tablets of Pape’s cold compound an-hour apart. This clears the head, dries the nasal passages, reduces any fever. The lemon juice then drives all cold symptoms right out of the system. Bedtime is best. This treatment will abort the worst cold overnight. One cold compound tablet will check a cold at any time, for several hours; then when night comes you can get rid of it by abortion. Any druggist has Pape's cold compound. It’s perfectly safe. Try it, and you'll never go back to halfway remedies.—Advertisement.

BANDIT GANG '--1 STEALS AUTOS, KIDNAPS PAIR Gunmen ‘ Believed to Be Planning Major Crime; Captives Released. (Continued From Page One) vers. They were well dressed and between the ages of 30 and 40. The one who did most of the talking was about 38, height 5 feet 10 inches, and weight 160 pounds. He gray suit, soft hat and black chinchilla overcoat. Owners of.tfie stolen cars are W. A. Courtwright,s3ll9 North Meridian street, and E. A. Houck, 3055 North Meridian street. The men with Mayes and Myers chatted amiably after the motorcade was driven from the garage and traveled north by way of Meridian street, then east and north on Road 31. Warned of Cops Battle “If you see any cops,” the kidnaped men were warned, “get down on the floor, because w’e’re going to start blazing. We are going to shoot it out with them.” “Keep your mouths shut and you won’t get hurt,” was another order. As they were ejected ffom the car, Myers and Mayes were asked: “Got any money to get back to town on?” Receiving a negative reply, one of the bandits tossed some money, remarking: “Here’s $3. That’ll get you back.” “We. are going to read the papers .today to see how good a description you got,” the released men were told. “Tell the owners of these cars they will get them back in tefi days. will be through with them then.” Frees Self, Calls Police “Wait a minute,” a bandit called, as Myers and Mayes started to walk toward the city. An umbrella was tossed to them with the remark, “Better raise it. It might rain.” The three cars then sped northward. Pullian succeeded in freeing himself in about ten minutes and called police. A squad commanded by Lieutenant Dan Scanlan began circling the area near the garage, but were thrown off the trail for a short time as a result of a report by a milk .man they met atJThirty-fourth street and Northwestern avenue, who said he saw three cars speeding north on the avenue.

RATES CUT UN YULETIDE CARDS i Christmas Greetings May Be Mailed for 1 1-2 Cents. Uncle Sam is a pretty good scout, but a poor business man. This was the opinion of Postmaster Leslie D. Clancy today, when he received a bulletin from the po;\master general’s office “tipping off” the public how legally to “beat the government out of some money.” The tip was that printed Christmas greeting cards may be mailed, unsealed, as third-class matter, bearing only a V.b cent stamp, instead of the usual 3-cent firstclass postage. Such cards must not bear any written message in the nature of personal correspondence, other than the sender's name and such simple written inscriptions as “Sincerely yours,” “Merry Christmas,” or “With best wishes.” Cards, sealed or unsealed, bearing other than such inscriptions must bear 3-cent postage for each ounce. In view of the 3-cent postage now required for first-class mail, Clancy said, many senders of Christmas greeting cards are expected to take advantage of the third-class mailing rate.
