M'NUTT FIRM FOR PASSAGE OF SALES TAX Decries Proposal to Take Money From Highway Maintenance. "Restoration of purchasing power is the only way out of the depression." This was the view expressed today by Governor Paul V. McNutt, in condemning the proposal of merchants and manufacturers that highway funds, be used to balance the state budget and halt passage of a sales tax. The Governor contended that state highway maintenance means more in restored purchasing power, through employment and wages, than would failure to enact a sales tax. 'The retail merchants and manufacturers are the direct beneficiaries of all restored purchasing power,” he declared. "More idle men and a halt in all purchases of materials would result irom taking away highway funds. 'I hat method is being used too much now, and we are traveling in a vinous circle trying to find the way out of the depression.” McNutt declared that there is doubt of the constitutionality of using gasoline tax money for anything but roads. The administration has no right to take $3,000,000 from the highway department on the ground that the department should not have received inheritance tax payments years ago, he said. This was part of the anti-sales tax proposal.

SENATE DRIVE OPENS TO ‘BUY AMERICAN’ Johnson Demands Federal Funds Be Spent for U. S. Products. Up 1 ii ited PrvRH WASHINGTON, Feb. 3. The treasury - postoflice appropriation bill, already the vehicle of a vast federal economy program, has become in the senate the center of a movement to require all federal departments and agencies to spend their money for American manufactures and raw materials. By a vote of 54 to 20 the senate suspended its rules Thursday to enable Senator Hiram Johnson (Rep., Cal.) to launch the program for domestic purchases. “Received more than thirty calls from my Times swap ad,” E.

This last is the worst fear parents teach children, because they talk it all the time themselves.

PEACE MADE, SANDINO WILL QUIT NICARAGUA Insurrectionist Returns to Managua: Cheered by Troops. By United Perm MANAGUA. NICARAGUA. Feb. 3. —General Augustino Sandino, swarthy insurrectionist, has returned to Managua today after a seven-year absence during which he evaded the combined efforts of the United States marine corps and the guaidia national to capture him. His arrival was interpreted to mean that he definitely nad reached peace terms with President Juan B. Sacasa, his one-time fellow’ revolutionist. The insurrectionist was given an enthusiastic ovation .by a military escort of fifty guardsmen when he stepped from an airplane Thursday at the local airport. The assembled guardsmen shouted “Viva General Sandino.” General Sandino nonchalantly responded: Expects to Leave at Once "Thank you, boys. I bring you peace and honor. General Sandino was picturesquely clad in unpressed khaki clothes, high top boots and an enormous sombrero. General Sandino intends to leave Nicaragua immediately for the Argentine. The insurrectionist, who is only 40, first attracted international attention when he refused to abandon the revolt of General (now President) Sacasa against President Emiliano Chamorro in 1927, following the Tipitapa agreement. Costs American Lives He and his little band of followers, w’hich were said never to have exceeded 500 in number, kept northern Nicaragua in an almost continual uproar, despite the aggressive measures of several thousand American marines and a welltrained national guard force. His activities cost scored of American lives. The present truce came about only because American marines w’ere withdrawn from Nicaragua on Jan. 1, 1933.
Hemorrhoids Go Quick All Pile Misery Ended Without Cutting or Salves Thousands who have piles have not yet learned that quick and lasting relief can only be accomplished with an internal medicine. Neither salves nor suppositories remove the cause. Had circulation of blood in the lower bowel causes piles. The hemorrhoidal veins are flabby, the bowel walls weak —the parts almost dead. To tret rid of Piles an internal medicine must be used to stimulate the circulation, drive out the thick, impure blood, heal and restore the affected parts. Dr. J. S. Leouhardt, aftpr years of study, found a real internal Pile remedy. He called his discovery HEM-UOID. and prescribed it for 1,000 patients with success in over 900 cases, and then decided every Pile sufferer, no matter how stubborn their case, might try bis prescription with a money back guarantee. HEM-ROID tablets have such a wonderful record of success that Hook's Dependable Drug Stores and all good druggists invite you to try HEM ISOID and guarantee money refunded if it does not end your Pile misery.—Advertisement.
Murder! 14 Prize Daschunds Are Poisoned: ‘Rivalry’ Is Blamed.
By United Preeg North hackensack. n. j., Feb. 3.—A mystery of fourteen poisoned daschunds today intrigued deductive minds of the Bergen county police department. The dogs were in the kennels of Fred Vodegel. They included Seiger Menz Assnannsheim, the world's champion red smoothhaired daschund, and Parmenio Ditmarsia, the world's champion rough-coated daschund. Both belonged to Mrs. J. H. O'Donohue, one of those who believe the clogs were poisoned by a rival fancier. When the animals were released from their kennels forbreakfast, they ran to a corner of their inclosure where a pile of meat balls had been set. An attendant, supposing Vodegel had ordered the meat placed there, did not tiy to stop them until he noticed that some of the dogs appeared to be ill almost immediately.
