MRS. JENCKES ASKS FARM AID FOR FOOD BILL Congresswoman in Radio Talk Explains Merits of Her Measure. Mrs. Virginia E Jenckes. member of congress from the Sixth Indiana district, is appealing to farmers. and especially farm women, to support her in a campaign for adoption of the foods, drugs and cosmetic hill In a speech recently over station WMAL in Washington. Mrs. Jenckes explained the bill, addressing herself principally to farmers' wives. ‘ You farm and home women have a very definite interest in all legislation dealing with the production and distribution of foods, drugs and cosmetics,” said Mrs. Jenckes. “Women control the purchase of a large percentage of these articles. House Bill No. 7964 which I have introduced in the house of representatives. will protect the users of these articles in our American homes. Asks Support of Women “I am calling on all women throughout America to co-operate with me and support my measure. It was designed to protect and benefit our homes and also be of genuine assistance to American manufacturers and distributors of foods, drugs and cosmetic;, who are loyal to public interests and patriotically co-operating to help the nation climb out of the depression. ‘ This bill," Mrs. Jenckes continued, “is not to be confused with the so-callers Copeland and Tugwell bills to which there has been widespread and. as I believe, proper objection. “The bill I have offered seeks first to provide substantially increased protection for the consumer against adulterated, impure or misbranded foods, drugs and cosmetics, and to eliminate false or misleading advertising of all such products. Provisions of Bill “It gives the government complete power to construe and enforce its provisions, subject only to constitutional limitations leaving the burden upon the government to prove violations. At the same time it provides for an administrative hearing before criminal prosecution. And further it provides full protection for the manufacturer by establishment of an administrative board of review, appointed by the President, to which the manufacturer may appeal any decision by the secretary of agriculture."

TOOK PILLS FOR 30 YEARS, THEN CEREAL BROUGHT RELIEF Mr. Forsythe Endorses AllBran for Constipation If you suffer from headaches, loss of appetite and energy or any other of the frequent effects of constipation, read this voluntary letter: “After taking pills and tablets for about thirty years for constipation, I started to take your AllEran three times a day according to directions. Today I can eat cheese, and that is binding, and certainly feel fine.”—Mr. Ed. Forsythe, Box 219, Youngstown, N. Y. Science says All-Bran provides “bulk” to exercise the intestines, and vitamin B to further aid regular habits. In addition, All-Bran is rich in blood-building iron. The “bulk” in All-Bran is much like that of leafy vegetables. Inside the body, it forms a soft mass which gently clears the intestines of wastes. Isn’t this pleasant “cereal way” far more healthful than using pat, ent medicines —so often habitforming? Just eat two tablespoonfuls daily. In serious cases use with each meal. If not relieved this way, see your doctor. Get the red-and-green package at your grocer’s. Made by Kellogg in Battle Creek.

State Restaurant Men Ask to Draw Own Code

Impossible to Fill National Trade Pact, They Tell General Johnson. Members of the Indiana State Restaurant Association yesterday, decided to present a petition for a code of their own to General Hugh S. Johnson, national recovery administrator, it was learned today. Action of the restaurant men is based upon strenuous objection to the restaurant code conditionally signed by the President, it was learned. The restaurant association will ask that its own code be substituted for the national code which is to be placed in effect today. Several weeks ago, the association sent a petition to General Johnson asking for delay in putting the national code into effect but it has received no reply. The new petition. it was learned, refers to the national code as “practically impossible of fulfillment” in Indiana. Chief request in the new petition of the association, it was learned, is that a code be submitted that will contain variable provisions of hours and wayes to cover variable conditions of operation and ability to pay with the plan to raise the standards of fair competition by eliminating “loss leaders and bait selliny" in all types of places where foo dis sold.”

I. Spira s tropical fish were dying; ; they developed a sort of softening of the spine, grew pale, and at last turned belly-up. Dr. Sidney Brown borrowed an idea from his practice, and suggested giving them viosterol. which is ergosterol rayed with ultraviolet. which in turn constitutes it a concentrated form of the rickets — preventing vitamin D. Mr. Spira carried out his friend's suggestion, adding the oil-dissolved viosterol to the regular fish ration of dried shrimp, beetle and ground j fresh liver. The sick fish grew healthy again, although the ones that ! had become deformed did not recover normal shape. Mr. Spira relates his experience in the current issue of Science.

PRESIDENT OBJECTS: SMILE FADES FROM OFFICIAL PORTRAIT

By United Press WASHINGTON, Feb. 27. President Roosevelt does not want his official portrait, which will hang in the White House, to show him with his practically omnipresent smile. Mrs. Bay Emmett Rand painted the portrait, with a smile on the President’s face, last summer. The President wanted the smile erased.. When the mouth was changed, no one liked the picture, and so Mrs. Rand continued working on it, Mrs. Roosevelt revealed today. Mrs. Roosevelt will see the latest changes when she is in New York Thursday. The Jo Davidson head, which is the President’s favorite sculpture of himself, shows a very serious mouth.

COOK SMASHES AT AIR MAIL CANCELLATION ‘Slick Political Move,’ Hints Legion Flier at G. 0. P. Meeting. Insinuations that the cancellation of air mail contracts was a “slick political move” were hurled last night by Lieutenant-Colonel H. Weir Cook, chairman of the American Legion aeronautics commission, at a meeting of the Irvington Republican Club. Stating that he was basing his opinions o naccounts read in the newspapers, Mr. Cook said the governments allegation of collusion probably was a political maneuver to pave the way for the cancellation of the private contracts. “Don’t misunderstand me,” the speaker said. “I don't know. I made one trip to Washington recently and I don’t want to make another.” Recently, Mr. Cook was called to Washington as a grand jury witness in connection with an investigation of a war department automobile truck contract. Terming the charges made by Postmaster-General Janies A. Farley against the aviation company officials at the time they abrogated the contracts as “ridiculous.” Mr. Cook stated that there was no need for collusion among them. Most of the aviation company officers already had their air mail contracts before they attended the meeting, he said. Mr. Cook said that nothing will come of the air mail investigation except ammunition for use in the political campaign this fall. Pliny H. Wolfard, vice-president of the club, presided. In Mexico, boa constrictors are tamed and kept as pets; they are useful in destroying poisonous snakes ; and insects.

PARIS, Feb. 27.—Magistrate Al- | bert Prince, whose testimony in the Stavisky banking scandal threatened run to a score of politicians, probably was alive when he was tied to the railway tracks at Dijon, sur- | geons reported today.

A parliamentary commission of forty-four members, investigating connection of politicians with Alexandre Stavisky. fraudulent banker, was presented by the ministry of justice with a voluminous dossierw containing a detaailed report which Prince finished just before his fatal trip to Dijon. This report told all that can now be known of the manner in which the fraudulent banker obtained nineteen adjournments of a fraud charge brought against him in 1926. Time after time, over a period of nearly eight years, Stavisky obtained adjournments of the case.
