EDISON MAY BE PUT IN CHARGE OF AERIAL WORK
President Will Select a Man of National Repute, Tis Said. WASHINGTON. D. C. April 23. Thomas Edison has been selected for director of the aircraft production, according to a rumor in circulation here last night. The report could not be verified at the White House, where it was said that the President is not ready to make any ennouncement regarding the reorganization of the agencies for producing airplanes which has been made necessary by the revelation of the breakdown of the program under the present management. Edison's Age a Handicap. Although it is said the president will select a man of national repute as he did in putting Charles Schwab in charge of fchipbuildlng, there are few omcials who place credence in the report that Mr. Edison is the man. Mr. Edison, it is pointed out, has suffered a great impairment of vigor due to advancing age and would be unequal to the stupendous task of speeding up airplane production. Will Make Public Report. To offset the damaging report of the airplane fiasco made by the combined Democratic and Republican majority of the senate committee on military affairs, the administration has caused Assistant Secretaries of War Crowell and Stetttnius to compile a report of the progress of the construction program which will be made public. It is also stated that the report of Snowden Marshall board of inquiry, which recommended a reorganization will be made public.

Says His Prescription Has Powerful Influence Over Rheumatism DUrnverer TelU DroKlt Sot to Take a Ceo of Aoroor'i Money Vnlemn Allenrhn Completely Banlaheo All Rheumatic Pains l Twlogf. Mr. James H. Allen suffered for years with rheumatism. Many times this terrible disease left him helpless and unable to work. He finally decided, after years of ceaseless studv. that no one can be free from rheumatisnt iitil the accumulated impurities, commonly called uric acid deposits, were dissolved in the joints and muscles and expelled from the body. , With this Idea in mind he consulted physicians, made experiments and finally compounded a prescription that quickly and completely banished every sign and symptom of rheumatism from his system. He freely Rave his discovery to others who took it, with what might be called marvelous success. After years of urging he decided to let sufferers everywhere know about his discovery through the newspapers. Druggists handle Allenrhu in this vicinity with the understanding that they will freely return the purchase money to all who state they received no benefit. Adv.

High Cattle Prices

Beef Prices
If consumers are to pay less for beef, live-stock raisers naturally will receive less for cattle. If farmers are paid more for live stock, consumers will necessarily pay more for meat. Swift & Company pays for cattle approximately 90 per, cent of the price received for beef and by-products. The remaining 10 per cent pays for dressing, freight to market, operation of distributing houses, and in most cases, delivery to the retailer. Net profits also have to come out of this 10 per cent. This margin cannot be squeezed arbitrarily without danger of crippling the only effective means of performing the complex service of converting cattle into meat and distributing this meat to the fighting forces and to consumers. Swift & Company's net profit on beef during 1917 was only l of a cent per pound. On all products, it was a little less than four cents on each dollar of sales. Complete elimination of these profits would not affect appreciably retail prices of meat, or farm prices of live stock. Swift & Company will be glad to co-operate in devising methods that will improve conditions in the meat and live stock industry.
