COURT-MARTIAL CAUSES GROWTH OF BOLSHEVISM Injustice in Army Causes Men to Lose Respect for U. S., Says Chamberlain. ' . (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, March 11. Describing certain court-martial sentences In the American army as "things that , make Bolshevikl of our young men," ; United .States Senator George BJ. Chamberlain, chairman of the senate . committee on military affairs, sharply criticized court-martial procedure In ; an address before the United Waist , league of America here. "These sentences are imposed absolutely without any system in the administration of the criminal laws of the land,' he said, "and they are really Imposed at the order of the com'mandlng officer, because it the court ' makes a ruling which Is unpopular to the commanding officer he will order the court to be reconvened, and In some cases, Issue Instructions to It." Urges Re-employment.

Referring to long sentences which had been Imposed for slight infractions of the rules, Senator Chamberlain said that "these boys know that an Injustice has been done to them " and It will not Increase their respect for the government. "I have found boys of 17 and 18. not ; yet . mature," he continued, "sent away for long terms in prison, some of them because they were absent without leave homesick youths who - left to say good-by to their mothers or perhaps a last word to their sweet- ' hearts. Five days away led one of ' them to be sentenced for 40 years." , Senator Chamberlain urged a better treatment of the returning soldier and asKea every Dusiness man to re-em-ploy men who gave up their positions to enter the service, if they were physically capable of doing the work. The question of unemployment, he asserted, was largely up to the business man for settlement. CLOSE STATE Continued From roe One. the city. Governor Goodrich, however, established a precedent last session when he vetoed a similar measure providing for the state accepting this property. Just prior to passage of this bill the house pas3ed the measure providing for the two platoon Are department for the city of South Bend. License fees to be paid next year on motor vehicles and by chauffeurs are the same as those provided in the Dean measure as It left the house. The senate amended the bill, Increasing the amounts, and the house re fused to concur in the amendments. I The first house conferees were discharged and three other members were named, who upon conference with the representative from the senate, succeeded in getting the latter to recede from the senate amendments and accept the bouse measure as passed. Justice Courts Saved. Justices of the peace courts, which were threatened with abolishment by constitutional amendments, were saved at the last minute by Speaker Eschbach withdrawing the resolution after it had been handed down for adoption. Speaker Esohbach, who. expressing his appreciation for the diamond carf pin given him by the members, i sang his swan song as a member of i fhe legislature, mentioned frequently t luring the session a3 a prospective jandldate for governor at the next orlmary. Representative Vasey. of Fort Wayne, has been spoken of as a prospective candidate for lieutenant governor. Mr. Vesey Is one of the youngest members of the house. The expense of the session was estimated by house officers to have been approximately $100,000. The exact amount will not be known for a few days as several expense statements have not been filed. Court Records Woman Resentenced Bessie Koontz, who has Just finished two weeks on a statutory conviction in the Home for Friendless Women, will go back to Jail for neglecting her children. Brought before Juvenile court some time ago on the latter charge, a sentence of $25 and 30 days in Jail was suspended during good behavior, and Monday morning Judge Bond sentenced her to serve the suspended sentence.

feV NEW TAX MEASURE 11 -'Sf TO BE EXPLAINED V TO ASSESSORS

'YAM- MM The United States navy hopes to be the first body to send an airplane across the atlantie, In an effort to beat competitors the navy recently withdrew its largest seaplane from the Aeronautical Exposition at Madison Square Garden. Now every effort is being made at the Rockaway Naval Training Station to start the navy's flying boat on its transocean course before Great Britain's dirigible or the machines of any other nation make the flight. Inquiry as to the cause for withdrawing the navy's largest exhibit, the N. C. 1 at the last moment brought a statement from Secretary Daniels in Washington that Ms department wants the credit of making the first trans-ocean flight Aviators and explorers agree that a successful trip over the Atlantic would be one of the greatest feats of the century, and the name of the pilot making the flight would be written in histories for all time. "The trial will be mad) in the N. C. 1 or a vessel of that type," said Secretary Daniels. Reports that the start will be made In the next few days are slightly premature. It will be some weeks before we can start our flight." a No Time to Be Lost. The secretary did not say that th arrival'in Newfoundland of a British expert to designate a landing place for a British machine of the nonrigid dirigible type soon to leave England for this side was the cause of withdrawing the N. C. 1 from the exposition. It was learned, however, that the navy received word there was no time to be lost if the department is to get across the ocean ahead of the others. The days spent in transferring the giant N. C. 1 from Rockaway to Madison Square Garden would be a waste of time that might prove fatal to their plans, navy officers said today. The army, too, is making ready for a transocean flight. Just v.hat type of plane will be used has not been decided. Army officers and heads of the aircraft department were interested in many of the larger types of machines today. They would not commit themselves as to the army plans. Endurance Test Soon. The N. C. 1 will receive an endurance test soon. It already has made successful flights as far as Washington and other points along the coast. The navy has four separate machines of the same type. The N. C. 1 as originally built had an upper wing span of 126 feet and the lower wings had a span of ninety-four feet. The body of the craft is eighty-four feet long. The lower wing Is twenty-four feet above the ground. It may be driven at will by two pilots sitting side by side and can carry a crew of five men in its enclosd cabin. The N. C. 1 has carried in sustained flight fifty-one passengers end has made eighty-five miles an hour. It climbs at the rate of 2,000 feet in ten minutes. Commander John II. Towers is In charge of the overseas flight. The army is building its plane which will probably be of the Glenn-Martin bombing type, and strictly a land machine with no pontoons. While the navy craft is expected to make the 1,800 miles between Newfoundland and Ireland in about fifteen hours, the army plane will be compelled, say experts, to make it in Jumps, taking the Azores route and landing either in England or France. The naval flight will start from Far Rockaway. Just where the army will launch its craft has not been decided.

U. S. Navy Prepares Largest Seaplane for

District conferences of tax assessors and their deputies have been called In ten cities of the state for the purpose of explaining the features of the new tax reform measure. The first of the district conferences will be held in Indianapolis at. the house of representatives Wednesday. Wayne county assessors are to attend the meeting. Other counties included In the district to meet Wednesday are: Bartholomew, Boone, Brown, Decatur, Delaware, Fayette, Hamilton, Hancock, Hendricks, Henry, Johnson, Madison, Marion, Monroe, Morgan, Owen, Putnam, Rush, Shelby, Tipton, Franklin, Randolph and Union. Discussion of the new tax law will be conducted by three members of the commission, Fred A. Sims, Philip Zoercher and Strange N. Cragun. "All instructions from this office," a member of the commission said yesterday, "will be to the effect that all property shall be assessed on the 100 per cent basis and the word will have the bark on it. We don't want any assesors to get the idea that there will be any letting down of the bars. Not only will there be an earnest effort to get all real estate and personal property on the duplicate at true cash value, but assessors will be urged to get all the Intangible property along with others. In the past intangible property has not had a chance because of the high tax rates. It will be different now, as the tax rate must decrease, and it will not be a hardship on intangible property to be listed." PRODUCE EVIDENCE OF I. W, W. PLOT (By Associated Press WASHINGTON, March 11. Evidence gathered by the postoffice department through seized mail matter showing activities of the I. W. W., anarchists, Socialists and other radicals since the signing of the armistice was to be read today into the records of the senate committee investigating lawless propaganda. The evidence was submitted in the form of a memorandum from Solicitor Lamar of the department declaring that the radical elements of the United States were forming a union with a view to "the overthrow of the government of the United States by means of a bloody revolution and the establishment of a Bolshevik republic," and in the form of supporting excerpts from mail matter. The memorandum which was made public by the committee late yesterday asserted that the radical elements of the country had for the first time "found a common cause upon which they can unite" in Bolshevism. Thti I. W. W., Solicitor Lamar charged, were active in the support of the "common cause" through the organization's field force of recruiting and subscription agents. He said the excerpts submitted would show that the propaganda had as one of Us objects "a nation-wide reign of terror." BANISH NERVOUSNESS Put Vigor and Ambition Into RunDown, Tired Out People.

Labor Meetings Central Labor Council holds its next regular meeting on next Thursday evening, March 13. A good meeting is expected and a full attendance is desired every delegate should be on hand and have a voice in the business to be transacted. There will be matters of much interest to organized labor to come before this session. The Rev. Elmer E. Davis, of the Second Presbyterian church, the man that made such a hit at the banquet, will be there and deliver an address, and no union man can afford to miss this treat. There has been some confusion existing among organized labor men in the city as to the right of attending the sessions of the central body. All members of any local union have the right to attend the meetings of Central Labor Council, but they have no official status they have the right to enter into all the discussions but do not have the right to vote on any question. So do not stay away because you are not a delegate. The secretary is trying to get in touch with Washington, and hopes to have some news to give out at the meeting. Don t fail to attend next Thursday night. Come whether you are a delegate or not. The address of Mr. Davis will be well worth the effort you put forth in attending. Secretary. Miss Elizabeth Souers Dies Following Operation NEW PARIS, March 11 Miss Elizabeth Souers died in a hospital at Dayton Sunday.

At Last! A Perfect Way to Whiten Teeth A woman's beauty Is completely spoilt by stained, unhealthy or broken teeth. A smile, which ought to be such a beautiful thing', should reveal an even row of perfectly white teeth. But, unfortunately, few sets of teeth are really white, for the simple reason that brushingwith the usual dentifrices Is not an effective means of removing: stains, and so many dread the periodical visit to the dentist to have their teeth scraped. All teeth are covered with thin films or "plaques," which are bound to become discolored In time If only tooth powder or paste Is depended upon to keep them spotless. Many have learned, however, of a remarkable product, "Qnce-a-Week Tooth Polish," which is a veritable wonder-worker In removing: the brownish or grayish films from the teeth. Also that once removed, stains and tartar will never return if this harmless preparation Is used once a week, as the name suggests. Once-a-Week Tooth Polish can be had In convenient package at any drug store and Just a little need be put on the toothbrush. Parents should begin using it on the little ones' teeth when the teeth first come through the gums. It should be sent to every boy In khaki or blue. Adv.

MORTON MAY RETURN

TO COUNTY OFFICE Howard Horton, county surveyor, who has offered his resignation to the county commissioners, may reconsider his action, In case the county surveyors bill is passed by the governor. Horton's determination to resign was brought about partly by dissatisfaction with the returns paid by the office. It was learned Tuesday, and signing of the bill, which would mean a salary of $3,200 for the surveyor of Wayne county, would probably influence him to stay. Under the present system the county surveyor is paid by the day for the work he does, and as comparatively little road building is assured for this year, the probable returns would not have been sufficient. - He will probably tell the commissioners his final decision Saturday. W. C. T. U. to Fight Brewers' Interests in Mexico (By Associated Pressi NEW YORK, March 11. Plans of American brewers to transfer their plants to Mexico and the orient will be fought by the Woman's Christian Temperance union, in connection with its campaign for world prohibition, it was announced at national headquarters today. "With prohibition a virtual certainty In the United States, we are going to direct our endeavors toward ridding the rest of the world of the liquor and strong drink evil," Mrs. Ella Boole, national vice president, declared. "The liquor traffic is still a menace," she said. "American brewers and distillers are invading Mexico and the orient with their nefarious trade. Our sisters in China have sent their appeal to us. To defeat this menace we are appropriating $300,000 of the $1,000,000 budget we expect to raise between March 20 and May 31 to that end." Although whisky has been put out of the running, men who have fallen back on tobacco for solace need have no Immediate fears. The W. C. T. U. as a national or world organization holds no brief against "lady nicotine" as long as she confines her attention to the male sex, it was intimated. "There need be no fear on the part of men regarding tobacco," . Mrs. Boole said. "Local organizations may carry on anti-cigaret and tobacco campaigns in their cities and states, but we are planning no nationwide crusade against nicotine. However, the W. C. T. U. is unalterably opposed to women smoking and will do everything in its power to discourage the habit. Through education it expects to prejudice the coming generation against the use of tobacco."

By Dr. Wellsman Intestinal Parasites TAPE WORMS The Beef Tape Worm The Pork Tape Worm There, are several species of tapeworm which inhabit the human digestive system, but only two species are commonly found In man: The Beef Tape-worm, and the Pork Tape-worm. Of these two varieties, the Beef Worm Is by far the commoner in this country while the Pork Worm, though very rare in the United States, Is quite common In some parts of Europe.

The tape-worm la an entirely differ- J

ent form of parasite from any other worm, and in order to understand these differences a short study of Its life history Is necessary. When the egg of a tape-worm is passed from its original carrier It finds itself either floating about In water or deposited on the ground or vegetable growth. As it Is extremely tenacious of life, it manages to exist until it Is swallowed with the food or water of either cattle or hogs, as the case may be. In the stomach of its "host" it hatches out as a larva, which bores through the walls of the intestine and finds its way into the muscular tissues. There it ceases to develop and forms around itself a small bladder-like cyst. When the flesh so infected is eaten by man, without sufficient cooking to destroy the Solex, as it is called, the bladderlike covering Is dissolved, and the Solex or "head" attaches Itself to the walls of the small Intestine. Strictly speaking, the Solex Is not the "head"' of a worm, but a complete worm in itself and from It developes a series of other worms, attached to each other in the form of links, like a flattened chain. Each link is a separate animal, comprising both sexes in one body, and capable-of producing their kind. At first, when , the links are close to the Solex, they are very small and appear almost thread-like, but a3 successive links are formed they become larger in every way, until they are finally fully developed and measure from one-quarter to three-eighth? of an inch long by one-half to threa quarters of an Inch broad. It requires about twelve weeks for the tape-wcrm to fully develop. If It 13 possible to examine carefully a complete, ful'y developed tape-worm, one will find at the upper end, first, the small, roundish Solex, cr head, about the size of a ! pin head, then an inch or more of slender, hair-like links forming the socalled "neck" and then the segments, gradually increasing in width and length until at the lower end they are nearly or quite square. The shape cf these links changes In the various stages cf their development, the younger being broader than long, and the fully developed being longer then they are broad. In length the Beef Worm may measure thirty feet, and occasionally one is removed entire that will exceed that In length; but the Pork Worm is much smaller, and is usually less than fifteen feet from end to end. The same treatment is used for both species. The tape-worm has no digestive organs whatever, and receives its nourishment from the contents of the bowel in which it lives. When only partially developed it is not apt to. cause any unpleasant symptoms and its presence is usually detected by ac

cident; but when more fully grown it makes itself known by a number of unpleasant and distressing disturbances. There is usually a ravenous and capricious appetite with a craving for strange mixtures of food, a sense of fullness In the lower abdomen, a feeling that something Is crawling In one's bowels, and frequently a feeling of exhaustion and numbness of the arms and legs. A positive proof of the existence of tape-worm Is the passage of links or connected segments, a condition which will exist if the worm has reached sufficient size to cause the other more Indefinite symptoms. Laxcarln has been found a very efficient destroyer of both types ml tapeworms. In order to experience the above referred to symptoms, you may be sure that there is something wrong somewhere. If they are not caused by the tape-worms, perhaps their cause might be either constipation or other stomach disorders. At any rate It is safe to assume that Laxcarln will help to remedy these conditions. For tapeworms it has been found advisable to abstain from all food during the day previous to taking Laxcarln. The object of doing this is to remove all food and protective covering from the worm and give the Laxcarln an opportunity to act effectively. The following morning the Laxcarln is taken on an empty stomach. When the worm has been passed it should be carefully washed from other matter and examined thoroughly. If, when the fine hair-like end is examined a round prutuberance Is seen, then It will be known that the head has been removed. -
