The percentage of United States flagships in the world’s merchant fleet is one-half of what it was three decades ago. The percentage of American goods moving overseas in American ships is now the lowest in modern history. The United States has dropped to thirteenth among the nations in the size of our merchant fleet and presently ranks fourteenth in shipbuilding. Some 70 per cent of our ships are twenty years or older and will be due for layup within the next five years.

Wake Up Your PERISTALSIS And Be Your SMILING BEST Peristalsis is the muscular action of your digestive system. When peristaltic action slows down, waste materials can build up in the lower tract. You can become irregular, uncomfortable, stuffed. The unique laxative formula of today’s Carter’s Pills gives effective, temporary relief of the irregularity by activating the slowed-down muscles of the lower tract and stimulating peristalslf. So if you’re sluggish due to irregularity, take Carter’s Pills to wake up your peristalsis and you'll bounce back to your smiling best. Millions of satisfied users take Carter’s Pills for effective temporary relief of irregularity. Why don’t you. 49#.

NEW ORLEANS UPI_Dist. Judge Edward Haggerty Jr. Monday refused to quash the assassination conspiracy indictment against Clay L. Shaw, the former director of the New i Orleans International Trade
Mart.
However the judge gave defense attorneys an additional week in which to file final motions, one of which might be a request to transfer the Shaw j trial elsewhere. Defense Atty. Irvin Dymond declined to say what new motions he might file, but there were reports he might ask for a change of venue because of publicity here considered unfavorable to Shaw. Haggerty was not expected to set a trial date now until at least the first week in October. He usually gives Dist. Atty. Jim Garrison's office a week in which to answer defense mo-
; tions.
Shaw was indicated last March on a charge of conspiring with Lee Harvey Oswald and the late David W. Ferric to assassinate president John F. Kennedy in 1963. He has denied
