The reason this famous root and herb

Kelly’s case was because it went to the
root of her trouble, restored her to a
normal healthy condition and as a result
her nervousness disappeared.

WILL LOWER HIGH
COST OF LIVING
BOARD IS NAMED TO REDUCE THE
COST OF ALL NECESSARY
COMMODITIES
GOVERNMENT TO CUT PRICES
Basic Commodities Will Be Considered
First And Brought To Stable
Basis
Washington.—Completion of the per
sonnel of the industrial board of the
department of commerce, together
with the plans of the board for hasten
ing the return of prices and wages to
a normal level, was announced through
the council of national defense.
Associated with George N. Peek, of
Moline, 111., a former member of the
war industries board, as chairman of
the new organization, are Samuel P.
Bush, of Columbus, Ohio; Anthony
Caminetti, commissioner of immigra
tion; Thomas K. Glenn, of Atlanta;
George R. James, of Memphis; T. C.
Powell, of Cincinnati, and William M.
Ritter, of West Virginia.
The chief purpose of the new board,
it is announced, is to bring about the
operation of the laws of supply and
demand, interfered with by the pro
cesses of war. To this end conferences
will be held with representatives of
the chief industries “to decide on the
prices to be offered to the nation as
the governmentally approved judg
ment on a price scale low enough to
encourage buying and the resumption
to normal activities.”
“As soon as a stable and wholesome
scale of prices is achieved,” says the
announcement, “the cost of living will
have so far been reduced as to create
automatically reductions in the price
of labor without interfering with
American standards and ideals for the
treatment and living conditions of la
bor, and thus the last inflating ele
ment will have been withdrawn from
prices. It is believed that industry
will agree that the cost of living must
be substantially reduced before labor
should be asked to accept lower wages
and thus industry should stand the
first shock of readjustment.”
ALLIES RESOLVED TO MAKE
GERMANY YIELD HER SHIPS
Negotiations About Merchant Ships To
Be Resumed By Supreme
Council
Paris. —The plans adopted by the su
preme war council under which the
negotiations with the German author
ities regarding the turning over of the
German merchant ships will be resum
ed, after their recent interruption at
Spa, provide for the holding of the
sessions of the negotiators at Brussels.
The allied delegates will leave Paris
for the Belgian capital and the first
session in the resumption of the ne
gotiations will probably be held in one
of the government palace.
The plans determined upon by the
council, as already stated, provide for
taking over the German merchant
ships in return for a food supply for
Germany until the next harvest. The
chief difficulty thus far has been over
the manner of payment for the food
supplies, but the new proposals are ex
pected to meet the former objections.
It is understood that the payments
will come from three sources: first, in
the form of products, such as coal and
potash; second, from credits which
Germany has in neutral countries
which thus far have been unavailable
because of the financial blockade; and
third, from foreign securities held by
Germany.
It is estimated that these three
sources will readily yield about five
hundred milllion dollars, which is the
sum required to pay for food relief
to an extent considered adequate to
carry the Germans until the time of
their harvest.
French Seek Trace Of 314,000 Missing
Paris. —On the casualty list of the
French army, the word “missing” is
written opposite the name of 314,000
men. Investigations which have been
conducted have resulted in establish
ing the fact that of this number all
hope for approximately 120,000 must
be abandoned.
LOOK OUT FOR THE
SEVENTEEN-YEAR LOCUST
Washington.—Great swarms of the
17-year locust will infest the United
States in late May and early in June,
this year, which is expected by sci
entists to be one of the worst “locust
years’’ on record. The 17-year locust
comes at long intervals and is no
more than an ordinary non-poisonous
insect pest, which can do little dam
age if proper precautions are taken.
It was once regarded as a harbinger
of disaster.
HENRY COUNTY WEEKLY. McDONOUGH GEORGIA.
U. S. TO SIILMIUN KUAOS
Director Hines Says Lines Will Not
Be Relinquished Because Con
gress Failed To Provide
Washington.—The government de
termined to retain control of the rail
roads despite failure of congress to
provide funds for the railroad admin
istration, and to have the roads finance
themselves for the next few months
through private loans on the open mar
ket, or through advances by the war
finance corporation.
Effort will be made to maintain oper
ations on a normal scale and to carry
on as much of the improvement pro
gram as possible, in order to avoid
throwing employees out of work or
otherwise disturbing industrial condi
tions. No attempt will be made to
solve the problem by raising rates.
These assurances were given by Di
rector General Hines in a public state
ment and in an address to the confer
ence of governors and mayors meet
ing here. At the same time it devel
oped that the war finance corporation
has about $337,000,000 resources avail
able, and much of this may go to rail
roads to supplement the sums they can
borrow until congress meets again and
has opportunity to appropriate funds.
After protracted conferences be
tween Secretary Glass and other offi
cials of the treasury and war finance
corporation, it was stated that means
probably would be developed to keep
the railroads off the money market as
much as possible, and minimize inter
ference with the forthcoming Victory
Liberty loan.
Although officials appeared optimis
tic they explained that much manipu
lating of financial machinery would be
necessary, and a definite program
could not be developed for some time.
Their somewhat cheerful attitude was
in contrast to the rather pessimistic
utterances of Secretary Glass and Di
rector General Hines before the senate
appropriations committee in executive
session, commenting on the possibility
of the appropriation’s failure. The tes
timony has been made public.
TREATY OF PEACE
ONE STEP NEARER
American Plan To Have Commissions
Present Reports and Conclusions in
Peace Preliminaries Is Adopted
Paris. —A step toward the formation
of a treaty of peace was taken by the
supreme council when it adopted the
proposal of the American delegation
to have the various commission pres
ent to the council their reports and
conclusions in the form of articles to
he inserted in the peace preliminaries.
The council also discussed the mil
itary, naval and aerial conditions to
be imposed on the enemy.
The official communication on the
session says;
“The supreme council of the allies
met from 3 to 6 o’clock.
“The council accepted the American
proposal that the commissions should
be asked to present with their reports
their conclusions in the form of arti
cles to be inserted in the peace prelim
inaries.
“The discussion then turned to the
naval, military and air conditions to
be imposed on the enemy.
REVOLT OF GERMANS
QUELLED BY BAYONET
Sanguinary Engagements Are Report
ed Between Czech Soldiers
and Teutons
Vienna. —There have been sangu
inary engagements between Czecho
soldiers and citizens in numerous
towns in German Bohemia, according
to reports received here.
The trouble started when the Ger
mans attempted to hold elections for
the Austrian national assembly in
Vienna, which the Czech government
prohibited because Bohemia is Czech
territory. The Germans organized
manifestations against Czech rule, and
the Czechs used rifles and bayonets
in suppressing the demonstrations.
Three persons are reported to have
been killed at Karlsbad and ten at
Sternberg.
A number of others are reported to
have been killed or wounded in clashes
at Reichenberg, Aussig, Bruex, Eger
and Mies.
ROBBERS GET $62,600
FROM MESSENGER BOY
IN NEW YORK CITY
New York. —Gustave Mignone, a
youth of 20, was arrested by the Brook
lyn police on a charge of robbery in
connection with the theft of $62,600 in
securities from Milton Strohm, a Wall
street messenger boy. The police de
clare Mignone confessed, implicating
three other boys, for whom they are
now searching. Strohm was robbed
of $49,000 worth of Liberty bonds and
$13,600 other securities.
CANADIAN TROOPS
RIOT IN ENGLAND
BLOODY OUTBREAK OCCURRED
BECAUSE OF DELAY IN
EMBARKATION
MANY KILLED AND WOUNDED
One Major Trampled To Death While
Defending Quarters Of
The Officers
London. —From eight to twenty-sev
en persons are estimated to have been
♦
killed and from twenty to twenty-five
to seventy-three wounded in rioting
during three days at the Kimmel mili
tary camp at Rhyl; Wales, according to
a Liverpool dispatch received here.
Great property damage was caused, the
dispatch adds.
According to latest reports from Liv
erpool the riot was started by about
two hundred malcontents. There were
twenty-five thousand Canadians in the
camp awaiting demobilzation and em
barkation. The men who caused the
trouble were war casuals who had
served for three years or more In
France. They complained that their
embarkation had been postponed while
other men who had seen less service
were sent home.
After the destruction of stores of all
kinds by the discontented men, the
situation took a more serious turn
when the cavalry was called out, but
was forbidden to use its arms.
Troops from Chester intercepted
the rioters in their march upon Aber
gele, near Rhyl, and also prevented a
threatened raid on the latter place.
Five men were killed and forty injured
in the course of this fighting, it is re
ported.
There was further promiscuous
shooting the next day, but at no time
was there organized firing -by any
armed party. Most of the deaths were
due to crushing, it is said. An un
named major holding the Victoria
Cross and believed to be from New
Brunswick, is reported to have been
virtually trampled to death while at
tempting to defend the officers’ quar
ters against great odds.
The Daily Mail says the Canadian
authorities restored order without the
assistance of British troops and de
clares that the matter is solely one
for Canadian disciplinary action.
The Canadian officials have inform
ed the war office that they do not de
sire any increase in shipping facili
ties as a consequence of the outbreak,
as they do not intend to be coerced
by the action of the rioters. It is
stated that twenty or thirty of the
ringleaders, most of foreign extrac
tion, have been arrested by the Can
adian authorities, co-operating with
the civilian police. It is understood
that these men will be brought to
London and lodged in the Bow street
station.
GERMANY REFUSES TO
DELIVER UP HER SHIPS
Negotiations Relating To Surrender
Of German Merchant Fleet To
Allies Broken Off
The negotiations at Spa, relating to
the shipping question have been tem
porarily broken off, according to a
German wireless dispatch received
here.
The allies, the message says, de
manded that all the remaining Ger
man merchant ships be handed over
unconditionally, without being willing
to undertake the obligation of supply
ing Germany with foodstuffs. The
German delegates, it is added, received
instructions from their government
that the question of shipping, finance
and food supply must be dealt with only
as a whole. The German message con
tinues:
“The question of handing over the
mercantile fleet can only arise if ade
quate food supply, say 2,500,000 tons
of foodstuffs, are assured Germany un
til the new harvest. The entente
would not agree to this.
“As the instructions of both sides
did not go beyond this, a French dele
gate proposed that negotiations be
broken off, whereupon the two special
delegations left Spa.”

A laxative today saves a sick child

Look at the tongue, mother! If

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. It is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two 6izes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten centß to Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this p^per.—Adv.
