Rupture Kills
7,000 Annually
Saren thousand persons each year are laid
away—the burial certificate being marked
‘‘Rupture.’’ Why? Because the unfortunate
ones had neglected themselves or had been
merely taking care of the sign (swelling) of
the affliction and paying no attention to
the cause. What are you doing? Are you
neglecting yourself by wearing a truss, ap
pliance, or whatever name you choose to call
it? At best, the truss is only a makeshift,
a false prop, against a collapsing wall—and
cannot be “expected to act as more than a
mere mechanical support. The binding pres
sure retards blood circulation, thus robbing
the weakened muscles of that which they
need most—nourishment.
But science has found away, and every
truss sufferer In the land is invited to make
a FREE test right in the privacy of their
own home. The PLAPAO method is un
questionably the most scientific, logical aad
successful self-trentment for rupture the
world has ever known.
The PLAPAO Pad, when adhering closely
to the body, cannot possibly slip or shift
out of place, therefore cannot chafe or
pinch. Soft as velvet—easy to apply—inex
pensive. To be used whilst you work and
whilst you sleep. No straps, buckles or
springs attached. .

SAVANNAH CITIZENS
WMT SWEDEN.
IN APRIL_ PRIMAHY
A. A. Lawrence and
M. A. O'Byrne Want
Hoover on Ballot
SAVANNAH, Ga., March !).
W. H. Wade, a well-known attor
new, this morning started out to
get 100 names of Savannah vot
ers signed to a petition asking
that Herbert Hoover's name be
placed on the ticket in the com
ing presidential primary in Geor
gia.
He met with remarkable suc
cess. Professional men, newspa
per editors, bankers and business
men signed it without hesitation.
The petition does not commit the
signer to support Mr. Hoover: it
merely asks that the people of
Georgia be given a chance to
vote for him if they desire. It
will be forwarded to the chair
man of the party committee to
night.
Men of eveiy political faction
in Savannah seemed very willing
to attach their signatures to the
petition. A. A. Lawrence is one
of those who signed. M. A.
O’Bi rne is another. Members of
the Savannah cotton exchange
readily attached their signatures.
Early this afternoon Mr. Wade
completed the list of 100 signa
tures to the petition. Out of 110
well-known men in Savannah who
were approached, 100 signed the
petition.

BY BOGEM WINTER
(Staff Correspondent of The Journal)
SAVANNAH, Ga., March 0. —Inter-
est here in presidential politics is
mainly the outgrowth of the sub
committee’s action in shutting Her
bert Hoover but of the preferential
primary, and this interest is wide
spread and plentiful, as The Jour
nal correspondent found by circulat
ing for a day among representative
citizens.
Here, as elsewhere in many places
over the state, the sub-committee’S
action has had the effect of mag
nifying Mr. Hoover’s prominence in
stead of eliminating him as a fac
tor in the preferential primary to
be held on the 20th of April. This
is one Os the strongest impressions
onj gets in sounding sentiment here
and there. If the sub-committee in
tended, as the general public be
lieves, to set aside Mr. Hoover and
make end of Hoover sentiment
by ruling him off the ballot, they
certainly miscalculated the effect of
their action.
At the Savannah hotel yesterday,
The Journal correspondent was priv
ileged to attend a meeting of the
directors of the Tri-State exposition,
which is the organization in charge
of the Savannah fair, and there came
in Contact with a number of the
leading business men of the city.
A. W. Morehouse, a prominent
manufacturer and president of the
fair association, was one of those
with whom The oJurnal correspond
ent talked polities. He is busi

& Ends Stubborn Coughs I
x, in a Hurry |
X For real effectiveness, thia old
X home-made remedy has no equal. T
T Easily and cheaply prepared. v
You’ll never know how quickly a
bad cough can be conquered, until you
try this famous old home-made rem
edy. Anyone who has coughed all
day and all night, will say that the
immediate relief given is almost like
magic. It is very easily prepared,
and there is nothing better for coughs.
Into a pint bottle, put 2% ounces
of Pinex; then add plain granulated
sugar syrup to make a full pint. Or
you can use clarified molasses, honey,
or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup.
Either way, the full pint saves about
two-thirds of the money usually
spent for cough preparations, and
gives you a more positive, effective
remedy. It keeps perfectly, and
tastes pleasant—children like it.
You can feel this take hold instantly,
soothing and healing the membranes
in all the air passages. It promptly
loosens a dry, tight cough, and soon
you will notice the phlegm thin out
and disappear. A day’s use will usually
break up an ordinary throat or chest
cold, and it is also splendid for bron
chitis, croup, hoarseness, and bron
chial asthma.
Pinex is a most valuable concen
trated compound of genuine Norway
pine extract, the most reliable rem
edy for throat and chest ailments.
To avoid disappointment, ask your
druggist for “2y 2 ounces of Pinex”
with directions and don’t accept any
thing else. Guaranteed to give abso
lute satisfaction or money refunded.

HOXIE
NEW YORK.—Miss Ream Con
stance Hoxie was brutally mur
dered by an unknown man who
answered an advertisement for the
renting of a furnished room in the
Hoxie apartment.* Miss HoXie
was alone when the stranger
called. Two hours later the girl’s
body was found in her bedroom.
She had been assaulted and beat
en to death with a blunt instru
ment.
tics, but he is right keenly inter
ested in the presidential election be
cause he believes the country needs
a business man to handle the great
business problems.
“You can put me down as believ
ing that it was unfair and improper
for the sub-committee to shut Mr.
Hoover’s name out of the primary,”
said he. “I am in no sense a poli
tician, but perhaps that is one rea
son why Mr. Hoover seems to me
to be good presidential timber. I
ready to support any movement
that has for its object the placing
of Mr. Hoover’s name on the bal
lot. My position is that the people
ought to be allowed to vote for him
if they want to.”
High-Handed Tactics Scored
Colonel J. Gordon Saussy, promi
nent Savannah lawyer, who was pres
ent at the meeting, expressed the
opinion that Hoover sentiment is
strong in Chatham county.
“I hear a great deal of Hoover talk
here,” said he. “My personal inclina
tion at the present time is to vote
for Palmer, but I do not approve the
action of the subcommittee in shut
ting Mr. Hoover out of the primary.
It amounts to a disfranchisement of
a large number of Georgia Demo
crats, and such high-handed method
will not have a good effect. My opin
ion is that the independent vote is
going to be bigger this year than
ever before. It would not surprise
me to see some old established party
traditions considerably shaken in this
state and this section in the next
election. Party lines have faded
away. We are going to have a new
shuffle and a new deal, so to speak.
If Leonard Wood is, a progressive
Republican and Mitchell. Palmer is
a progressive Deihdcrat, What is the
difference between them? So far as
Mr. Hoover’s democracy is concerned,
it would seem to be satisfactory to
a large number of Democrats. They
are as capable of passing judgment
on his qualifications as the gentlemen
who happen to be in charge of the
party machinery in our state. If
they prefer him as the nominee, no
body has a. right to’ stand in their
way. And it might have a bad after
effect to attempt to stand in their
way.”
Another prominent Savannah man
who was seen by The,. Journal cor
respondent was 8. N. Harris. He is
a business man, a Rotarian and a di
rector in the fair association. He
was named yesterday as chairman
of a committee to formulate the plan
of a campaign to sell SIOO,OOO of
stock In the fair association.
“I do not see any reason why Air.
Hoover's name should not go on the
ballot,” said he. / “Everybody under
stands that he is not a party man,
but that seems to raise him in the
public estimation instead of lovverlng
him. I have not made up my mind
as to hOAv I shall vote in the prefer
ential primary, but I might want to
vote for Mr. Hoover, and in that case
I will be disfranchised.”
Editor Stovall’s Position
Pleasant A. Stovall, editor of the
Savannah Press and former minister
to Switzerland, who returned from
that post a few months ago, and
whose editorials in connection with
the preferential primary have attract
ed attention throughout the state, is
very much against the action taken
by he sub-committee.
“Mr. Hoover has rendered a very
splendid service to the nation and to
humanity,” said he. “It is true that
he was not affiliated with the Demo
cratic party prior to the Avar, as he
states himself. His service rendered
during the Avar was not in the nature
of a party service but a war service,
hence he claims no party credit for it,
although the administration with
whom he Avas associated is a Demo
cratic administration. In the con
gressional elections of 1918, he urged
the election of a Democratic congress
to support the administration. Since
the war his views expressed on public
questions have been very sound. Un
doubtedly, he is looming very large
on the presidential horizon, and the
remarkable thing is that the senti
ment for him has come from the pub-
not from him, as he is not a
candidate. Whether I be for Mr.
Hoover or against him has nothing to
do with my views concerning the sub
committee’s action. The requisite
number of Democrats petitioned for
his name to go on the ballot. They
and all others who Avish to vote upon
him should have that right. The is
sue, as I see it, is not betAveen the
sub-committee and Hoover, but be-’
tween the sub-committee and the
Democratic voters of the state.”

Text of President IPilson’s
Letter to Senator Hitchcock
WASHINGTON, March 9.—The
president’s letter, written in re
sponse to a request that he con
fer With Senator Simmons, of
North Carolina, in charge of the
Democratic side of the senate in
current negotiations for a treaty
compromise, follows in full:
My Dear Senator Hitchcock:
I understand’ that one or two
of your colleagues do me the
honor of desiring to know what
my views are with reference to
Article X of the League of Na
tions and the effect upon the
league of the adoption of cer
tain proposed reservations to
that article. I welcome the op
portunity to throw any light I
can upon a subject which has
become so singularly beclouded
by misapprehensions and misin
terpretations of every kind.
There is no escaping the moral
obligations which are expected
in positive terms in this article
of the covenant. We won a mor
al victory over Germany far
greater even than the military
victory won oh the field of bat
tle, because the opinion of the
whole world swung to our sup
port of the nations associated
with us in the great struggle.
It did so because of our common
profession and promise that we
meant to establish “an organi
zation of peace which should
make it certain that the com
bined power of free nations
would check every invasion of
right and serve to make peace
and justice the more secure by
affording a definite tribunal of
opinion to which all must sub
mit and by which every inter
national readjustment that can
not be amicably agreed upon by
the peoples directly concerned
shall be sanctioned. This prom
ise and assurance were written
into the preliminaries and the
armistice and into the prelimi
naries of the peace itself and
constitute one of the most sa
cred obligations ever assumed
by any nation or body of na
tions. It is unthinkable that
America should set the exam
ple of ignoring such a solemn
moral engagement.
Fledge to Soldiers
For I feel that I could
not look the soldiers of our gal
lant armies in the face again
if I did not do everything in
my power to remove every ob
stacle that lies in the way of
the adoption of ‘his particu
lar article of the covenant, be
cause we made these pledges
to them as well as to the rest
of the world and it was to this
cause they deemed themselves
devoted in a spirit of crusaders.
I should be forever unfairhful
to them if I did not do my ut
ippst to fulfill the high purpose
for which they fought.
I think, my dear senator, we
can dismiss from our minds the
idea that it is necessary to stip
ulate in connection with article
ten the constitutional methods
we should .use in fulfilling our
obligations under it. We gain
nothing by such stipulations and
secure nothing which is not al
ready secured. It was under
stood as a matter of course at
the conference in Paris ttiat
whatever obligations any gov
ernment assumed or whatever
duties it undertook under the
treaty would of course have to
be fulfilled by its usual and es
tablished constitutional methods
of action. Once or ttvice in
meetings of the conference, when
the treaty was under consider
ation, “reservations” were made
to that effect by the represent
atives of individual powers and
those “reservations” were inva
riably received in the way in
which men have who have met
for business and not for talk
always receive acts of scrupu
lous superioragatiOn—listened
to with indifferent silence as
Such men listen to what is a
matter of course and was not
necessary to say.
There can be no objection to
explaining again what our con
stitutional method is and that
our congress alone can declare
war or determine the causes or
occasions for war, and that it
alone can authorize the use of
the armed forces of the United
States on land or on the sea.
But to make such a declaration
would certainly be a work of
supereorgation.
Curbs Imperialism
I am sorry to say that the
reservations that have come
under my notice are, almost
without exception, not interpre
tations of the articles to which
it is proposed to attach them,
but in effect virtual nullifications
of those articles.
Any reservations which seek
to deprive the League of Na
tions of the force of article ten
cuts at the very heart and life of
the covenant itself. Any League
of Nations which does not guar
antee as a matter of incontest
abl eright the political independ
ence and integrity of each of its
members might be hardly more
than a futile scrap of paper, as
ineffective in operation as the
agreement between Belgium and
Germany which the Germans
violated in 1914. Article ten as
written into the treaty of Ver
sailles represents the renuncia
tion by Great Britain and Japan
which before the war had begun
to find so many interests in com
mon in the Pacific; by France;
by Italy—by all the great fight
ing powers of the world, of the
old pretentions of political con
quest and territorial aggran
dizement. It is a new doctrine
in the world’s affairs and must
be recognized or there is no se
cure basis for the peace which
the whole world so longingly
desires and so desperately needs.
If article ten is not adopted and
acted upon, the governments
which reject it will, I think, be
guilty of bad faith to their peo
ple whom they induced to make
the infinite sacrifices of the war
by the pledge that they would
be fighting to re ieern the world
from the old order cf force and
aggression. They will be acting
also in bad faith to the opinion
of the world at large to which
they appealed for support in a
concerted stand against the ag
gressions and pretentions of Ger
many. If we were to reject ar
ticle ten or so to weaken it as
to take its full force out of It, It
would mark us as desiring to re
turn to the old world of jealous
rivalry and misunderstandings
from which our gallant soldiers
have relieved us, and would leave
us without any vision or new
conception of justice and peace.
We would have learned no lesson
from the war, but gained only
the regret that it had involved
us in its maelstrom of suffering.
If America has awakened as the
rest of the world has to the
Vision of a new day in which
the mistakes of the past are to
be corrected, it will welcome the
opportunity to share the respon
sibilities of article ten.
The Choice
The imperialist wants no
League of Nations, but, if in re
sponse to the universal cry oi
the masses everywhere there is
to be one. he is interested to
secure one suited to his own
purposes, one that will permit
him to continue the historic
garrie of pawns and peoples
the juggling, of provinces, the
old balances ofpower and the
inevitable wars attendant upon
these ’things,' The reservation
proposed would perpetuate the
old order. Does anyone really
wi nt to sei6 the old game
played again? Can anyone really
venture to take part in revising
the old order? The enemies oi
a League ’of- Nations have by
every true instinct centered theii
efforts agairis;t : Article X, for it
i« undoubtedly the foundation oi
the whole structure. It is the
o.uwark and the only bulwark
of the rising democracy of the
world against the forces of im
perialism and reaction.
It must not be forgotten, sen
ator, that this article constitutes
a renunciation of wrong ambi
tion on the part of powerful na
il, ons with whom we were asso
ciated in the war. It is by no
means certain that without this
article any such renunciation
will take place. Militaristic am
bitions and imperialistic policies
ate by ho means dead even in the
councils of the nations whom we
most desire to be associated in
the tasks of peace. Throughout
the sessions of the conference
in Paris it was evident that a
militaristic party, under the
most influential leadership, was
seeking to gain ascendancy in
the councils of France. They
were defeated then, but are in
control now*. The chief argu
ments advanced in Paris in sup
port of the Italian claims on the
Adriatic were strategic argu
ments; that is to say, military
arguments, which had at their
back the thought of naval su
premacy in that sea. For my
own part, I am as intolerant
of imperialistic designs on the part
of other nations as I was of
such designs on the part of Ger
many.
The choice is between the
ideals; c i the one hand, the
ideal of democracy, which rep
resents the rights of free peo
ples eveiywhere to govern them
selves, and on the other hand,
the idea of imperialism, which
seeks to dominate by force and
unjust power an ideal which is
by no means dead and which is
e.irnestly held in many quarters
still. Every imperialistic influ
ence in Europe was hostile to
the embodiment of Article X
in the covenant of the League
of Nations, .nd its defeat now,
would mark the complete con
summation of their efforts to
nullify the treaty. I hold the
doctrine of Article X to be the
essense of Americanism.
chnnot repudiate it or weaken
it without at the same time re-
'•■‘’ng our own principles.
Work For Humanity
Either W 0 should enter the
league fearlessly, accepting the
responsibility and not fearing
the role of leadership which
we can now enjoy, contributing
our efforts towards establishing
a just and permanent peace, or
we should retire as gracefully
as possible from the great con
cert of powers by which the
world was saved. For my own
part, I am not willing to trust
to the counsel of diplomats the
working out of any salvation of
the world from the things which
it has suffered.
I believe that when the full
significance of this great ques
tion has been generally appre
nended, obstacles will seem in
significant before the opportu
nity, a great and glorious op
portunity to contribute our
overwhelming moral and mate
rial force to the establishment
of an international regime in
which our own ideals of justice
and right may be made to pre
vail and the nations of the
world oe allowed a peaceful
development under conditions of
order and safety hitherto im
possible.
I need not say, senator, that
i have given a great deal of
thought to the whole matter
of reservations proposed in con
nection with the ratification of
the treaty and particularly that
portion of the treaty which con
tains the covenant of the League
of Nations and I have been
struck by the fact that prac
tically every so-called reserva
tion was in effect a rather
sweeping nullification of the
terms of the treaty itself. I
hear of reservations and mild
reservationists, but I cannot un
derstand the difference between
a nullifier and a mild nullifier
Dur Responsibility as a nation
in this turning point of history
is an overwhelming one, and if
I had the opportunity I would
beg everyone concerned to con
sider the matter in the light of
what it is possible to accomplish
for humanity rather than ’n the
light of special national inter
ests.
If I have been truly informed
concerning the desire of some
of your colleagues to know my
views in this matter, I would
be very glad if you should show
this letter to them.
Martens Excused
From Probe Committee
WASHINGTON, March 9.—Ludwig
C. A. K. Martens,agent of the Hus
sain soviet government, was tempo
rarily excused from attendance at
today’s session of the senate com

aganda in the United States. Agents
of the department of justice were
again on hand ready to arrest Man
tens on a deportation warrant as
soon as the committee had finished
with him, but Chairman Moses an
nounced that his absence had been
arranged for and that “his rights
would be protected” during sessions
at which he was absent.

COTTON MEN SEE
ATLANTA AS BIG
MARKETOFSQUTH
The ever-increasing prominence of
Atlanta as a cotton concentration
point is becoming generally recog
nized, according to R. E. Chandon,
of New Orleans, who is here in com
pany with A. Georges Gund, of
i France, for business conferences
with local cotton factors. Mr. Chau
don is connected with the firm of
Denn'is & Brown, of New Orleans,
and< Gund represents foreign cot
ton interests.
“The time is not far distant when
Atlanta will be the largest cotton
concentration point in the world, and
one of the most active spot markets
in the country,” said Mr. Chaudon.
Tuesday morning, at the offices of
John R. Ellis, president of the Cot
ton Warehouse company. “The im
portance of Atlanta is recognized
generally among cotton men all over
the country, and with adequate ware
house facilities for the storage of
cotton it is but a questiori of time
until Atlanta's pre-eminence will be
thoroughly established and recogniz
ed all over the world. It scarcely
I is necessary to comment upon the
I business importance of Atlanta’s de
! veiopment as the chief cotton con
centration point. It will be reflect
ed in every line of industry and will
add immeasurably to the permanence
of the city’s material prosperity.”
“When one considers the admirable
location of .Atlanta and its network
of railways radiating in all direc
tions, it seems remarkable that the
city has not heretofore occupied a
more prominent place as a concen
tration point for cotton, but the
development in recent years indicates
quite clearly what may be expected
in the future.
“It is a source of gratification to
cotton men generally throughout the
country that plans are now under
way for the provision of ample and
adequate warehouse facilities in At
lanta. These additional warehouses,
one of which is to be erected by the
Cotton Warehouse company, will
contribute to bring more and more
cotton to the cityj for storage and
distribution.
“The expansion of the Atlantic
Compress company, under the man
agement of Richard Willingham, will
supply additional storage quarters,
that will contribute further to the
growth of the Atlanta market.”
Mr. Gund, who served for fifty
months in the French army, and
who wears many decorations for
valor, has been in America only a
few weeks. He is here to study
the cotton business from the practi
cal side, since, as he says, the
French people are going to engage
in the manufacture of cotton goods
on a much larger scale than before
the ivar.
“The cotton mills that were de
stroyed in the war are being rebuilt
at this time,” said he. “Others will
be erected, also, and in a relatively
short time France will be importalng
American cotton on a far greater
scale than ever .before.”

YOU NEVER CM
TffIUJLO CAT
Mr. Dodson Warns Against
Use of Treacherous, Dan
gerous Calomel
Calomel salivates! It’s mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into
it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get a bottle of
Dodson’s Liver Tone for a few Vents
which is a harmless vegetable sub
stitute for dangerous calomel. Take
a spoonful and if it doesn’t start
your liver and straighten you up bet
ter and quicker than nasty calomel
and Avithout making you sick, you
just go back and get your money.
If you take calomel today you’ll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; be
sides, it may salivate you, while if
you take Dodson's Liver Tone you
will Avake up feeling great, full of
ambition and ready for vrork or play.
It’s harmless, pleasant and safe to
give to children; they like it.
