I NEW VISION IS NEEDED They were bilking about the depression, and a young woman told how friends of hers, living on a farm, had suf fered great losses. Their farm equipment had gone to pieces, their car was a wheezing wreck, they wore old patched clothing, and they were hanging on to their farm only by virtue of the mortgage-holders tolerance. ''. And an old lady who listened to the conversation smiled gently and began to compare the plight of depression's vic tims with the early lives of her own parents, who had opened up a farm back in the pioneer era. "Your friends," she said, "have had a terrible time, and they, have a lot to worry about but do they really know what privation means? Did they ever get through a winter on cornmeal and bacon, as my parents did repeatedly? Have Oiey lived through month after month completely isolated, with the nearest neighbor 15 miles away and no way of .com munication with him in case of need? "They've lost everything yet they still have their elec tricity to light their farm and pump their water and lighten their laundry work. Their farm machinery has run down but my parents had no farm machinery at all. Their auto is a wreck but at least they have it, and it still runs and it will take them places in a tenth of the time it took my parents to move about. They're wearing old clothing but they didn't have to weave the cloth it was made of, or cut and sew the cloth once it was woven." Now that little comparison between today's troubles and the everyday life of our forefathers may be pretty cold comfort for a family that hashbeen hit by the depression. Yet it is something worth thinking about. Bad as times have been and they have been cruelly bad it pays to remind ourselves that even the worst that we have today is in miany respects better than the best that our grandparents had. The obvious reply to that, of course, is that the pioneers could endure hardships because they felt themlselves to be part of a great movement. They were notiying for the present, but for the future; They could discount privation, because they saw a richer and happier time ahead of them. Well, that's true enough but can't we do the same? The finest thing that has happened to us in-this last year is the fact that we have had a rebirth of national solidarity. We seem all headed in the same direction once more. There is in the air again a feeling that the whole country is work ing together for the common good. The vision similar to that sustained the pioneers may be used by all of us.

Miss Bess Duke will handle the publicity, "WAS TAKING EVERY KIND OF DRUG FOR CONSTIPATION" Then All-Bean Brought Relief Credit Expansion To Follow Devaluation (Continued From Page One) prize of government securities. The potentialities of this big addi tion to the nation's monetary gold stock, It Is pointed out. may be seen In the fact that an increase In the country's gold of nearly $2,400,000,000 from 1914 to 1929 was accompanied by a Jump In bank credit of more than $36,000,000,000. Furthermore banking authorities explain, such an Increase In gold would support a theoretical maximum Increase, ac cording to the workings of our hank ing system, of several times that. The action of the president In au thorising the treasury both to buy and sell gold at $36 an ounce, In the opinion of foreign exchange ex perts, may largely solve the problem of stabilizing the dollar, particularly insofar as the gold countries are con cerned. It Is therefore possible that the stabilization fund may not have to devote much attention to the In ternational money market, and may concentrate upon domestic problems. Read this very enthusiastic letter: "I am 34 years old and as far back in my life I have been consti pated. I was so bad that I had one bowel movement every five or six days. I was taking every kind of drug known for constipation. "Now for the last two months I have been eating a little AliBran night and morning and I have at least two to three bowel movements each day." Mr. Frank Piratzky, 40-66 98th St., Corona, Long Island, New York. Laboratory tests show Kcllogg's All-Bran provides "bulk" and vitamin B to aid elimination. All Bran is also a fine source of iron for the blood. The "bulk" in All-Bran is much like that in leafy vegetables. In side the body, it forms a soft mass.
