"This commission Is convinced
first, that the interest of the conn
try at large, and particularly of the
west, will be best served by prompt
return of carriers to private man
agement, reserving to proper state
and national authorities the right to
regulate and review all rates, ser
vices and practices; second, that the
public interest .requires that con

with resultant confusion, by legaliz
ing present rates, both state and In
terstate until such time as the same
are changed by appropriate proceed-
ure before proper regulatory bodies-
with restrictions to prevent 11 lb
hour moves advancing rates before
return. Radical legislation of any
character would inevitably cause dis

would immeasureably affect Indus

Hair Often Rained
By Washing With Soap
Soap should be used very carefully.
if you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(which is pure and greaseless). and
is better than the most expensive
soap of anything else you can use.
One or two teasDOonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough
ly, bimply moisten the hair with wa
ter and rub it in. It makes an abund
ance of rich, creamy lather, which
rinses out easily, removing every par
ticle ot dust, dirt, dandruff and ex
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves the scalp
soft, and the hair fine and silky,
bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to
manage.
You tan get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mem
ber of the family for months.

"I plan to give an iqtimate story

with the league of nations, military

You may want to know my attitude
on the league of nations: I feel the
principle is Tine, but that the league
is still in its infancy and must be
developed before it can be very ef
fective. We should encourage it and
at the same time should not overlook
Its shortcomings. In other words,
we should expect not too much or it

should not discard the principle as
