' Republican Campaign Committee THE republicans are going to go through the gestures of a -campaign this year. At least: a senatorial campaign : committee has been named. This functions, however, chiefly aa a re-election agency, Instead of a body to promote party. It is a weird assortment which Senator McNary, majority - leader, has-assembled. The single thing they have in com mon is their own re-election when their term ends. Other- wise there is little to make Barbour of New Jersy for ex sample, team with, Nye of North Dakota. Democrats are sim j: ilarly divided however. For what in common save a party - label is there between Carter Glass and Burton K. Wheeler of Montana? I I Heading the republican senatorial campaign "committee " will be Hastings oT Delaware, with Dickinson of Iowa as vice . jchairman. The latter has been disposed to sound off in op position to the Roosevelt policies at freqdent Intervals; but ' the general republican policy as adopted by Senator Mc Nary is to reserve fire, give the democrats all the power they want, and let them walkw in their own blunders. There is need for a party of opposition. Discussion with ,in the democratic ranks has been providing more opposition - than that supplied by the republicans. On real recovery leg islation the country's need is paramount. But the zeal for ""recovery should not result in paralysis of thought, in supine surrender of fundamental principles' of sound government Republican defeat in 1932 is no excuse for party disintegra tion and cowardice in the leadership. ; East Meets New East A news report from the 'Jewish Telegraphic agency: ,Attacked by a band of Bedouins armed with sticks and stones, four Jewish tractor drivers were wounded today, two of , them seriously. . . .

The Palestine country has . been filling up with Jews seeking a home in the ancient holv, .land. Organized effort is being made to locate them suc cessfully and permanently; and tractor farming has been introduced as a means to insure their success. This repatriation of Jews is part of the Balfour agree ment, one of the war-time settlements. But hostility of the Arabs and Bedouins has been ceeded the Jews in the country sion' and permanent settlement by the Jews. So clashes have not been infrequent. . . - Economic rivalries serve to keep alive ancient racial and religious hostilities; and only the influence of the British government is able to prevent "worse collisions than the one reported, whare a handful of tribesmen throw! sticks and stones at Jewish tractor drivers. : -'After nine months of scant nublicitv Los Anceles has come forward jwith new headlines for the pririts record breaking rains which spread death and destruction in the area.

What "49 Bottles ifmMM - - '-v n lO t?- Health By Royal S. Copeland, M.D. FAILURE OF elimination la one ot the penalties of modem civilization. We are constantly pointing out that lack of exercise, bign pressure living, faulty posture. inpro per food and lack; of per sonal hygiene, are factors that lead to constipa tion. The cause mast not be overlooked in looking to treat ment and pre. ventlon. In most In stances the duse of this common disorder can be traced to neglect of proper person al habits. Re- Dr. Copeland ganBess of age or the circumstance under which we live, constipation will tuoaaately result if nature's call la persistently disregarded. It has been shown; repeatedly that children who are taucat regular habits at an early age do not suffer from 1 this trouble: But tt la easy to acquire faulty hab its- and always difficult to correct them. Once faulty elimination has become the role, it is exceedingly ilmcuit to overcome. I Require Effort to Cure It is only by strong effort that this stubborn disease becomes curable. I cafl tt a "disease-, because those who suffer from chronic failure of euml. nation are subject to Infections and constitutional disturbances that are not found-la Individuals who are nor mal la their habit No one win deny that canst pa tlon is a stumbling block to rood health. The Victim of this common disorder complain ot lack of "pep". Be suf fers i from mental disturbances as well.5 Many an Individual who Is con stantly "cranky," easily irritated and hard to please, Is a sufferer from the effects of constipation. Faulty dises- tfon. hlch blood pressure, liver and gau bladder disturbances, are often traced to this cause. Do not overlook diet, eltrriae. proper chewing ot food and the rules of hygienlo living. They are vital and necessary for the promotion of proper elimination. These are impor tant factors. ; Haste, neglect and In difference lead to difficulties that are avoidable. i Warning i . May X warn my readers against the use of so-called "constipation medi cines". These medicines are disguised laxatives, 1 They serve their purpose tor a short time, but eventually they do barm and fatl to produce the de sired i effect. Certainly, they . never cur the disturbance. The diet should include an abund ant supply of fresh, fruits and vege tables. " ; Foods that have a naturaT laxative action, such as prunes, apri cots, figs and bran, are beneficial. It Is oftesi advisable to substitute bran, rye and whole wheat bread for white bread. I Toast plays its belpfal part. , Make every effort to correct such anderlying causes as faulty- posture, lack of exercise.

I : Leda was her oldest friend and Leda could not quite believe her. Leda did not care. A great many people would not care. Others would. And that was that. Patricia realised now how far she and the other girl had drifted apart. She J dismissed the notion of bringing up the problem of Clark. ' It was her own problem. When she saw Leda fiance surcepititloualy at the clock, she rose to go. There was ao reason why she should eosa pli cate Leda's relations with Phil Ken. nedy and Phil was among the group who cared and cared passionately about a girl i good name. To him Patricia, this lovely visitor in- her smart, expensive clothes, would be an unfit companion for bis wife.

It was not the little beauty shop own er's way. Life had parted them. Farewell;' farewell to Leda. Fare well, thought Patricia, to the girl that she herself had used to be Patricia knew that she would never be that girl again. The vague, haunting unhappiness of the trip downtown persisted in Patricia throughout the night. She woke to it in the morning.

She thrust the paper at him. pointed. Puzzled, he read of a fruitless police raid on the Sky High club. No liquor had been found. An editorial on the opposite page suggested pointedly that the Sky High owners had been tipped off. That particular den of iniquity. it appeared, waa a pub lie disgrace. Julian glanced quesUoningly at the girl. "Bui McGee owns that club," she said and told him of the visit with Leda and of the other girl's warn ing.

One week had made her sick of wisdom. While Haverholt rang for drinks she flew, upstairs to dress. Blue,; Clark liked blue. The printed chiffon was perfect As- she drifted downstairs, con scious of the effect of deep blue with her smooth skin and blazing hair, conscious above all of Clark's eyes, she wondered if this could be wrong. It did not seem wrong. "I'm glad you decided to come," was all Clark said. It was enough. Her cup overflowed. "Well, are we ready?" asked Ju lian briskly. "I hope you folks will take me aa I am. I decline to dress on a night like this." "I thought you weren't going," said Patricia, surprised. "I discovered in your absence that the- expedition was moving on the Sky Bgh club.
