GLEJHED 111 111. now Judge Robert Peter in Mont gomery county circuit court yester day, ordered expunged from the grand jury report its reference to the Independent, anti-political ma chine newspaper, its editor and the grand jury report of an alleged in vestigation of charges made by this newspaper against the county polit ical machine. Attorney Harold C. Smith for the Independent contended that tht grand jury had wandered far afield from its authority prescribed by law in attacking an individual or a group of individuals in such a manner that they were given no chance to defend themselves or prove the truth or falsity of the charges. Attorney Smith asked that all ref erences to the Independent and the investigation the grand jury claimed to have made be stricken out in the interest of fair play and justice. Judge Peter, ordered the clerk to strike from the record two of the paragraphs mentioned and to order the newspapers not to print them. He took the rest of the document under advisement and Intimated that other paragraphs may be stricken out at an parly date. Morris Bealle, editor of the Inde pendent, in a statement to The Washington Times, denied cate gorically the Inferences made by the grand jury, in its report and also denied that the jury has in vestigated any of . the exposures made by his newspaper. <( Damn 99 Under Stress O. K. for Women Modern femininity may go as far as using “damn” and still not actually swear, at least from a legal standpoint, Judge Isaac R. Hitt decided yesterday in Police Court. The opinion on the status of < fervent language came up in the course of the hearing of charges against Mrs. Vallie McGinnis, of the 3200 block of Minnesota Ave. S. E., who was accused of disorderly con duct by her neighbor. Mrs. Lillian Brodie. A typical problem of the house holder, that of getting in the win ter’s supply of coal, led to the dif ficulties between Mrs. McGinnis and Mrs. Brodie. Detour Brought Trouble Excavations for a new street have closed the right of way in front x»f their homes which heretofore have been located on a “theoretical” street. A truck, bringing fuel to the home of Mrs.- McGinnis was compelled to detour, and Mrs. Brodie claims, ran over her lawn, crushing a water pipe and wall. Prior to that, says Mrs. Brodie, she ordered the truck ijriver not to come by that route.* but Mrs. Mc- Ginnis told him to come on and run over her if necessary, she claimed. Several witnesses differed over the strength of an adjective Mrs. McGinnis was said to have applied to the complainant, their opinions running from “darn” far up the scale of expletives. Just Bywords Attorney Michael M. Doyles for the defendant, said that learned jurists have held that to swear in a legal way one must use the name TAe Nation*! Daily ’of the Deity. “Damn," “Hell,” etc., are mere bywords, he said. Furthermore. Attorney Doyle con tended, “damn” is an expression to be easily condoned when one is wrestling with the problem of get ting in the winter coal. Even the court might, under the stress of such an emergency, use such a word, he said. He admitted that Mrs. McGinnirf might have said “damn” Judge Hitt also held that such an utterance did not constitute swearing. The unusual problems created by the excavating had caused the trouble, the court re marked, and enjoined the disputants to take into consideration the fact that such things as streets being torn up must happen. The charges against Mrs. McGin nis, who was In tears as she left the courtroom, were dismissed.

Brown, chief of the Bureau of Efficiency, is attempting to work out a plan whereby local hospital* may be reimbursed by the District government immediately for the treatment of indigent patients. Under the present system the hos pitals have to wait anywhere from six months to two years to collect from the District for the treatment of poor patients. The rate paid for these treatments is $2 a day. This situation was the subject of a conference yesterday between Brown, Representative Ernest W. Gibson of Vermont and Mrs. Frank W. Noyes. Mrs. Noyes urged the adoption of some pfan whereby the hospitals could collect their money more promptly. At, the end of the conference Brown announced he would begin his study by finding out how much the District now owes the hospitals and ask the Bureau of the Budget to recommend an appropriation suf ficient to pay it. He will then submit a program by which the money for the treat ment of these pa tients can be car ried- In the regular appropriation bills Instead of the deficiency bills.

If you clear-up the condition with some laxative made with CASCARA, there Is nothing" better for the sys tem —for the blood/ But if you don’t KNOW the laxa tive you have learned to depend on is of harmless cascara, here's some truly valuable advice: The bark of a tree called cascara is the most marvelous conditioner mankind has yet found. It stimu lates the bowel’s muscplar, action, but does NOT weaken. A violent laxative forms the laxative HABIT. You always need more on the mor row. With cascara, you don’t. Its gentle Influence carries on some times for days. With less and less need of any aid, as time goes on. So, the’ very qext time you feel sluggish, take only a candy Caa- "cascarets Th?)/ Work While You Sleep 1 1 has announced that ha will start Friday -at dawn on hi* MOO-mile good-will flight from Naw York to Bogota.

Delightful to the taste, sweet and acceptable to any stomach, and just as (efficient as ths powerful purges that fairly paralyse the per istaltic walls of one's intestines. The only habit you'll get from Cascarets is the one of going weeks and months without ANY help of the kind. And when you do Invoke their aid again, the same small dose suffices. Any doctor can tell you about cascara; and any druggist has the candy CascareU.
