Exceeding He Scope of
Authority,
i (By George H. Manning.)
j WASHINGTON". D. C.. Feb. 28. The
: Federal Power Commission was
charged during debate in the senate
over the bill granting authority to
engage a personnel sufficient to carry
on Its work, with exceeding the scope
of Its authority and unnecessarily de
laying; development of waterpower pro
jects through going too deeply Into
detail.
Senator Underwood of 'Alabama,
democratic loader, attacked the al
leged plan of the Commission to sur
vey and review the entire system of
rivers in the United States before
granting licenses for development of
waterpower project.
Joining in the attack Senator Wes
ley Jones of "Washington, charged that
whenever Congress vested some gov
ernment commission with power to
carry on some work It straightway de
vises some means for enlarging the
scope of its work, regaining a big
office force and doing a lot of things
Congress did not contemplate.
Senior King of Utah charged the

The battleship Ostfrlealand, captured from the Germans, has been designated by the navy for a bombing test to as
certain what damage army aviators can do to battleships. General William Mitchell, Inset, chief of the U. S. air ser
vice, asked for the test to prove his claim that aircraft have made battleships obsolete.

derwood. T now .understand it is the
policy of the Water Powor Commis
sion to survey and review the entire
system of rivers in the United States
befora it grants a single permit. If
the commission now intends to block
the processes of development of the
waterpowers by undertaking a survey
that will require another 13 years to
complete, I shall certainly resist ap
propriations along that line. I 'nm
willing to give the commission the ftp-'
propriations needed to give reasonable
opportunity to perform its functions
and serve the people, but if it is to
allow ambition to run away with it
and cause further delay I am op
posed to it."
Senator Jones said he agreed with
everything the Alabama senator said,
but said he did not wish to give the
commission excuse for further delay
by refusing appropriations for the
clerical help it asked.
"This oommssion is doing just like
every other commission or bureau that
we create," said Senator King of
Utah; "It reaches out and extends its
authority and refuses to act until its
personnel is swollen far beyond the
dreams of Congress when the act cre
ating it was passed.
"This bureau refuses to grant per
mits where the technical evidence is
before it wh e, indeed it needs no
technical evidence. It wants to apply
to little streams a general compre
hensive red tape system. It is trying
to ace how it may not act rather than
effectively acting and facilitating de
velopment of water power. I have
had many complaints against the in
activity and bureaucratic methods of
this organization. It is standing there
doing nothing except interposing ob
stacles to the development of water
power. v e ought to Incorporate in
this bill an amendment requiring the
commission to act upon every applica
tion made within not exceeding six
months. As it Is now, they do not
act and they never will act."
"But we have got to give them the
force," said Senator Jones.
"Oh, they have had a sufficient
force," replied Senator King, "but they
want to build up a great bureaucracy;
they want to swell their personnel
until they have hundreds of em
ployees.". Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska,
democrat, ihen objected to passage of
the bill and it was laid aside without
final action.
MILLER TIRES
HAVE GOOD RECORD
Maintain Reputation for Reliability
Over Long Period.
Buying automobile tires is- like buy
ing eggs. All look very much alike
the bad ones look as good as the good
ones, and the "no-name" tires as well
as the product of which any manufac
turer may well be proud.
The "gyp" tire may have all the
beauty and symmetry of the nationally
known tire and yet be made out of
shoddy. It's not reasonable to believe
that a motorist can get a tire "just
as good" as standard make for half
the price.
The tire owner who buys bargain
tires is like the woman who bought
a dozen eggs from a "friend" at 10
cents below the price her groceryman
quoted. When sh'bVoke the shells,
four of them we'e bad, so the eight
good eggs cos,t' her more than the
grocery man's jprice.
In car mileage, it's not first costs
that count but costs per'mile. Adding
the cost of repairs to the purchase
price and dividing by the mileage will
quickly convince even thp most con
firmed bargain hunter. ,
Cost comparisons personallyconcern
every buyer of tires. One of Akron's
"Big Four" has not only maintained
"before-the-war" tiro mileage prices
but actually reduced mileage costs 44
per cent. Within three years this
company has also increased its mile
age 115 per cent. It is only natural
that Miller sales have i increased 500
per cent since the pre-war period.

EXPORTING SOLUTION
OF UNEMPLOYMENT
NEW YORK. Feb. 28 Ex porting on
a great scale, as a solution of nation
wide unemployment, is urjr'-l by W.
F. Wyman, chairman of the foreign
banking conference.
"The United States has no real
choice," satd Mr. Wyman. "Either it
must be content to face nation-wide
unemployment or it must be a serious
exporter."
TAMPA, Feb. 28. "Of course I am
for abolition of the free cattle range,
without which the Texas fever tick
cannot be entirely eradicated," said
Capt. R. E. Rose, veteran sate chem
ist, while visiting Tampa last week,
"and I hope the legislature will per
mit the people to vote for its aboli
tion at the general election in No
vember. Floridians should call on
them for that privilege."
"How do range and forest fires af
fect land?" Capt. Rose, who has been
Florida's state chemist for twenty
years.
;One biff fire," he replied, "will
destroy the humus, the water-holding
sponge of soil, so completely that the
land will br unfit for cultivation for
several years. It would be impossible
to estimate the loss sustained by Flor
ida through fires set by caitie men
since I came to the state as superin
tendent of. the Disston drainage pro
ject in the Kissimmee Valley forty
years ago."
Capt. Rose strongly endorsed the
plan of the Florida No-Fence League
to ask the legislature to sumbit the
proposition to a vote of the people.
"Take It In Time
DO you know that by tar the larger number of the common .
ailments of women are not surgical ones ; that is they are
not caused by any serious displacement, tumor, growth, or other

DO you know that these common ailments produce symptoms

DO you know that many women and young girls suffer need

their health by allowing their ailments to continue and develop
into something serious.

It is prepared with accuracy and cleanliness from medicinal plants. It con

The Vegetable Compound acts on the conditions which bring about these

GRAY HAIR NOW
WASHINGTON, Feb. 28. The army
will have an airship capable of carry
ing 100 passengers in addition Lo the
crew when the great Italian semi
rigid dirigible "Koma," recently pur
chased, arrives. An air service de
tachment is en route to Italy to de
flate the big bag and bring it home
on ship board.
The "Roma" driven by six twelve
cylinder engines developing an aggre
gate of 2,400 horsepower, has a lifting
capacity of 65,000 pounds. She can
carry nearly 19 tons through the air
in addition, to herself and her crew
at an estimated maximum speed of
SO miles an hour. The big gas bag.
holding 1.200,000 cubic feet of gas, is
longer than all but the most modern
war craft, 4101 feet, and is 82 feet wide
while bag and' car tower to a height
of S6 feet, six inches.
With filled gasoline tanks the ship
has a full speed radius of 350 miles
and at cruising speed could go 800
miles without landing.
The "Roma" was constructed under
per-jonal supervision of Signor I'suelli
whose name has been applied to air
craft of that particular type. She was
designed for commercial uses orig
inally, but was sold to the TJ. S. for
$200,000. It would cost Jl, 250,000 to
duplicate her, experts figure.

Plair that loses its color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and

up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sul

beautiful dark shade of hair which is

this through your hair, taking one
small strand at a tme. By morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
