SHOPMEN TO VOTE
ON WILSON PROPOSAL
Industrial Peace on Federal Con
trolled Lines Hinges on Rail
Men's Decision.
Washington, Aug. 26. Railroad
shopmen throughout the United
States will begin voting immediately
on whether they will accept the wage
proposals made yesterday by Presi
dent Wilson and Director General
Hines or go on strike to enforce their
demands for a general advance in pay.
On the outcome of the balloting
hinges industrial peace on the govern- ;
ment controlled railroads. If the
500,000 shopmen decide to accede to
President Wilson's decision that there
shall be no general wage advances -
be done to control the rising cost of
living, sufficient time to effect some
change in price levels probably will
elapse before other unions press their
demands for more money.
What action ;vemment may
be expected to take in the event of
a vote by the s.-.nen to strike for
an immediate increase in wages, which
President Wilson has said would have
a disastrous effect on efforts. to bring
down prices, has not been disclosed, if
indeed it has been considered.

A POPULAR VERDICT
Based on Evidence of Monett People.
Grateful thousands tell it
Of weak backs made strong
Of weak kindneys made weel
Urinary disorders corrected.
Monett people add their testimony.
They praise Doan's Kidney Pills.
Monett evidence is now complete.
Monett testimony is confirmed.
Reports the early relief substan
tiated. Merit doubly proved by test of time.
Let a Monett citizen speak.
Theo. Lynde, carpenter, 401 Euclid
Ave., says: "I had occasion, about a
year ago, to use Doan's Kidney Pills
for backache and kidney complaint.
They relieved me of the trouble and
there hasn't been any serious return
of the ailments since." (Statement
given September 30, 1911.)
LATER ENDORSEMENT
On April 4, 1916 Mr. Lynde said:
"I use Doan's Kidney Pills only once
in awhile and they keep my kidneys
in good condition. I am always ready
to say a good word for them."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy get
Doan's Kidney Pills the same that
Mr. Lynde had. Foster Milburn Co.,
