PRESIDENT BACK-SLIDING.
There is every likelihood that the
President will modify bis recent rul
ing that State, county and municipal
' officers be used as federal agents
to help in the enforcement of the Vol
stead law.
The Senate has been very unkind
to Mr. Coolidge in this matter and
as a result there comes from the White
House the statement that the Presi
dent is ready to modify the proposal
if it proved oppressive.
There has been a strange echo
from the ruling. We find the wet Re
publicans assailing the President and
some of the dry Democrats support
ing him. Also we find other Demo
crats. including Senator Walsh, dis
cussing the matter from a legal staud
point. and the insist that the Presi
dent has the authority to issue just
such orders as he issued.
The old question of States lights
comes into the matter, however, and
that causes most of the trouble for
the President. As a result of the
whole controversy it seems reasonable
to expect early modification of the
original ruling.
PANAMA CANAL PAYS
US $15,000,000 YEARLY
Steady Traffic Growth Will Make
Enterprise Big Source of Profit.
(By Internationay News Service)
Washington, May 25.— IA>) —With
another good year's record in sight,
tile Panama ‘ Canal apparently has
reached a basis that will yield Uncle
Sam's treasury $15,000,000 or more
j each year.
Sheady growth of traffic through
j the big ditch joining the Atlantic and
| Pacific leads canal zone officials to
declare that in time the canal not
only will pay for itself but will rank
as one of the best investments of the
government.
With receipts for the fiscal year
exceeding $19,000,000, the canal has
two months to go to exceed last
year's tolls of $19,021,419.77. The
Panama's Railroad, power plant and
.other business adjuncts also are show
ing handsome profits.
The canal, after a period of un
certainty following its completion in
1914 and the violent fluctuations of
the war period, now is earning money
at the rate of approximately six per
cent, on the investment. Most of the
funds with which the canal was con
structed were derived from govern
ment loans bearing but two and three
per cent, interest.
In the accounting of Panama Canal
costs, officials have charged $112,000.-
000 to the national defense against
which profit is not figured. The
net cost of the canal and its adjuncts
is carried at approximately $200,-
000.000 and net earnings for the last
two years have exceeded $15,000,000.
In the fiscal year ending June 30.
1924. net revenues wtre more than i
$17,000,000.
The business of the canal has in-1
creased six fold since the . first fiscal I
year Which ended June 30, 1915. the j
net tonnage passing through the canal j
rising from 3.792.572 to 22.855.151
tons. Intercpasral shipping now con
stitutes almost half the entire busi
ness.
The western coast of -ftte. United j
States and canal has been sending j
chiefly petroleum, lumber and wheat j
to file Atlantic ports, while the larg- j
est cargoes from the big ports on the ,
Atlantic to the west coast.
American shipping has gradually j'
gained ascendency in transportation \
through the canal. During the first;
year of the canal’s operation, the

generally some underlying fuao* I
tional reason. Neurotics are in
a great majority troubled with
insomnia due to their irritating
nerves. This In itself aggra
vates the condition as it does not
allow the nerves to rest or the
sufferer to relax physically. Exer
cise for this type is most bene
ficial as It induces sleep, restor*
lug and building up nervous
energy.
One of the most difficult ac
complishments for a nervous
person is to relax physically.
Exercise for this type is most
beneficial as it Induces sleep,
which restores and builds up |
nervous energy
Another ally with neurotics Is I
intestinal sluggishness They |
are nearly all sufferers from y
some form of constipation or fl
dyspepsia which forces the I
body to continually absorb toxic D
poisons.
Properly supervised physical
exercises will tone up the di

faulty elimination and will give
renewed energy and add vigor,
thereby producing a psychologi
cal effect by giving a general
feeling of well-being. :
