Like A Gas Factory; Meals Turned To Gas One lady said recently that her stomach used to be like a “gas sac-j tory!” That is, when she ate a meal. it seemed to turn right into gas. She ] was always bloated, had awful stom ach gas pains, daily headaches, and constant irregular bowel action. Now, ] however, this lady says she is FREE of STOMACH GAS and she says the| change is due to taking INNER-AID. Her meals agree with her. No gas or I bloat after eating. Headaches and i constipation are gone. “Oh! what re lief!" states this lady. “Why don’t other gas and constipation sufferers get INNER-AID?” INNER-AID contains 12 Great; Herbs; they cleanse bowels, clear gas from stomach, act on sluggish liver and kidneys.

I A Brief Sketch Os j Robert Lee Humber j Candidate For Congress | Born in Pitt County, May ,50. IS9B. on the homeplace of hi* father and grandfather. | Graduated from Winterville High School and from Wake Forest College with B. A. and LL. B. degrees, where he was President of Senior Class, Commencement Speaker. Intercollegiate Debater. Vice President of the YMCA, and Editor ol the weekly and monthly magazines. Active in Athletics, playing left-end on Varsity football team and Manager of Varsity baseball team First Wake Forest Alumnus to be elected member of Phi Beta Kappa, the highest Collegiate Scholarship in the United 5 States. I Volunteered in World War I and served as Second Lieutenant in Field Artillery. £ After the War he entered Harvard University receiving the degree of M.A. and served on the faculty as tutor in the Depart- # ment of Government, History and Economics. Licensed to practice Law and sworn in as member of Pitt County Bar in Sep- l tember. 1920. Appointed Rhodes Scholar from North Carolina to Oxford University. England, in 1020. in which capacity he 5 served for three years. Traveled extensively on the Continent and made a trip around the world. I Studied at the University of Paris, where he was American Field Service Fellow for two years, Chairman of Board of Trus- £ tees of the American Church in Paris—the oldest American Church on foreign soil—which served as the religious center for as * many as 5000 American students annually in France. I In Paris, where the American Legion was born in 1919, he was a Charter member and officer of Paris Post Xo. 1, having previously been a Charter Member of the American Legion Post at Harvard University and is now a member of Pitt County 1 Post Xo. 39. Returning to his home in Pitt County in 1940. he was elected Chairman of Board of Deacons of Memorial A Baptist Church and is now a Trustee of the Church. j Received National recognition in an article first printed in the Christian Herald and re-printed in the May, 1946, issue of Reader’s Digest which every voter should read. In 1940, believing that if the peace, following World War 11. was to be won, 5 the people of America, themselves, would have to win it. he organized among the people of Eastern North Carolina a move- I ment for World Federation, which seeks to establish law as the means of maintaining world order by punishing individuals L who commit international crime, instead of the present method of fighting nations and destroying through war the innocent as 5 well as the guilty. f The movement has spread throughout the Nation. Fourteen States have endorsed the resolution of which he is the author, £ among them being North Carolina; eight other states have taken modified action, making 22 states that have responded * favorably to his leadership. Fifteen additional States are now considering the resolution that is destined to be introduced in I Congress, which must ultimately decide in the name of the Am erican people whether the United States shall stand hereafter £ for world order based on law or world chaos based on war. J ? Questions involving war and peace are now becoming the supreme issues of our generation. Either we win the peace and f preserve civilization or lose the peace and become victims of atomic bomb. His long and successful efforts in dealing with over f I half of the Legislatures of this country, many of which he addressed in joint sessions, have not only brought him a nation- A * * wide circle of friends and collaborators, but qualified him for leadership and accomplishment in the* halls of Congress. 1 * The welfare and problems of the farmers have been a subject of special concern to Mr. Humber. He has frequently made { I speeches emphasizing the necessity of stabilizing the income of farmers and of keeping their revenue on a par with industrial * f changes, indicating that he is not only a student but a champion of the farmer’s interest. Farm income, he says, must be sus- : tained on a high level, if the prosperity of this nation is to continue, or else half of the population of this country will cease j l to be customers and the industrial fabric of the nation will crumble. He has repeatedly stressed the enormous potentialities 1 ' embedded in the soil and climate of Eastern North Carolina which have scarcely been touched or developed. Through the 1 maintenance of a just equilibrium between farm and industrial income, the diversification of agriculture and the establish- I * ment of more small businesses, the growth of Eastern North Carolina can, he said, be more secure. . * > Fourteen Counties are included in the First Congressional District, and BEAUFORT COUNTY (Candidate Bonner’s Coun « | ty) is the only County that has had representation in Congress since 1898, a period without a break of FORTY-EIGHT 1 | YEARS. Don’t you think it is about time that some other county should have a Representative in Congress? PITT COUNTY is presenting to the voters of the first District ROBERT LEE HUMBER, who is well qualified to give this District one of the ; | best representations it has had in the entire history of the First Congressional District, and in seizing this opportunity, the vot- 1 f ers place in the halls of Congress, in these stressful and trying times, a strong advocate for WORLD ORDER BASED ON LAW AND FOR WORLD PEACE INSTEAD OF ANOTHER WORLD WAR CAST YOUR B/UIOT FOR MHERT LIE HUMBER , f Sponsored By Chowan County Friends of Robert Lee Humber ( , Auxiliary President Speaker At Meeting Mrs. O.
