THIS WEEK IN
I WASHINGTON i
Special to The Franklin Times
Washington, D. C., Not. 6. ? More
activity has been displayed by the
White House In the past few weeks
than in many months. Congress
will meet a month from now and the
spotlight will shift to ..Capitol Hill,
especially over the choke of succes
sor to Speaker Nicholas Longworth
of the House of Representatives.
Meanwhile the President has been
grappling with the Immediate prob
lems that are facing the country.
Premier Laval's visit here Is gener
ally conceded to have been of first
Importance, not because of anything
that was actually accomplished but
because it resulted in a thorough
understanding between the two
countries regarding their individual
aims and purposes.
Before even the leaders of the
governments of France and the
United States clasped hands a def
inite statement was Issued that noth
ing that might be done or said was
to be taken as having a binding ef
fect on either country. That state
ment disposed of any possible criti
cism that Mr. Hoover was about to
engage in any of the "entangling
foreign alliances" that political
spellbinders use so effectively In
campaigns.
The greatest good accomplished,
diplomats here believe, was the clear
enunciation on the part of the
United States that it would not fol
low England's example and forsake
the gold standard. That was
France's greatest anxiety and to pre
vent such action was understood to
be Premier Laval's main object in
coming here. It was agreed at the
conference that the aim of both
countries was identical In desiring
to keep International finance on an
even keer and that they would work
In harmony to prevent any major
disturbances.
? ? ?
While statements were Issued that
politics was not discussed at the con
ference, nobody believes that either
Mr. Hoover or Mr. Laval could keap
off the subject entirely. They are
both of them too deeply Interested
In the subject to avoid some re
marks, but, whatever they said, It
was not disclosed.
Senator Borah did not overlook
the chance to grab the political
limelight, however, and his Inter
view granted to the French news
papermen, startled the world until
later assurances from the White
House made it clear that Borah was
speaking only for himself and not
for anybody with real authority.
Borah is chairman of the Foreign
Relations Committee of the Senate I
and Europeans consider that post ;
equivalent to the post of foreign :
minister in their countries. ;
Nobody in the United States has
any false notions about Borah's Im
portance and his demands for a re
shaping of the boundaries of Hun
gary and revision of the lines of the <
Polish Corridor were not taken by 1
any of the French delegation as be
ing of any importance. The only I
thing' Borah said that the President
backed was his declaration that ev
ery European nation must be left
as the best Judges of its own se- :
curlty.
Both the President and Mr. Laval
agreed any action on disarmament
must be held up until the interna
tional conference is held next year
to discuss that subject. They also
agreed that the present costs of
arming the rival nations has grown
to such an extent that the burden
is too great to be borne and that
good times cannot be expected to
return until some solution Is found
of this problem.
In recent weeks, feelers have been
put out for the purpose of sounding
public sentiment regarding the im
position of additional sales taxes.
So far the only thing learned is that
all are agreed this country must
raise more revenue in addition to
the present means of raising money
by income taxes, the customs, in
heritance and other forma. Coupled
with this Is the known (Act that sales
taxes bear lightest upon the voter,
If properly laid.
Right after the war taxes were
placed on all theatre tickets, auto
mobiles and other articles which
could not be classed as necessities.
Most of these have been abolished.
Those still surviving are cigarettes,
tobaccos, patent medicines, playing
cards and a few! similar articles. The
loss from excess duties on beer,
wines and liquors, has been heaviest
and, of course, there is no talk of
altering that condition by any modi
fication of the Volstead Act by the
preMnt government.
The new taxes may be applied on
matehes, radio sets, pianos, silk
wearing apparel and other articles
whleh can be placed outside of the
necessity line. This Is the only
country in the world which does not
tax matches, and an enormous rev
enue can be obtained from them
without Imposing a burden on the
public. It Is more than likely that
the sales tax will be among the ear
ly problems to be acted upon when
Congress meets early next month,
ttt
Another question occupying the
President's attention Is his plan to
aid home builders. A conference of
several hundred leaders in building
and allied lines, along with the men
who finance sucll operations, will be
herd here on December I. The Presi
dent Is aiding those working on the
problem as far aa it lies in his pow
er.' His aim Is to make borrowing
easier for those who want to build
hones for themselves by cutting the
charges, both for Interest and com
mission and making more money

bowel trouble
Constipation may very easily become
chrome after forty. And any continued
constipation at tnat time of life may
bring attacks of piles and a host of other
unpleasant disorders.
Watch your bowels at any age. Guard
them witn particular care after forty.
Whenever they need any help, remember
? doctor should know what is best for
them.
"Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin" is a
doctor's prescription for the bowels. Tested
by 47 years' practice, it has been found
thoroughly effective in relieving consti
pation and its ills for men, women and
children of all ages. It has proven
perfectly safe even for babies. Made
from fresh laxative herbs, pure pepsin
and other harmless ingredients, it cannot
gripe; will net sicken you or weaken you,
can be used without harm as often as
your breath is bad, or when your tongue
is coated; whenever a headachy, bilious,
gassy condition warns i>f crutipation.
