tration ofnoials werevDroceedinsr to
day with plans for- a conference here, j
yrvuviy .rarty next; spring, among
treasury officials and American bank
ers and the : finance" ministers and
leading bankers of Latin-American
nations on commercial problems fac
ing the Western Hemisphere; because
of the European war. Several accept
ances of the United States eovern-
Lraenrs invitation to all Central and
South-American countries to partici
pats! ui the- gathering have already
'been.reooveMid.
, The plan For the1 conference origi-.
nated with- Secrelaryt-MeAdoo and
was inspired- by- the 'experiences ! he.
ad : with Sir " George Paish of the
English treasury as a result of which
problems which had.pilszled English
and American- bap kefs were smooth
ed, out in a shoriJtime. President
Wilson ' and Secretary " Bryan also
Ifove .bee actively interested in put-
t. ' .. . . . '
wng tne pian tor the conference into
execution?-
Trade between the United States
and South America now is compara
tively insignificant, which is attrib
uted to the fact that American bank
ers do' virtually no business direct
with ' those countries, foreign ex
change there being carried on
through London. South and Central
American buyers have obtained long
term credits in Europe, but owing to
the war, English capital is being
utilized at home. It is pointed out
that as a result the" "opportunity Is
presented for iinancihg projects in
the southern countries with the mil
lien's of American dollars now lying
idle. It is believed that the outcome
of the conference will be that many
connections will-be established be
tween American banking houses ,nd
those in the leading South American
nations, while more branches of
American banks will ' be established
there.

' Prohibition of A Nat- '
1 ' fffy '

rights Is one of the lamest arguments
that could be offered in opposition to
national prohibition according to Gov
erBorHodge8 of Kansas, who. spoke
before the national convention ot the
Itktercotlegiate Prohibition Associa
te here today . .
5 "The proposition that national pro
Jiibition i contrary to the letter and
spirit of our government sounds like
the slavery argument years ago," he
siid. "Human rights and the welfare
of humanity must be given prefer
ertce in settling all moral questions."
' jUOvernor noages poiniea out iimt
the only objection offered to prohibi
tion is that it does not prohibit and
tliat this argument is advanced by
thV liquor "interests.
'Nd intelligentr person defends the
$aoon oii moral grounds," he con
tinued. "A 'saloon license is the most
'e&tfstve ftyehue a state can col
lejti:' 'Whiskey is a political liability
a, parasite on business."
FALLING HAIR MEANS
DANDRUFF IS ACTIVE
Save Your Hair! Get a 25 Cent
4 Bottle of Danderine
Right Now
Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
hai-i' mute evidence of .i neglected
gcaipi of dandruff that awful scruff.
t'THere' is nothing so ' dest ructive to
the Hair as dandruff. It robs the hair
of its lustre, its strength and its very
life eventually producing a levensh
ness and itching of the scalp, which
if not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die then the
hair falls out fast. A little Danderine
tonight now any time will surely
save your hair.
Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton'i
Danderine from any drug store o
toilet counter, and after the first ap
olicatfon vour hah" will take on that
life, lustre and luxuriance which is so
beautiful. It will become wavy and
fluffy and have the appearance of abund
a nee; and incomparable gloss and soft
ness. but what will please you will be
after just a few week's use, when you
will actually see a lot of fine, downy
hair- new haii- growing all over the
scalp.
