The association paid out during the year for pay rolls including picking, hauling, fumigation, ornamentation and lemon packing, the total of $500.00. Every department notwithstanding treason that all charges were exactly the same as last year, showed a substantial refund, this included the hauling of the fruit, and the fumigation. The association's annual report shows the organization out of debt. The total amount of money disbursed by the association for its oranges and lemons amounted to $876,873.13.

"BIGGER NAVY' ELEMENT IN MINORITY WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—Acceding to Press, Coolidge demands for economy, and despite SecoWilbur's official admission of the weakness of the United States navy, the house naval affairs committee today abandoned—for the present session of congress—all efforts at remedial naval legislation. The policy of the committee was decided upon when Rep. Freed Britten, Republican of Ills., who compelled the appearance of Wilbrun before the committee yesterday for the testimony with respect to the deficiency of the American navy announced that he would not press his demands for new legislation at this time. Britten announced, however, that at the next session of congress he would again demand improvements which he has been seeking. "I shall reintroduce and press my demand for elevation of the guns on the battleships," Britten said. "Public sentiment for rehabilitatio of the navy by that time, I believe, will force legislation. The president and Secretary Hughes do not want it now. I judge a majority of the house naval affairs committee to be against it. I am satisfied with development of the facts from the secretary of the navy. They show the weakness of our naval defense and how far the navy has been permitted to fall below its treaty strength." Views of Britten were shared by Cong. McClintie, Democrat of Oklahoma. "It's all over for the present," he said, "the question of bringing the navy up to its full authorized strength is laid aside." BRI AGENTO Greater Than That of American Army in European War WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—The death rate among prohibition officers is higher than that of the American army in the world war, Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel of the anti-Saloon League, told the senate judiciary committee today. "The prohibition unit has made an herole record," said Wheeler. "These agents leave their homes in the morning not knowing whether they will be shot down during the day by bootleggers and rum runners. Their's is a far more hazardous service than was that in the world war. Statistics show more prohibition agents have been killed in proportion than men who served overseas under the American flag in the world war. "The agents get $1,680 a year. And every day he can go out and get in bribes from bootleggers more than his whole year's salary. The wonder is not that some few are corrupted but that so many are honest." Wheeler urged passage of the bill creating a separate prohibition bureau, placing all agents under civil service and erecting safeguards around the use of industrial alcohol. He charged that "millions of gallons of industrial alcohol are diverted into bootleg trade every year." INDICT MAN FOR JURY TAMPERING LOS ANGELES, Jan. 9.—Charged with communicating with Juror John J. Apfelt during the trial of Kid McCoy for the murder of his sweetheart, Teresa Mors, Wilbur D.

Apfelt is said to have told the grand jury Campbell, who was an old acquaintance, sought to engage him in conversation concerning the McCoy case and to have hinted about "big money talking." The indictment was the outcome of the jury's investigation of charges that attempts were made to tamper with the McCoy jury before it returned its verdict man-slaughter.

At that time I shall press for a more enlightened development of the naval air service and require that the science of aviation be taught at the Annapolis Naval Academy. I was content to develop the fact that there is not a single officer skilled in aviation now; the general naval board which directs navy. The naval-air service destined to become one of the most important branches of our naval defense.

HOMORROW you are to continue on the same as you have today, taking only orange juice and water, with the addition of the following exercise: Raise right leg to right angle with body, keeping the toes tinted downward, then change position of right and left legs horizontally, without allowing the heels to touch the floor. Try to breathe naturally during this exercise. Orange juice is the most valuable blood builder of any food. Even tho you are not taking any other kind of food, a blood test would show that the red blood cells and hemoglobin (color) of the blood are increasing at a rapid rate, and the toxic materials in the blood stream are diminishing at an equal ratio. This orange juice diet I recommend in all cases of pernicious anemia, as its blood building and purifying effects are so wonderful. The quality of your blood will improve more rapidly on this regime than if you were put on a stuffing diet. (Keep all these articles for future reference.)
