Abbott of British Middle Classes Union Believes Such Would Fill Long Want By W. L. Mallabar International News Service Staft Correspondent London, May 22.—“The recent railroad strike in America provided an objeet lesson to the need of an or- ganization of the middle classes there for the defense of their interests. They must get together and provide a buffer between organized capital and organized labor in sectional di_sputes. The middle classes must organize not only for the defense of their own in- terests, but also for the defense of the interests of the nation as a whole.” These were a few of the declara- tions made by Captain Stanley Ab- bott, general secretary of the Middle Classes’ Union, when commenting on the railroad strike in the Unitéd States. «“The Middle Classes’ Union in Eng- land watched with great interest the strike in the United States,” contin- ued the captain. ‘““There was a semi- lar opportunity for the middle classes to make a stand in this country last year during the railroad strike, and I think I am correct in saying that we rose strongly to the situation. It was a great stimulant to the organization and resulted in a very large increase in our membership. “Since that time branches of the Middle Classes’ Union have been es- tablished in over 150 centers in the United Kingdom, and our present membership increase is at the rate of over 1,000 per week. Similar move- ments have been started in America tions with our office here, and I am IF KIDNEYS AND BLADDER BOTHER Take Salts to Flush Kidneys " and Neutralize Irritat- ing Acids Kidney and Bladder weakness re- sult from uric acid, says a noted au- thority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it often remains to jrritate and inflame, causing a burn- ing, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the blad- der, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread, the water passes some times with a scald- ing sensation and is very profuse; again, there is difficulty in avoid- ing it. Bladder weakness, most folks ~ca“ it, because they can’t control urina- tion. While it is extremely .annoy- ing.and some times very painful, this{ is really one of the most simple ail- ments to overcome. Get about four ounces of Jad Salts from your phar- macist and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast, con- tinue this for two or three days. This will neutralize the acids in the urine s0 it no longer is a source of irritation to the bladder and urinary organs which then act normally again. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless, and is made from the acid ofi grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by uric acid irritation. Jad . Salts is splendid for kidneys and causes no bad effects whatever. Here you have a pleasant, efferves- cent lithia-water drink, whichiquickly relieves bladder trouble.

On December 31, 1919, the price of crude had ad- vanced to $3.51 per barrel, f. 0. b. Whiting, and the selling price of gasoline to 21c per gallon. In other words this Company is paying two and one- half times as much for crude oil as it was in 1913, but because of its more efficient refining methods it is able to sell gssoline to you for less than one-half more than was charged at that time.

Every cost entering into the making of gasoline has risen immensely. The cost of crude, the cost of refining, and the cost of marketing are all greater than ever before. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) by superior efficiency in every process of refining and dis- tributing has contributed in no small degree to hold the price of gasoline down to its present level. Every man in the manufacturing end of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is keenly alive to the pressing necessity for an increased output of gasoline at a minimum manufacturing cost. The ideal toward which the Standard Oil Com- pany (Indiana) is striving, is to put Red Crown, a gasoline of known, standard quality, within the reach of motorists everywhere in the Middle West, at a price 80 low as to make possible the free use of that 25 percent increase in automotive vehicles which is anticipated for 1920, Standard Oil Company (Indiana) 910 So.
