They par- ticul ill consider the nmew Naval Reserve law, in so far as its applica- tion to date has benefited the Reserve, and make recommendations for fur- ther improvement where possible, Rear Admiral W. R. Shoemaker, chief of the Bureau of Navigation, in welcoming the Reserve officers to- day, stressed that the department could not expect 1o obtain maximum results from the Reserve activities long many lines, unless the personnel of the Reserve understood the under- lying reason of the bureau in its en- deavor to carry out the program. Likewise, he said, the theoretical ples enunctated by the Bureau I vigation could not be success- fully applied unless their practical functions were sound. A comprehensive program has been { outlined for the conference, and the { personnel has been divided into five committees which will report on 10 | major problems submitted to them by | Capt. W. P.

Senator Reed, Republican, Pennsy vania, who recommended Woods' nom- ination to President (*oolidge, conceded the vote would be close, but predicted confirmation. West Virginians Oppose. Senators Goff, Republican, and Neely, Democrat, West Virginia, who are leading the fight against confirma- tion on behalf of coal operators in their own State and in Virginia, Ken tucky and Tennessee, said they ad Mr. Woods defeated beyond question. The nomination is being considered | in secret session. Boosts Open Confirmation. A proposed amendment to the Sen- ate rules under which nominations for the more important Government commissions would be considered in on is being drafted by Sena- sh, Democrat, of Massachu- setts, he announced last night. Without mentloning the pending Woods' nomination, Walsh suid his amendment would affect appointments to the Federal Trade, Tariff and In terstate Commerce Commissions. He protested against “the present policy of shrouding in secrecy these nomina- tions to policy-making commissions, declaring its continuance was ‘“the best way to assure the ascendency of an_invisible government.” A majority vote in favor of an open session on the Woods nomination was overturned by a ruling of Vice Presi- dent Dawes, holding that a two-thirds majority vote was necessary to set aside the standing rule for executive consideration. Sentiment against the closed ses. sions came to a head in the last ses- sion, when heated controversy raged about the nomination of Thomas F. Woodlock to the Commerce Commi sion, many Senators objecting to rules {preventing them from explaining whether they voted for or against contirmation, COAST GUARDS AID TO DRYS UNDER FIRE Representative McLeod, Michigan, Sponsors Resolution for In- quiry at Detroit. By the Associated Pross. Investigation of the prohibition en- forcement unit, particularly the Coast Guard division at Detroit, was asked today in a resolution by Representa- tive McLeod, Republican, Michigan. The inquiry would go into prohibi- tion_enforcement generally, but first would be directed to charges that “in- nocent persons near Detroit have been stopped, searched and fired-upon by prohibition agents” and that Col. A. J. Hanlon, in charge of the Detroit coast patrol, has seized property with- out legal authority. The resolution recites that it was alleged that a $300,000 fund al- lotted the prohibition ~enforcement unit under Col. Hanlon “is being grossly misused and squandered,” and that the smuggling of liquor across the border in the vielnity of Detroit has increased since Col. Hanlon took charge, The inalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, the reso- lution added, have been flaunted by the recent alleged practices of the Coast Patrol at Detroit.

For one of these forces yields only to FRUIT ACID treat- ment—the other yields only to ALKALI treatment. No “old-fashioned” tooth-paste with its single tube ever could contain BOTH these ingredients—because they begin to destroy each other as soon as they come into contact. Now however, after 30 years, complete treatment for the teeth, gums and mouth has been achieved by combining BOTH the necessary fruit acids and the necessary alkalies in the exclusive patented tube-within-a-tube of New-Mix. The New-Mix tube-within-a-tube keeps both of these ingredi- ents separate and fresh right up to the moment you use them. All “old-fashioned” tooth-pastes do only kalf the work of beautifying and healthifying the teeth, gums and mouth. New-Mix does the whole work. “It is,” says Dr. L. K. P., of | Washington, “the real 100% dentifrice that we have all been looking for.” The pink paste, from the inner, New-Mix tube, contains the fresh fruit juices which are needed to loosen the film, heal the gums, and protect against dread pyorrhea. ‘The white paste, from the outer New-Mix tube, contains the alka- line substances which alone can break the grip of the clinging tar- tar, whiten and polish the teeth to dazzling beauty, and give the mouth freshness. Try NEW-MIX tonight—and see how different your teeth, your gums and your mouth feel after this complete treatment which only NEW-MIX can give.
