HOOVER'S RELIEF PLAN. Secretary Outli ing in New England. Three recommendations for assist- ance to flood sufferers and indus injured in the floods in New England are made by Secretary Hoover in a Jetter to Gov. John E. Weeks of Ver: mont, made public at the Commerc Department. Mr. Hoover says that while the ac- curate cost of rehabilitation from the ravages of the flood cannct vet be de termined, some conclusions can be ached. “It is obvious,™ he sayvs hat the cost of rel vilitation is be- vond the means of the stricken dis- tricts; it is also ohvious that assur ances must be taken at once that as: stance will be forthcoming. Mr. Hoover's Suggestions. In this light T would make the fol- lowing suggestions: “First—That the National Red Cross should at once announce its acceptance of the full responsibility toward all those who cannot other- wise provide for themselves to fur- nish them necessary nousehold furni- ture, building repairs, new home con- | struction, cattle, horses, live stock. farm implements, tools, food and clothing for Winter. Also that they should undertake such assistance to smaller merchants and artisans as | will enable them to get back to self-| support. I am sure the American people will sustain the Red Cross in this undertaking and I am recom- mending this course to President Coolidge. “Second—I suggest that either the New England Bankers' Association or the New England Council be re- quested to assume the responsibility for organizing such measures as will assure credits to the worthy industrial and commercial establishments which may be embarrassed by the flood. It seems to me that this is most es- sential because of the large number of small industries located in the flood valleys Work for Highway Bureau. “Third — The Federal Highways Bureau should be requested to make a detailed estimate of the cost of re- storing the Federal aid roads. The responsibility in reconstruction of the roads must obviously be worked out among the State and Federal agencies involved, but in the meantime the fact should be determined. My advices are that the railways with minor exceptions are able and intend to carry through vigorous re- © truction of their lines. fay I add my admiration for the way each neighborhood has grappled with its difficulties, the self-reliance and courage which each has shown in this very great disaster. “aithful . “HERBERT HOOVER.

Chin Chun Wang, chief Chinese { delegate, repeated a statement made lat the Washington arms conference to this effect and added that “the Chi- | nese government has not since with. |drawn or modified that declaration.

Mar- shall of 2415 E street, “we have been constant users of Bond Bread. Bond Bread, with its delicious home-like flavor, gives my two little girls the necessary strength for their daily out- of-doors play, as a result of which they have rosy cheeks and sturdy bodies.” these purest and fincst food ma- terials would ever be used. This pledge, in the form of a Bond, is printed on the wrap- per of each loaf. All of the ingredients used are named and guarantce is given that they are the best that can be purchased. Bond Bread gets its name from this bond, and today more than a million housewives see the pledge kept at every meal. NE glance at voungsters tells what Bond Bread has meant to their health. Bread is the chief food in the diet of most children, and careful mothers want to be sure of its purity and wholesomeness. That is why so many mothers kept on baking bread at home until Bond came. When they were told that Bond Bread was made of the same pure in- gredients they always used there opened to them a pros- pect of relief from anxious hours over hot ovens. If Bond was wholesome and flavorful, they need no longer bake. They would have much more time to give to their children. Tn the use of pure ingre- dients lies the secret of Bond Bread's appetizing appear- ance, firm, close-knit texture and home-like flavor. Chil- dren relish it as they did the bread their mothers used to bake. Bond’s flavor stimu- lates their appetites. They eat more of it. Because of its purjty it is readily di- gestible, and while it is build- ing healthy bone and tissue it helps keep little dispositions agreeable Since the first loaf was baked Bond Bread has kept faith with the housewives who accepted the pledge of the bakers that only the Your Neighborhood Grocer Can Supply You Daily Bond The Home-Like Loaf: NIRIN AN ARLIN oS VIV, ——— B night New York Academy of Medicine. bulletins, managing | that a great many w to reach the public in an interesting and convincing way.” -~Speakers at last night's meeting were Dr. Maud Slye of Chicago, who discussed her experiments in heredity of cancer; Dr. Kendall Emerson of Worcester, Mass., and Dr. H.
