Senator Phipps also has introduced a resolution to provide for this coun- try’s participation in the Pan-Ameri- can Conference on Highways to be held at Rio de Janeiro in July, 1928, The Senator sponsored this resolution in the Sixty-ninth Congress, but it was caught in the lastminute jam in March, and the other member nations postponed the conference to permit the United States to take part. Discussing the two resolutions, Sena- tor Phipps called attention to the great value of mutual understanding and co-operation among nations in the mat- ter of motor transportation. It is im- portant, he said, to cultivate interna- tional good feeling on the subject, as the value of automotive goods export- ed by the United States now exceeds the value of any other manufactured commodity. composed of represenatives of 45 na- FOUR GYPSIES TO FACE | : e | TRIAL ON WEDNESDAY | 105000, ¥ Conprons paseen s ot | resolution introduced in the Senate by Senator Phipps, Republican, of Col- | orado, under which this country would | extend an invitation to the-road dele- | | zates to meet in the United States in | 1929 or 1930. | The previous War was declared by Maryland vesi-| Shoemaker then offered the follow- dents of the Greater Washington Met- | ing resolution: ropolitan area last night to end what| “Resolved, that it is the pesition of was denounced in resolutions present- | (his federation that subscribers of the | ed to the Montgomery County Civic| Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Co., Federation as “insufferable condi- | residing in that portion of Maryland {ions” imposed by discriminatory rates | contignous to the District of Colum- of telephone, ting, | bia line are entitled to Washington and other public City telephone service at Washington quaintances were renewed last night at the first re- nion dinn by the Ordwa Rifle \'eterans’ / siation at City Club, those present w; many former mem| bers of the old] company who had| Resolutions favoring more strin &ent law enforcement and extolling the benefits of prohibition were adopt ©d by the Anti-Saloon League of the District of Columbia at fts annual meeting in the New York Avenue Presbyterian Chureh last night.

We want you to make the test, yourself. Just fill in and mail the coupon below, with ten cents to cover mailing costs. We will send you a sample of Sanka and a sample of the same blend from which the caffein has not been re- moved. - They will be marked simply “A™ and “B." Try them both and see if you can tell the difference. Later we will send you a letter tell- ing you which is which. If you want to make a quicker trial of Sanka, purchase a can today from your grocer or deli- catessen. It comes ground and in the bean. Back acain TO REAL COFFEE and without a thought of sleeplessness COFFEE, the magic nectar that woos away the morning grouch. Coffee, the one per- fect soul-mate of a fragrant after-dinner cigar. What a sacrifice it is to watch others enjoy it while you—who are perhaps susceptible to caf- fein—must content yourself with nothing, or a flat, cheerless substitute. But now all those who have been denying themselves coffee can forget their nerves and their sleepless nights and go back again to real coffee . . . and without the slightest danger from caffein’s disagreeable after-effects. Sanka Coftee, the famous caffein-free coffee that has captured the fancy of all smart Europe, is. now available in handy tins at your own grocer's or delicatessen. Sanka s pure, unadulterated coffec—every grain of it. It looks and feels just like any other coffee you have ever used. When you taste it you'll never know the difference, except that its delicious flavor and rich, fragrant aroma will convince you that it is one of the world’s outstanding blends. But the really important difference is that Sanka is 977, free from caffein. Even if ordinary coffee disagrees with you, you can drink all the Sanka you want—even at midnight. It won't keep you awake or affect your nerves. Poster_Beds ov. Winthrop Desks. “hifforobes .. Boudoir Chairs . “hildren’s Go-Carts. Children's Rockers End Tables .. Breakfast Sets .
