THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €, THURSDAY, JANUARY 10, 1929.° "SR 0000ARNY “ARFUND S VOTED House Adopts Proposal to Ban Liberty Motors in New Planes. By the Associated Press. After adopting a proposal forbidding > use ot Liberty motors, a leading | i War aircraft engine, in the new y airplanes purchased after th of the fiscal year, the House yes- approved $33,000,000 carried in r Department supply bill for the Army Air Corps. ‘The amendment. offered by Repre- santatice La Guardia, Republican, New York. himself a World War aviator, was accepted by a vote of 24 to 14. He con- tended that it was not economy for the Aimy to use the old Liberty motors in new planes. La Guardia said that his amendment particularly was aimed to provide new and modern planes for training young Army fiyers. Many war-time planes en- ginea with obsolete Liberty motors are | being used as training planes, he added. Call Motors Dangerous. Other contentions voiced by La Guar- dia_and by Representatives Maas and Furlow of Minnesota, also a war fiyer, and Hudson of Michigan, all Repub- licans, were that planes equipped with the motors were not only uneconomical, but dangerous. and that it would prove a menace for the Government to sell the supply it has on hand to civilian avia- tors The debate brought a reference to the testimony of F. Trubee Favison, As- sistant Secretary of War, before the appropriations subcommittee, in which he said that he and Gen. J. E. Fechet had used Liberty motors in their flight to Panama last year. “We had no end of motor trouble,” Davison testified. 4,000 Reported on Hand. The Assistant Secretary said that the | War Department still had on hand | about 4,000 of the old motors that were built during the latter days of the World War, characterizing them as “relatively unreliable as contrasted with the mod- ern motors.” Gen. Fechet observed that other motors were about three times as safe as the Liberty. The Assistant Secretary, however, de- clared he did not believe the Liberty motor was so unsafe that the War De- partment would be justified in junking the planes equipped with them.

Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, January 10.—Henry Ford's book, “My Philosophy of Life,” was to be released today by Coward-Mc- Cann, 425 Fourth avenue. In it the au- tomobile manufacturer forecasts a revo- lutior: of farming methods by ccrpora- tlons entering this field to carry on va- rious phases of the work and in the home sees the problem of “too much drudgery” met with the propostion of having meals cooked outside the house and delivered at mealtime. “Under present conditions,” Mr. Ford writes, “there is no way for a farmer to get ahead very fast, unless he uses new methods. Large corporations, whose sole business it will be to perform the operations of plowing, planting, culti- vating and harvesting, will supersede the individual farmer, or groups of farmers will combine to perform their work on a wholesale scale. This is the proper way to do it and the only way in which eco- nomic freedom can be won.” “Machinery is accomplishing in the world what man has failed to do by preaching, propaganda or the written word,” is one of Mr. Ford's statements in the book. Others follow: “Thinking is the hardest work there vhich is the probable reason why so ew engage in it.” “What causes war is not patriotism, not that human beings are willing to die in defense of their dearest ones. It is che false doctrine, fostered by the few, that war spells gain.” “The fact that pacifists are left in peace is proof that they are not attack- ing the real causes of war. If pacifists spoge the truth they would not be petted as they are today; theirs would be the hard lot of the martyrs of truth.” “A peaceful nation is one that has the means to make war and refrains.” “The youth who can solve the money guestion will do more for the world | than all the professional soldiers of his- tory.” “In common decency the liquor gen- eration should be allowed to die in siience. Its agonies shou'd not be the constant topic of American journals.” “No one smokes in the Ford ‘ndustries. Tobacco is not a good thing for indus- try nor for the individual.” FLUSH THE KIDNEYS | | Drink Lots of Water, Also, | Take a Little Salts if | | Back Hurts | | | | No man or woman can make & mistake by flushing the kidneys oc-| casionally, says a well known au- | thority. Eating too much rich food | | creates acids, which excite the kid- || neys. They become overworked from | the strain, get sluggish and fail to | filter the waste and poisons from | | the blood. Then we get sick. Rheu- | | matism, headaches, liver trouble, | | nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness |and urinary disorders often come | | from sluggish kidneys. | | The moment you feel a dull ache | |in the kidneys, or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, | full of sediment, irregular of pas- sage or attended by a sensation of | scalding, begin drinking a quart of | water each day, also get about four| ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-| . take & tablespoonful in @ | glass ‘of water before breakfast, and | Jflr; a few days your kidneys may nct’ e. | | _This famous salts is made from | the acid of grapes and lemon juice, | | combined with lithia, and has been | used for years to flush and stimulate | the kidneys; also to help neutralize | the acids in the system, so they no| | longer cause irritation, thus often re- lieving bladder weakness. | Jad Salts is inexpensive: makes a| delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take| now and then to help keep the kid- | neys clean and active and the blood pure, thereby often avoiding serious kidney complications. — Advertise- | ment JA&NQ&QJK\T 11th to 16th Full Fashioned Silk Hose Newest Shades Special Light-Weight Service Hose Regularly $1.45 '1.19 3 Pairs $3.45 A firm, good-looking stocking that will give unusually long wear.
