Sea&nd Sectfon (EW BRITAIN HERALD, [ NEW BRITAIN CONNECTICUT, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8, 1914. , DONOVAN OBJEGTS T0 “PORK BARREL” : Fakes Crack at Appropriation for Past Office in North- Dakota. \ (Spectal to the Herald.) whashington, D. C., April 8.—Con- gressman Donovan of the Bridgeport aistrict of Connecticut took another crack at the congressional pork bar- rel, o0 the floor of the house Mon- aay Afternoon. It will be remem- perel that not long ago he fired hut shot and shell at the rivers and har- port appropriation bill; yesterday, it was @ “public building” bill that he atpicked. fhe bill proposed to increase by 41,000 an earlier appropriation for a building for the post office at Mandan, i North Dakota. Of the original $55,000 appropriated, $12,000 has been spent for the site and there is about $39,000 evaildble for the building. The bill appropriated $11,000 additional. Early in the consideration of tho bill Congresman Donovan asked the bill's author, Congresman Norton, what was the population of Mandan and what its, postal receipts. Mr. Norton replied that the population was be- tween 5,000 and 6,000 and that the postal receipts were more than $15,000 yearly. Congressman Donovan then de- clared that the population statistics showed it had 3,800, population and COMBING WON'T RID HAIR OF DANDRUFF The Easlest and Best Way Is to Dissotve It. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when'retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and zub it gently with the finger tips. Do this tonight, and by morning most 'if not all of your dandruff will te gome, and three 6r four more ap- plications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy, every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dan- druff you may have. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop at once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus- trous, glossy, silky and soft, and leok and feel a hundred times hetter. \If_you want to presérve ypur hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for nothing destroys the hair more quickly. Jt not.only starves the hair and makek it fall out, but it makes it stringy, stragely, dull, dry, brittle and ufgless. and everyone notices it. You can get lMquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpemsive'’' and never fails to do the work. _—_—— he doesn’t know what any child ought that the postal books show less re- ceipts than $15,000. : “Does not the gentleman think this bill ought to be passed over until the House can have someone here who | s more about the facts of the asked Congressman Donovan. > se committee on public puildings and grounds doesn't seem to know much about it. ‘Why should they ? They are only here half the time; they spend more of the time going away here and there and every- where else and don’t seem to attend to business. “I nave not heard a single state- ment here that is true—all of them are exaggerated. There has been ex- pended nearly half a million dollars in four places in that section of the country and the total population of the four places is less than 10,000. Here is a little place of 3,800. I cannot understand the gall, so to speak, that prompts one to ask for such an appropriation.” commented Minority Leader Mann. Mr. Norton proceeded to defend the bill and spoke of the importance of Mandan as a rallroad center and as a growing town. . ““We don’t care anything about that, brother,” replied Mr. Donovan. “What we want are the population and postal receipts statistics. How do we know the gentleman (Mr. Norton) is fami- lar with the situation out there, when he does not know the census, when to be able to get hold of?” “I live near Mandan,” replied Mr. Norton. “I know its population is 5,000. They have recently established an Elks’ lodge there and the town must have 5,000 to get such a lodge.” “Are we putting up public buildings for Elks?” retorted Mr. Donovan. “The Elks get mail, the same as other people,” replied Mr. Norton. The discussion was taken up by others and the bill was finally passed. A similar bill came up a short time later, providing for a building out in Oregon, under $omewhat similar cir- cumstances. Mr. Donovan made a similar attack, asking that the mea- sure go over until more :information could be obtained. He was reminded that a single ob- jection prevented'the consideration of the bill at that time. Mr. Donovan ; apparently rose to object and some- | one engaged him in conversation | quietly. Meanwhile the house took up | consideration of the measure. Con- ! gressman Mann took occasion to re- | mark that an objection by Mr. Dono- 1 van ‘“has been pulled back by the coattails.” The house had a good laugh, in which Mr. Donovan joined. l CASTORIA ||’ For Infants and Children.

Hartford, Gonp, Congressman Cooper chimed in at || that time that the population statistics | of the census bureau, cited by Mr. Donovan, are four years old. But Mr. Donovan merely replied that his point was that facts were wanted be- fore the bill should be passed. “We have been giving facts for 3 more than half an hour or more,” § ENJOY NEW CLOTHES FOR EASTER We are ready for you in a big way.
