SASU.SWANTSTO GET THE ANTILLE f. ffilth American Wrier Publhes | Alleged lntgrview With Hughes Parls, March 17, (By Assoclated \Press),—The United States desires to obtaln cession of the Antilles from France in payment of the French war debt, according to Adolfo Agorio, the Uruguayan writer, in an article print- ed in the Briandist newspaper 1.' Re- tall, Supporting his contention Agorio quotes the following remarks which he alleges Secretary Hughes recently made to a South American diplomat | who is a friend of the writer. “The Monroo Doctrine is the funda- mental basis as well as the unique strength of Pan-Americanism and it will not have attained its essential| object as long as there remain Euro- | pean colonies in America, French t Growing. “The hour we arc hoping for, how- ever, will soon strike. We have post- poned our differences with Great Britain. As to I‘rance, she owes us too many billions for us to be able to cancel her debt, for we are re- sponsible to the people of the United States. But in a few years the sum I'rance owes will, with interest, have | grown to such fantastic proportions * that no country in the world could possibly pay it. “Will the question of the sale of| the French Antilles be considered?” the diplomat asked Mr. Hughes, ac- cording to M. Agorio. The article says that the American seccretary thought for a few minutes and then continued: Hughes' Statement. “Certainly—and we hope the French will become reasonable and will not refuse to discuss this ques- tion with us. From the viewpoint of our military and naval defences these islands are of vital importance to us while they bring in nothing or prac- tically nothing to the I'rench. I hope and with me the entire public opin- ion of the United States hopes that the French government will end this by an undertaking.” SHIP GETS DECORATION Naval Collier Orion Will Receive Dec- oration From Portuguese Govt.

They be- come sluggish and weaken; then you may suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets gloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three ‘times during the night. P To help neutralize these irritating acids, to help cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body's urinous waste, get four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here; take a tablespoon- ful in a glass of water before break- fast for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to hel flush and stimulate sluggish kidney: also to neutralize the acids in the system so they no longer irritate, thus often relleving bladder weakness, Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in- jure and makes a delightful efferves- cent lithia-water drink.
