Chicago, Feb. 21__The in-
tensive campaign of the citi-
zens reconstruction . organiza-
tion to bring hoarded cash into
circulation was set yesterday
for the period of March 7 to 15.
A statement issued by Frank
Knox, publisher of the Chica-
go Daily News, appointed by
President Hoover to head the
organisation, mapped out the
campaign.
It will take the form of an
effort to persuade the public
to buy government bonds.
These will be issued in small
units, with the understanding
the money is to remain on
deposit in local banks. The
bonds, payable on demand in
SO days, will bear the current
rate of interest and will be
guaranteed by the govern-
ment’s credit.
“The definite announce-
ment of these reconstruction
bonds,” Mr. Knox said, ‘‘will be
made by the secretary of the
treasury March 7, and the
bonds themselves will be ready
for delivery at banks all over
the country March 15. The
actual campaign to secure sub-
scriptions or pledges to pur-
chase these bonds will be car-
ried on during the week of
March 7 to 15, and will be
initiated by a coast-to-cosst
broadcast participated in by
the president, the secretary of
the treasury. Brig. Gen. Char-
les G. Dawes, head of the Re-
construction Finance Corpora-
tion, and possibly others. The
time from now to March 7 will
be devoted to an intense drive
to perfect organizations in
communities throughout the
country.”

E. O. Whitton has returned
to Sterling, La., after a visit
with his family at this place.
Mrs. Whitton and son came to
Timpson several weeks ago on
account of flood conditions in
that section. Mr. Whitton has
a position with large oil com-
pany, and pictures taken in
that section show water to be
well above floors of residences
and company buildings, and
that much of the business must
of necessity be transacted,
through the use of boats. This
condition is brought about
largely by backwaters from
some of the bayous and streams
and where possible levees have
been constructed about the
premises, to afford protection
from the large body of water.
Within the cncloaures of the
levees large pumps are oper-
ated to remove the accumula-
tion of water through rains and
seepage.

Ben Heflin and other Garri-
son citizens have been at work
on the right of way on No. 35.
We have about fifteen peo-
ple on this road who are en-
tit!e{l to some dan age,” said
Mr. Heflin. “We can make up
some money in Garrison, we
can get some from property
owners along the road and Nac-
ogdoches ought to be able to
make up quite a bit. This,
with what we hope to get from
the commissioners court should
enable us to settle the claims
and get the deeds signed.”
Mr. Heflin was here Wed-
nesday discussing the matter
with Judge Shofner and Carl
Monk head of the chamber of
commerce highway committee.
He will pay the district engi-
neer’s office at Lufkin a visit
later in the week.
Some small changes in the
route as now indicated will be
sought of the district engineer.
It is hoped to bring the dis-
trict engineer here immediate-
ly to pass on these changes. If
they are approved, Mr. Heflin,

This week’s Henderson
Times carries the announce-
ment of Gary B. Sanford of
Caledonia for Representative
of Rusk county. Mr. Sanford
served in this capacity several
years ago, representing his
county efficiently, and served
on important committees while
at Austin. His candidacy has
been offered at the request of
numerous friends in the coun-
ty.

for commiasioner, and the
policy of the Legion forbids
the holding of office in the or-
ganization while in politics,
and for this reason Mr. Whit-
son stated that he desired to
resign as Legion commander.
His resignation was reluctant-
ly accepted for he has served
the organization faithfully and
was working enthusiastically
on the organization’s program
for the year.
J. Ross Hopkins is first vice-
commander and will officiate
as commander due to the va-
cancy caused by Mr. Whitson’s
resignation. A meeting had
been called for next Friday
night when new commander
will be elected, and other
business will be transacted.

UNINTENTIONAL SUICIDE
Many people are slowly
poisoning themselves just as
surely as if they drank iodine
every morning for breakfast.
They are daily absorbing the
toxins, or poisons, created by
tccumulated waste matter in
their constipated digestive sys-
tems. Sooner of later disease
will conquer their weakened
bodies.
If you have headaches, coat-
ed tongue, bad breath, no ap-
petite, bilious attacks, you are
probably suffering from self
poisoning caused by constipa-
tion. A relief for this condi-
tion is Herbine, the vegetable
cathartic which acts in the na-

Much praise is ‘due Mr.
Heflin for his untiring efforts
in trying to get the right of
way on No. 35. He has spent
his time and his money in
traveling about and discussing
the matter both with property
owners and with highway and
county officials.
The people of his communi-
ty appreciate what he has
done and they have made con-
cessions they probably would
not have made to any one else.
Others have likewise put in
time and money in trying to
get the matter adjusted. The
