Camden, declares Charles II, Hayes, i head of tho Nonpartisan League, an organization of independent Itepublirans (and Democrats, which clectert n free- holder and three councilman in opposi tion to the Halrd machine last fall. The Nonpartisan League, represent ing the independent thought of Cam den, is the only organized opposition to machine control in that city nnd is op posed to the Democratic as well as the Hoard organization in Camden countv. In denying David Halrd's assertion that "Camden may he contented with its present rule, but is anything but corrupt." Mr. Hayes pointed to the counrilmanic election last fall in Cam den's Fifth ward, where ho said a re count had disclosed ten ballots more In tho ballot-box than registered voters in the fifth precinct of the ward. Inquiry "1 lushed Up" The recount, obtained by the Non partisan League changed the election, which on the face of the returns had elected a ltaird councilman, nnd won the election of .Tohn Dankehnan. the Nonparllsan-Democratic candidate. "A bluff nt an Investigation of the affair has been made." said Mr. linyrs. "hut it haH been hushed up nlcelv. Ihoso ten excess ballots remain in the bnllotbox today as far us I know ns a result of the recount." Mr. linyrs named political clubs In various Camden wnrd in which he said gambling was a common and conslnnt occurrence, nnd recited an instance of the methods used to keep down opposi tion to them. "In a certain ward a neighbor of one of these clubs was glveu a political Job in the machine administration," he said, "to keep him silent on the rowdyism and other conditions in the clubs. "Speaking of the influence cxercNed on the life of the city by the Balrd ma chine." he continued, "T was talking to n business man about the question of Imving the city Lexowed. This man in formed me that if he was to co-operate in such a proposal it would mean the ruin of his banking credit. He was no small business man, cither. He is a man In n position to command $100,000 credit nny time, but he dare do nothing in opposition to the Baird .political i regime." Sir. Hayes pointed to the city highway department as an instance of the ns serted waste of public funds. , "Not so long ngo," he said, "the i street commissioner got nn appropriation I of $r0,000 to clean streets. There is very i little ovldenre of it use for cleaning ! til" streets., but 1 do know that the first thing done wns to raise the salaries of i the employes in the department. They i put two men nn the dump at $" a day. I grading the dump. Tho appropriation is being eaten up in wasteful cxpendl- J tures for political henchmen Instead of I the purpose for which it was appro priated. "The highway department gel an annual appropriation of $80,000. ti.", per' cent of which goes for salnrles of office I holders. During the war not a street ivfls cleaned or paved on the. grounds that tho government had pnt,nn em bargo on supplies, hut the appropriation was eaten up just ine same. "There's just n plain 'sacrifice of pub lic money lo keep' the organization lu Uamdcn In power. "Not a man is nppolntcd to office liij either (ho city or county without the approval of Balrd. Many business en terprises In the city nr,e subsidized by tho organization."

"Yet with all the space for these machines in the public garage they arc allowed to bo put in private enrages on n monthly rental basis just to wibsidUc (lie garage, own ers in Iho interest of tho organization.' Mr. Hayes termed the jury system in Camden "rotten, with nothing honor nblo or honest in it." "A regular game of 'don't you indict my friend and t won't indict yours' Is plajcd," he said.

And while not bo concrete, the same principle holds true" in estimating the present-day trade mark value of a Coca-Cola or an O'Sulllvan Rub bcr Heel. Yet it is difficult to get the same banker who will buy for millions a trade-mark that has "arrived" to consider the construction of a national trade-mark at the cost of a few years and perhaps, five or six hundred thousand dollars.

Ih'lh Storage Millions of teeth are now cleaned in a new way. You see them everywhere white, glistening teeth. Perhaps they are teeth you envy. Then make this simple ten-day test and find out how to get them. The great tooth wrecker is a viscous film. You can feel it with your tongue. It is ever-present, ever-forming. It clings to teeth, enters crevices and stays. The tooth paste docs not end it. The ordinary tooth paste docs not dissolve it. So it stays much of it and' may do a ceaseless damage. Most tooth troubles arc now traced to film. Why Teeth Discolor That film is what discolors not the teeth. It is the basis of tartar. It holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Millions of germs breed in it. They, with tartar, arc the chief cause of pyor rhea. All these troubles arc constantly increasing, despite the wide use of the tooth brush. And the reason lies in that clinging film, and brushing leaves much of it intact. Dentists long have known this. They urge periodic dental cleaning to remove 'film and tartar. And dental science has for years sought a way to constantly combat film. ; That way has now been found. Able authorities have proved its efficiency by convincing tests. Now leading dentists everywhere arc urging its adoption. For daily use the method is embodied in a dentifrice called Pepsodent a mod ern, scientific tooth paste. Millions have already proved it. And a 10-Day Tube is being sent to anyone who asks. A Way to Fight Film Pepsodent is based on Rcpsin, the dt gestant of albumin. The film is albumi nous matter. The object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then to clay by day com bat it. But pepsin must be activated, and the usual method is an acid harmful to the teeth. So pepsin long seemed impossible. But science has discovered a harmless activating method. Convincing tests have proved this. Now. pepsin in this form can be every day applied. And in a tooth paste which conforms to every modern dental requirement. iky Now you arc urged to try if. Let it argue for itself. Compare the results with" your present methods. Let your mirror tell tlic story. There are few things more important. Bad teeth cause endless troubles. And teeth cannot be kept white, safe and sound if you leave that film. For your sake and your family's sake, find out the way to combat it. Results Are Quick and Apparent You can sco very quickly what Pepsodent does, and our book will tell you why. Send the coupon for a 10 Day Tube. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the slimy film. Sec how the teeth whiten as the fixed film disappears. Once learn what clean teeth really mean and you'll always want them.
