For the cause of All this dis tress lies in a torpid liver and sluggish bowels. A tablespoonful to-night means all constipation, poison, waste matter, fer menting food and sour bile gently moved out of your system by morning HOUSING DELEGATES BACK STATE CODE TContinued from First Page] Church concluded their sessions. Most of the delegates left the city on after noon trains. With D. W. Harper, of Brie, as chairman, the sessions were opin ed this morning with a paper by .Edgar A. Weimer, of Lebanon, president of the State building code commission. Mr. Weimer, unable to attend, sent William Walker Johnson in his stead. Mr. Weimer's paper pointed out the absolute necessity of having a comprehensive building code to replace the sporadic laws now scat tered through many statutes. He pointed out that such a code would protect all parties, builders as well as tenants. The housing problem is one that will In the near future, if it does not now, concern State and nation, he said, and the State should take an active Interest in it. Mr. Weimer point ed out that while housing conditions were perhaps more acute in the cities, they also were better looked after in the big centers, and that the need of the small town and of rural communi ties for building, housing and sanitary laws waa equally Insistent. Many Foolish Laws John J. Murphy, commissioner of the tenement house department of New York city followed. After com mending Mr. Weimer's plea for a codi fication of building laws and State su pervision of housing, he presented an interesting description of some of the difficulties attending the work in New York city, with its dense population and large influx of foreigners. He pointed out the number of foolish and inadequate laws that cumbered the statute books, as well as commending much good legislation that has been accomplished the past several years. Following Mr. Murphy's address rsune August Hlller, chief accountant and statlstlcan of the Pittsburgh board of public education, who read a very practical paper on financing, pointing out some of the difficulties that are met by the man of moderate means In securing his own dwelling, and sug gesting several ways by which the problem might be met. While not advocating direct State aid, Mr. Hll ler suggested that at least some sort of public fund might be used for the purpose of helping the man of mede rate means erect his own home, the fund to return only a small amount of interest. Congressman Warren Worth Bailey of Johnstown, was unable to be pres ent at the meeting nnd sent his re grets by letter which arrived this morning. He was to have spoken on taxation.

Dr. Carol Aronovici, of the Philadelphia Suburban Planning Association, de clared that the shifting of population I to the great centers created grave problems in regard to housing, and that lowering of housing standards constitutes a danger to civic advance ment and a waste of the most valu able source of resources we possess— our human resources.
