dred and six men were killed at the
three big government aviation fields

recent close of aerial activities, ac

In the same period, the three fields

No More Rheumatism
Torturing Pains anil Swollen Joints
Vanish When Kliciinia Is Used.
At last a real remedy for rheuma
tism! And a good one it must be when
Kennedy's Drug More, and good
druggists everywhere sell it on the
no-cure no-pay basis.
Rheumutics should hail the new.M
with great rejoicing, for it is surely
a remarkable remedy and has a rec
ord of almost unbelievable cures.
Read what J. F. Oliver of Albany, Ua.,
says about it:
"1 had sciatic rheumatism for two
years, and tried every medicine offer
ed for rheumatism. Tried many doc
tors, was treated at one of the best
Southern sanatoriums, utid if I im
proved any 1 did not realize it. I am
a conductor on the Central of Geor
gia railroad, and had secured a pass
to Hot Springs, Arlt., to take treat
ment. About that time I saw ltheu
ma advertised and concluded to try it.
1 abandoned my trip, took three bot
tles, and now feel us well as ever. I
would not take a hundred thousand
dollars for what Rheutna has done
for me.
If you have rheumatism in any form
don't delay—try Rheunta today. A
large bottle is not expensive, and
your money back if it docs not give
you quick and joyful relief.

FRIDAY EVENING, HXKRJSBTJRG *&&&& TELEGRAPH MAY 2, 1919.
I during: the training: period the actual
I dying hours at Carrutliers field t°- '
taled 35,000, at Barron field 36,008,
and at Taliaferro field, 32,488.
The tail spin and nose dive were |
responsible for a large majority oi
the accidents, according to officers.
In the entire training period not a
single American cadet was killed on !
the first solo flight. This is at'ri- i
buted to the thorough instruction in ,
ground work. Three British filers
were killed on solo flights.
While the tail spin and nose dive
were chief factors in the fatality list,
there were many other contributing
causes.
Captain Vernon Castle, the Ameri
can dance interpreter, who had faced
death numerous times over the (ter
raan lines as a British aviator, swerv
ed his machine sharply to avoid hit
ting another aviator here. He lacked
height for the maneuver, crashed and
was killed.
The young son of General Peyton
C. March, chief of staff, was killed at
the gunnery tield while engaged in
combat practice at a height of 2,000
feet. The wings of his machine be
came entangled with those of his
opponent's plane.
Captain Robert Isett, of Providence,
post adjutant at Barron field, fell
from the greatest height. 5.000 feet.
Two men fell from their planes nr
great heights because of failure to
strap themselves in.

SAYS SALVADOR
NEEDS MONEY
New Minister at Washington
Has Reached United
States
Snn Francisco, Cal„ May 2.—The
first and greatest need of the re
public of Salvador is money, said
Salvador Sol, new Minister of Pleni
potentiary at Washington for that
country who has just arrived from
South America. The money is needed
at once, according to Minister Sol.
"Twenty-five millions of dollars are
needed to properly take care of our
coffee crop and the government of
t.he republic will not only welcome
foreigrf capital but will make every
fair inducement to attract it," he said.
"We are particularly anxious to in
crease our commercial relations with
the United States.
"The reason that Salvador did not
actively enter into the war against
Germany, was the fact that there was
an old clique of politicians favorable
to that country. Since the war that
element has been completely elimin
ated. 'l'lie administration of the
country as elected now is entirely in
the hands of pro-American officials.
01(1- president, Jorge Melendcz, was
educated in the United States and 1
am one of a number of ethers in
official positions who have had the
same advantage;.
"We are particularly anxious for
some large banks who can do business
in a big way to open up in Salvador.
There are two banks of a capital of
a half million dollars who have
started business hut what we really
need is an institution which will have
a capital of at. least ten millions of
dollars.
"Any man who has capital, say
about $lO,OOO, will find excellent op
portunities for investment which, with
work and care, will bring him returns
well worth while. I should strongly
advise against any young man who
has only his hands and his brain to
depend on from going down there.
"Our coffee before the war. was
consumed in France, Italy, Germany
and Kngland. Now Germany is elim
inated and the United States is get
ting one-half of our crop.
"It will be my particular endeavor
to foster tiie commercial relations
between the two countries and to in
terest capital.
"We rely for our protection on the
United States confident of its fairness;
so much so that we sent our delegate
to tlie Paris Peace convention instruc
ted to concur with the vote of the
United States on all questions which
came up. We do not fear anything
as we are confident that the Monroe
Doctrine will stand and that this
country will safeguard the nations of
this continent."

QUALITY is the outstanding feature of the suits that Wm.
Strouse is selling at such remarkably low prices. There is no mystery
connected with the astounding difference between Wm. Strouse prices and JlSiflW*
the prices of other stores. It is simple logic—apparent to anyone familiar /yfS: \
with the merchandising conditions of today, and can be summed up as j
1. Clothing prices have dropped 25 per cent —
2. This means that suits of the same quality and tailoring which sold
at $4O retail, in the beginning of the season,'can now be retailed ||
3. Therefore, if a merchant is not overstocked with this "beginning • fejlj,
of season priced" clothing, he can afford to go to the market \\\
every week and buy the latest models at the latest prices. |A i \
