Albrecht CELEBRATION of the 44th an-niversary of the foimding of Acme stores, locally owned grocery chain, is being held this week First store of the chain that now covers Akron and nearby towns was opened at Center st. and E. Buchtel av. by Fred W.

Albrecht in 1891. Mr. Albrecht died a few years ago, and the business is now carried on by his two sons, Hurl J. Albrecht and Ivan W. Albrecht, as president and treasurer, respectively, of the F.

W. Albrecht Grocery Co. Have Long Service The company has prided Itself on being operated entirely by local men and on the fact that many of its employes have long periods of service. Ninety-four employes have been with the organization for more than 10 years. Of these, 12 have been in service 25 years or more, 11 for 20 years, 16 for 15 years, and 56 for 10 years.

Practically all of the executives, supervisors and store managers are men who started in at the bottom as extra clerks. The company's personnel represents a comprehensive cross-section of the city's civic and religious lire, witn practically every fraternal group, luncheon club and religious denomination represented. Generations Served A unique feature of the Acme stores' trade, as the company grows older, is that succeeding generations of housewives buy ineir groceries at the stores. Managers report that they have nad as their customers grandmothers and daughters of the same families. The company's purchasing system is far-flung, products being obtained from nearly every state in the union and many foreign countries.

Produce and fruit obtainable in this state, however, is Here is all that was left Thursday of the home of Ernest Chapman, Cuyahoga st. extension, after a raging fire swept through it late Wednesday morning. Firemen declare the blaze was started by sparks from a stove igniting the roof. Damage was estimated at $2,000. Inset is Mrs.

Florence Hardesty, a victim of paralysis for the last year, Chapman's mother, who was carried from the house by her brother, William Reed, and another resident of the home, Burt Patton.

Mining issues advanced sharply in today's stock market, reflecting the government's overnight boost in the domestic silver price to 77.57 cents an ounce. The rails also stiffened, along with various specialties, but many industrials hugged a narrow groove. Shares up around 1 to 3 pdints included Cerro de Pasco, U. S. Smelting, American Smelting, Silver King, Howe Sound, Santa Fe, N.

Y. Central, American Can, American Tobacco and Douglas Aircraft. Fractionally firmer tendencies were displayed by U. S. Steel, American Telephone, Consolidated Gas, General Motors, Chrysler, Du Pont, Case and Standard Oil of New Jersey.

Trading was active. Call money renewed at 1-4 of 1 per cent. Watch Work Fund In addition to the new high price for silver brokerage quarters Were preoccupied with the federal network designed by the president for the spending of $4,000,000,000 for works relief. Among favorable guide-posts to sentiment were Wall Street calculations showing first quarter net earnings of 26 companies at the best levels in five years. On the other hand some unrest was noted in Wall Street over prospective power rate cuts in New York and New Jersey.

A note of restraint was injected into Wall Street calculations by the report of the department of commerce which said business ac tivities generally had failed to show progress in 33 cities with the exception of automobile sales and pre-Easter retail buying. Banking circles focused attention on the loss of 361,000,000 francs in the gold reserves of the Bank of France for the week ending April 19 which reduced the bank's holdings to. 81,023,000,000 francs, the lowest total since Aug. 19, 1934. In the foreign exchange market the French franc opened off .00 1-8 of a cent at 6.591-2 cents.

The pound sterling opened of 3-8 of a cent at. $4.83 1-2. The guilder rose .01 of a cent at 67.54 cents. AKRONSJOCKS E. A.

The Acme stores are the outlet for the product of a large bakery and cracker factory owned and operated by'the company in Akron. for steak and potatoes. Two or three of them recovered. Thia new chemical did not al ways save the Bright's disease sufferers. Sometimes it had no effect.

The reason now appears to be that more than one of the chemical balancers was given that one nullified the action cf the other. The separation of these body chemicals is one of the most difficult problems of chemistry. i.ach Relieves Disease Two chemicals which have to be used together in Addison's disease have been found respectively by Edward C. Kendall of the Mayo clinic, and Dr. Oliver S.

Kamm of Detroit. Each by itself relieves the disease to some extent. Together, they appear to offer complete relief. But, again, the balancing" problem comes in. The proportions of each apparently must he exact.

Both chemicals are extracted from the cortex of the adrenal glands. Animal glands again appear to supply the same compounds as human bodies. I fv hrt A fa? Body Chemicals Fight Ills Find Half Dozen New Compounds In Human System Which Relieve Diseases By the Associated Frest DETROIT, April 25. Chemicals made by the body itself give the best hope of relieving disease. Half a dozen new ones which illustrate this are reported in the proceedings of the American Physiological society and the American Society of Biological Chemists.

Sponsors Of Church School Vote In Objection To Parochial Grant Officials of Zlon Lutheran church, which supports the only non-Catholic parochial school in Akron, are on record Thursday as opposed to state aid for such schools. Rev. E. F. Noack, pastor; Rev E.

M. Malkow, assistant pastor, and Gustave Derer, principal of the church school, joined 130 other clergymen and parochial school officials in a statement reaffirming their belief in the principle ot complete separation of church and state. Meet In Cleveland The action was taken at the conclusion of a two-day confer ence at St. Matthew's Lutheran church, Cleveland, Wednesday. The statement Issued by the conference follows; We, the Lutheran pastors and Lutheran parochial school teachers of Ohio In con-' ven (ion at St.

Matthew'! Evangelical Lutheran church, Scranton rd. and Meyer Cleveland, April 24, 1936, do hereby register our protest against the passaga of Senate Bill No. 360, by which $3,000,009 would be granted for the support of parochial and private schools. We protest for the following; reason: 1 The granting of state aid would a violation of the principle of separation of church and state. We believe that both church and state have their own sharply defined spheres of activity and that one shall not trespass upon the rights of the other.

The granting of state aid to parochial schools would be a violation of the Constitution of Ohio, Article 1, Section 7, whlcli expressly states: "All men have a natural and Indefeasible right to worship the Almighty God according to the dictates ot their own conscience. No person shall be compelled to attend, erect or support any place of worship, or maintain any form of worship against his consent; and no prefetence shall be given by law, to any religious society; nor shall any Interference with the rights of conscience be permitted." Against Oar Conscience 3 Tne granting of state aid to parochial schools would be forcing us against our will and conscience to support a system of religion with which we do not agree. 4 An emergency may exist in the Roman Catholic church that it is not able to support Its parochial schools, but there is no emergency as far as the state of Ohio is concerned. The state department of education at the public hearing of this bill before the finance committee gave out the information that the public schools could take on 100.000 pupils with out eny additional expense and that the remaining number up to 70.000 could also be absorbed with small additional cost. We, together with all citizens of our state, are at present supporting a common school system of elementary secular Instruction.

Wherever the parochial or private system cannot maintain itself, these public schooli are open to every child of the state. If any parochial school system were to be in v. hole or in part created by or sustained by state funds, two systems would be maintained for the same purpose, which Is entirely unnecessary. No private schools nor any parochial schools, except Roman Catholic want this legislation. The Reman Catholic church, however, is de priving itself by its own free will of the use of our common public school secular instruction.

It has established its own schools for the sole reason and the purpose of teaching religion directly and giving religious color also to the secular blanches taught. Were the state to pass this so-called Davis bill we would be required to pay double taxes, first for public and secondly for Roman Catholio schools in addition to maintaining our own Lutheran schools.

AKRON BARBERTON NEW YORK SPOT The wild confusion which marked the end of the Albany legislative session with Governor penman and his party leaders in the legislature mutually snarled on several issues had more of a bearing on the national political picture than you might suspect.

Leaders of the anti-Roosevelt drive are especially anxious to sink him in his own state for the psycholo i a 1 effect on tne rest of the country. The veteran H. H. Lehman republican senate leader George Fearon is highly regarded for his experience and political skill by democrats as well as his own followers. A number of democratic leaders have fallen into the habit of consulting him frequently.

Those who should know say that he made subtle and effective contributions to democratic discord stirring Tammany antagonism to the Lehman-Farley wing and vice versa. Tammany is now frankly out to rebuild its own fortunes and will shed no tears if it becomes necessary to knife Mr. Roosevelt en route. The boys feel strongly about the favors they expected and didn't get. Even Leader Dunnigan supposedly a Farley man got into several tangles with the governor.

Insiders frankly rate him as something less than a genius at politics and infer he was trapped Into awkward situations by people who had a clearer idea of what they were after. Both his maneuvers and Tammany's put Lehman on the spot. And anything which weakens Lehman's position also damages the cause of his friend in the White House. HARMONY Several backstage New York republican leaders wish their party spokesmen would learn that silence is golden. They figure that republican chances for 1936 will be greatly enhanced if the party avoids all commitments on specific issues thereby offering as broad a refuge as possible to the discontented.

They are confident that the democrats will cut each other's throats without any help if left alone. On this basis it's felt that Hoover would have done better by his prospects for renomination if he hadn't emerged from seclusion so Boon. But while informed New Yorkers scoff at Hoover's prospects of being drafted they do concede that he is performing a useful service. Republicans whose blood pressure rose alarmingly at mention of his name a year ago now apeak In complimentary terms of his "constructive efforts to restore party harmony." STEPPED The million-dollar loss reported by the Amoskeag Manufacturing Co. for 1934 as compared with a small profit the year before is taken with salt jr.

informed quarters. The company complains it was badly hurt by the. processing tax and higher labor and city tax costs. The differerce in these items between 1933 and 1934 is reported as aggregating 2'2 million dollars. But at the same time a $4,000,000 reduction in material costs is recorded, to say nothing of an increase in gross sales.

Shrewd observers point out that Amoskeag one of the biggest cotton textile mills has a case to make. It's fighting for the abolition of the processing tax and the wage differential between northern and southern mills. Comment runs that depreciation charges are a handy item in a profit and loss account. Corporations have been known to step them up as a matter of conservative accounting of course when they wished to appear as pale and Interesting invalids. CLUE F.

D. order to the tariff commission to investigate imports of Japanese bleached cotton cloth looks offhand like much ado about nothing. An item amounting to 1 per cent of domestic production hardly seems to justify the excitement. But New York sharps figure the president is whetting a useful blade which can cut either way. American textile manufacturers have not been seriously damaged by the influx of competitive Japanese products but they are alarmed by the rapid rate of its acceleration in the last six months, It could become a dangerous fac tor in time especially to the New England mills which are handicapped by the wage differential in favor of southern factories.

Don't forget it's New England which raising the big yell about processing taxes. Astute observers say that the tariff commission could report either that the imports are too n-significant to bother about or that they represent a growing menace which should be nipped in the bud without straining credibility. The former would be useful to the pres-' ident if he wants to get tough with the New England protestants the "latter if he wants to soothe their resentment at AAA policies. New York expects the commission's findings and the use to which they are put to afford a valuable clue as to the administration's future policy toward business.

Walker said Thursday. The ordinance council enacted a month ago, approved by Mayor I. S.

Myers, raising labor wages from 50 cents an hour to 60 cents, became effective today. "If council wants to raise the laborer's wages 20 per cent, council will have to provide the additional 20 per cent," Walker said. "Those wages are in the same category as the salary restorations approved for city employes under the $2,500 bracket. No money was appropriated by council to meet the situation. No money remains in the general fund.

We have an overdraft of more than $400,000 now. There will be no pay raises unui tne money is available."

They tip it toward either health or illness. Enough of them means health; too little, sickness.

The amounts necessary to deflect the body scales are something less than the size of a grain of dust a day. Two of these new chemicals have been found in Bright's disease, the incurable kidney malady. One of them lowers blood pressure and the amount of the salt in the body. The other prevents decreases of salt. Both are manufactured in the human kidney.

But substitutes obtained from hog kidneys appear to be identical. The one which lowers both blood pressure and salt has been given to persons in a coma, dying from Bright's disease.
