With the signing of the bill before President Roosevelt, the little businessman gets a great big break. The
bill sets up a $150,000,000 corporation to help small business get war contracts. Congressional backers of
the measure stand behind the President. Left to right, they are: Senator James E. Murray of Montana,
Representative Wright Patman of Texas, and Senator James Mead of New York.

Al ILLIONS suffer less from Headache, Acid Indigestion, Distress
of Colds “Morning After” and Muscular Fatigue because they
have heard—and believed—Alka-Seltzer radio announcements.
To these millions, the relief obtained by the use of Alka-Seltzer
is worth far more than the genuine enjoyment they get from the
broadcasts.
The most important parts of our radio program, both to you and
to us, are the commercial announcements. Once you have tried
Alka-Seltzer we believe you will agree with us.
But try Alka-Seltzer because it is an unusually effective medi-
cine not because you enjoy the radio programs.
WHY ALKA-SELTZER IS SO EFFECTIVE
The pain-relieving analgesic in Alka-Seltzer is in complete solu-
tion, ready to ease the distress as soon as you swallow it The
painrelieving action is made more effective by alkaline buffers.
The alkalizing elements in Alka-Seltzer reduce excess stomach
acidity.
