Speaking of the recent slaugh ter of moose on Kenai peninsula for use in Anchorage, the Seward Post says editorially that if con ditions are not righted in short order it is not improbable that the entire western half of the peninsula will be turned into a national park, similar to the Yel- lowstone, and placed under guard of federal troops, which would put an end to hunting of any kind within the resrve. Some of the packers of this national park pro ject favor making the whole pen insula into q park" asserted the Post. There are herds of consid erable size in many parts of the peninsula, but reports from all available sources indicate that thg total number left does not exceed 2,5oo. With a town of 200 peo- pie subsisting almost entirely on the moose meat, the animals on the peninsual would soon be ex- terminated. The game wardens say that the present law is toe flax, and also that the expense money is not sufficient to enable them ito keep to the field and watch for Violators.

How To Prevent
Acid StOmachs And
Food Fermentation
BY a New York Physician.

MY experience has forced me to the
conclusion that most people who COM
plain OF stomach trouble possess stom-
achs that are absolutely healthy and
normal. The real trouble, that which
causes all the pain and difficulty, is
excessive acid in the stomach, aggra-
waited by food fermentation. Hyper
acidity irritates the delicate lining of
the stomach abnormally, causing that
full bloated feeling. Thus, both acid
and fermentation interfere with and
retard the process of digestion. The
stomach wall is usually healthy and
normal, hut irritated almost past en-
durance by these foreign elemeIns-
acid and vino. In all cases-and they
comprise a great majority of all stom-
ach diificulties-the first and only step
necessary is to neutralize the acid and
stop the fermentation by taking in a
little warm or cold water Immediately
, after eating, from one to two teaspoon
fuls OF bsurated magnesla, which is
the most effective antacid and food cor
rective | have ever found. The excess
acid will he neutralized, and the fer
mentation stopped almost instantly,
and your stomach will at once pro-
ceed TO digest the food IN healthy,
normal manner. BE sure to ask YOUR
druggist for bisurated magnesia rath-
er than magnesia in any other forms. -

viii Be Headed by n. NJ. Nc
Larin.

The Federal EMPLOYEES Union will ask
the American Federation OF Labor for
n local ana not n national charter. ac-
cordinp to announcement made today
by officials Of the organization.
AccompanvinV an announcement of
tho election of II. NJ McIarln as per-
mnnent nresldent and the selection Of
other officers was statement con-
cerninR the form of union to be affili-
ated with the American Federation OF

Tho statement follows:
THE form OF this organisation in
order to affiliate with the American
Federation OF Labor must be what r.
known as local labor union--in. exact
terms--a Federal Labor Union-com-
prlsing persons following several diff
ferent trades or occupations. Unionized
labor Is organized along trade lines as
far as practicable. because the trades
men Of the different kinds are pealous
Of their OCCUPATIONS and must each
work for the ends OF persons following
his own trade.

I'm this wav. membership In trades
unions is limited to persons actually
employed In such trades. In order to
permit the organization of persons In
localities where there are not enough
of the various tradesmen to warrant
their having separate organizations.
there has been established by the Am
eiican Federation OF Labor form of
union called a Federal Labor Union.
as described As above. so that all the
tredesmeE NAV combine their efforts
effectively for their own advancement
and protection. The national or inter-
national ORGANIZATIONS are composed of
these local trades unlons-not Federal
Labor Unions. Under the constitution
OF the American Federation of Labor

NAV he formed by any seven existing
local unions OF one particular trade
But national or international or
ganization connot he formed OF any one
organization OF any number of organi-
cations IN one citv or town. There must
be at least seven organizations In diff
fercnt cities to form a national organ
ization. Consequently Il is entirely i'm
practical to form a national federation
of Government employees In the city Of
Washington"
Discussion for and against a national
charter has been warm and spirited
among the members of the union for
several days. The union members in
the Department OF Labor held an indi-
nation meeting yesterday, and adopted
resolutions denying the rumor that they
favored a national charter. The De-
partment of Labor members favor a
local charter.
