More Than 100 Towns Out of Coal.

CHICAGO, January 30.-More than
100 towns in southern Illinois are COM
pletely out of coal and the fuel situa-

SAYS ACID STOMACH
CAUSES INDIGESTION
Excess of hydroChloric acid
sourS the food and
forms gases.

CndiEested food delayed in the
stomach decays. or rather, ferments
the same as food left in the open
air, says a noted authority. He also
tells as that Indigestion is caused
by Hyper-acidity. meaning there -
an excess of hydrOchlOric acid in
the stomach which prevents com
plete digestion and starts food fer
mentation. Thus everything eaten
sours in the stOmac much like gar
baRe sOurs in a can. forming acrid
fluids and gases which initiate the
stomach like A toy balloon. Then
we feel a heavy lumpy, misery in
the chest, we belch up gas, We
eructate sour food or have heart
burn, flatUlence, waterbrash or
nausea.
He tells us TO lay aside all diEes-
tive aids and instead, get from any
and take a tablespoonful in "A glass
while X is effervescinE, and fur
thermore, TO continue this for a
week. While relief follows tho first
dose. IL is important to neutraliZe
the acidity, remove the gas making
mass, start the liver. stimulate the
kidneys and thus promote A free
flow CT pure digestive juices.

made from the acid Of grapes and

GARF|ELD'S OFFICE
UNDER SIEGE AS
SENATORS PROBE

The fuel administration Re under
siege again today.
The subcommittee OF the Senate
Manufactures Committee, charged
with the duty of investigating the
coal shortage, is in session today in
an attempt to draw a formal report TO
submit to the Senate. Senator James
Reed OF Missouri, chairman of the
committee, has submitted an individ-
ual report to the members Of the sub
committee. which strongly criticises
the fuel administration by "a state
ment OF facts"
The problem now before the COM
mittee is a recommendation. Senator
Lodge, a, member OF the committee,
has come out openly and strongly for
the abolition of the fuel administra-
ton. Senator Reed is OF the same
opinion. On the other hand. Senator
Jones Of New Mexico is a strong de-
fender Of the fuel administration, and
is most likely TO prove an obstacle in
the way OF any recommendations do
ing away with the fuel administra-
ton.
Senators Kenyon OF Iowa and
Vardaman Of Mississippi, the remain
ing two members OF the committee,
are known TO be openly opposed to
the methods which the fuel admins
tration has pursued. but there is a
question whether they will support
any action on the part Of the commit
tee for the doing away with DR.. Gar
fields bureau.
When the committee met today the
result of their Investigations was en-
tirely unsettled. They have a huge
mass of evidence to present to the
Senate. but as for recommendations
there is no solid opinion. Senator
Lodge would have the fuel problem
placed entirely in the hands of Secre-
tary OF the Interior Lane. 1t is ex-
tremely doubtful that he can get the
committee to make any such strong
recommendation to the Senate.
Senaor Jones has indicated that he
will defend the fuel administration to
the last ditch, and if he hnds that his
influence will not swing the report
Of the committee. he will make a mi
nority report.

Stringent regulations to further

have been issued by Secretary Nc
Adoo. The new regulations will in
no way conflict with rules already in
force, but contemplate strengthening
them.
Under the new regulations all yes

possession OF. Any persons on board
may be searched If the captain of the
port has grounds for suspecting his
carrying explosives or being OF a
suspicious character.
Clearance may be refused any YES
sci carrying infammable or explosive
materials if they are not properly
slowed. Clearance may also be de-
MEL any vessel carrying persons
whose departure from the country the
Federal authorities do not desire.
A similar set OF regulations is sug-
gested by Secretary of War Baker
for all industrial plants inland. He
suggests that ach plant have its SUI
