Mr.. Armour contended that the

their relationship with banks and rail-
roads. He gave the committee q full

FAVORS DIRECTION
OF MEAT INDUSTRY
J. 0. Armour Suggests 1t as
Best Method to Senate
Committee.
"W0ULD SAVE MILLIONS

A monopoly Of the entire meat in
dustry of the country, under strict
government supervision. was suggest
ed by J. Ogden Armour as the best
method Of conducting the great In
dustry both for the producer and con-
sumer, testifying yesterday before the
Senate committee on agriculture.
which has before it the Kendrick bill
for government control Of the packing
industry.
Mr.. Armour told the committee that
If the plan suggested by him were
adopted, 1t would result in saving
millions of dollars annually and that
the profits of the live stock producers
would be increased while the cost to
the consumer would be reduced,
The necessity of close government
was emphasized. however,
by Mr. Armour in connection with his
proposal.
Such a concern must be regulated
by the government" he told the COM
mittee. because few men with such
enormous power would use it properly"
Denies Packers Combine.
There was no discussion of MI
Armour's plan, which he proposed dur
ing cross-examination by. Francis ].
Heney, who conducted the Federal
Trade Commissions packing house in
CURRY. The questioning then touched
upon the alleged existence of a combi-
nation among the leading packers, which
Mr. Armour denied
Mr.. Armour explained that the pack
ers contributed to a general fund, such
as might be used in joint legislative ac-
ton, and said he believed this was a
practice among industries. Pay
ments were paid on a percentage basis
which followed, he added. the basis
adopted during pool by these con-
Germs many years ago '"to prevent an
over-supplied market"
Each of the companies, he testified,
now tried to maintain about the same
share of business as at that time, but
he denied that there was any actual
agreement to that effect
Don't you think that there is a de-
cided tendency" Mr.. Heney asked,
toward eventual growth of only
three big packing companies, Armour
and Company, Swift and Company and
Morris and Company"
I've heard some such statement be-
fore. Mr.. Armour replied.

acid-stomach is the real cause Of the
trouble.
Naturally, the sensible thing to do
is to strike rightsat the very cause of
this trouble and clean the excess acid
u of the stomach. There is a quick,
easy way to do this. A wonderful new
remedy quickly remove the excess
acid without the slightest discomfort.
It is EATONIC. Made in thesgform
OF tablets-they are good to eat-just
Ike a bit of candy. They literally
absorb the Injurious excess acid and
carry 1T away through the intestines.
They also drive the bloat out OF the
body-in fact you can fairly feel it
work. Make a test of EATONIC In,
your own case today. Get a big box
of EATONIC from your druggist. See
Tor yourself how surely 1t brings quick
relief In those painful attacks of in
digestion, bitter heartburn, beiching,
disgusting food repeating, that awful
bloated, lumpy feeling after eating and
other stomach miseries. Danish all
your stomach troubles so completely
that you forget you have 4 stomach.
Then Q can eat what ynu like and
digest your food in comfort without
fear of distressing after effects.
If EATONIC does not relieve you.
Il will moi cost you one penny. You
can return 1T to your druggist and get
your moneysback. So if you have the
slightest question about your health
-if you feel you r not getting all
the strength out of your food-if You
are not feeling tip-top, ready for your
work, full of vim and vigor-do give
EATONIC q fair trial this very day
and see how much better you will feel.

Starving 4 ! In the Il!
Midst of Plenty
Acid-Stomach Steals Strength and
81. Good Feelings From Millions

One of the worst features of acid
stomach is that very often it literally
starves its victims in the midst OF
plenty. And the strange thing about
it is that the people with acid-stomachs
seldom know what their trouble
really is.
Nc matter how good or wholesome
the food may be, OF how much they
eat, they do not gain in strength.
This is clearly explained by the fact
that an acid-stomach canno properly
digest food. Instead of healthy, nor
NAL digestion, the excess acid causes
the food to sou and ferment. Then
when this mass Of sour, fermented
food, charged with excess acid, passes
into the intestines, it becomes the
breeding place for all kinds Of germs
and toxic poisons, which in turn are
absorbed into the blood and In this
way distributed throughout the entire
body. And that is exactly why it is
that so many thousands of people eat
rand eat and keep on eating and yet
Fare literally starving in the midst Of
plenty. Their acid-stomachs make #
absolutely impossible for them to get
the full measure of nourishment out
Of their food. And 1t doesn't take
long for this poor n%our1shment to show
its i'll effects in a weakened, enact
ated body.
You may say: MY stomach doesn't
hurt me-" That may be true because
many victims of acid-stomach do not
actually suffer stomach pains. Then
again, there are millions who do suffer
all kinds of aches and pains-head-
aches, rheumatic twinges, govt, lum-
bago, pains around the heart and in
the chest-who never dream that nm

GP HE old national guard is no more.
Mustered into federal service, it was
merged with the great selective serv-
ice army raised for the German war, and
lost it's identity. The army as it now stands
cannot be unscrambled into it's old ele-
ments The war department has decided
that as it is demobilized the former guards
men will return to civilian status. There
will not even be left the shell of an organi-
zation, or the legal authority to re-create II.
Something, therefore, will have to be
done soon to provide substitute. The new
army system that is to be evolved may en-
able the country to dispense with state
militia permanently, so far as federal re-
quirements are concerned. But all the
states will still need some sort of armed
forces of their own to preserve order in
emergencies.
Accordingly there is developing a wide
spread demand for estate police" such as
are already found in Pennsylvania and a
few other states. Such bodies are not mill
tia organizations at all, but genuine police,
employed continuously by the state in the
same way that municipal police are en-
ployed by cities. They take over the police
duties that formerly belonged to the state
militia or national guard, and which con-
stituted the most disagreeable obligations
of those citizen-troops.
