Era prop6sito del Gobierno que

del asunto reclama, mediante una

PUT STOMACH IN
FINE CONDITION
Says Indigestion Results from
an Excess Of Hydroch|oric
Acid.

Undisested food delayed in the
stomach decays, or rather, ferments
the same as food left in the open air,
says noted authority. He also tells
us that Indigestion is caused by
Hyper-acidity. meaning, there is an
excess of hydro-chloric acid in
the stomach which prevents COM
plete digestion and starts food
fermentation. Thus everything
eaten sours in the stomach
much like garbage sours in a can.
forming acrid fluids and gases which
initiate the stomach like toy balloon.
Then We feel heavy. lumpy misery
in the chest, we belch up gas. we
eructate sour food or have heartburn,
flatulence, water-brash or na,,sea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, ret from any phar-
macy,sf four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in glass of
water before breakfast and drink
while IT is effervescing and further
more, to continue this for week
While relief follows the first dose. 1t
is important to neutralize the acidity,
remove the gas-making mass, start
the liver, stimulate the kidneys and
thus promote free flow of pure
digestive juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made
from the acid of cranes and lemon
Juice, combined with lithia and So
dunn phosphate This harmless salts
is used by thousands of people for
stomach trouble with excellent results

FRANKLIN'S BIRTHDAY
IS OBSERVED IN THE
ALBUQUERQUE SCHOOLS

The birthday of Benjamin Franklin.
apostle of thrift, was observed in the
city schools yesterday In the high
school at 1890 o'clock in the fore
noon, Dr. W. G.. Hope delivered a
splendid address on thrift an dquoted
a number of Franklin's sayings from
Poor Richards Almanac and 9TH
erwise
Among other things, Dr., Hope
showed that the people who have
saved in a small way--who were salts
fled to lay aside small part of their
income each year and put it out at in
terest--that that interest compounded
year by year was the surest way to a
competency in old age.
He pointed cut the value of invest
ing in building and loan associations
for instance, where money may be
paid in in small installments monthly
and drawn out in few years with in
terest added. There is absolutely no
loss on their securities The invest
ment is safe and generally pays an IN
terest rate of about 10 per cent. This
has been the history of local associa-
tons.
At the First ward school, Prof. john
Milne spoke at the assembly hour and
in the other ward schools the subject
of thrift was brought before the pu-
pills in each ROOM

GOD OFFICIALS
DID NOT CONTROL
MEAT INDUSTRY
Expert Accountant Tells Sen
ate Committee That Profits
Grew by Leaps and Bounds
During War,


Washington, Jan. flood add
minisfration regulations neither reg
ulated profits of the meat packers
nor benefited the public or the con-
sumers, Stuart Chase, an expert ac-
countant employed by the federal
trade commission, told the senate
agricultural committee today in pre-
senting figures ito show that profits
of the five big packing concerns had
doubled and trebled during the war.
Mr., Chase, who was testifying at
hearings on the kendrick bill pro-
Viding for government supervision of
the meat industry, said no one knows
accurately what the packers earn-
ings are because their methods of
bookkeeping have the effect Of COW
ering up their profits. He declared
however, that examinations. by the
commission of the books of Armour
and company Morris and company
Swift and company, Wilson and COM
pany and the Cudahy company
showed their aggregate profits in
1912 was $lS,715,000 and in 1917,
sos, $4,000.
Based on capital stock, Mr.. Chase
said Morris and company's profits
in 1917 were 26T.7 per cent and
that on the same basis Armour and
company > DTOlltS III lJlO WERE IL
per cent. Because of a later increase
in capital stock, the percentage for
Amour and company dropped to 27.1
per cent in 1917. Swift and COM
pany's profits in 1917 on the same
basis were So per cent. while those
of the Cudahy company in 1917 were
23.2 per cent based on capital stock
and surplus. Wilson and companyS
earnings for the same year were 29.6
per cent on the combined capital
and surplus.
The witness said Thomas Wilson,
president of Wilson and company,
receives an annual salary of $l25,-
900 and Vice President Valentine of
Armour and company received $780,
600 salary annually with bonus or
S35 900 He said he thought vice
President White also receives the
same amount while President Morris
of Morris and company is paid Wv,
900 salary with $4,000 addltonai
for being president of stock yards
company.
Senator Norris of Nebraska sought
TO ascertain from Mr. Chase as to
whether the packers books showed
any expenditures made for the pur-
nose of influencing legislation. the
witness said he recalled seeing en-
tries in Armour and companys books
showing the paymen. of legal ices
to attorneys principally in state cap
itals for services in introducing plils
and watching legislatures. He sald
he did not believe the whole amount
would exceed $4,000.

ans investigators for the federal
trade commission at the time of it's
recent packers investigation testi-
fled relatively TO the examination OF
