well-known authority states that stomach trouble and indigestion are nearly always due to acidity-acid stomach-and not as most folks be- lieve, from lack of digestive juices He states that an excess of hydro chloric acid in the stomach retards digestion and stars food fermenta tion. then our meals sour like gar bage in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases which inflate the stomach like a toy balloon. We then get that heavy, lumpy feeling in the chest we eructate sour food, belch gas. or have heartburn, flatulence, water brash, or nausea.
 He tells us to lay aside all diges- tive aids and instead, get from any pharmacy four ounces of lad Salts and take a tablespoonful in glass of water before breakfast while it is effervescing, and furthermore, to con- tinue this for one week When relief follows the first dose. it is important to neutralize the acidity. remove the gas-making mass, start the liver. stimulate the kidneys and thus pro- mote a free flow of pure digestive juices,

N [ W RAIL TARIFFS ARE UNASSAILABLE,
 RUSHTON ADVISES
State Drops Suit Over Meri- dian Rate Case at Advice of Special Counsel of
 Commission
By FRED Ii. GORMLEY Montgomery Bureau The Age Herald, 22I-2 First National Bank Building

Montgomery, March 14.-(Special0 Ray Rushton, special counsel for the -state .n the Meridian rail case, has ad- vised Attorney General Harwen G. Davis that the tariffs filed by the Mo- !, bile and Ohio and other railroads in compliance with the latest orders of the interstate commerce commission are unassailable and that no further action should be taken by the state to prevent the enforcement of the commissions decision
 The advice was given in a letter ad- dressed 10 the Attorney General, a copy of which was made public by the public service commission today. When the interstate commerce com mission announced it's modified de- cision several weeks ago, the public service commission announced that every legal step would be taken to ! protect the interests of Alabama ship pers, but Mir. Rushton. who had been employed as special counsel, maue a study of the latest decision of the su- preme court uphoiding the powers of the interstate commerce commission and of the railroad tariffs and advised that further effort should not be made. After telling of the modifica- ton made by the interstate commerce  commissions decision MT. Rushton in letter to the attorney general said:
 This new order is not assailable in the state courts, and the proceed ings instituted by us having become moot cases, l. after advising with you, have caused the same to be dismissed without prejudice.
 The only attack that can now be made on the new rates is by direct attack on the interstate commerce commissions order in the federal courts in Mississippi, and after very thorough examination of the authori- ties 1 cannot advise the institution of such a procedure by the state at the present time The order as now for mulated appears to be unassailable, and until the railroads involved show some disposition to abuse the order or go beyond it's terms. we are not en- titled to another injunction"

DAUGHERTY DISAPPOINTED AT OPERATORS REFUSAL

Palm Beach, Fla, March 14.-Dis- appointment at the refusal of the operators to meet the coal miners in conference in an effort to make a new contract to replace the one expiring March 31. was expressed today by Attorney General Dougherty. At the same time he reminded all parties that the threatened coal strike in volved the interests of the public and is not private controversy.
 The public would look to the gov ernment for protection in the event of an emergency the attorney gen eral added
 T think it was mistake on the part of the operators to hold out against preliminary conference with mine workers" MT. Daugherty declared. There is a contractual relation between the two interests. They agreed under terms of the 1920 scale agreement to meet and discuss new scale. They ought to do so. And it is fair to remind them that the government itself is a party to this contract and therefore has a right to take hand in the business.' '
 Also all parties involved" the at torney general continued. might re- member that the present dispute is not private affair. The public is interested and it's rights must be pro- ected by the government, as l think they will be insofar as may be pos sible."
 Expressing the hope that the threatened strike would not take place, MT. Daugherty added:
 T hope the strike will not take place, of course. but if it does those immediately involved might remem- Der that the country must not be left without the fuel necessary to maintain transportation and essential industries" The attorney general made it plain that he was not taking sides in the controversy but that the public is vitally interested and that it makes it's voice heard through the pnuarnYnapf
