Is Your
Stomach
A "Gasser"?

Excessive gas in stomach and bowels
doesn't necessarily mean that your food
is at fault or that you have chronic
dyspepsia. In most cases il results
from gastric neurasth enia--a purely
nervous condition which disturbs the
functional activity of the stomach.
Taking medicine to digest the food arti-
ficially is a waste of time. What you
need is a remedy to correct the nervous
trouble and prevent the formation of
abnormal gas.
Go to your druggist and ask for a
package of BaalThann's Gas Tablets.

A resolution is being circulated
among members of the Foreign Re-

Imperialists Rule

WASHINGTON, Nov, 20. -
Hoover will next meet with the
finance imperialists, the Wall Street
bankers. This is the second step
in the economic crisis conferences.
Yesterdays meeting with the
railorad bosses showed that unem-
ployment on a mass scale was be-
coming a fact. In an interview with
capitalist press correspondents,
Hoover said that one of the main
objects of his conference was to
combat the specter of unempioy-
ment by popping up industry.
The railroad executives refused
to take any steps. They passed the
buck to other organizations. Rather
than increase expenditures for the
coming year the best estimate they
could make was reduction c. so
per cent.
The capitalist press reports that
the railroads promised to spend
$1,000,000,000 during the coming
year to help stem the economic
crash. In normal" times, they
spend $1,25O,OOO,OOO for material
and supplies, and $750;000,O00 for
capital investment.

MARION, N. c., Nov. 20.-The

mediately under their influence, has
offered its aid to Sheriff Adkins if
he should get orders to kill some
more strikers. Adkins led about 20

Judge Fowler, on charges of rebel
lion, insurrection and rioting." Ad-
kins is not being tried for anything.
Hoffman Innocent.
The evidence given against Hoff-
man proves conclusively that this
lis a one hundred percent frame-up
on him. Hoffman urged the strik-
ers to picket with bibles, not guns,
made them put a scab's furniture
back in his house, told them not to
do like the Communists at Gastonia,
where a police chief was shot while
leading a murderous raid on the
strikers tent colony, and sold out
the strike at the first opportunity
The evidence" of his rebellion
consists of such expressions as this,
which he is alleged to have used:
"We want you strikers to give the
boss men hell. If we can scare
them into leaving, the others will
join the union; Somebody is 60
ing to the chain gang over this, if
they are scared they had better pull
OUT; "If you have to steal, steal
from the non-union, and borrow
from the union" The judge has al
ready stated that most of this testi-
mony seems to have little to do
with the charge of rebellion.
The state finished its case today
f, F. Barnes, a county official, tes-
titled he heard Hoffman tell the
strikers, "The Marion mill can't
open its gates for hell or high
water" E. ]. Ross, grocery clerk
corroborated this, and said Hoffman
told the strikers to obey the law
