ACID IN STOMACH
SOURS THEF00D
Says Excess of Hydrochloric
Acid Is Cause of
Indigestion.

A 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 a lack of digestive juices.
He states that an excess of hydro
chloric acid in the stomach retards
digestion and starts food fermenta-
ton; then our meals sour, forming
acrid fluids and gases, which initiate
the stomach like toy balloon. We
then get that heavy, lumpy feeling
in the chest, we eructate sour food,
belch gas or have heartburn, flatu-
lence, water-brash or nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all diges-
tive aids and instead get from any
pharmacy four ounces of Jad Salts
and take tablespoonful in glass
of water before breakfast, while 1t
is effervescing, and furthermore. to
continue this for one week. While
relief often 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 a free
flow of pure digestive juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and Is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with 1ithia
and sodium phosphate. This harm

stomach sufferers with excellent re-

SIR ESME To LEAVE
British Ambassador to End
Long Service in U. S.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3. Tie
prohibitioniSts' shining example
among the diplomatic colony here
will say good-by to Washington
this month when Sir Esme Howard,
British ambassador, ends a period
of service which began March 5,
1924.
Sir Esme is a shining example,
not because he ever indicated belief
in prohibition, but because he be-
came so annoyed with constant
criticism of liquor privileges en-
joyed by diplomats here, he aban-
doned voluntarily the right to i'm
port further alcoholic beverages
last May.
Prohibition was not the only
problem contributing to Sir ESme's
cares in Washington. AS dean of
the corps he was compelled to de-
eide the social rank of Mrs. Edward
E. Gam, sister of Vice-President
Curtis. Sir Esme said Mrs. Gam
would be treated as second lady Of
the land.

CITY GAS CLAIM HIT
Theory of Public Trust Is
Branded fabrication

Attorneys for John j. Cotter and
other holders of Citizens Gas Com
pany stock certificates today joined
in the federal court attack on the
city's claim to the utility.
Commenting on the 1905 fran
chise, which permitted forming OF
the company as a public charitable
trust, Cotter's lawyers declared
1.-The whole theory of a public
charitable trust was manufactured
out of whole cloth by the ingenuity
of counsel"
Attorneys William L. Taylor, who
himself owns a block of stock, and
Louis Ewbank filed the brief as
friends of the court. Newton Todd,
stock broker, fled the original suit
to block the municipal ownership
program as originally provided by
founders of the company.

CHICAGO TAKE
SALARY SLASH
Workers Join Hands When
Officials Threaten to
Discharge 200.
By MERTON r. AKERS,
United Press STAFF Correspondent

CHICAGO, FEB. 3.-More thar
1900 city employees agreed to a IL
per cent slash in salaries today
rather than see 200 of their number
discharged because of the financial
crisis.
The workers, 800 of whom are po-
hcemen. are employed by the South
Park district. They will be paid on
a basis of six days work each week
instead of seven.
When told by Edward J. Kelly
president of the South Park board
and George T. Donoghue, superin-
tendent. that 200 of them would
have 10 be thrown out of work be-
cause pay funds were lacking. the
workers unanimously voted to fol-
low the zone for all and all for one
policy and accept a cut.
Loan Forthcoming
A 100000 drop of income because
OF reassessment Of the district was
given as the principal reason for
the stringency.
Meantime a $4,000, 900 straw In
the sea of debt enguhng the city
apparently was within reach Of the
municipal government.
That the city fathers would
clutch It, was the prediction Of
Alderman John S. Clark, chairman
Of the city council finance commit
tee.
Clark announced the city govern
ment will ask the citizens rescue
committee" headed by Silas Fl.
StraWn for q loan of 100000 900 on
tax anticipation warrants TO pre-
vent collapse of fire, police and
health departments.
Suburbs Hard Hit
This sum, the alderman said,
would tide essential departments
over until Feb. Is and stave off i'm
minent disaster.
AS that ray of hope appeared in
the gloom, a chorus OF woe rose
from suburbs that have begun to
feel the pinch of poverty which has
been acute in the city for weeks.
Chicago's dismal chronicle of I'M
paid policemen, f1remen, school
teachers and other employees was
written in less stupendous terms in
a dozen adjacent communities.
Clark's announcement indicated
the administration had swallowed
It's pride and bowed to the citizens
committee as the only avenue OF
escape from chaos.

proposed bout between Sammy Man.
dell, world lightweight champion, and
Jimmy McLarnin, Vancouver welter-
weight, set for February "a.
The Illinois State Athletic Commits
sion yesterday refused permission to
hold the bout on that date, saying 1t
was too close to Jack Dempsey's show
at the Coliseum, February 81.
The commission had previously al
lotted the stadium fight for February
28 and yesterday reproved Lewis and
other officials for not having made
formal applications for the February
"a date. before announcing the fight
and placing the tickets on sale.
The protest to the commission was
made by Leonard Sacks, business man
ager for Jack Dempsey, on the grounds
that the dates were too close together
to warrant either show doing the busi-

After the commission decreed the sta

VANGUARD OF MATS
ARRIVES AT BILOXI
City to Welcome Griffith
Officially Today-Fine
Weather at Camp.

~ 1LOxI, Miss, February 1.-THE
K advance guard of the Washing
ton base ball club, which will
do its preliminary conditioning
work for the approaching American
League campaign in this city, descended
upon Biloxi yesterday afternoon. Presi-
dent Clark G. Griffith headed the con-
tingent which included, in addition to
Mrs. Griffith, Ed Eynon, secretary Of
the club; Miss Mildred Robinson, Mr..
Grif1ths secretary; Frankie Baxter,
the Nationals locker room custodian,
and a newspaperman.
There was no official recognition of
the apparently most welcome event
which attended Mr.. Griff1th's arrival
here; The Nationals president mo-
tored down from Chattanooga, where
he had been staying for several days.
and the time of his arrival here was
not known in advance. The city in
tends. however, that its distinguished
visitor shall not be allowed to re-
main long within its confines without
being officially presented the tradi-
tional 'key to the city"
A welcome was to be personally ex-
tended by Biloxi's chief executive,
Mayor John Kennedy, and other city
notables at the ball park this morning.
A beautiful summary day greeted the
Washingtonians on their arrival and
save for slight attack vi the lum-
bago which bothered Griffith last VIM
ter at Tampa, every one was in fine
spirits. Preparations for the arrival Of
the ball players on February IS have
been completed, and the fans Of this
city are keenly looking forward to the
arrival of Walter johnson and his
team.

After a short time with the Ports

scouts got on my trail, and, am told,
the scout for the Giants declined to

asking for me. The late Tom Nc
