seems to me it has q meaning. I
think we can separate stomach
ache from indigestion.
Stomach-achc, if it is a real
ache, colicky and rccurrcnt. in
most cases means a definite or
ganic disease of the digestive an
paratus, either ulcer of the r,om.

complications.
Indigestion. or dyspepsia, means
loss of appetite, GASEOUS eruc,a-
lions, reorganization. fear of eat

haps sense tina, all is not entire
ly well after a meal has been
taken.
Of course, these symptoms also
may be due To organic disease of
the same kind that causes stom-
ach-ache. In II series Of y 600 such
cases about 50 per cent of them
were found to be due to gallstoncs
or ulcer. Most of them, however
are functional and not infrcuucnt-
ly aggravated by apprehension.
The Digestive System
In spite of the name, there is
usually nothing very seriously
wrong with the process of dies.
ton. The digestive system. like
most parts of the body. is able to
do fairly good work in spite often
OF quite severe organic disabili-
ties. Thus, although many people
have gallstoncS. they still are able
to digest their food even if occa-
sionally they have attacks which
interrupt the food intake entirely.
The nervous patient who gets
the idea in his head that indigcs-
tion means that he is not ,livcstino
his food thereby simply makes the
condition worse. He has some dis
agreeable symptoms but digestion
goes on just the. same.
Among the most FREQUENT of the
disagreeable symptoms is gas
not pleasant, of course. but not
necessarily serious. There is al
ways some gas in the stomach rs
can be seen by X-ray. and some gas
in the intestines. Contrary to tho
general belief, this gas is not
caused by fermentation of food.

Burial Today

Detroit, May 2S-INS-Mourned
by grimy factory workers, immacu-
late industrialists. college students.
women. and small children, all Of
whom passed by his bier in deep
reverence and respect, Edsel Ford
was to be buried today.
Funeral services were to be at
2:30 p. M. in Christ Church Chapel
conducted by Rev. Frank W
Creighton. bishop of the Episcopal
Diocese of Michigan and the Rev.
Francis B. Dreamer, pastor of the
church.
Because OF the small chapel, only
the immediate family and close
associates could attend the final
rites Of the president OF the world $
most fabulous industrial empire.
As their final tribute. the hun
dreds OF thousands OF employees in
Ford plants through the world were
to lay down their tools at 2:30 D.
m. and observe a fiye-minute sill
ence.
In each OF the city's 3l9 schools
there was TO be one-minute sill
en"e sometime during the after
noon. One pupil in each school
was TO review the life OF the man
who was born TO wealth, but who
through his own efforts has left an
indelible mark on the nation.
City Offices we're closed at noon
The picture OF the high regard
in which Ford was held by rich
and poor alike was Enthusiastically
unfolded Thursday afternoon and
last night. as an endless line passed
by Ford's bier.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Ford viewed
the body OF their only son shortly
before noon and were still at the
chapel when Mrs Edsel Ford and
her four children arrived Prior
to their arrival more than 300 per-
sons had filed past the bier.
While the Fords were inside, the
chapel was closed 10 the public.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Ford
left. Mrs. Ford noticed the huge
numbers OF persons congregated
and directed that they be admitted.
In the long line that stretched
over a block. there were factory
workers in treir work clothes and
carrying lunch buckets mingled
with executives. lawyers, bankers.
doctors. and judges. In all over
$500 people paid their spects.
There was no showing. no jostl-
ing no loud talk or laughter. The
solemnity OF the occasion lowered
even over the children who have
been taught that Henry ann Edsel
Ford are the symbols OF the indus
trial might OF the city.

Anti-Strike
Bill May be
Touchdown
Republicans to
Eliminate More
Drastic Parts

Washington. May 2S-INS- A
strong movement gained Roadway
among Republicans today TO elm
mate several OF the more drastic
provisions OF the Smith Connolly
anti-strike bill when the contro-
versial measure reaches the House
floor next week.
The opposition has now reached
such. proportions that it is consid-
cred probable the legislation will
have most OF its teeth" pulled be-
fore final passage. with the fight
centering on protecting the Norris
EaGuardia anti-injunetion act which
the bill would partially suspend
for the duration.
Indications are that a majority
of the 209 Republicans will join
with Democrats opposed TO the
bill, in. an attempt TO rewrite the
measure on the floor. Some COP
members are even proposing that
the bill be returned TO the House
Military Affairs Committee for
public hearings.
These members contend that the
nine high government officials
who recently signed a ''roundrob-
in communication TO Speaker Ray
burn condemning the measure,
should be summoned before the
committee to explain how it
would interfere with the war eff
fort as they stated.
Those signing this communica-
ton included Secretary of War
Stimson, Secretary OF Navy Knox,
Secretary OF Labor Perkins, and
WPB Administrator Donald Mel
son.
Sponsored by Sen. Connolly (D)
Tex. and passed by the. Senate.
the bill originally gave the Pres
ident power TO seize war plants
where work stoppages exist, and
gave the War Labor Board legal
status and additional powers.
