SOFT COAL MINERS GOING BACK M0NDA'
BARTLETT GIVES
 HIS VIEWS ABOUT
 INT. AppR0. BILL
Several Agencies to Gel More ihan Usual h.
 terest in North

WASHINGTON, May II. = Al though expressing disappointment over certain committee changes Delegate Bartlett of Alaska thinks the new Interior Department ap- propriation bill is highly encourage ing when compared with appro- priations for the current and past fiscal years.
 Bartlett said in a statement that the bill, now before the House reflects decided interest in All aska on the part of Committed members.
 He said the Fish and Wildlife Service will have approximately s200,0C0 more available for Alaska fisheries and for game enforcement with total of S994. PAS.
 The Alaska Native Service, he continued, would get S833,000 more than it had this year and the All aska Road Commission have S600,- 900 more than for the current year
 Bartlett said he did not agree with the proposal that Alaska should put up 25 percent of the cost of road surveys and new con struction.
 T am hopeful that either on the floor of the House or in the Sen ate some very badly needed in- creases in the bill will be allowed, Bartlett said "As it now stands the bill will provide for the expenditure in the Territory by the Interior Department of $7,827.828 for the l947 fiscal year compared with s5,- 936,745 for the current year.
 He said that while he. was corr svinced that the entire amount ask red for Alaska road construction should have been allowed the com- mittee authorized start of the road from Renal Lake to Homer and a road to connect the Alaska High way with the 40-Mile District which were needed.

VI ROCKET UP 75 MILES
 RECORD TEST
Captured German Equip menf Being Tried Out
 by Ordnance Experts

WHITE SANDS, N. M, May H. A spectacular attempt to destroy ore German V-2 rocket with an- other in midair was mapped by Army Ordnance experts today in a search for a means of defense against atomic age long range guided missiles.
 The radar guided proximity fuse will be used to direct one of the giant rockets against the other, an cfiicial said, in the current series ol tests at the White Sands prov ing ground.
 The tests were begun yesterday when a reassembled V-2 roared to height estimated at 75 miles. Off, fioials said this was an American record for an ascent by a man. made instrument, although possibly exceeded in recorded wartime tests by the Nazis. In cross-channel bombardment of London, however, v-2s mostly rose no higher than 50 or 60 miles
 The American developed VT proximity fuse played an important role in the 1944-45 Battle of the Bulge in detonating shells which exploded when reflected radio beam located their target von Rundstedt's attacking Nazis.
 Twenty-four additional V-2s re- assembled from captured German equipment will be fired at intervals of about week in efforts to learn all possible about the Nazi weapon preparatory to developing larger and lcnger-range American missiles. Officials said 1t was entirely poss- ible that one or more of these would reach an altitude of some 120 miles, the extreme vertical range credited to the V-2.

BRITISH LOAN
 GOES BEFORE ORE
 HOUSE NOW
Administration Enlourdg. ed Over Passage by
 Senate by 46-34

WASHINGTON, May 1.--Half it's battle won, the British loan will move over to the House today, facing another hard struggle with its ulti- mate fate very much in doubt.
 Administration forces, however, see much encouragement from the way the measure emerged victorious from the Senate by a 46-34 vote yesterday after a month of bitter debate
 Britain's Prime Minister Attlee was represented as highly grati- fled" over the Senate's approval of the $3.75O,OO0 900 loan.
 But the House battle on the credit is still to come. and Chairman Spence D.-Ky) of the Banking Committee cleared the way for the opening skirmishes by scheduling the start of public hearings before his group on Tuesday. These are expected to take about two weeks.

KoL0T0V IN CLASH AGAIN WITH BYRNES
Four-Power Conference Is Split Over Repdrd-
 lions from Italy

] PARIS, May 11.-U. s. Secretary of State James F. Byrnes accepted today the Soviet Unions demand fer sl00,000,000 in reparations from Italy, but added conditions which led to a clash with Soveit Foreign Minister Vyacheslav M Molotov.
 This was reported by an American source.
 Almost the entire two-hour in formal meeting of the Four-P Power conference was devoted to the re- parations issue as the ministers continued their preview of disputed points in Italian peace treaty pro- posals in efforts to narrow down the area of disagreement.
 Byrnes, accepting the Russian re- parations demand. was reported by the American source to have said these must be obtained only from
 l. Italian assets abroad. ?. Excess industrial equipment in former munitions factories.
 3. Merchant shipping.
 4. Naval vessels.
 Molotov promptly disputed the last point. He said naval vessels were legitimate booty of war and should be apportioned among the victorious powers as such. and not as reparations.
 Byrnes retorted that booty could be claimeds only by those who had captured it, and the Russians had captured no Italian naval vessels

 All the meat and most of the fresh garden foods destined for Ko- diak remained aboard as the Lakina sailed. It's officers said the ship would call at cannery ports and at tempt to discharge the remainder of the cargo here later.

Lewis, AFL United Mine Workers Presi- dent, and accepted by the bitumin- ous operators.
 As Lewis and the operators pre- 0ersd to begin a fresh series of negotiation conferences. they car ried with them request by Pres:- dent Truman to work out an agree ment on new contract within the next four or five days.
 Federal officials expressed hope that a permanent settlement of the country's major labor dispute would be effected within the time asked by MT. Truman. But the govern ment pparently was not ready to relax major emergency regulations which were imposed because of the st-dwindling supplies of coal.
 With the miners back in the pits until May 25. when the truce .sx- pires. an estimated 25.000sa00 tons of coal could be produced. The Solid Fuels Administration said dis tiioution twill remain under it's control
 There was no immediate order for relaxation. .of the freiGht embargo to release I How Of goods. Likewise. the Civilian Production Administration did not revoke or ders for brownouts and illuminat- ing gas rationing until This pie ture is lot clearer" A spokes- man for the agency said.

By HERMAN n! BUNDESEN, MD.

THERE is such IN intimate
connection between the nervous
system and the digestive appara-
tus that we truthfully say a good
digestion depends as much on
sound nerves as it does on
healthy stomach. For this reason
the causes Of indigestion are al
most as numerous rs the people
who are afflicted with it, for, Just
rs no two sets of fingcrprints
are exactly alike, so, no two ner-
vous systems respond in an iden-
teal manner to the various stimuli
Of everyday life.
Thus, certain ncrvously irritable
people have indigestion because
they cat while engaging in some
argument, while tense or fatigued,
while still upset over some annoy
ancc of an hour or so earlier or
because they eat too fast.
Eat Alone
In fact, there are some pcoplc
who seem to digest their food
we'll only if they eat while alone.
Even the company of one or two
other people puts them into such
emotional tension that the diges-
tive organs cannot function prop
erly.
Other sensitive people are up-
set if their food is served in m ~,
attractive way or in unpleasant or
dirty surroundings.
Even the mere suspicion that the
food they have eaten was spoiled
or likely to disagree with them
is enough to bring on full-fledged
digestive upset, with vomiting and
perhaps diarrhca.
