The quick corrective is an alkali which will neutralize acid. The best corrective is Phillips Milk of Magnesia. It has remained standard with physicians in the 50 years since its invention. One spoonful of Phillips Milk of Mag nesia neutralizes instantly many times its volume in acid. It is harmless and tasteless and its action is quick. You will never rely on crude methods once you learn how quickly this method acts. Please let it show you now. Be sure to get the genuine. "Milk of Magnesia" has been the U. S.

Mo., Thursday, unlock a new Pan dora's box of crimeland secrets? Chicago wondered Thursday night as a detective squad sped southward to claim him for this city arrest him for a part in the St. Valentine day massacre, most spectacular page in Chicago's black record of gang land. For though he was named by a coroners jury as one of the killers. Chicago was confident that back of him lay some greater, more sinister force, such as "Al" Capone, long :;i enemy of the "Bugs" Moran gang, seven of whose members were mow ed in the machine-gun slaying. Or the north side Genua brothers, act ing to place an expiring seal of ter ror over the near north side. The new car found at Burke': farm hideout was traced Thursdav night and brought what author) lien regarded as new evidence that Bu r k still had Capone ties. It was purchased from a garage next door to Ralph Capone's Cotton club by a man answering the de scription of Ted Newberry, the gangster who deserted "Bugs' Moran for a more profitable connection with Capone. If Burke talks . . . officers are confident they can lay bare gangland secrets that hitherto not even the most drastic measures have uncov ered. If he reveals the links in his tangled history, they believe a new blow may be struck at gang ramifi cations. Mrs. Fred H. Burke, wife of the notorious gunman, was arrested in Kansas City Thursday night. Police questioned her in an effort to de termine what she knew of Burke'0 criminal career. A trival traffic dispute resulted in the overnight transposition of Burke from the estate of a wealthy, respect ed resident In St. Joseph. Mich., to that of the most widely-sought and' highest-priced criminal in recent history of the United States. Re wards totalling $101,000 are on his head. Burke, under the alias of Fro Dane, had purchased a palatial hom near S'. Joheph late In the summet of 1929. On the evening of Dec. 14 he went to mee his common-law wife, Viola Brenneman. In a traf- j fic dispute, Charles Skeyyq, 24-year- ! old traffic officer, leaped to the run- nine board of Burke's car to arrest him. Slays Policeman Without warning the gunman drew a revolver and fired three slugs int the noliceman's body. Skellv fell ti I the pavement, dead. Burke sped away through the gathering crowd, smash ed his car against a pole, comman deered another and then another un til he reached Paw Paw, Mich., where the trail was lost. Detectives found In the Burke home a concealed arsenal and $319, 850 in bonds stolen from the Far mers and Merchants bank of Jeffer son. Wis. Another squad took Violr. Brenneman into custody. She broko down and confessed Fred Dane was Fred R. Burke. Identify Death Bullets While indignant Berrien county citizens and the Insurance company that held a policy on the slain po liceman's life posted rewards total ling $75,000. two machine guns, the heavy pieces of the seized arsenal, were rushed to Chicago. Maj. Calvin Goddard. firearms ex pert working in co-operation with the Chicago and New York police de partments, made tests and secretly revealed his findings to authorities of both cities. Commissioner Grover Whalen or New York announced one of the ma chine guns had been used in the slaying of Frankie Uale and that Burke, when arrested, would be ques tioned for possible complicity In the one-way ride of Frank Marlowe. Valentine Day Massacre. A coroner's jury in Chicago, bas ing its verdict on the same evidence, named Burke as one of the assassins who executed seven members of tho "Bugs" Moran gang in a North Clark street garage on Feb. 14, 1929, seven mouths after the Uale killing. Results of the ballistics tests were forwarded to Detroit and although they failed to aid police there in connecting Burke with the slaugh ter in March, 1927, of three gang sters Frank Wright, Joseph Bloom and Ruben Cohen, he continued to be suspected of the crime. Meanwhile reports picturing Burke as one of the most dangerous felons In crime annals were issued from three widely-separated cities and sev eral other communities demanded his detention for grilling as a possible participant in bank robberies. PAROLE PACTS ABE GIVEN Springfield, 111. W. C. Jones, chairman of the Illinois board of par dons and paroles, has promised the legislative committee investigating Illinois prisons a digest of parole ac tion taken in every convict's case in any of the state's penal institutions.

PAT MARK BEC0VERS mil: Kansas to Raise Tax on Trucks and Motorbuses Ra:lway Employees Join w the Circulating of Petitions for Strict Control Topeka, Kan. More strict and rigid truck and bus supervision and increases in the tax on carriera in Kansas will result from the passage of bills recently signed by Gov. Harrv H. Woodring. The principal provis ions of the measures concern a tax for the maintenance of the high ways. More than 50,000 Kansans signed petitions to the Legislature urging higher taxes and fees from trucks and buses for the use of highways. for trucks, under certain restrictions. Each vehicle is to be equipped with lights fore and aft, two separte sets of brakes and a mirror. There is at present no speed limit on Kansas highways. The adopteu bill provides that trucks weighing more than 7000 pounds shall not ex ceed 30 miles an hour, and that buses holding "certificates of convenience and necessity of licenses from the public service commission may oper ate at a rate of speed which is reason able and is with proper regard for the traffic and use of the road ant! the conditions of the road, and is in conformity with the city ordinance of any city where operated, but in no case greater than 40 miles per hour."

Railroads without bus lines feel the motor outfits should pay more taxes, while the two big railroads which a'so own DUS subsidiaries do not want the taxes raised to a point where their bus lines will be unpro fitable. As a result there were two groups of railroad lobbyist. Some of the petitioners wanted to bar trucks and buses from the high ways altogether, while others wanted them to run only at night. As signed by the Governor, the bill requires j moval of the state historical societv library to ne.v quarters in the capi tol.
