Yet Turns contain no bicarbonate of soda or other water soluble alkalies to over-alkalize or cause acid rebound. That's why millions always carry Turns in pocket or purse--for top-speed relief from eassy fullness and pressure pains.

Garage Apartment Damaged by Fire Af Tolley's Home Two rooms in the chauffeur's apartment over the three-car garage at the home of Chancellor and Mrs. William P. Tolley, 701 Walnut were damaged by fire last night.

Mrs. Tolley said the fire apparently originated in the laundry room. It was caused, she believed, by combustion, or possibly a small explosion of some cleaning wax. Only two rooms in the five-room apartment were damaged, and much of the loss will be from smoke and water. Damage was unestimated.

The chauffeur's apartment is occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Edward Best. They were watching television when the fire broke out. They heard a crackling and opening the laundry room door, found the room in flames.

Mr. Best notified Mrs. Tolley and firemen were called. They remained at the scene about an hour. MEAT ON ICE Is the new way to sell "fresher.

Sargent, health commissioner, gave the district attorney the information after Cantor called at his office on request of the grand jury to find out what zl- 'ect housing has had on east side rime. District Attorney Cantor was told poor sanitation has a direct bearing on increased juvenile delinquency and mortality rates. Dr. Sargent told the district attorney his department is doing everything possible to get owners of property in the area to improve it. He said had stopped owners from making more apartments in buildings that did not have adequate facilities to care for additional persons.

Recent upsurge of crime in the area is reported to have prompted the grand jury to question its relationship to living conditions.
