How to Re-set Stomach
Air Travelers7 Problem
(Editor's Note: UPI Wom
en's Edilor Gay Pauley has
gone lo lhe other side of the
world to see what it's like, es

. Tokyo-JUPD-The big prob
lem of air travel on a long
hop is one, not of re-setting
the clock, but of re-setting the
stomach.
Only thing is, there's not
much either the airlines or a
creature conditioned to the
breakfast-then-lunch-then din
ner routine can do about it,
and it probably will get
worse for all of us tourists
with the jet ' age when we
cross time zones even faster.
On a flight from New York
to Tokyo, my appetite's at
tempts at readjustment began
"shortly after I boarded a
flight in time for lunch and
ended when I landed in
Tokyo, also in time for lunch.
This is half-way around
the world, and in my case
two inches mora around the
.waistline because flying west
seems always to be flight into
the dinner hour, and dinners
aboard a Japan Air Lines J.
A. L. flight hardly are for the
dieting set
Eats Two Dinners
En route to San Francisco,
I ate lunch very early, a seven-course
dinner over Salt
Lake City and arrived in San
Francisco in what my stom
ach said was time for a mid
night snack. But it was just
dinner-time for San Francisco
so I joined friends for another
meal. An overnight stop
helped a little toward read
justment because somehow

proof it pays to buy quality dry cleaning
If you could examine carefully these identical
twin" suits, you'd find no difference in color, pat
tern or texture . . . none in the feel of the fabric ...
none in fit or drape. What stronger proof could you
ask that quality dry cleaning does not alter the con
dition or appearance of fabric.
And if you could wear the Sanitone Dry Cleaned
suit, you'd find that it stubbornly resists wrinkling
. . . holds its press amazingly. That's because our
Sanitone Dry Cleaning renews the fabric's original

stores both the look and feel of newness. Try it

the tummy was ready for
breakfast the next morning
with the rest of San Fran
cisco. But the confusion began
anew when I boarded J. A. L.
for the Orient. Because, we
weren't too far out over the
Pacific until it was dinner
time, with champagne and all
the trimmings.
Eight hours later, with a
snack in between, it was time
for breakfast, the stomach
said. But by this time we
were in Honolulu, and if was
dinner time there. After a
stop to pick up Hawaiian pas
sengers, we ate dinner aboard
again-shrimp, squab, cham
pagne and all trimmings.
Some eight hours later, we
landed at Wake Island to re
fuel. The stomach kept say
ing it's time for breakfast,
but airborne again - we ate
dinner - steak and potatoes.
Some seven hours later, just
before landing in Tokyo, it
was snacktime-the stomach
said a snack before retiring,
the clock said for mid-morning.
Lunch in Tokyo
We landed in Tokyo at
noon . . . just in time for
friends to take me to lunch.
My last breakfast had been
in San Francisco, but at least
I hadn't gone hungry. I had
lost one whole day, however
by crossing the Internation
al Dateline in the Pacific. It
was Sunday in Tokyo, but
Saturday with football games
and grocery marketing in
New York and Dallas and
South Bend and New Haven.
The mind says measure
ment of time is relative. But
try telling that to the travel
er's stomach.
Incidentally, I'll get back
my lost day because I go
home the same flight route I
came. But the question now
is will i always be eating
breakfast instead of dinner?
It'll help the fit of my clothes.
Some of the passengers on
my flight complained they'd
never recover that day, be
cause they go from Tokyo
home through India, the Mid
dle East, Europe and the
Transatlantic route. They
don't recross the Internation
al Dateline.

could have been playing

"We don't talk about it too
much," said Betty Barnes,
"eople somehow win( up
with an idea of a couple of
women toiling in the fertil
izer business. It's really noth
ing like that at all."
Miss Barnes' partner is
Martha Parks. The two wo
men came up with a mixture
of ground charcoal, redwood
leaf mold, peat moss and five
"other ingredients," called
"Black Magic." .
The ladies first made the
mixture on a canvas spread on
the living room floor. They
distributed the mix in a pick
up truck-"rented of course."
Now they have a large, mod
ern plant near Los Angeles.
The venture began when
they met on a double date 10
years ago. Intrigued by the
facts that charcoal is very ab
sorbent and that soil inside
most modern decorative con
tainers doesn't support plant
life too well, they began their
own research. After much
reading and experimenting on
the living room canvas they
found the product they had
been hunting for. It absorbed
the plant's poisonous wastes,
something which soil in most
planters cannot do for very
long. ' .
"We knew there was a need
for this sort of thing," Miss
Parks said. I guess that any
thing which will grow in earth
will grow in our mixture." ,
The women still are good
friends. They have a formula
for their successful, partner
ship,' a business which attor
neys say usually has many
weaknesses.
"We always make decisions
jointly," Miss Barnes said. "If
something comes up on which
we disagree, we put it aside
for a while, then try again.
Usually it's solved with no
difficulty. I suppose that if
there's any division of duty,
I handle people, and Martha
handles sales."
The women, unlike male
business tycoons, worry con
stantly about their employees
and their community. They're
active in many civic groups
including garden clubs.
Miss Parks' has held jobs as
supervisor in charge of grad
ing walnuts and a part in a
picture starring Rita Hay
worth ("Girls Will Play").
They wanted someone who
looked wholesome and had a
way with animals for one pic
ture," she said. "It was a mem
orable experience, trying out
for the part. I. had to romp
with a young leopard to prove
I was qualified."
Miss Barne's jobs ranged
from hiring pilots and subbing
for a nurse to running an
elevator,
"We each have our own
houses," Miss Barnes - said.
"Lots of plants in our mix
ture, of course. I, however,
have cats."
"And I," said Miss Parks
"have dogs.

Decision Tabled '
By Interim Group
Portland - (UPD - The State
Legislative Tax Interim Com
mittee decided in a meeting
here Sunday to put off a de
cision on whether to recom
mend abolition of the ad
valorem tax on personal prop
erty. ;
After a one hour debate the
committee agreed "to let the
matter go before the 1959 Leg
islature and further study by
any interim committee it may
appoint to study taxes.
Senator Phil Lowry (R-Med-ford)
proposed that the com
mittee call for abolition of the
tax as unsound and inequit
able. Rep. Clarence Barton (D
Coquille) suggested a counter
proposal to the effect that the
group had not had enough
time to adequately consider
abolition and that no thought
had been given . as to what
other income would replace
the tax.
The committee voted to go
along with Barton and leave
it in the hands of the Legis
lature. The committee said it would
"suggest" but not "recom
mend" three possible ways of
getting more tax revenue to
the 1959 Legislature.
One would eliminate the
deduction for federal income
tax paid; another would elim
inate personal exemptions and
substitute dollar tax credits
after income tax is computed
and a third would' require
self-employed persons to file
estimates of income and pay
the tax quarterly. ' ,
State Sen. Walter J. Pear
son and Barton predicted the
1959-61 general fund budget
would be $300 to $305 million,
compared to the previous
budget of $272 million.
