Gas Distress Mainly Due To Air That Is Swallowed

| By DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS Times Special Writer

The sensation of excess gas is one of the most frequent complaints

people make and often one of the most elusive.

This symptom is

used to describe belching, abdominal distention, a sense of fullness in the abdomen, a localized sensation of pressure, as if gas might be confined in a portion of the bowel, or passing through the bowel

-of an excessive quantity of gas. understood to imply “indigestion,” although they may all be present without sny real indigestion. Ac- : tually, most of i the gas present in the bowel is not formed } there, but is air or the residue

Everyone swal-

in with food, as well as free air. With each swal-

of the air remains in ‘the stomwhere there is always a bubble demonstrable by means of the X-ray. Most of the swallowed air passes into the bowel. The oxygen and carbon-dioxide of the air are absorbed through the wall of the bowel into the blood. The nitrogen in the air is not so readily absorbed, and it is this gas that is found in the . colon. The small bowel does not normally contain any significant amount of gas, because it absorbs’

‘tents into the colon rapidly.

Air-Swallewing Phase

The belching results from an over-distended stomach, releasing the bubble of air as the circular

esophagus and stomach relaxes. belch. Repeated belching can ocwith the repeated swallowing of

air. Many people swallow air and belch in one continuous act, with-

Generally, these symptoms are

lowing phase. This performance

may be a habit, or it may be an effort to influence an unpleasant sensation in the upper mid-abdo-men, which may be due to abnor--mal motility in the stomach, irregularities in the heart action, or disease in the gall-bladder. A sense of bloating without abdominal distention is not due to gas, because gas in the bowel has the same effect that it does in a balloon—i. e., it occupies space. The sensation may arise from spasm of the .bowel, or distention of the abdominal vessels with blood.

Treatment and Cause Gas may’ be found in the colon

«by fermentation. A diet that con-

tains more coarse, bulky, and carbohydrate foods will result in excessive gas formation with many people. Cabbage, cucumbers, beans, peanuts and rich or fatty foods are notorious examples. Over-eating alone may so burden the bowel that some food is carried into the colon, where

.it decomposes with the liberation

of gas. Constipation is a fre‘quent cause of flatulence and the ‘use of laxatives usually aggra.vates the condition. The treatment of this symptom obviously depends on its cause. It is necessary todifferentiate be-

tween the actual presence of gas

and the sensation that is interpreted as flatulence.

Resulting from constipation, the condition can be relieved by a soft diet and the. use of enemas until the constipation is corrected. It may mean treatment of a failing heart or the surgical removal of a diseased gall bladder. Belching can be stopped by simply ceasing to swallow air.

Congressional Experts Hope To Simplify Entire

Payment System.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12 (U. PJ). —Congressional tax experts today were preparing a bill to simplify the entire federal tax structure both in administration and the amount of reporting required of taxpayers. The bill will be introduced in congress in January. It will be devoted entirely to simplification measures

Congressional tax experts have been working on the measure for two years and believe that they have found ways cf simplifying the tax structure so that in addition to] eliminating much work at the internal revenue. bureau, the bureau will be relieved of the necessity of making many of the rulings now re-

One of the aims will be to do away with the filing of tax returns by all persons whose taxes are fully paid by the wage and salary withholdings. Efforts also will be directed to ward providing a simple return th be used by individuals who will still be required to file them. Another aim will be to give corporations and other business organizations a big relief from the amount of tax accounting required under present laws. Congressional leaders said the bill would be the subject of extensive hearings before the house ways and means committee. They put their tax experts to work on the problem two years ago when they felt that tax laws and compliance with them was already far too complicated.

STRAUSS SAYS:

They'll Be Issued d Sunday;

FDR May Call for Labor Draft.

WASHINGTON, Aug.'12 (U.P) —|B

The administration is prepared, when it considers the time ripe, to ask for national service legislation, but the war manpower commission, meanwhile, is going to make another attempt to solve the manpower problem without legislation.

The WMO will announce on Sun-|o

day a revamped program which already has been discussed with regional commission officials at meet- |; ings here. . Reliable sources said President Roosevelt may ask. congress, when it reconvenes next month, to pass a labor draft measure, using the Wadsworth-Austin bill as a basis. It was learned early in July, and published then, that the president had decided legislation might be required to handle a manpower program still beset by problems other than procurement. The most bothersome problem, it was said, is labor turnover, which has not been réduced despite regulatory measures promulgated by War Manpower Chief Paul V., McNutt. The major point of McNutt’s revamped program, it was said, will be an enlargement of the list of socalled “non-deferrable” jobs. Draft age men holding such jobs would be denied deferments unless they shift to war industries.
