Gold Used To Relieve Rheumatism CHICAGO, Dec. 27, (U.P) -Aged gentlemen with gold fn their pockets and rheumatism in knees may hereafter, with the of their, physician, transfer some of the gold to their knees and rid themselves of the rheumatism. The journal of the American Medical Association reported today experiments with several hundred cases of rheumatism have shown a definite improvement after injections of, solutions of a gold- bearing content. "The value of the metal has always conferred upon it possibilities for symbolic and suggestive therapy," the journal said. "Recently, however, gold has been used seriously and extensively." Reporting interest in gold therapy to be particularly high in continental and British journals, the publication cited one experimenter who feels that gold salts in oil suspension, given by the intramuscular route, are the most satisfactory treatment.

"The first sign of improvement, he says, was relief from pain, and the patient was able to perform movements impossible, before treatment," the journal reported. "The second sign was reduction of swelling and its eventual disappearance. There was also improvement in the general health, appetite and weight." Despite number of favorable results, however, the journal editorial said that the precise way in which the gold acts is unknown. It added that gold is known to have some toxic effects.

NO. 47. ONLY 5 STATES MISS FREEZING TEMPERATURES Cold Wave Spreads To South and Threatens Valuable A Citrus Crops DEATH TOLL MAY EXTEND BEYOND Many Children Have First Experience With Skates; 22 Below in N. Dakota (By United Press) Gales from Canada and the blizzard stricken west brought the lowest temperatures of the year to virtually all the United States today. The death and property toll was almost inestimable.

Only five states escaped freezing temperatures. The thermometer fell below or close to zero in nearly twothirds of the country. The multimillion dollar citrus crop of Central Florida was threatened and all through the south temperature records of 40 years standing were shattered. Government weather forecasters expected temperatures to rise slightly today on the Great Plains, where they fell yesterday bout low as 22 degrees below zero, east of the Mississippi the mercury still was falling. Snow flurries were predicted in almost every midwestern and eastern state, and as south as Tennessee, to augment traffic hazards and human hardships that have taken approximately 150 lives since Christmas Eve.

The rare extent and severity of the cold was dramatized by deaths of two persons in North Carolina, one in Tennessee and one in New Orleans by freezing. The temperature in Raleigh, N. was 13. Thousands of men worked despairingly through the night in Central Florida orchards to save rich crops from frost. Freezing temperatures extended even into the everglades.

Smudge pots in hundreds kept palls of smoke drifting through orchards but horticulurists feared material damage was inevitable. The Tennessee River froze solidly at Knoxville, a phenomenon unrecorded since 1895, and an expected 6 above at Atlanta was the lowest temperature in three years. Children of the deep south made a merry event of the first experience of many of them with ice skates and sleds. Ten degrees above zero in New York, 4-minus in Pittsburgh, 7 in Buffalo, 9 in Philadelphia, and 7 in Baltimore brought suffering to thousands of families. Demands on relief agencies for coal, fuel oil and heavy clothing leaped overnight.

While the temperature fell a west wind grew to 40 miles an hour and snow fell again on New York streets just cleared of a previous fall by 13,000 men. The midwest gained surcease from the blizzard that disrupted its Christmas traffic, but temperature remained near yesterday's low levels. Chicago, where a low of 2 below zero was recorded Wednesday, expected 5 below today. Official readings set night temperatures in Minneapolis and St. Paul at' 12-minus, Milwaukee 2-minus, Indianapolis 6, Cleveland zero and St.

Louis 2. The far west shared the cold but with less intensity. Typical western thermometer readings were 20 at Denver, 22 at Helena, 18 at Salt Lake City, and 48 at Seattle and San Francisco. North Dakota still was the country's coldest sector, with 22 below zero recorded at Devil's Lake (Continued on Page Nine) MRS.

Methyl alcohol in illegal liquor caused the deaths of Charles Gruenberg, 39, and Stehen Swankoskie, 41, both of Shamokin, who died over the past week-end during a party which came to a tragic ending tourists' camp near Milton. That was the report received late yesterday afternoon by Dr. A. J. An-' cerawicz of Kulpmont, land County coroner, from Platt of Reading, a chemist, who completed an analysis of the victims' vital organs.

The coroner said that the chemist, o'clock who about telephoned his findings, him at declared he had discovered evidence of the methyl alcohol in all of the man's organs including the stomachs, kidneys and livers. Methyl alcohol, also known as wood alcohol, proves particularly deadly, it was stated, when taken in sufficient quantity.

SPEEDING CAUSE OF MOST AUTO ACCIDENTS HARRISBURG, Dec. 27. (U.P.)-An analysis of the five principal causes of automobile accidents resulting in death and injury to motorists during the first 10 months of 1935 showed excessive speed at the top, Secretary of Revenue Harry E. Kalodner reported today. Operators who drive at excessive speed caused 44 per cent of all the accidents attributed to specific violations of the motor code, he said.

Other causes listed in the order of accidents resulting were: Driving on the wrong side of the highway; forcing another vehicle off the highway; failing to stop at through streets; and driving while intoxicated. Speeding drivers caused the deaths of 358 persons and injury to 10,816 during the 10 month period. Cars operated on the wrong side of the road figured in 4,759 accidents. Vehicles forced off the highway caused injury to 1,957 persons and death for 44. Failure to stop ati through highways resulted in in-1 jury to 1,809, of which 30 were fatal.

Although fewer accidents were attributed to intoxicated drivers during the 10-month period than to any other of the principal causes, larger percentage of accidents in which drunken drivers participated resulted fatally. Cars operated by intoxicated persons were involved in accidents killing 56 persons and injuring 1,505 others. WeatherFair and colder tonight; Saturday, warmer, followed by snow at night.

COMMUNICATION ROAD CAPTURED ETHIOPIANS Several Italian Positions Reported Seized by Raiding Warriors ADDIS ABABA, Dec. 27, (U.P)Raiding Ethiopian warriors have cut the road which runs westward from Makale to the Tembien area on the northern frontier, and captured a series of Italian positions and 11 machine guns, an official communique said today.

The positions captured were selected by the Italians for defense of the road. They were captured yesterday, the communique said. It then indicated that the road which Ethiopians claimed was one running northwestward out Makale, according to Italian military maps, into the Tembien area. Severance of Italian communications on this road would be of considerable importance because leads into an area which the Italians seek to consolidate as part of their territory. The Tembien regions seems to be full of bands of Ras Siyoum's tough warriors.

It they who have participated in recent engagements in the Makale area and far behind Makale on the main line of Italian communication to bases in the rear. There was speculation here whether the Ethiopians intended to try to hold their captured positions an attempt to cut the MakaleTembien road permanently. It was thought more likely that they would continue their strategy of quick attacking at various points along the road, hoping to demoralize Italian com: runications. This seemed par-: ticularly likely as the Ethiopians probably would be unable to hold the position long, and would be abandoning their greatest, assetthe initiative for attack on isolated outposts.

"It was necessary to calm the atmosphere between Britain and ItLaval said. "I did everything to avoid dragging my country into war."

The Soviet minister, Alejandro Minkin, and his entire staff were ordered expelled from the country. Uruguay also will withdraw its representatives from Moscow. Decision to break relations and hand the minister his passports was reached at a midday meeting of the Uruguayan council of ministers was announced officially by Foreign Minister Jose Espalter.

Montevidio long has been regarded as the center of communistic activity in South America, and the breaking of relations followed development of evidence which the government asserted directly connected Soviety embassy here with the recent bloody revolutionary outbreak in Rio de Janiero and other parts of Brazil. For some time, newspapers here had been making indirect accusations that the Soviet legation here was actively assisting communistic activities in South America, particularly in Brazil and Chile. The radical leader, Luis Prestes, allegedly was being financed by the Communist International, it was charged. Following the abortive outbreak in Brazil, in which many were killed, the charges were brought into the open by the press and by Deputy Angel Cusano in speech in parliament. The government thereupon instituted a secret investigation which culminated in today's drastic action.

Uruguay recognized the Soviet government in 1929. was not until May 3, 1934, however, that Soviet representation was established here, with Minkin in charge of the legation. MISS CLARA ANTHONY TAKES POST GRADUATE COURSE IN NURSING Miss Clara Anthony, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harold L.
