CHINESE MILITARY GENIUS HOLDS LT Wu Pei-Fu Gaining Strength in Disturbed Territory Peking, June 10 (By Associated Press)—The grasp of Wu Pei-Fu on the disturbed situation in China ap- parently was stronger today than at any time since his defeat of Chang Tso-Lin, rebel supertuchun of Man- churia, at the gates of Peking first gave him prominence as a prospec- tive *strong man of China.” Dr. Sun Yat Sen opponent of the Pekjng government in whose behalf Wu has been exercising his admitted miliary genius, has fled from Canton, where the southern Chinese govern- ment he headed is overthrown and Chen Chiung-Ming who is favorable to Wu is in control. In the north, the leaders of Wu's army on the southern Manchurian frontier and the head of the forces of Chang Tso-Lin in that region have concluded a definite armistice, accord- ing to advices from Chinwang-Tao and already Chmng's Fengtien troops are withdrawing toward Mukden, just as Chang agreed they should under the former armistice he signed with Wu and later broke. The armi according to all available information here resulted from a meeting of the two commanders aboard a British vessel at Chinwang-Tao last Friday There is nothing at hand to indicate that it is entered into in anything but good faith on Chang's part. But if fighting is over or appar- ently over, in the north, Wu still faces a determined, and he has said, fanatic enemy in the south. Wu bellevés that Sun holds himself divinely appointed to reunite China and this belief finds support in the fact that Sun, at last reports an exile from his own capital and seeking safety aboard a gunboat in Canton river, still is determined to fight. Five boats, under Sun's leadership have shelled a part of Canton. The dispatches report the casualties as few becanse of the flight of many of the inhabitants. 120 Injured in Riot 7 At Chemnitz, Saturday Berlin, June 19.-—One hundred and twenty persons were injured, some geriously in a fight between members of a patriotic association and a par- ty of communists at Cheninitz on Saturday, according to newspaper re- ports.

I Discovered Baltimore, Md., June 19.—After three years of patient research, Dr. E. . McCollum, the famous biochemist of the School of Hygiene and Public Health of Johns Hopkins University, | 1ssisted by Miss Nina Simmonds and Dr. P. G. Shipley, has made another discovery of great importance to the comparatively new science of dietetics. The investigators have “captured” a hitherto unknown vitamine, which has been labeled vitamine D, the specific| purpose-of which is the protection of bone growth and the prevention of the disease known as rickets. Dr. McCollum referred to this dis- covery in an address at the convention of the Holstein-Friesian Association recently held in Kansas City, but it was not until today that he mude any- thing like a detailed announcement. In discussing the matter yesterday he said that during the last twelve years investigators had come to an agreement on the point that there were at least three vitamines, which has become known as vitamines A, B and C, “These,” he continued, “when lack- ing from the diet, cause the develop- ment of a type of eye disease known as ophthalmia.» A type of paralysis wnd scurvy, respectively. By this we mean that one vitamine is concerned with one of the specific deficiency lit. s0s. Recently my assistants and I have demonstrated the existence of a fourth vitamine, which is concerned with bone growth. The discovery was made in the course of an investigation of the cause’ of rickets, a disease characterized by faulty bone growth. TRjs investiga- tion has been in progress for abeut three years. Approximately 4,000 an- imals—rats—have been used as ex- perimental subjects in this work. Cause of Rickets, “It was found that the primary cause of rickets is a disturbance of the metabolism of calcium and of phosphorus, the principal elements concerned in the formation of the skeleton. When there is a disposition between those two elements, the cal- cium supply being inadequate and the phosphorus abundant, or the phos- phorus supply inadequate and the cal- cium abundant or excessive, the dis- | noticeab: eonard’s manager, and Phil manager, sign articles with Tex the world’s lightweight cham- y arena where Dempsey defeat- ease is likely to develop. Under these conditions the animals become de- formed in much the same manner as do children who suffer from this dis- ease. “Physicians have long believed that cod liver oil has a therapeutic value in the treatment of rickets, and in the studles referred to this oil was found to exert a decided protective action in preventing the onset of rickets when the dietary conditions were fav- orable for its occurrence. This fact was also noted by an English inves- tigator named Mellanby. “Mellanby suggested that the pro- tective action of certain fats in rickets was probably due to the presence in them of the vitamine A, which, as has been stated, is concerned with the causation of ophthalmia, an eye dis- ease of dietary origin. “We have destroyed the vitamine A by oxidation, and have made cod liver ofl inca~ “le of preventing the eye disease, ‘& without diminishing in a degree its value for the prevention or cure of rickets, and have thus shown that certain fats con- tain two vitamines, one related to the functioning of the nutritional pro- cesses of the eyes, the other con- cerned primarily with the regulation of calcium and phosphorus meta- bolism, as it affects the bones. “By selectively destroying one of these properties and retaining the other, it is proved that two dietary principles are operating in cod liver oil, rather than one such substance which haa two regulatory functions in the body.” SAVES CRAMPED S\\'.[.\I MER Long Branch Guard Rescues Man In Rough Sca Long Beach, L. 1., June 19.—After a struggle lasting 15 minutes, James McDonald, 30 years old, was rescued from the ocean yesterday afternoon by Life Guard Albert Resse. McDon- ald was unconscious, but was revived and later went home. McDonald was about 200 yards off shore when he was seized with a cramp. He shouted for help and Resge responded. The waves were high and when the life guard reached McDonald the latter was exhausted. Resse had to fight the man off. Hun- dreds of persons saw the struggle and two catamarans went out but could do nothing. Slowly Resse managed to get McDonald towards shore and was successful when McDonald be- came unconscious. Names were obtained to record Resse's act for a congressional medal. A classified ad in The Herald reaches a large number of people.
