10 BE CURTALED New Yorkers Getting Tired ol Street Shootings New York, July 11 (A—Recent gang murders in New York streets toduy bad brought demands from two sources for action by the city | | Astor 1ast |spiirt of femininity would continue administration to break up the gang warfare. District Attorney McGeehan of the Broux called upon the police to drive the gangsters out of his bor- | ough. promising the full co-opera- tion of his office and a pledge from | the Bronx county grand jury to back up the policé in an offensive against organized crime. J W. J. L. Baham, president of the New York board of trade and trans- | portation, wrote to Mayor Walker on behalf of his organization pro- testing against the failure of the po- lice to prevent gangsters from using | the public streets as battlegrounds. “Will it be necessary for the citi- gens of New York to organize and raise & huge sum of money. as was done in Chicago. to restore law and order?” Mr. Banham asked in letter. Meanwhile, the police apparently had made no progress in their ef- forts to solve the murder of Frankie Uale, Brooklyn gang leader, or Ben- jamin Kanowitz, liquor racketeer of Manhattan, who was killed by a bomb attached to the starter of his | automobile. Periani Free Giuseppe Periani, called the “Clutching Hand"” because his left hand is twisted as the result of a knife wound, was released last night after police had failed to obtain any information from him as to the iden tity of Uale's slayers. Periani, an associate of the slain leader, is be- lieved by police to know who killed Tale and why. but like other of the gangster's lieutenants prefers to seek revenge in his own way with- out recourse to the law. The police were forced to release the “Clutch- ing Hand” when the burglary charge on which he had been held while they questioned him was dismissed for lack of evidence. A 22 year old woman, Celia Metz- | ler, now under federal indictment as the alleged head of a wholesale nar- eotic ring, was brought into ime Kanowitz and Uale cases yesterday. It was learned that she was the for- mer wife of Kanowitz and when he refused to furnish bail for her in the federal case an appeal was made to Uale who was attempt ing to aid her at the time of his death. Her smuggling business was #aid to have been carried on under | Uale's protection. Suffering from ' psychic paralysis, which physicians say was caused by her arrest, she was question:d by police as to the activities of the two men. They asked her if she knew that Kanowitz had been threalsned with death if he did not furnish bail for her. Smiling in amusement from her wheel chair she parried the questions of the police.

Wis., July 11 (P—Good | health is so general at the summer White House that President Coolidge has turned his physician over to the | treatment and care of the Cedar Is- land lodge trout. The fish in the famous hatcheries on the lodge estate developed a| strange goitre-like ailment that de-| formed them and sapped their vital- | ity. The hatchery attendants were| helpless as the growths swelled on the trouts' nec! 1t remained for| Col. James I°. Coupal, White House physician, to diagnose and cure the evil. | Col. Coupal noticed that the small one of the vats in which fish of various sizes are segregated the hatchery, had apparently hardly enough energy to move to get | their food. This had to be brought to their mouths for them to feed | themselves. The distracted attend-| ants also showed him the bigger| fish in other vats with the swellings | on their bodies. fodine Cures 'Em Nothing had seemed to help the| fish. but Col. Coupal remembered | about the thyroid gland, and how| this would swell {f the body of which | it formed a part had to live in pol- luted surroundings. | He came to the conclusion that| the goitres in the trout were due to the fish living in such crowded quar- ters that the water became slightdy poisoned. To counteract this the| trouts’ thyroid glands were obliged | to work overtime to produce enough | iodine compound in their organisms | to enable them to live. | Col. Coupal dropped three drops of iodine solution into the vats con- taining the small fish and within five | minutes the trout were darting hith- er and thither full of energy. He dropped five drops into the vat | with the bigger fish and gave orders for this treatment to be repeated daily. Within five days the goitres Superior. | | said he found Rill Roszak. | the hands. dead in the barn. a bullet had practically disappeared. Coi. Coupal explained this by saying that the addition of lodine to the water relieved the thyroid glands from the necessity of producing much lodine. The glands therefore decreased in size and the goitres disappeared. The hatchery attendants still re- gard the whole performance as nothing short of a miracle.

This means that there are many thousands of miles of unused transportation which may be bought at a low price and enjoyed by the second owner. While not all the cars that are now being traded- in are relatively new,among them you will find op- portunities in cars whose intrinsic value is greater than their selling price — a fact which millions of Because of the great volume of new cars sold by General Motors dealers, their tocks of cars taken in trade offer a wide range of used car values.
