Donald Cameron McC] lland, de- fendant in the divorce case, issued a | statement saying: “I think it a shame that anybody | shonld as fine as Miss Brady he dragged all over the front of the newspapers. x x x My only con- nection with her has been a purely business one. As for taking trip: they were purely of a b s na- ture. I might have left on any train, but it is natural for a company to travel together.” The divorce Brady made trips with and entertained him at her New York home and that he made the Brady home in New York' his mail- ing address. The daughter of William A. Brady, theatrical producer, ends her en- gagement here this week. McClel- land came to the stock compan week after Miss Brady open€éd he September 22.

These were photo- graphed in the Krankenhaus in Breslau, where Dr. er is chief physician of the neurological department. He gave statistics for 100 cases of fixation of limbs in abnormal posi- | tions due to accidental injuries to of the brain, and told how operations on nerves, muscles or {tendons ended both suffering and dis- ability. P Tells of Alding Hands Dr. Summer L. Koch, of at the same symposium, described operations on contractures of the hands. He pointed out that after |hands had been burned or crushed, | scartissue sometimes caused fixation of the hand, with loss of power to move the fingers. Many such cases were described by Dr. Koch in which he said hands had been made nor- mal by transplating thin grafts of skin. Subcutaneous tissue could also be transplanted, he said, and he added that physical therapy and the use of splints which brought elastic tension to bear on contracted tendons and stiffened joints aided in sefting things right. Dr. Koch paid tribute to .Dr. Al- len B. Kanavel, of Chicago, who als is attending the congress, as deserv- ing “a major share of the credit for developing these methods.” Torn Tissues Difficult Dr. Frederick J. Cotton of Boston said some of the most difficult ca a surgeon has to deal with werw fractures in which the tissues had been torn or had become infecte: said, had developed methods of cleaning and disinfecting such tissues, includ- ing the application of oxygen to the wound. In a symposium on electro-surs- ery, Dr. Kanavel said the radio knife could be used more effectively in some operations than the knife forg- ed of steel. The radio knife, a needle emitting hot sparks generat- cd by radio frequency currents, he explained, could both cut and pre- vent blecding.

(UP)—Wall street men believed today that a process of housecleaning is well un- der way in the stock market thus avoiding possible government action agaist excessive short selling. This view was strengthened by ap- parent tightening up on stocks for loaning purposes—needed by shorts in their operations; and by the revelation that stock exchange offi- cials had dined, unannounced, Sun- day night with President Hoover at ‘Washington. Hopes to Regulate Ttself The administration was pictured subsequently as hopeful that the ex- change would do 16. that this very process was under way—probably as a result of the heart to heart talk among President Hoover, President Richard Whitney of the New York Stock Exchange and Vice President Allen L.

The only alternative for the short seller if he cannot borrow ock, is to cover, or buy back his stock in the open market.

This scarcity of stock for lending purposes naturally will discourage short selling by making it unprofit- able.
