ID TRY NEW METHOD ID SAVE WOUNDED Orthopedic Surgery Will Be Largely Applied in
 Germany

Frankfort-on-Man. January 20.-(Cor- respondent of the Associated Press.) Orthopedic surgery is likely to be largely applied in Germany in order to reduce the cases of permanent deformity of soldiers wounded on the battlefield In local medical circles the applicability of this method has been discussed for some time, and it will shortly be proposed that large medico-mechanical centers be established to deal with this problem. The military authorities have been approached on the subject and have received the suggestion favorably. It Is understood, in fact, that an organization for this pur- pose is now being shaped.
 It is proposed to employ as far as neces- sary orthopedc specialists not already serving in the army. and recall from mi!i- tary service such others as may be need own establishments or at the centers about to be provided.
 With the system in operation all wound ed will be examined with a view of ascertaining whether or not their cast lends itself to treatment by the medico- mechanical method. Wounds which might entail the uselessness of limb through damage to the muscles, and such others which might result in an incapacitatine displacement of bones, will be treated ir an orthopedic way whenever possible.

GERMANS PLAN TO SELL
 JEWISH SCHOOL

New York. February 14.-In a joint statement given out today by the pro- visional executive committee for gen. eral Zionist affairs and the Jewish na- tional fund bureau of America, it is declared the German Hilfsvereiu at Berlin intends to auction off the prop erty of the Jewish institute of tech nology at Haiffa, Palestine, and to ex- clude from participation number of contributors and creditors who can not be represented because of war con ditions The statement is signed by Louis D. Brandeis and J. L. Magnes, chairmen of the two organizations here.
 "The institute says the statement, was erected with funds contributed by Jews and Jewish organizations Of different countries. The German Hilf- sverein is represented as creditor. having merely made a loan. It is now practically attempting to obtain pos session of the institute by, first, ex- cluding all so-called foreign creditors; and second, buying in the property Tn the liquidation proceedings"
 The statement adds that the Zion ists of America, who are among the chief supporters of the fund. coRtribu- ting more than $40,000 annually, "are in hopes that official steps may be taken by Germany to persuade the Ger man trustees of the institute to post pone, their contemplated action.s

CONGRESS BOUND IN
 WORST LEGISLATIVE TANGLE IN HISTORY
Conservative Senate May Try to Break Ancient Right of Unlimited Debate. SO-
 lutiOn Is Doubtful

Washington, February 14.-Congress tomorrow will enter on the last 1G days of the Sixty-third session bound n one of the most extraordinary legislative tangles of it's history-a tangle so threatening that conservative majority members in the Senate who have re- spected the hard and fast rules of that deliberative body throughout the years have determined to try to break the fetters of unlimited debate.
 Amendments to the rules proposed would end the prolonged republican fiji buster against the government ship purchase bill and permit it's passage not later than February 10. Democratic leaders propose tomorrow to press cloture rule and they expect to find d way for vote on it.
 Passage of a cloture rule however, seems doubtful as Senate democrats are far from unanimous on the proposal, notwithstanding that a democratic caucus agreed to the programme last night. Seven democrats who revolted against the ship purchase bill remained away from the party conference and others are not satisfied that any cloture rule should be adopted. Such action would be unprecedented in Senate pro- cedure.
 While the Senate is fighting out the plan to limit debate, the action on the ship bill itself will remain in the House where it shifted last week. House dem ocrats will caucus tomorrow night on the compromise Weeks Gore ship bill as amended with President Wilson's ap- proval, and it is planned to pass the bill Tuesday.

Cold Hands Saved Life

From the New York Evening Sun
 Cold hands prevented William Nash a New York business man, who resides at 2G6 Fifth avenue, Paterson, N J., from committing suicide on the bridge of the Erie railroad at the Vreeland avenue crossing at Nutley.
 Nash, who is Al years old and connect ed with the New Era Manufacturing com pany, had fastened a rope about one of the railroad ties of the bridge when a citizen found him standing with his hands in his pockets to warm them so he could fasten the other end of the rope about his neck and then jump off the bridge. He was taken into custody and held at police headquarters in Nutley.
 Nash is believed to be suffering from some mental disorder. He was treated sometime ago at a sanitarium in Boston, of which city he was formerly resi- dent He is a graduate of Harvard and studied law. i 5t

COLONEL GORGAS
 VISITS TUSCALOOSA
Surgeon-General of U. s. Army Is at the Old
 GOrgas Home

University February 14.-(Special)-Dr. William c. Gorgas, surgeon-general of the United States army, the man who "cleaned up' the Panama canaf zone of yellow fever. visited his sister, Miss Mary Gorgas, in the historic old Gorgas home on the campus here today.
 General Gorgas came here from Colum- biana, Shelby county, where he has been giving expert testimony in suits brought against the Alabama Power company, all leging the prevalence of malaria due to the backing up of water behind the big power dam at Lock 12 on the Coosa river.
 General Gorgas spent some weeks in Coosa, Chiffon, Talladega and Shelby counties Investigating conditions around the dam prior to completing his testimony at Columbiana and then came over here arriving at noon today. He leaves for Washington at an early hour tomorrow morning.
 Questions by correspondent here re- vealed the fact that Colonel Gorgas, though his family resided here for many years while his father was president of the university. is not graduate of the university, but is a member of the class of 1875 at Sewanee. where his father was president before being called to the Ala bama university. He spent many of his boyhood years. however, in Bibb county His sister, Miss Mary Gorgas, has been for sometime assistant librarian of the university and still resides in the old home, which forms a picturesque scene on one side of the campus.
 Colonel Gorgas refused to comment on general sanitary conditions in Alabama or the south saying that he was only familiar with the conditions of which he had made a special investigation at Lock 12
 He thought the creation of a federal department of health "very desirable in- deed.'

 A deluge of questions obliged the Cor Ter many months ago to decline noticing queries of this sort. To tell dozen ap- plicants per day on what day each first saw the light involved a degree of work that left not time for matters of more general interest.

Republicans Firm

Whatever the House does, republican senators insist they will continue their un- relenting opposition to the ship bill as long as the administration forces keep it before the Senate.
 Some democratic sena tors believe that even the President is convinced that the republican filibuster cannot be over come and that he desires the House to pass the bill to prove that Senate repub- lyicans, aided by few insurgent demo- crats, are primarily responsible for the fate of the measure and the failure thus far to pass appropriation bills. Should the bill be held up in the Senate to pass appropriation bills before March there are some senators who think an extra session may he avoided but members of Congress generally look for a special session.
 The congestion of the big supply meas tres is unprecedented at a short ses- sion of Congress. The Senate, with only 16 working days left, has to pass IS ap- propriaton bills, involving hundreds of millions of dollars for the operations of the government, and of these five have not been acted on by the House.
 House leaders who pressed the river and harbor bill were gratified today over what they regarded as an assurance that Senator Brown probably would not fili- buster against this measure in the Senate as he did last year.
