Copenhagen, March 29.-Many of tho
majority Socialists who have been in the
ranks of the rebellious workmen in the
Ruhr district of Germany have quit the
fighting front and are being followed in
their action by the independent Socialists,
according to a telegram from Muenster
today.
The manager of the krupp plant at
Essen has issued denial that the plant
was manufacturing munitions for the
insurgents.
The executive council of the Essen
workingmen has withdrawn its order
permitting the seizure of food in private
houses, the message adds, because the
privilege had been made pretext for the
plundering of the better class houses for
valuables.
A despatch TO the Politken from Muen-
ster SAYS General Won Waters troops

81, 900 men and that ruInforcements are

munists in the Ruhr region heard Paul
Levy of Frankfort, president of the Com
munist party of Germany declare that his
party could not win its fight under the
present conditions.
1--WE want to break off this fight as
soon as we can, were Herr Levy's words.
1--WE cannot fight singiehanded against
the rest of Germany"
The spokesman for the communists
declared what his faction objected 10 was
militarism "Our kind of people are sick
of It," he said.
Herr Levy insisted that the outcome Of
the movement in the industrial field might
have been definite If the men had not spent
their enthusiasm in the general strike.
AT present however" he continued,

must not attempt the impossible. +"

CHINESE PHYSICIANS I.
Still AFTER demons
Medical and Surgical Methods In
Parts OF Orient Are But
Relics OF the Dark Ages

Chattanooga, Tenn, March l2.-
Native physicians OF China, still be
ueve thay demons ara the cause OF
most human ailments, and their prac-
tee Is confined in a large part to
driving them out OF patients, accord
Ing to information reaching this city
from Dr.. Egbert W. Smith. head OF
the foreign missions COMMITTEES OF tha
Southern Presbyterian church
The practice OF medicine in the
Yellow Kingdom is mostly a hoax,
from first TO last, DR.. Smith said, but
the methods that have been in use for
centuries are being driven out by the
more advanced ways OF the western
world.
Among the cases that have come
recently 10 the attention OF Presby-
terrain missionaries In China was that
OF a girl Of l6. When seen by the
missionary, her jaw was frightfully
swollen 1t was caused by the native
doctors piercing it with big fiat
needle, Ave inches long, TO drive out
the demon that had made the tooth
to ache
The needle. being the same with
which he had been piercing all man
ner of turnors and ulcers, Of course
infected the jaw, causing extreme
agony and resulting in necrosis OF the
Jaw bone, a. considerable part OF
which the Christian doctor said would
have to be removed.
In the same hospital was found
young man suffering fortunes with his
leg, which the heathen doctor had
pierced TO exrel the demon. ard from
which the Christian physicians was
preparing to remove several inches of
dead bone.
This piercing Is the common raedi-
cal practice in Korea and China" de-
clared DR.. Smith. and these two pa
-tfeats represent millions that at this
hour are being equally tortured and
manned and many of them killed,
poor victims OF heather superstition.
In the fifteen mission hospital plants
supported by the Southern Presby-
terrain church over 100. 900 are treat
ed every year, DIR. Smith said AS
a, part of the Presbyterian progress
slve program, additional funds will be
made available for medical and other
work IN countries OF the orient. A
total Of $4,000. 60a is being raised for
the year 1320-l92i.
