All Are Ordered to Cease
Fast by Founder of Sinn
Fein, Who Bids Them
Live and Fight for Erin
Bishop Called On
Prisoners to Eat
Doctors at Cork Jail Ad-
minister Food, but Fear
Men May Not Recover
By Frank Getty

From The Tribnnes European bureau
copyriTht 1880, New York Tribune Inc.
LONDON, Nov. 12-The hunger
strike which five Irish prisoners in the
Jail at Cork had maintained for ninety
four days was ended to-day when Ar
thur Gr;fiths. founder of Sim F6in
and acting president Of the Irish ere
public" called on them to abandon
their protest and live for Ireland.
In letter to Lord Mayor O'Calla-
CHAN of Cork, Grifhths wrote: 81 am
OF the opinion that our countrymen in
Cork prison have sufficiently proved
their devotion and fidelity and that
they should now, as they were prepared
to die for Ireland, prepare again to
live for her"
Recovery Of Strikers in Doubt q
The signal thus given by the Irish
leader to end the strike affects seven
other hunger strikers in the jail whose
fast has not been so lone Only five
of the strikers BEGAN their abstinence
two days before Terence MacSwiney
first refused food
Medical opinion here is divided as
to whether the men who have been
fasting ninetyfour days can be re-
stored to health. Many physicians
doubt whether they can live. When
seen by the Tribune correspondent at
the time of MacSwiney's funeral the
Cork prisoners were SO emaciated that
they were little more than skin and
bones. Their faces resembled skulls.
For weeks they have been unable to
speak or even to recognize their
friends. Two of them have died. 1T IS
feared that even Grifiths's reprievc
gives them little to live for.
Minds May Be Affected
London physicians say they have
never known Of case in which a man
recovered completely after fasting more
than twelve days. In many instances
that have come under their consdera-
ton, the physicians say, the minds of
fasters show the effects of their alb
stinencc when they again begin eating.
Gritfiths's appeal was the latest devel-
opment in the tense situation sur
rounding the situation at the Cork jail
1t came as an answer to a renewed
appeal from Bishop Cohalan, of Cork,
urging that further succession Of
deaths would not impress the world

press hopes of being able to nurse the

and 1t appeared under the title ''Tom-

RECIPE TO CLEAR
A PIMPLY SKIN
Pimples Are Impurities Seeking

Pores

,Pimples, sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins, poisons and i'm.
purities which are generated in the
bowels and then absorbed into the
blood through the very ducts which
should absorb only nourishment to
sustain the body.
It is the function of the kidneys
to filter impurities from the blood
and cast them out in the form OF
urine, but in many instances the
bowels create more toxins and i'm.
purities than the kidneys can elm
mate, then the blood uses the skin

often break out all over the skin in

Chinese Jade.


Jade, known in India rs "The
Divine Stone," is becoming more pop
ular as a luck bringer. According to
old legends, jade has always been a
very precious stone, and in China and
india is said to possess charm
against evil. In India it is worn as an
amulet to preserve the wearer from
the bites of venomous animals. The
Chinese jade is the most precious OF
all and very difficult to obtain, as the
Chinese do not export much Of it. This
may be due to it's rarity, but more
probably it is because the stone, which
they call "Quintessence Of Heaven
is considered too precious to send out
of the country because of the charm
attached to it. There are many other
kinds of jade and they can be bought
for very reasonable sums, but moth
Ing can equal the Chinese stone for
color and transparency.

about four ounces of Jad Salts and
take tablespoonful in a glass of
hot water each morning before
breakfast for one week. This will
prevent the formation of toxins in

SILVER SHORTAGE
Is BOON TO MINES
IN UNITED STATES
American Chamber of Com
~
merce in London Says Pros
pect Is Promising
international News Service)

London, Feb. 2O.-The silver
standard in use in Oriental countries,
coupled with the enormous CONNER
cial expansion now in course OF prog
ress between the West and the east,
indicates that there is an immense
shortage Of silver to meet the de-
mands of trade says the American
Chamber of Commerce in London.
One result OF this shortage is that
American and Mexican silver mines
may look forward confidently to an
era of unprecedented prosperity for
many years to come. Silver, the
American Chamber understands must
also be found to back over thirty
billion dollars worth of paper money
issues floating in Europe today, in
addition to which Americas increas-
ing volume of trade with India and
China calls for almost unlimited sup
plies of the metal
The United States and Mexico fur
nish nearly three-fourths Of the
worlds yearly output of silver the
larger portion coming from the for
mer. While American and British
trade with the East monthly attains
higher levels, Oriental exporters con-
tinue to pile up balances owing them
by the. Western nations, and as the
price of the white metal advances it
has become PORTABLE for most coun-
tries to convert minted silver into
bullion. Small Change" says the
American Chamber, continues to dis.
appear on the Continent with re-
markabel rapidity, postage stamps
largely replacing the former silver
coin of small value.
Even without this tendency toward
boarding and conversion into bullion
of minted silver, the United States is
believed to be the one country in po-
sition today to buy silver for COIN
age without debasing it's standard
coins. Under circumstances such as
these It. is impossible to foretell at
what point the upward price Of silver
will ind it's limit.

OLD BEATEN TRACKS
ARE TO Be AVOIDED
IN TRAINING TEAM
That Will Represent the United
States Emblem in
Antwerp
nv Henry L. Farrell


New York, Feb. 2O.-Old, beaten
kracks are to be avoided by the Amer
lean Olympic committee in training
the team that will carry the United
States emblem to Antwerp this sum
mer. ~.
Sidetracking the old single coach
inv system is one of the innovations
being favored as the first step in the
policy Of applying modern efficiency
and new methods in the training OF
the team.
Everett c.. Brown, Chicago, men,
Der of the committee, favors the Sc
lection of coach from every section
of the nation that is to have canal
dates for the team.
He suggests the appointment or
head coach and trainer to. be helped
bv a staff of assistants who are faml-
liar with the men who will be select
ed to keep the worlds athletic SUI
premacy in America.
Too many administrative duties,
he points out, fall upon the shoulders
of the head coach. He hasn't the
time to take an individual interest in
selection of the team.
The committee, faced by more ur-
gent business in arranging the pre-
liminaries, has not given mucn
thought to the selection of a coach.
The services of a team coach, the
committee, believes are not lmpera-
tive until the time just preceding the
eslection OF the team.
However, most of the Olympic talk
now concerns the candidates for the
trainers position. Numerous ellg-
ibles are being recommended by their
sectional followings.
Lawson Robertson, coach of the
University of Pennsylvania and assls-
tant to the late Mike Murphy at
Stockholm, has a big following that
wants to see him selected. II. W.
Maloney, coach Of Leland Stanford
University, California, who trained
the Yankee team for the 1nter-Allied
games in Paris, is another favorite.
Jack Moakley, of Cornell and
"Pooch" Donovan of Harvard like
wise are being mentioned.
"Evidently we have more trainers
FOR the team than we have athletes,
Secretary Ruben, of the A. A. U. said
a few DAYS ago. Il have had more
Inquiries about the trainers job than
anything else in connection with the
team. 1t seems to me that 1t Is
secondary matter to the selection OF
the athletes and the financing OF the
trip to Belgium"
Most Of the men selected Will
train at their homes until short
time before the date of sailing and
the length of time they will have
over there will be SO short before the
opening Of the games that they will
not need a trainer. No member OF
the team will wait till he arrives IN
Belgium to get into condition."
"When discussing the subject OF
the trainers importance to a team
it will be we'll to consider that some
of the best athletes in the Olympic
games of the past never had pro-
fessionai trainer. For instance, who
taught Almah Richards to jump? He
learned the game himself as well
Hannes Kohlemainen, the Finn; Jean
Bouin, the Frenchman and Arnold
Jackson, who won the 1900 metres
run"
