ONE DIES, MANY ARE
OVERCOME BY HEAT
Drowning and Minor Mishaps
Attributed to New TOrrid
Wave.

With the temperature officially re-
corded as So degrees. the highest since
July s. the renewed heat wave yesterday
was responsible for one death by heat
prostration. five less serious cases OF
heat exhaustion. one drowning and the
rescue of three persons from drowning.
Although the official thermometer
showed the temperature at its highest
point in more than two weeks the per-
centage of humidity was below normal
and considerably lower than the high
marks established earlier In the month.
This afforded measure of relief, but
thousands flocked to beaches, harbor
craft, parks and open spots about the
city. Partly cloudy and moderate weather
is forecast to-day.
Rocco Di Clio of SIS East Eighty
fifth street was drowned while swim
ming in the Harlem River with COM
panions off 135th street. Michael Nc
Dermott, chief clerk in the offices of
the Edison Company, who lived at 527
Forty-ninth street, Brooklyn. was taken
Ill in the offices of the company, A
West Twenty street, and died
before an ambulance arrived. Death was
due to heat prostration, it was said.
Miss Dorothy Meyers of New Ro-
chelle and James Fetora of Mount Ver-
non were rescued from drowning Off
Huckleberry Island yesterday afternoon
by Frank Caruso, acting keeper at the
Mount Vernon police station. The couple
swan out about 100 yards from the float
of the New York Yacht Club. when the
young woman was frightened by swal-
lowing mouthful of water. She seized
Fetora about the neck and clung des-
perately until Caruso broke her grip
and with some difficulty brought the two
ashore.
Patroman Gross, Rail and Whalcn of
the West 177th street station saw a man
struggling In the Harlem River near
225th street and Broadway. The trio
formed human chain and grabbed the
man when he was swept close to the
bulkhead. He gave his name as George
Miller and said he lived at COL Union
avenue, The Bronx. He was sent TO
Bellvue Hospital for observation.

BOOTLEG WHESKEY
CAUSES INSANITY
Worse Than Shell Shock, Says
Ton,bs Physician.

Or. Perry NJ. Lichtenstein, resident
physician in the Tombs. testified at a
hearing before lunacy commission yes
terday that poor alcohol, manufactured
since the coming of prohibition, has
caused more insanity in his opinion
than was caused by shell shock during
the war. He appeared in the case of
Philip Murtha. IS. of 51 West l41th
street, whose sanity IS questioned.
Murtha was locked up short time
ago on charge of assault.
In previous years. there has been
only about one case year of alcoholic
insanity brought to his attention. DR..
Lichtenstein said. In the past month
he has examined three cases In the
Tombs.
Murtha. former bartender. has been
steady drinker for years. but a
record OF his case shows. according
to DR.. LAchtenstein, that the man did
not begin to show insanity symptoms
until he drank bootleg whiskey.
Fusel oil and other poisonous sub
stances in green liquors was the prin-
cipal cause of the trouble. Continuing,
DR. Lichtenstein said This alcohol
causes a toxic condition which deadens
and destroys the nervous system and
produces what Is known to alienists
as alcoholic psychosis.'

PRESIDENT TO SPEED
RELIEF IN THE SOUTH
Report of Threatened Semi
Famine and Pellagra Epi-
demic Hasten Action.

WASHINGTON, July 25.-Alarmed by
reports of threatened "semi-famine,
coupled with an epidemic or pellagra
In a large section OF the southern cotton
belt, President Harding to-day requested
both the public health service and the
American Red Cross to make immediate
investigation and report what could be
done by the Federal Government to re-
lieve the situation.
The fullest cooperation Of all Federal
agencies in the relief measures was
promised by the President. who declared
that IL found necessary. Congress would
be asked to pass special legislation.
The President in his letter to Surgeon
General Cumming said:
"I have been greatly concerned to
note the public statement from ING pup-
lie health service as to the menace OF
pellagra and condition of at least semi
famine in a large section of the cotton
belt. That such a condition Is obviously
temporary incident to the economic
dislocation following the war cannot
lessen our concern. Famine and plague
are words almost foreign to our Amer
lean vocabulary, save as we nave learned
their meaning in connection with the
afiictions Of lands less favored and
toward which our people so many times
"Immediate and effective measures OF
amelioration are manifestly demanded II
conditions even approximate the gravity
suggested by the public health report
1t Is unthinkable that we should delay
for a single day the institution of such
measures. Therefore 1 am writing tc
ask you for the most complete possible
report that can be made at once--pro-
vided there is anything to add to what
you have already made public-and
especially for suggestion of proper
measures to deal with the situation.
II am also writing to DR.. Livingston
Farrand, head of the American Red
Cross in the same tenor. and
wish you both to be assured Of my CO.
operation and of all aid that can ap-
proximately be given through the execu-
tive departments and to know that II
full information about the situation shall
make apparent that legislative action Is
necessary. / will on proper showing
be prepared to ask the requisite au-
thorization from the Congress

HOUSE MAY DEMAND
THAT POT OF GOLD
Considers Forcing Mrs. Berg
doll to Tell Where Stacker
Son Hid His Money.
Special Despatch to- THE New York HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,
Washingfon ID O.. July 25. (

washington, II IL. july 20.
The House committee In its final re-
port on the escape of the Stacker. G. c.
Bergdoll, to Germany. may request the
Alien Property Custodian to take steps
to force Mrs. Emma Bergdoll. mother OF
the draft dodger. to dig up" the pot Of
gold which has featured the committees
inquiry.
Representative Luhring (Ind.) of the
committee said the pot of gold story
should be cleared up by forcing Mrs
Bergdoll either to produce or admit 1t
never was buried. In previous testimony
before the committee Mrs. Bergdoll said
she alone knew where 1t was buried and
did not propose to tell "a living soul
the hiding place of the treasure.
Hearings in the investigation were
closed to-day when William r. Campbell,
father of Major Bruce Campbell. cor
roborated his sons statements in defence
of the charges made by Mrs. Bergdoli
that the officer had obtained q $h.G0"
tribe from her "to fix higher ups" and
effect the release Of her Stacker son.
The committee hearings ended peace
fully in contrast with the uproar Satur-
day. when Representative Johnson iKy.)
sought to attack Charles A. Braun Of
Philadelphia, one OF the Bergdoll broth
ers who changed his name. To-day Mr..
johnson, who Saturday had to oe forci-
bly, restrained from attacking Braun.
wiped tears from his eyes as hc praised
the many charitable acts OF Col. Milton
Young OF Lexington, who made a fortune
from racing and gambling.
Major Campbell and his father had
testified that Col. Young gave to the
former $4,000 in 1917 Gs the result of
$500 deposited with him In 1915 for
speculation. The father to-day told of
paying this sum to his son in March.
1917
The fact tha. Major Campbell was
done an injustice In the investigation OF
his case by Military Intelligence officers
was revealed to-day when the seaboard
National Bank. New York. telegraphed
to the committee that more than $4,000
had been deposited in the account OF
Laura e. Campbell. his wife, in Decem-
ber, 1917. Military Intelligence officers
examined his account with the bank in
1919 and 1t showed no large deposit
They apparently neglected to go back to
1917. Major Campbell also testified that
SIG, 900 was deposited in his wife's name
in the Park National Bank in 1917.
