STATE REPORTS
SHOW INFANT|LE.
PARALYSIS CAIN
U. S. Aids Areas Affected in
Preventing Spread of
\ Disease.
BY JOSEPH S. wAsNEY

united Press STAN Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-Infan-
tile paralysis is spreading in some
parts of the United States.
Reports to the United States
public health service today showed
considerable increase in the disease
in Ohio, Massachusetts,, California
and New Jersey in the past few
weeks. More than 450 new cases
we're reported throughout the coun-
try for the week of Sept 8.
Government physicians have been
sent to States where the outbreak
is most pronounced to aid local au-
thorities in combating spread of
the disease scientifically known .as
"polionglitis."
Delay School Opening
Ohio authorities reported that in
several localities opening of schools
has been postponed because of the
disease.
West Virginia applied for a quar-
antine regulation prohibiting Ohio
children to enter their State, but
Federal physicians advised them
such a move would be of no real
value, so application was withdrawn.
State authorities are handling the
outbreak, and the Federal Govern
ment is aiding to prevent another
wave of the disease similar to that
which swept the country in 1916.
DR.. G. G. Pierce, assistant United
States surgeon general, told the
United ress today that children in
the affected areas should avoid 60
ing to movies, fairs and picnics.
Poiso1s Brain Tissues
The disease is most prevalent in
the late summer and fall, he said.
1t is communicable and the germ
can be carried by healthy person
as we'll as diseased one, he said.
The germ usually enters the body
through the mucous membrane of
the nose.
THE germs of infantile paralysis
act as a direct poison to the tissues
OF the brain and of the spinal cord"
DR.. Pierce said. They kill many of
the large nerve cells in the brain
and spinal cord, and when these
nerve cells die. their function of
furnishing energy, to move certain
parts of the body stops.
THE body does not seem 20 have
the power to create new cells of this
kind, once they are destroyed. If
there are a sufficient number of
these cells they may gradually over
come the paralysis. Sometimes they
are not much injured"

BLACK FRIDAY BRINGS
PANIC IN GERMANY
Reichsbank Heads Move to Check
Unjustifed Speculation Causes
Crisis on Exchange.
BY EDGAR ANsWEL MoWRER.

BY Radio TO The Star ana chicago DAILY
News. Copyright. 1927.
BERLIN. May 1s.-"Black Friday,
accompanied by snow fiurries, dawned
on the Berlin Stock Exchange today.
when the expected crisis which OBJ
servers have been predicting for
months arrived with bang, and the
exchange committee met hurriedly TO
consider the necessity of closing the
exchange, It finally was decided not
to take this step, but the exchange
opened with long boards Of sellers and
with no bids whatever except for two
stocks.
The entire crisis is attributed by in
furiated brokers not to the literally
insane speculation Of the last few
months, but to the intervention of
the Reichsbank president, who an
nounced his intention to squeeze out
uniustified speculation, and prevailed
upon the general bank consortium to
reduce the contango, or carrying over
Of money, by 25 per cent by the mid
die Of June.
1t is stated that much Stock Ex-
change money has been borrowed
abroad for short terms by banks and
used to finance speculation, but the
bankers are unable to stand the pres
sure of the Reichsbank head.
The stock drain really started I'M
mediately after the incredible boom of
May A, when stocks reached a point in
many cases three times as high as
in December, 1925, since which date
they have been climbing steadily,
cut of all proportion to the industrial
recovery. Many persons became ac-
customed to living on their profits
from stock increases. Dividends had
become a mere detail.
One of the causes given for pre-
cipitating matters at this moment IS
the large request for German ex-
change made this year by Agent Cen
eral of Preparations Gilbert It is felt
in soberer circles, however, that the
stock decline was inevitable.
Foreign money is in no danger,
since the banks have the situation
well in hand, and declare they are
prepared to meet even greater depres-
sion.
AS this dispatch Is being concluded
further break Of the market is re-
ported. The outlook is uncertain.
