PRESIDENT CHANG
 REPORTED OUSTED
Semi-OHicial Reports Have Chi neSe Extremists in Control

San Francisco, Dec. 10 P-Ine Chinese Nationalist Daily. Chinese language newspaper here, told the Associated Press today it had been informed reliably that President chiang Kai-Shek of China not only had been busted but that the left wing of the Kuomintang had de- manded that his entire organization be removed and the widely known revolutionary Wang Chao- Ming. be made chief executive as the price of peace in the far eastern republic.
 The information. the newspaper said. came in semi-official press dis patches from Kuomintang Ueorlc's Party) leaders in Canton and Nan king.
 Although the reported resignation of Chiang lacked rcrification through foreign news channels. M s. Jung, speaking on behalf of the Chinese newspaper. said Chinese ad- vices agreed on it and stated that hc only thing. delaying his replace mont hy Wang Chao- Ming. otherwise known as Wang Ching Wei. was the problem of eliminating all of Chiang kai-Shek's organization.
 AlIcgc Trcachcry
 The local newspaper said the Nuomintang representatives in this country are explaining to the 1O0.- oh or so Chinese in America whaI he present revolution meant Ac- cording to that explanation Chiang kai-Shcl is alleged to have be- 1raycd the original principles of Dr. SEn Yat-Son. founder Of the Ma tlonaliSt government.
 When Chang was elevated to the chairmanship of the executive Yuan" said the papers spokesman. i've expected him to carry out the revolutionary principles which the party advocated. This. We feel. he Las not done. Instead. he has Vecrcd 0 the right, with the result that his government was as conservative and autocratic as it was before China became united under the National isL flag.
 The left wing of the Kuomin- lang. which is behind the present revolution and admittedly in the vast majority in the Kuonintang, intends to restore the party and the government 10 the truly republican principles Of Dr. Sun Yat Sen. To do his it has been decided to make Chang ChinG-Wci president and un- der him carry out the party's orig iral ideals"
 Want Peace With Russia
 The partN's plans, said Jung quoting dispatches. include making peace with Russia and working in cooperation with that country as China did in tho days before thiall2 hocamc president and when M. Bo- iodin and his Russian collcgiHtrs acted as advisers to the governing committees in IIankoW. The plan in, chId"h restoration Of the status quo ante in Manchuria, with renewal of joint Russian and Chinese manage nCnt Of the Chinese Eastern railway as provided by treaty.
 NuomintanS representatives here say that among the things the new revolution will do if successful is to retire to private life Sun Fo. son of the late Sun Yat- Sen. because he is regarded as having been too closely allied with the conservatives sur rounding Chiang Kai-Sh&E.

yesterday called attention to a report
from the New York office of the AS
ISOLATION of Chests and Councils, listing
various foreign countries in which in
quiries have been made about the plan
and several in which it has been
adopted.
The report of the association also
declared that $50 cities and towns in
the United States are now using the
plan as against only 20 using 1t in
1919.
The first distant city from the United
States to adopt the plan was Honolulu,
according to the report, which has been
successfully carrying on its welfare
work under the Chest since the World
War. The Chest there provides not
only for dependents among the Amer
lean and European population, but also
for the needy among the natives.
At present the report shows the fol-
lowing Canadian cities are financing
their welfaree charitable activities on
the Chest plan: Hamilton. ontario;

Raw Starches From Vegetables
May Give Same Results as Insulin

Raw starches, in the form of I'M
cooked vegetables, are foreseen rs a
possible substitute for insulin in the
treatment of mild diabetes.
After two years of research, DR.. S.
M. Rosenthal, pharmacologist of TIE
hygienic laboratory. United States Pub
lie Health Service, has found that raw
starches may be eaten without an ap-
preciable rise in blood sugar.
The effect of insulin, which is in
jected, is to keep the quantity of sugar
from rising in a patients blood after
a meal. Further tests are being car
ried out to determine whether raw
vegetables. taken as a part of the
meal, will not be as effective as in
sulin.

Research is progressing to determine
