NESTHETIC To
KILLPAIN AFTER
SURGERY FOUND
Devised by Young Research
Chemist, Diothane Wins
Doctors o. K.

| By United Press
CINCINNATI, o., Dec. 18.-D1o-
thane anesthetic, latest conqueror OF
pain known to medical science, has
been perfected by DR.. T. H. Rider OF
Cincinnati, research chemist for a
drug manufacturing company.
Used by surgeons in several hos
pitals Throughout the country for
several months, diothane has been
adapted for the elimination, OF pain
after operations. 1t was developed
exclusively by DR.. Rider, who began
work on the formula nine years ago
while a student at Yale.
Technically known as piperidino-
propanediol diphenylurethane n.y.
drochloride, diothane already has
been Endorsed by the American
Medical Association and its use will
become general soon, DR.. Rider said.
The compound is designed chiefly
for use in urology and tonsilectomy.
It is applied in liquid form, ! per
cent solution in water. The throat
and nose are sprayed with the So
luton.
In an appendectomy, diothane Is
injected before the incision is closed.
In other operations, it is COM
pounded in a sslve and applied to
the part of the body near the oper-
alton.
Effects of diothane are retained
four or five days without injuring
tissues, actual tests showed.

EXTENSION Of Time
GRANTED K|DNAPERS
BY AD0LPH Bremen
Father Of Abducted Man SAYS
He Will Not Call Police
Until Thursday

st. Paul, Feb. 7.-(P)-Another day
in which to communicate with the
family before law enforcement agen-
cies might be called in was granted
Wednesday by Adolph Bremen to the
kidnap gang holding his son, Edward,
for 100000 ransom.
with the hope Of making contact !
have decided to extend the time un-
til Thursday night" said terse state
ment issued by the elder Bremen at
noon Wednesday. Officials have
agreed to this"
Last Saturday Adolph Bremen an
nounced he would give the gang three
days and three nights in which to
contact the family with assurance Of
secrecy and cooperation without police
interference. That period OF grace
began Sunday noon, Bremen said, and
ended at noon Wednesday.
When he issued that statement
last week, the father Of the 37-year-
old Commercial State Bank president,
seized Jan. II, inferred that unless
some word had been received from
the gang up to noon Wednesday, he
would call In federal operatives and
city police. So far he has refused to
cooperate with them.
Despite Bremer's denial that con-
tact had been established in the last
three days, speculation arose over
whether some news of the missing
banker had been received from his
captors. It was understood Wednes-
days brief statement was issued IN
contemplation Of contact by tomor-
row night"
Whether the time extension was
motivated by q message from the gang
or by the family's belief that three
days and three nights was not SUI
ficient time for final negotiations, was
conjectura!.
The elder Bremen would not reveal
whether, II no message IS received by
Thursday night. he would carry out his
yelled threat to give the authorities
. free rein In hunting the gang.
Wednesday was the 22nd day the
banker has been absent from home
and grave fears have been expressed
whether he was still alive.
