NUDE WOMAN
HELD SUICIDE

BALTIMORE, Dec. 23.-A
suicide certificate was issued to-
day in the death of Mrs. Edith B.
Gather, 33, whose nude body was
found yesterday in the gas filled
kitchen of the Rolling Road Golf
Club near Catonsville.
The woman had escaped from
the Spring Grove Hospital, a
mental institution last week, and
because of bruises on her body it
was first believed she might have
been murdered.
Examination, however, showed
she had suffered the bruises while
running through the woods in
escaping from the institution. She
apparently had been living in the
club for several days and had
eaten quantity Of canned food
stored in the basement.
The woman was sent to the
hospital in 1882 after having re-
ceived mental treatment in a New
Jersey hospital.
Police today we're attempting to
locate her husband, believed to be

Gomez in Finish Fight
President Gomez, a skilled law
yer and a man of courage, as
shown by his veto of the Batista-
fostered sugar tax bill for army
schools, closely studied every angle
Of his impeachment, and planned
a fight to the finish.
Secure in the support Of the
army, as well as the congress that
overrode Gomez's veto by a heavy
majority, Colonel Batista was GER
tain that Christmas Eve would see
the end of Gomez's brief regime
without the arny's resorting to
any extra-constitutional measures.
The senate of 36 members sits as
an impeachment court at 4 p. m.
today under the Craftsmanship Of
Federico Edelman, chief justice Of
the supreme court.
DR.. Gomez, whose position as an
attorney won for him the right
to conduct his own defense, is ex-
pected to make a long and stirring
appeal against the charge that he
coerced congress in an attempt to
force defeat of the sugar tax.
Gun TOters Warned
Since no time limit was placed
on either the prosecution or the
defense, presentation of testimony
probably will take until early to-
morrow. Then the Senate court
will adjourn for six hours before
bringing in the verdict in Cuba's
first impeachment in its turbulent
history.
President Arturo 1las Of the
senate warned members that, If
they must carry pistols during the
trial, there must be no repetition
of the gun-play that threw the
senate into an uproar Monday.
But most supporters of Gomez
were chiefly interested today in
saving their own skins. Sorry now
that they spoke so bitterly against
Colonel Batista during congress
sional debates, they appealed, dur
ing a secret session of the lower
house, for guarantee against vio-
lence.

GAMING COUP
0Y EDWARD
IS DENIED
Story Of His Winning
$4,000 in Casino
Spreads, However
BY ALFRED TYRNAUER


VIENNA, Dec. % G.N.SJ.-Th>
burgomaster of Baden was routed
from bed to deny it, and the staff
of Castle Enzesfeld was awakened
to the same end-but still mid
night rumor spread today that the
Duke Of Windsor won more tha9n
100000 Austrian Schillings-neaDly
30,000-at the gambling tables in
Baden Casino.
Hearing the sensational re- port,
scores of newspapermen bore bdown
on the startled burgomastey in a
noisy automobile caravan at 3
a. M, and demanded of HERR Kohl
man whether the ex-King OF Eng
land had proved himself as lucky
on the green baize as he was un-
lucky on the throne.
The visitors were forced to ac-
cept the explanation that the
gambler was an Angl9-American
who had been mistaken for the
duke.
Still considering the possibility
that the Duke of Windsor, known
to be angry over the criticism
written by the Archbishop of York,
sought diversion at the gambling
tables, this correspondent estab-
lished contact with the Enzesfeld
household. The sharp answer was:
"The duke lives like q monk!
Please deny that rumOr about

Thirty American missionaries in

been out of touch with the
American Embassy here since
the uprising broke out 10 days.
ago, it was disclosed today.
Concerned for their safety, the
embassy today dispatched its
military attache, Col. Joseph
StiIIwell, to attempt to bring
them out of the area. Colonel
StillweII set out for LOyang, in
termediate city, where he
planned to negotiate or try to
enter Shensi province himself.
NANKING, Dec. % G.N.SO.
Nanking today gave Rebel Mar
shall Chang Hsueh.Liang three days
to "listen to reason" while Nine.
Chang Kai-Shek, with the fate
of China-and a kings ransom
in her hands negotiated for the re-
lease of her husband.
The government ordered hostili-
ties against Chang's troops sus-
pended for three days lest the
rebels, to hard pressed during the
negotiations at Sianfu, might ex-
ecute Premier Chang.
The truce was declared at the
urgent instance of T. v. Soong,
head of the rich house of Soong
and brother of Nine. Chang, who
accompanied her on her flight to
Sianfu.
Seeks Ransom Slash
One hundred million Chinese
dolIars-about $30,000,0O0 Ameri-
can-is reported to be the basis
for the ransom discussions. But
not even the great house Of Soong,
it's Golfers filled by the financial
wizardry of Nine. Chiang's
brother, or the Chinese nationalist
government, can easily raise $780,
100000, and she is said to be dick.
ering for a reduction in Chang's
demands.
Weird scenes, typical Of the
bizarre atmosphere of this most
amazing of kidnapings, welcomed
the Wellesley College educated
Nine. Chang after her 700-mile
flight from Nanking.
Torches Guide Plane
Landing at dusk on a muddy
field, her pilot was guided by
smoking torches held by lines Of
enemy soldiers. Nine. Chang,
Soong, and w. H. Donald, Austral-
ian advisor to Generalissimo
Chang, walked straight through
the hostile lines to waiting cars.
She took up her task at once,
but whether she was permitted to
see her husband was not stated
in meager messages arriving from
Sianfu.
Authorities here agreed, how
ever, that failure Of Nine. Chiang's
heroic mission is likely to involve
collapse of the Nanking govern
ment, and plunge China into a
disruptive civil war.
TOKYO, Dec. % G.N.s)-Two
German members of Generals
simo Chang Kai-Shek's personal
staff, DR.. Herbert Wunsch and

when they were seized by Marshal

ing happiness a grand and glori'
Gus victory.
We cannot find words Of praise
wonderful enough to thank the
Goodfellows whose responses have
been so splendid.
Think of the Poor
While your own children are
gathering about the Christmas
tree with shouts of joy as they
find what Santa has left them,
your own JOY will be fuller if you
know that, because of you, there
are other children who likewise
are rejoicing, that other little
faces are smiing instead Of weep
ing, that other little stomachs are
full instead of empty, that other
little bodies are warm rather than
suffering with cold.
It really is not difficult to bring
happiness to the hearts of little
poor children on the day of days
they have so little at other
times.
Won't you help these less for
tunate ones have merry Christ
mas rather than a dreary one?
Hurry! The time is short.
Notify the Goodfellow Editor of
The Washington Times and the
name of family will be given you.
The rest is up to you. A few toys,
little food. And you have brought
cheer where only despair would
have reigned.
Pleas Still Coming
Won't you do this little bit to
help others at this happy season?
Appeals for help, desperate pleas,
have come to us-are still coming
in-and frankly we are worried De
cause a lot of little children (who
are always the innocent victims of
poverty and hunger) will be heart
broken when they awaken on
Christmas morning to find that
Santa did not come.
We know of three little boys,
ages 3, 5 and 7, who will not have
a thing unless some Goodfellow
provides their Christmas. Their
father is unemployed, the mother
i'll, and the family is being housed
and fed through the charity of
relatives.
But the relatives have declared
their inability to provide a Christ
mas for the youngsters. Helpless.
the mother asked a neighbor to
put in her plea for her children.
Now, these children need shoes,
and they would be satisfied with
one toy apiece.
Real Santa Needed
We know of the condition Of a
PWA worker, whose salary is
never more than $45 a month
usually less, because he cannot
work during bad weather and
does not receive full pay. This
meager salary is not even enough
to supply food and pay rent, let
along provide Christmas to his
four youngsters, aged Z, 5, 4, and
/ year. Couldn't someone else
play Santa Claus to these kiddies?
There is the case where the
father is sick in bed with tubercu-
| losiS and his five children, the eld-
