hall drinking tankard Of ale, and,
.bandying pleasantries with the
passing crowds. Which showed
what he thought Of the traditional
treatment.
Increase in Uric Acid
The cause Of govt is undoubtedly
an increase in uric acid in the blood.
But how this comes about is a mat
ter of dispute. 1t used to be said
that man, unlike the lower animals,
is unable to destroy uric acid in the
body. Therefore, it was supposed
that in govt there is a decreased ex-
erection. But the studies Of Talbot
and Coon1hs would seem to indicate
that increased formation is the
cause. Uric acid is found most
abundantly in meat in the diet,
especially the .purine containing
bodies-sweetbreads, kidneys, liver,
brains.
Treatment of govt divides itself
into the treatment OF the acute at
tack and of the period in-between
attacks.
Diet is the emphasized part of
the treatment between attacks. Re-
duction of the apurine foods to the
lowest possible level is a logical
step. Abstinence from alcoholic
beverages, tea and coffee Is also
generally advised.
But it must not be expected that
this will entirely eliminate attacks.
| Talbot and iCoombs recite the case
of a man who was kept nine months
in a hospital on a purine-free diet.
During this time he had Fl ATTACKS
and spent 80 days in bed. Then ne
went home and for IA months had
red meat at least once daily, and a
moderate intake of beer and whis-
key. In this period he had seven
acute attacks and spent seven days
in bed.

Cleveland, Ohio, Dec. 2.-(AP)-
About 10000 Clevelanders will be
given only apples and white flour
to eat next week unless there are
unexpected developments, city relief
officials declared today.
The city recently remover the 49,
OOO-all able-bodied, unmarried per-

Eighteen hungry persons took mat

ordering and eating 1896 worth of
food at a downtown restaurant and
telling employees to charge it to the
city. The fifteen men and three
women, who said they were mem
bers of the association of unemploy-
ed on direct and work relief were
told by Manager j. H. Pratt: II hope

Sidney T. RoWley, assistant city
relief commissioner, said next weeks
supply of Federal surplus food was
the 'lowest yet" although ample
food is expected to be available for

American manufacturers and ex-

equipment and materials would
bear in mind the governments
policy of cOndemning "unprovoked
bOmbings" Of civilians.
The brief statement was issued
after the President had conferred
with Secretary Hull in his White
House study. 1t followed, too, presi-
dental appeals to Finland and
Russia not to bomb civilian popu-
lations
The statement follows:
The American government and
the American people have for some
time pursued policy of whole
hearted condemning the unpro-
voked bombing and machine gun
ming Of civilian population from
the air. This government hopes, to
the end that such unprovoked
bombings shall not be given ma
terial encouragement, in the light
of the recent recurrence Of such
acts, that American manufacturers
and exporters of airplanes, aero
nautical equipment and materials
essential to airplane manufacture
will bear this fact in mind before
negotiating contracts for the ex-
portation Of these articles to nations
obviously guilty Of such unprovoked
