Wolf and Coyote Bounty Funds
 Are Exhausted

Money appropriated for the balance of the fiscal period end ing June 30, 1857, for the pay ment of bounties on wolves and coyotes has been exhausted, ac- cording to an announcement by H Tug h J. Wade, Treasurer of Alaska.
 Hunters whose claims were filed in the Treasurer's office during May and thereafter thru June 30 1857 will have to wait until sometime in January 1859 for their bounty payments.
 Wolf and coyote hunting has been more intensive the past two months than ever in the memory of the oldest employee of the Treasurer's office. Since April 1, 1857 wolf and coyote bounty claims totaling $27,2 were re- ceived and paid It has not been unusual during the past two months for the Treasurer's office to receive claims in excess of $1 ,000 for one hunter
 The 1857 legislature made a de- ficiency appropriation of $22,50O for wolf and coyote claims re- ceiVed in excess of the monies ap- propriated by the 1855 legisla- ture, and also appropriated an additional sum of $12,288 for the three month period April 1 to June 30, 1857, but the kill has been so great that all this money has been expended, with only one-half of the period for which it was appropriated having elapsed.
 On July l, an additional sum of money will be available to pay bounties on wolves and coyotes killed on pr after July l. The certified claim, or affidavit, must show that the animals were killed on or after July l, 1857.
 The Treasurer's office, accord- ing to Wade, has this difficulty every fiscal period and he has repeatedly requested larger ap- propriations but it seems that the more money appropriated the greater the kill.

Really Burned Up By Hot Sauce, Man CooIs Off in Jail

PHILADELPHIA LP-TWo much hot sauce really burned up James Charleston, but the police cooled him off in jail on charges of as sault, threats to do bodily harm, and carrying a concealed deadly weapon.
 Charleston, 38, showed up at Mark Soo's restaurant at 2:30 am. Friday and ordered shrimp and rice. He complained it lacked seasoning and demanded sauce. Soo brought a bottle of stuff with plenty of bite. Charleston, mis- taking it for something milder, emptied the bottle on his food, and waded in. Then he exploded.
 As Soo told police, Charleston chased him with a knife, hurled chairs at him and pursued him upstairs where Soo grabbed his automatic pistol and fired few wild shots. Charleston ran out of the restaurant and practically in to the arms of the police.
 The concealed weapon Charles ton was accused of carrying was the knife he used in the attempt ed attack.

Chiang Kai-Shek
 Takes Blame for Anti-U.S. Rioting

TAIPEI, Formosa, R-Presi- dent Chiang Kai-shek took on his own shoulders today the blame for anti-American riots in Taipei.
 He said they brought dishonor to his country, The Nationalist Chinese leaders radio broadcast to his people was the traditional . Chinese acceptance of blame at the top when things go wrong.
 The Generahssimo said he spoke with a heavy heart" of the violence May A that injured 13 Americans and wrought heavy damage to the US. embassy. The riots grew out of resentment at a US. tcOurt-martial acquittal of an American sergeant charged with shooting to death a Chinese he said was a peeping Tom.
 Despite the riots, Chiang said, 4NoI1OI1dI1Sl SIl1l1d COIlllIlu6S IO DS a friend to the United States. He declared a firm stand must be made against attempts to endan- ger relations between the two countries.
 Chiang said an understandable sense of indignation over the ser geant's acquittal got out of hand because those whose duty it was to maintain law and order failed to take proper precautionary measures at the outset.
 Meanwhile, in Tokyo, the self titled leader of a Formosan inde- pendence movement who claims 30,00o followers, said the acquit- tol of MS Robert Reynolds of Cobra, Md, which ignited the riots, was proper and just"
 Dr. Thomas Liao, head of the exiled provisional government in Japan, laid the blame for the rioting on Nationalist Chinese and said no Formosan natives were involved.

Sinatra, DiMaggio Sued For $2OO,OOO Damages In Wrong Door Raid

LOS ANGELES, R-Frank Si- natra, Joe DiMaggio and seven other men have been sued for S200,000 damages over the wrong door, raid aimed at Marilyn Monroe.
 Mrs. Florence Kotz Ross, 39, a secretary, alleges in a suit filed Friday that the mistake crash-in at her apartment caused her acute hysteria.
 A private detective told a state senate committee Investigating his profession earlier this year that the raid was staged at DiMag- gio's direction. He said Miss Mon roe, then recently divorced from the former New York Yankees baseball star, was the target of the raid, but that she was visiting an actress friend in another apart ment in the building.
 Mrs. Ross complaint said she was asleep about II pm. Nov. 5, 1856, when five or six men bat tered down the door. She said she thought they might be burg lars or persons intending to kill her.

leg. temporary loss Of vision or difficulty
in speech.
The study Of this major medical prob
lem has been sadly neglected until recent
years, largely because Of the defeatist
attitude that little or nothing could be
done to help the unfortunate victims. An
estimated million people suffer strokes
each year in the United States, and
approximately l70,O 900 Of these die.
Many are elderly, but more than 1900
are under IS = some even in their third
and fourth decades. Many Of those who
survive require from one 10 three per-
sons to nurse and care for them.
Thousands are confined to institu-
tons, and all told, the emotional, physi-
cal and economic damage to the indi-
viduals, their families and communities
IS almost beyond calculation.
Only recently did we start 10 learn that
treatment for some patients can be very
helpful. About ten years ago patients
whose strokes were due to clois, either
forming in the brain vessels themselves
(flSogibD. or those which lodge in the
brain from elsewhere teHlbOiD, were first
treated BY members Of the Vascular
Team Of the Cornell Medical College
with drugs which prevent clottine.
These drugs are dangerous If used
when hemorrhaee is present but when
this IS ruled out. their value in interrupt
ing series Of little strokes" OF the early
stages Of slow strokes seems very prom
ising. The risk Of occurrences after the
first or second stroke has been reduced
to about one-fourth by the continuous
use Of anticoagulants, and some patients
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-10-27

have now been protected in this way for
more than ten years.
Some types Of strokes due to hemorr-
haee can now be treated by surgery,
especially when the body temperature IS
lowered. as by immersion in ice. This
work Is still in the experimental phase,
but il IS another reason for more hope in
this important area.
Rehabilitation by the retaining Of
muscles should be started carly, as soon
as the patient IS over the first shock. This
win prevent muscular contractions and
other unnecessary complications - and
give him motivation for getting well.
We're Gaining
The psychological aspects Of rehabili-
tatiOn are important, too. A hopeful.
optimistic attitude must be adopted By
all who come in contact with the patient.
He watches for every indication Of en-
courasemeni or encouragement, and his
moods often depend on the feeling he
detects in those around him.
The most exciting development In this
field b the great change Of heart which
has taken place among physicians. as
hope replaces pessimism. Much new
research IS going on, and already We
have been rewarded. II the process Of
hardening Of the arteries can be pre-
vented, and we seem to be approaching
this possibility. great many strokes win
be eliminated or greatly delayed.
Even without this key step, however.
patients today can look forward to more
help in both the prevention and the
treatment Of strokes.

days. These vary great deal, including
such symptoms as numbness or weaken
