Boundaries Changed

The peace did queer things m Aus- trian and Bohemian boundary lines. Petschek found that business prob- ably would be more proﬁtable out- side Bohemia. He invaded the Ger- man industry-tool: over several rich holdings in the Brandenburg ﬁelds, among them the Oehringen works, and the rich "Ilse" and “Nieclerlau- sltzer" enterprises. The "Ilse" works he immediately stepped up from 18 cars to 1.000 cars a day. He increased the output of the others in a lesser degree. ‘

Petschelrs 45 millions by no means comprise the total wealth of the family. Ignaz makes his headquart- ers in Ausslg. The Prague branch of the familypossesses a fortune esti- mated at about $60,000,000. It is di- vidcd, however, among some six branches, so that Ignaz remains far and away the richest individual.

The meteoric rise of Thomas Bata, shoe manufacturer, has-turned the spotlight on his huge factories as being among the most valuablein the country. They are. But Batals fortune still must take second place to that of energetic, sharp-eyed Pet- schek, who counts among his hob- bies a children's hospital, a tubercu- losis sanatorium, and many a secret philanthropic gift.

DOCTORS REVEAL ' GOITER STUDIES

KANSAS CITY, Mm, April 26.- Causes, symptoms and treatment of goiter-that unique ailment which baffled medical science so long- were studied in their every phase by 200 specialists from the United States and Canada in annual convention here.

The American Association for the Study of Goiter defined the disease as an enlargement, or abnormal ex- citement of the thyroid gland.

It may make the victim unduly emotional. They became nervous and easily excited, and in a few years may burn themselves out from the excessive expenditure of energy, even as does a motor idling at high speed.

The cure is comparatively easy, Dr. J. K. McGregor, of Ontario, Canada. told the convention. In fact, goiter therapy was one of the most EUCOGSSIUI in modern surfgery, he declared. In seven years the mortality rate was reduced from about five to one per cent of tl cases treated, he pointed out. D.-.. Rienhoﬂ estimated that so per cent' of his cases had been successfully treated.
