Spectography, petrography, se- rology and such may just send the reader to the dictionary, but it already has been proved that they can send the saboteur to the pen. Petography, for example, is the business of analyzing and classify- |ing soils, minerals, dirt and debris. Into this classification too falls the microscopic study of oils and greases to determine if any foreign substance has been introduced to damage the machinery it is sup- |posed to lubricate. One case where petrography} played its part recently was the identification of iron filings in a big| tractor that was shipped to Aus- |tralia. « After that, locating the source of the filings was up to other FBI investigators, but knowing what it was narrowed the search. Not long ago, a Navy experiment- 1al plane was discovered to have |certain aluminum alloy fittings which had been partially sawed through. Into the laboratory came the fittings and 176 hacksaw blades and the scientists went to work. In a few days, they came up with the report that only 17 of the hacksaws AL, DARK man is coming * AND IS HE A SMooTHIE, AND HANDSOME CHARLOTTE GREENWOOD SHELDON LEONARD « STANLEY 2 Editions World News Sabolage Esplonage Is Inevitable But FBI Is | Right On Ihe Job Now could possibly have been used on the job. That didn't solve the case, but here again it narrowed the search to such extent that the agents in the field could work swiftly on what otherwise would have been a painfully slow inves- tigation. In the case or a train wreck, a rail had been twisted out of place and painted black so that it would not reflect the engine headlight and reveal it was out of place. It was the FBI crime laboratory that analyzed the paint on that rail and found it to be identical with two jackets found hidden in a water hole nearly a quarter of a mile rm:.

If'and when the owners of those jackets are apprehended, a power- ful bit of testimony will be thrown into the case by the FBI scientist who made that analysis. In the laboratory, too, chemists study acids and materials to dam- age them. The document section devotes its time to documents, checks, codes and cyphers. The search for flour- escent invisible writing, using ultra- violet light and the use of ultra- violet and infrared photography for the restoration of secret and oblit- erated writing are just phases of this section’s extensive work but it is one that makes the task of sabo- tage and spying far more difficult than it was.
