FINAL SESSION IS BUSY. | metal Lead-Tempering Process Is Found After Centuries By the Associated Press CHICAGO, August 6.—Discovery of a process to harden and temper lead R. S. Dean and W. BE. Hudson, Chicago metallurgical engineers, was announced yesterday by the Western Electric Co., in whose plant at Haw- thorne the experiments were con- ducted. The new discovery, something that science has been trying to do since the ancient days of Egypt, comes after vears of patient research and experi- ment by Western Electric engineers. It involves the use of a small per- centage of alloy and treatment of the metal by a heating process. The new metal is sald to be three times as hard as the lead alloyed by | without heat treatment, and. with its strength more than tripled, it pos- sesses the quality of responding to heat treatment like steel. One of the many uses for the new is sheathing for telephone cables. The technical details of the dis- covery will be presented at the meeting of the American chemical society now being held in Los Angeles. Something Lacking. From the Boston Transcript.

By the Associated Press. AMMANFORD, Wales, August 6.— Another severe riot occurred last night in the anthracite region. where the miners are on strike. Several hundred strikers attacked a colliery with a view to compelling the pump- ers and other safety workmen to quit their posts. They were met by a strong party of police guarding the works and the fighting lasted nearly three hours. The police com- mander and 10 constables were se- verely wounded and many of the strikers badly hurt. The strikers almost overwhelmed the police, who charged with their clubs in the face of a veritable rain of missiles of all kinds. Reinforce- ments were hurried up to the police in motor cars, but the fighting con- tinued under the light of a blazing haystack which the strikers set on fire. A large crowd of sympathizers with the miners watched the battle. Something Wrong. A man in England was telling his little nlece about bird migration there, {and the child asked if the robins went away in Winter. * said her uncle, “the robin just nuts on a new red waistcoat and stays.’ The little one looked puzzled. “That can't be right, Uncle Tom,” she said. “I've seen heaps of pictures of robins with red walistcoats, but never one EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. ELEVEN POLICE HURT |VETERANS ARE DEFENDED. Mussolini Deplores Attack by Fas- cisti on Printing Plant. ROME, August 6 (P).—Premier Mussolini has stepped in and settled controversy between Deputy Del ix, leader of the Wounded War Veterans, and Deputy Roberto Farin acci, secretary of the Fascist party, rising from a recent attack by “ascists upon a printing plant mafn- ained by veterans at Parma. Mussolini telegraphed Del Croix vigorously deploring all forms of vio- lence against ex-service men. He sald the Parma incident could not be allowed to obscure three years of close intercourse between wounded veterans and the government, and Fascism in general, which he said “highly honors the aristocracy of those who made war sacrifices.” Del Croix replied he had no desire to enlarge upon the significance of the affair, and he hoped the premier's | severe | message would serve as a warning and as a protection against the repetition of such incidents.
