uA\ DAVEY ATTACKS MELLON ON 1085 Scores His Reported Effort to Retain 200 ““Useless” Treasury Emploves. By the Ascociated Press Representative Davey. Dgmocrat ©Ohio, who recently ticized Federal eniployes as shirk on the job, renewed his attack in a letter to Sec retary Mellon. made public today, in | which he seeks information concern- ing a reported effort of the Treasury chief to find jobs within his depart ment for 200 emploves. whose posi tions must be abolished, due to re- duced appropriations. Why should vou seek to keep useless emploves on the Federal roll.” he asks, “when there ready tens of thousands moi eral employes than could be j by the most liberal interpretation of the public need? “How can you possibly justify yvour action as a business man who is tem porarily acting as a hizh public of- ficial? “In view of the fact that there has|" been an increase of 20,000 civilian em ployes of the Government in the last two vears. and in view of the fac the normal expenses of the ment are increasing. what pos: _ planation have you to offer for an : tempt to keep even 200 useless em: ployes that even a liberal Congre sought to separate from the pay ro “Do you run your private business on such an extravagant and uneco. nomic basis? “The overburdened America have a rignt to ask an counting of vour stewardship and of every other executive official in this and related matters, in view of the enormous annual waste of vast un mecessary millions for the employment eless civilian emploves. a business man vou must cer tainly agree that it is a moral and economic wrong to tax a people more <han enough for the necessary and ef- ficient administration of government.” TODAY'S ~A]Q(USEMENT& Washington Auditorium. €rin,” grand opera, at 8:15 p.m. National — “Kid Boots,” musical comed at 8:20 p.m. Poli's—"Carmencita and the Sol- dier,” Moscow Theater Musical Studio, at 8 p.m. taxpayers of Lohen- A Great Little Guy,” p.m. Wardman _ Park—"Not So comedy, at 8:30 p.m. Keith’s— Charlotte vaudeville, at 2:15 and 8:15 p.m Earle—Vaudeville and pictures, con- tinuous from 1 to 11 p.m. Strand—"Yip Yip _ Yaphankers,” Fast,” wvaudeville, continuous from 12:30 to 11 | pm.

Prof. Hopkins found it ex tremely difficult to separate the new element, illinium, from neodynium, another element, which masked its presence. New Lines Found. Fro theoretical considerations, < and chemists have predicted Just what spectral flags, as it were, the new element should fly when it is detected with spectroscope and X-ray. And Prof. Hopkins bases his claim of discovery on many new lines in the spectrum, prominent bands in the ab- sorption pectrum in the expected po- sition and lines in the X-ray spectrum in the predicted position The element is named after the university at which it was discovered and its symbol will be the first two letters of its name, II. N Little practical use for illinium can be predicted. as it is just another of a large family of very closely related and much mixed up rare earths. Some of these rare earth elements make up the incandescent part of gas mantles in evervday use, that actually contained in such mantles. Two Yet Unknown. Now all but two of the 92 funda- mental materials of the universe, the chemical elements, have been dis- covered. The two still missing are numbered 85 and 87.
