WOMEN HAKE LANS - INTHE FAR WEST Filteen Feminine Mflltm in " Five Pacilic States San Francisco, Jan. 24. (®—Ida- To, one of the pioneer atates in the granting of voting privileges to women, is the only far western commonwealth which does net have a feminine member of its legisia- ture this year. Furthermore, the only state office held by a woman — that of state superintendent ot pnbnc instruction — faces a move- ment for abolition. Utah and Washington, ¥ith five women legislators each, head the list of western states allotting law- making seats to the sex once allud- od to as “weaker.” Washington is the only one to have a woman state senator. She is Reba J. Hurn of Spokane, ' Utah has returned to the assem- bly Mrs, Anna T. Piercey, whose legislative experience began In 1919. She is the author of the state’s eight hour law, and played an active part' in mothering the woman- suffrage bill through the special session of that year. It is notable that in the mountain bul- wark of republicanism in federal politics, all five of the assembly women are democrats. California, which once had as many as four women members of its house, now has only one — Eleanor Miller, republican, of Pasa- dena. Novada, famed for the liberality of its divorcc and gambling Iaw, rc-elected its onc woman lawmaker, Mrs. Ethel B. McGuire, and gave seats to two more, Mrs. Lillle V. Pinger and Mrs. Nova Waters. Q.cgon, like California, has but & single woman legislator, Dorothy NecCullough, Lee, representing Mult- nomah county. / Women of 1daho are organizing to oppose elimination of the only state position that their sex now holds and to whicn Mrs. Myrtle R. Davis was eclected to succeed Mrs. Mabello M. Allen. Opposition to the office is not based on any objection to women in polt- tics but on the belief that the office functions partly duplicate those of the commissioner of education. The Tax Payers' Association urges its abandonment on the ground of economy. The Grange, however, while op- posing duplication, has expressed preference for retention of the superintefdency as against the commissioner as the former is an elective office and the latter filled by appointment.

The |operation will be in the nature of | both conversion and consolidation. | One object of the loan will be to convert the threc billion franc loan {secured on the receipts of the to- bhcco monopoly. This loan was issued in 1926 at u high rate of interest. The new loan will also be used to consolidate national defense issues. The price on the new loan has not been fixed but is expected to be such as to represent a yield of five per cent. The operation will involve no money payment being merely an exchange of securities. The operation is expected to have an effect on the market, howevcr, by sending down the price of mon- ey. It is also claimed that the new loan will represent considerable economy both to the sinking fund committee and the treasury and | will accelerate amortization of the public debt.

LIGHT SUBSTANCE IN HIGHER PEAKS Science Explains Curious Fact in Make Up of Mountains Cincinnati, Jan. 24 (®—The high- er the mountain the less its weight —that is, proportionately, on the principle of a cork in the water. The earth's crust resembles the water In this curious snalogy, and the tendency is for high mountains, like high riding corks, to be made of womething comparatively light. The light weight in the mountain ia not, however, wholly like that of the cork, due to the substance of which the mountain is made. Geo-| logists are finding that the force of garvity, when it comea to affecting. the welghts of things as big as amountains, is not the unchanging force that the wcales of men have credited it with being. Bome of these tricks of gravity are explained by Dr. Walter H. Bucher, professor of historical ge- ology, graduate school of arts and nciences, University of Cincinnati. One I8 a fact long known, that the intensity of gravity varles from point to point on the earth's surface. It the earth’s crust compriscl {rock musscs of a density every- where etjual, says Dr. Bucher, the forces of gravity would bo expected to be equal at all points. The ob- scrved fact is that they are not equal. Whether density explains all the difference may be cuestioned. For ecxample, Dr. Bucher points out, high mountains bear evidence of once having heen part of deep seas, where, generally. density of rock masses is greater than of land rockn. Varying degrees of pressure that | tend to force upward Jighter roclks, and eruptive heat that melts strains out the lighter elempats and floats them higRest, complicate the problem of describing exactly the origins of mountains. Dr. Bucher says that deficiencies in gravity probably will prove onc of the forces, and that thesec force: can be computed better after meas- urcments are made of submarin topography and gravitics. Then hc hopes that the conditions that mak~ oceans will be better understood as well as the phenomenon of moun- height rises. 40 Driven Out by Bristol, R. L, Fire Providence, R. I., Jan. 24.—(M— Forty persons, 31 of them children, i were driven to tho streets scantily clad shortly after midnight, when fire broke out in a six family house at 5 Coggeshall strect. Bristol. Antonio Columbo, while lying in bed reading a novel, smelled smoke. Upon investigation he found a large plle of kindling ablaze in the cellar. The building filled rapidly with | smoke and many of the tenants on the third foor made their way to safety with difficulty. The town had been without water service for four heurs just preced- ing the fire, while changes were be- | ing made in water mains. Pressure had been restored a few minutes be- fore the alarm was sounded. Sparks from a defective chimney were blamed for the fire. No estimate of damage as yet ob- tainable.

Plans for the project, which ex- ceed the proportions of any similar luboratory planned by any nation, arc now before the house appropri- ations committec in an item re- questing an appropriation for $52 060 in 1930 by the national advisory | committete for aeronautics. | A full-sized afrplane could bhe placed in the new wind tunnel to provide a detalled study of forces cting upon the plane in full flight without taking it off the ground. Wind tunnels have played an im- | portant part in the development of safer airplanes, but heretofore toy | like models have been used for the | tests, Experts have discovered that er- vors eomctimes as high as 10 per’ cent are incurred through use of models instead of actual airplargs. However, they are not willing to send pilots and plahes into the air [to test some new and radically un- | conventional device unless they ar certain that the risk to pilot dnl plane s not too great “At present the safe flight of an | afrplane is dependent too much up- on ability of the pilot,” Dr Joseph 8. Ames, chairman of the national told & sub-commitiee of the hous: appropriations committee, “Th problemus of better stability and control must be rolved. A larg: majority of fatal accidents are the result of airplanes nearing a stall- ing speed, where the present types of control are ineffective. We can- not expect to study these violent maneuvers while in actual flight, where the dangers are very grea‘ and error is apt to creep in if wu work out our problem with models. We must have a wind tuunel labo- ratory in which an airplane with 5o foot wing span can be tested as if | in actual flight.” ! In commenting upon the success of the 20 foot propeller research tunnel now in operation Dr. Ames told the committee that the savings made possible in one year to users and manufacturers of airplancy through the development in the tunnel of a new cowling for air cooled engines would be sufficient to pay for the present tunnel.
