Ly NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1930. CHINESE DECLARE TOWN CAPTURED Report Chiang Kai-Shek Has Taken Chengchow Nanking, China,. Oct. 7 (/) — Na- tionalist government military head- quarters tonight claimed its forces under President Chiang Kaishek had captured Chengchow from northern rebel troops commanded by General Feng Yu-Hsiang. Although the claim was not veri- fied it was regarded as probably| true. If so, it no doubt means the end of the present civil war. Chengchow, important railroad city in northern Honan province, was the headquarters of Feng, who for weeks had held his ground against many determined national- ist attacks. Also Take Konanfu The government announcement | said nationalist forces also had tak- en Konanfu, 50 miles west of Chengchow on the Halchow-Tung- | Kwan railway. Feng was reported | retreating with a majority of his| 100,000 soldiers to a point north of the Yellow River. An end to the present conflict has been expected ever since the recent intervention of Manchuria, whose troops occupied Peiping and Tient- | sin, forcing the retirement of Yen Hei-Shan, governor of Shansi pro- vince, from the revolutionary pic- ture. Yen and Feng were the prin- cipals in the northern rebel move- ment. After Yen's withdraway Feng| continued to hold his ground in northern Honan despite an an-| nouncement by President Chiang | that the rebel general had expressed | a desire to retire and surrender his army to the nationalists whom he had been fighting. | | Gunboat Fired On ‘Washington, Oct. 7 (#) — The U. | S. gunboat Panay was fired on early today by Chinese on the right bank | of the Yangtze River, two miles be- low Havoc Rocks Beacon A message to the navy from Ad- miral Charles B.

EMPIRE TRIBUNAL PLAN DISCUSSED Disputes Between Dominions fo Be Dealt With Tondon, Oct. T (P— of proposals for an empire tribunz to deal with disputes between do- minions was begun today by a com- mittee of the imperial conference, headed by Lord Chancellor Sankey. The empire court, which could hold its sessions in any part of the realm, will not replace the privy council, and therefore will still have 2 loophole for criticism by the Trish | Free state. 1t was understood that secret dis- cussions in committee had resulted | in several important decisions to be | ‘aid before the plenary session of | the conference tomorrow These decisions were said to be in | the direction of even greater free- dom for the dominions from imperial control than they are already én- jJoying, tending perhaps towards vir- tually complete independence at the discretion of their respective admin- istrations. the shooting Friday eve- Canonicus Branch Gets Reports of Convention | Canonicus branch of the Inter-| national Sunshine socicty met Mon- | day afternoon at the South church parlors, with Mrs. Nelliec Marsh presiding in the absence of MM George Corbin.

FURS ARE WARFIER WHEN WORN INSIDE (Robot Makes Test and Finds Natural Way Best New York, Oct. (P —When the wind blows 14 miles an hour it is just 4 times as cold to the bare skin still air at the same tem- perature. Contrary to teachings of some scientists and a popular belief, fu) is not warmest with the hair turne inside. Certain clothing actually makes one cooler in still air than none a all! These and other discoveries abott warmth of clothing are reported to the American Society for Testing Materials by Ephraim Freedman, dircctor of the bureau of standards or R. H. Macy and company. They were found with a new kind of robot which looks like an elon- gated tin can and radiates heat ex- actly like an unclothed human body. It can be dressed and then made to | record the warming properties of its suitin This robot has a bronze skin, and for nerdes a wire-thin 400-inch-long | copper, xvlene-filled thermometer, which is wound spirally around the | outside of its body. Its insides are an electrical heat- ing apparatus and it records the exact amount of energy, in watts, ne ary to maintain its bronze skin at body temperature. It lives in a big box where the 20 above zero to 90 in the shade. When this robot is stripped, and the temperature drops one degree in still air, it takes nearly half a v:att energy, that is, about one-four- teen-hundredth of a horsepower, to maintain body temperature. But for the same drop in a 14.2 mile wind it takes more than five times as much energy Wrapped in Alaska sealskin, with the fur inside, the robot takes twice as much energy to withstand out- side cold as when the fur is turned outside. This means that with the fur the sealskin is but half as warm. In caim air duck and gauze were actually cooler than complete nak- edness, as more energy was requir- ed to keep up the robot's normal temperature when wrapped in these fabrics. This was a surprise. “While the readings taken with nominally still air,” Freedman re- ported, “may not be as reliable as those taken with wind velocities the method of test approximates conditions often encountered in confined spaces, such as vaults, cold storage chambers or non-ventilated rooms." The differenc in in warming power between a good hlanket and a cov- ering of gauze is equivalent to the heat of two ordinary size house electric hgl\(i Jumps Off One Auto, Is Hit by Another Henry Lamar, 16, of 44 Erwin place, was struck and knocked down at the corner of East Main and Main streets shortly after 1 o'clock today | when he jumped from the running hoard of one car directly into the path of another driven by Julius Gross of 74 Lafayetic street, accord- ing to a report filed at police head- this afternoon.

The truck which was proceeding in an easterly direction at the time of the accident, crashed into the left rear side of Schmidt's car, causing slight damage. Officer Doty reported that there was no cause for arrest and attrib- uted misjudgment on the part of both drivers as the cause of the col- lision, ROAD PROGRANS BEFORE EXPERTS Congress of Builders From 60 Countries Opens ‘Washington, Oct. 7 UP—World's road building programs were sub- mitted today to technical and ad- | ministrafive experts from 60 coun- tries attending the Sixth Interna ticnal Road congress.
