AN lMPL0SIoN.
Il Is the Opposite Of an Explosion and
Less Familiar.

Il is the Opposite Of an Explosion and
Less Familiar.
Every one knows what an explosion
Is, but its opposite. an implosion. is
less familiar, At great depths in the
sea the conditions are favorable for
its production. at $500 fathoms the
pressure is. roughly speaking, two and
a half tons to the square inch-that is
to say. several times greater than the
pressure exerted by the steam upon
the piston Of powerful engine.
An interesting experiment 10 illus
trate the enormous force OF this deep
sea .pressure was made on the Alba
tross, n government vessel engaged in
deep sea exploration.
A thick glass tube several inches IN
length full Of air was Theoretically
sealed at both ends. This was wrap
ped in flannel and placed In one OF the
wide copper cylinders used to protect
deep sea thermometers when they are
sent down with the sounding appa-
ratus. The copper cylinder had holes
bored In it, so that the water had free
access inside, round the glass. The
case was then sent down TO a depth
Of 1000 fatboms and drawn up again.
It was found that the cylinder was
bulged and bent inward, just as If 1t
had been crumbled inward by being
violently squeezed. The glass tube
itself. within its flannel wrapper was
reduced to fine powder, almost like
snow. The glass tube, 1t would seem.
as it slowly descended. held out long
against the pressure, but at last sud,
denly gave way and was crushed by
the violence of the action to a lne
powder
This process. exactly the reverse of
an explosion, is termed an i,lploslon.

NEW IDEA IN LABOR FIELD.
Colorado Building Trades Plan State
Organization.


Colorado, always coming to the
front with something new sometimes
startling in the labor field. now pro-
poses the organization Of state
building trades council. Building
trades councils covering a city or the
cities and towns In a compact area
OF certain limits are quite common,
and some years ago national building
trades council was organized, though
1t was not very successful. But Colo
RADIO unionists are the first to try to
draw all the building trades unions
into an organization which will direct
the affairs Of the many trades EN-
ployed in that industry.
In some of the towns Of Colorado
there Is absence Of organization In one
or more OF the building trades due to
the small number Of men usually en-
ployed or to other causes. The pro-
posed state council plan makes pro-
vision for dealing with all such con-
ditions.
The purpose is to send out from
the state council, which viii have its
headquarters in Denver, business
agents who viii make regular visits
to all the cities and towns In the state.
Efforts will be made to equalize wages
and working conditions and to bring
the whole state up to the Denver
standard. In this way the men who
60 from Denver and the other strong
union towns can be kept In line.
Unions can be organized where nd
visable, and members can be recruited
and attached to the nearest union.
To limited degree the plan has
already been tried In Colorado. Sey-
eral trips have been made over the
state by business agents of the Plumb
ers' union Of Denver, and in every in
stance the result has bsen increase In
membership, and in some cases wages
and working conditions in the towns
visited have been improved.
The present plan is to get every
building trade TO cooperate and to con
tribute funds to carry out the idea
to its full extent AT least one bust
ness agent will be kept at this kind
Of work all the time
