to tho living subject, The desired
shortening OF the time Of expo
sure was obtained by means of an
apparatus called reinforcing
screen. With this the time re-
quired to photograph a thigh was
reduced from two minutes to one
tenth of second!
Then attention was turned
again to increasing the sensibil-
ity Of the Photographic plates,
and three years ago NJ. Lumiere,
Of Paris. succeeded in producing
plates which. used in conjunction
with the reinforcing screens, re-
duced the time to third or
quarter OF what 1t had been be-

Even this did not satisfy those
who wished to photograph the
movements OF the internal organs,

A Question of Science
By EDGAR LUCIEN LARKIN.

Q. Has it been practically prov
Ell that ether does not exist? II
nothing exists but electrons and
these are relatively far apart, how
can the various waves of heat,
light and electricity, of such diff
ferent lengths, be transmitted
therein?
A. 1t has not been proved that
ether does or does not exist. But
the capital discovery of electrons
and the study of their properties,
these and more, seem to meet all
requirements Of physicists, in
transmission of space waves of
all known kinds, lengths and
rates of undulation, and their spe-
citic speeds. If electrons could
by any human means, impossible.
since they repel, be forced to lie
side by side, then a row one inch
long would contain 1900. 1000, 600

far detected by the most delicate

inch. Omit the twelve trillion.
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-10-25

then there would still be sevsr
hundred billion electrons IN the
linear inch. Then the line n
space is almost empty. But this
wave would find enough spsoa

Executive Suspension of
National Laws
By JOHN TEMPLE GRAVES.

IF the Panama Canal were now
open for the passage OF ves-
sells commercially there would
probably be no need for the pas
sage of resolution or a law re-
pealing the clause in the law that
exempts vessels in our coast
trade from the payment of Pana-
ma Canal tolls.
The executive branch of the
Government would in such case
find ample warrant and many
precedents for "suspending'' the
operation Of the law, Just as the
enforcement of the section that
allows a discount Of per cent on
imports in American vessels is
now suspended" until some
scheme can be Matched by which
the intent of Congress can be
thwarted.
The Democratic National Con-
vention last year adopted this,
among other declarations:
I'VE tnror the exemption from
tolls Of American ships en1nged
IN codst,otSe trade passing
through the Canal"
The Progresslves adopted
similar declaration. The Demo-
Gratis and Progressives poIled

votes cast at the last national
election, and these votes, If there
is anything in platform" decla-
rations, favored the exemption Of

on a Screen.

How many, for instance are
aware that the art OF N-ray pho
Biography has reached the instan-
taneous stage, and that II Is now
possible to take a cinematograph
picture showing the beating OF the
heart in a living man? And not
only the heart, but other internal
organs can be shown In moving
shadows upon a screen
When photography was invent
ed photographs Of the interior of
the body required exposures Of
several minutes, and often
quarter Of an hour. This was
found to be injurious to the sub
feet, for the N-rays have a burn
ing and disintegrating effect upon
living tissues, and long exposure
to them may produce disastrous
effects, or even death.
1t was evident that this Won
derful discovery could not be OF
much use to physicians unless
means were found to greatly
shorten the time OF exposure, and
so the necessary means were
sought. improvements OF the
tubes In which the rays are pro-
duced. and OF the sensitive plates
upon which the photographs are
made. soon resulted In notable
shortening of the exposures, They
were brought down to five min
utes for the thickest parts of the
body. three minutes for the head,
three minutes for the lungs, three
minutes for the legs, two minutes
for the arms and half minute
for the haucs.
But this was by no means SUI
ficlent. Seconds, and fractions OF
seconds. must be substituted for
minutes in order to make safe the
application of the marvellous rays

degrees OF speed in the passage Of
the successive plates in order that
their movements may be clearly
reproduced. Thus one or two
plates per second suffice for ra-
diographing the movements Of
the stomach and the intestines,
but the action of the heart is so
quick that not less than five ex-
posures per second must be made,
and a greater number Is desirable,
and will. unquestionably, be at
tanned.
The time is plainly coming
when we shall see upon a screen
the entire internal mechanism Of
a human body in full action.
Then physiology will be taught
by sight and not by books, and
physicians themselves will learn
things about these bodies of ours
of which, perhaps, they have new
err dreamed.
