X-RAY
Is to Be Put TO Still Greater
Use in Practice OF,
f Medicine.


PARIS, April 26.-M. CODY, d
French scientist, has devised an APP
paratus for the application of the x
ray to microscopic work which is ex-
pected to have very important bear
ing on the study of the smaller or
ganisms. Many OF these organisms,
because of their capacity, have re-
sisted all attempts to obtain any ac-
curate knowledge of their functions.
To examine such an object prop
erly with a microscope 1t must be
sufficiently transparent to permit the
passage of light through it; exceed
ingly fine sections are taken of bod
les sufficiently large TO permit of this
being done, but there are many other
organizations too small to cut, and
not susceptible Of examination by the
X-ray for the same reason. In NJ
Goby's apparatus the object to be ex-
amined is placed on a Photographic
plate without the interposltion Of
black paper. Then by a special pro-
pess concentrated X-rays are pro-
jCcted on it, A life-size Photograph
which. on being enlarged in the ordi.
nary way, makes very complete
study possible is thus obtained.

morning and removed to the Monon.

"A comprehensive analysis of the in

author, featured today's general de-
bate on the tariff in the House. Mr..
Hull replied to comment upon pro-
visions of the tax, To the sugges-
tlon that 1t is clean legislation and
distinguishes between citizens OF
large means and those without par
ticular means, he said the purpose
was to reach those who
Have Escaped Taxes

He declared the masses Of the peo-
pie were paying most of the ss1S,-
100000 tariff taxes and most of the
state and local taxes.
Where, them he asked. as the
injustice Of requiring the receivers
of incomes exceeding $4,000 to
equalize in some measure

by contributing less than 500, OO0,-
900 to the federal treasury2" he
denied that there was sectionallsm
in the effect of the tariff. The tax,
he said, is fair, productive and cheap
of collection. No honest taxpayer
has anything to fear he said. Against
tho assertion that the tax was upon
thrift, industry and profit Hull re-
piled that the tariff was tax upon
consumption, want and even poverty
Victims of our intangible and in
visible tariff taxes with all their fea-
lures of
spoilation and PIunder
will welcome the proposed tax. The
receivers of large incomes should
prepare to accept 1t as "a permanent
tax for 1t has come to.stay.
