new LABOR ERA
seen BY BANKER
Frank A. Vanderlip Says
Liberal Policies in Britain
Are Reflected Here.

New York. May 8.-Improvements
IN the labor situation In Great Britain
since last February have amounted
almost to a complete ''rightabout."
Frank A. Vanderlip. president of the
National City Bank, declared in an
Interview with the United Press to-
day. Vanderlip recently arrived from
Europe.
America. in his belief, will follow
closely these economic adjustments,
Vanderlip said, adding: "Amicable set
Elements of disputes between labor and
capital in Britain is the only way the
country can be saved from the radical
ism sweeping Europe, sparks from
which, II sufficiently famed, would
inevitably reach across the Atlantic.
Il found only 10 or Is per cent of
the laborites radical to the point of
Bolshevism." said Vanderlip. "I be-
lieve the relationship between British
labor and capital Is fundamentally
the most important in the whole
world.
Through the courtesy of the gov
ernment I interviewed many members
OF the Cabinet, labor leaders and en-
ployers. The business world in Great
Britain seems to have made UP its
mind that the way to prevent whole
sale experiments in naturalization
Is to meet In the most liberal way
labor's reasonable aspirations. includ-
ing better hours and a greater voice
in working conditions. That there
will be some great steps toward ma
tionalization of coal mines generally
is a foregone conclusion. The nation
alization OF railways also seems prob
able. Adjustments are still going on
in Britain. Greater ones are in sight.
American labor will follow them
closely. They point toward LIBERAL
ization in treating the labor question
far beyond the present conception. On
the other hand they indicate trained
leadership of labor. recognition of
economic conditions. and a disposition
to confirm them. which gives the
greatest hope of sound senttlement."

TO PLACE NC-4
IN SMITHSONIAN
Government Museum tc
Preserve First Plane
To Cross Atlantic.

The NC-4. the first airplane to cross
the Atlantic, probably will be depos-
tied in the Smithsonian Institution
for permanent exhibition as one OF
the nations most valuable historic
relics.
1t will be placed in the National
Museum and take its place beside the
first hsavier-than-air flying machine
ever flown in this country, the first
steam locomotive. the first cotton
gin. the first typewriter. and other
famous ''firsts.''
Already the National Museum has
a sizable airplane exhibition. Includ.
ed in 1t is't the steam flying machine
which. on May 6. 1896. at Quantico
Va. made the first successful flight
ever made by a heavier-than-air fly
ing machine.
This machine weighs only twenty
cended to a height Of seventy feet and
twenty-five miles an hour.
LangIey's Experiments.
Also there are the three small ex-
perimental machines designed by
Samuel Pierpont Langley. which few

operator, and the original Langley
machine built at the request OF Presi-
dent Mckinley. which fell into the
Potomac. owing to defective launch
ing mechanism.
Next Is shown the original Wright
airplane. which was the first machine
purchased and put into practical use
by the army in 1909. A sample of the
Curtiss JN4. now used on all United
States flying fields for the instruc-
tion Of aviators. Is hung alongside II
to show the development in military
aviation in ten years.
Other Planes.
The Handley-Page battle plane first
completed in this country is the most
recent addition to this representative
collection. It Is fitted with Liberty
motors. and to give the public a closer
view of the famous airplane engine
one Of them is exhibited in a glass
case.
For purposes OF comparison, two
French airplanes - Voisin night
bomber and a Caudron reconnoiterins
machine-are included in the exhibit.

A noted Cincinnati chemist dis

called IL fretzone and little quarter
ounce bottles can now be obtained
from any drug store for a few cents
You simply apply several drops
OF freezone upon a tender corn or

No pain, not a bit of soreness,

Unexplained Enormous Heat.

The source of the enormous guam
tity of heat stored in the interior
of the earth is not known. Some
writers think this heat is due to
the disintegration of radium in the
rocks; others think that the earth
is a cooling globe, radiating heat
developed during condensation from
the original nebula, and others think
that it is due to various causes,
such as radioactivity, chemical reac-
tions, impacts from meteorites, or
condensation from nebulous materi-
al.
Some Interesting Results of Deep
Drilling.
The strata of lime, slate, and
sand penetrated by these deep wells
were originally sediments deposited
from ocean water. A bed of ocean
water was actually found in the
Geary well at a depth of $3.50
feet. DR.. l. c. White, state geolo-
gist Of West Virginia, with whom
the United States geological survey
is cooperating in these investiga-
tons, is of the opinion that this
water is fossil ocean, imprisoned
since mid-Paleozoic time. Interest
ing evidence in regard to the geo.
logic history of the formations was
obtained by Charles Butts, of the
United States geological survey, who
identified number of fossils from
depths of 1857 to 1856 feet in
the Golf we'll The material from
the Lake well has not yet been
fully examined. 1t may be posi-
Bile by examining the fossils to
determine the geologic ages and
horizons of the beds penetrated and
so to estimate the depth at which
the Clinton sand should lie beneath
the bottom of this well. The well
probably does not pass through more
than one-half the total thickness of
sediments in this region.

During the last few years the
Hope Natural Gas company and the
Peoples Natural Gas company, both
of Pittsburgh, Pa, have been drill
ing deep wells in Northern West
Virginia and Southwestern Pennsyl-
vania to find deeper oil-bearing and
gas-bearing sands, their object be-
ing to reach, if possible, the horizon
of the rich Clinton sand of Ohio,
which, according to DR.. l. c. White.
the state geologist of West Vir-
ginia, should be found in this re-
gion at depts between 1000 and
5000 feet.
Drilling fo- Deep Oil and Gas.
The first exceptionally deep well
thus drilled, the R. A. Geary well.

pany, is about four miles northwest
of Mcdonald, Pa, and about twenty
miles southwest of Pittsburg. The
mouth of the well is about 1850
feet above sea level. The well PEN

last of the usual gas sands in this
region. at a depth of 1871 feet.

Four Deepest Wells In the Would.
Named in order of depth, the
four deepest wells in the world are
the Lake, 1879 feet; the Golf,
1886; well at Czuchow, Germany,
7,34s, and the Geary, 7,24S. The
two deepest wells in the world are
therefore the Lake and the Golf,
the Lake surprising the German
well by the large margin of PSI
feet. In comparison with these
great depths, other depths reached
by wells or mines sunk in the crust
of the earth are rather insignificant.
The deepest mine in the world IS
shaft No. Of the Tamarack mine,
in Houghton county. Michi., which
has reached a depth of $500 feet.
Other shafts of the Tamarack COM
pany and of the Calumet & Hecla
mine, in the Lake Superior region,
reach depths between 1000 and
5000 feet. Three shafts in the
Prizbram silver mines, in Austria,
have reached depths of about $500
feet. The Victoria quartz mine. at
Bendigo, Australia, is 4,300 feet
deep. A number of shafts in the
Transvaal gold region of South At
RIGA have been sunk to depths of
about 1000 feet.
Limits to Depths of Mines and
Wells.
The depth to which a mining
shaft can be sunk is limited by the
heat of the rocks, as the tempera-
ture at a depth of a mile in nearly
all parts of the earth is so high
that workmen cannot live in it, even

The Great Rule Of EQUITY.

We set up for reformers, declaim at
the wickedness of the age, and are
all for suppressing and furnishing it
by vigorous laws; and yet are unwill-

be put upon our own freedoms. This
shows how far we are from observing
that great rule of equity, the loving
our neighbor as ourselves; and from
melting out to others the same meas
ure which we are content should be
measured to US again.-ThomaS 8
