NEW TELEPHONE TRANSMITTER HAS SEPARATED GRANULES

Unusual sensitiveness and reliabiE- ty are claimed for new form of car bon telephone transmitter developed in France. The button Of the new microphone consists of carbon disk about an inch in diameter in the face of which are 22O or more tinyrecesses. The carbon granules, instead of being carried in the usual loose mass, are ars ranged with one granule resting in the mouth of each recess. The dia- phragm, of ordinary form, bears against all the granules. Such transmitter, it is declared, never packs, and maintains a uniform eff ciency. While most sensitive in the vertical position, when held horizon tally it has remarkable power.

LEVINE FINDS MIDDLE
 CLASS HARD TO MANAGE

In a recent address before the first All-Russian Congress at Moscow, NIX olaie Lenin, the Bolshevist Premier, declared, according to wireless dis patch from Moscow, that the most diff ficult internal problem confronting the Soviet Government is the gaining ot the adherence of well-to-do middle class" peasants. In criticizlng this class for exploiting the hungry work ers," Lenine said:
 "A peasant owner who has a mar gin of grain is accustomed to regard it as his own property, which he can sell freely. To sell the margin of grain in hungry country is to convert ones self into a speculator and an exploiter. The peasant who exploits is our en- emy. Not all the peasants by far un- derstand that free trade in grain is a crime against the State"
 Evidently the Bolshevist definition of "profiteering" is much more com prehensive than that generally accept ed in this country.

NEW SLIDE-COLORING METHOD
 GIVES UNUSUAL EFFECTS

A process of coloring lantern slides recently developed by an American scientist makes possible some novel projection effects, and has many ad- vantages over handtinting and color photography. A fine colloid film on the glass slide carries the image. Various dyes may be applied in mon ochrome or mosaic arrangement, or by superimposing a number of films, permitting optical demonstrations on the screen. One experiment is the projection of black and white ruled lines, 250 to the inch, on a screen sim ilarly ruled with alternate red and green lines. A lateral shift of .004 in. then apparently changes the color of the screen.

men to get on their feet and get their bearings, even though they are healthy and strong.
 Many have not yet decided into what business activity they will enter or even where they intend ultimately to live. Lots of boys from the farms will locate in cities and many city boys may move into the country. In the interim isn't it too much to expect that the mater of payment of their life insurance premiums should be- come paramount in their minds?
 "They must be given time to od- just themselves to new conditions; but we don't want them to give up their insurance, and under a recent ruling every one of them who has been in sured, and who is in as good health as at the time of his discharge, has eigh- teen months from the time of his dis charge from the service in which to reinstate his War Risk Insurance.
 "The payment of only two pemriums for reinstatement is now required to cover the month of grace during which the man was protected, the oth- CT the premium for the current month of reinstatement. The man, however, must state in his application that he is in as good health as when discharged or as he was when the grace period of his insurance expired, which is the later date"

Now that the government has com pleted it's wartime shipments to In- dia of silver from melted dollars, Di- rector of the Mint Baker disclosed how thousands of tons of the metal were hauled from the Philadelphia mint to San Francisco in special trains guard ed by armed marines, without loss of an ounce and without general know ledge of the procedure.

ABOUT KEEPING UP
 THEIR INSURANCE

The government through the Bur- eau of War Risk Insurance, wrote ap- proximately $4O,OOO, 100000 of insur- ance upon the lives of more than A. 500 ,OOO service men and women. This is larger volume of insurance than is in force in the old-line insurance companies of the United States. Ap- proximately 90 per cent of the men in active service during the war were protected by War Risk Insurance, and the average protection was -S,7OO. While the men were in the service it was easy to collect the insurance premiums by deductng the amount due each month from their pay. Now the men have to look after the payment of their own premiums, and the sit uation is further complicated by req son of the fact that the addresses of hundreds of thousands of them are no longer known to the Bureau of War Risk Insurance. Col. R. G. Cholmely- Jones, Director of the Bureau, does not consider it surprising that so many former service men have not continued to make regular monthly payments of their War Risk Insurance premiums. He says:
 "In the first place, yer view of them realize that the Government insuran- ce, as we'll as compensation and allot ments and allowances, is paid by the Treasury Department through the Bureau of War Risk Insurance; neith- CT do they realize that after their discharge from active service their checks or money orders for insurance premiums should be made payable to "The Treasurer of the United States, and sent to Premium Receipt Section, Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Wash Agton, D. c.
