or less than 4 per cent. had ATTENDED
or completed the eighth grade.
Only one Of FIVE States covered had
a compulsory school law for children
up to sixteen even when unemployed,
and that law permits many eNemp-
tions.
"Both parents and children,
through ignorance OF the value or
schooling, are apt 10 take advantage
of the legal right to dodge an educa-
ton" said the bureaus statement.
"In a recent study OF school attend
ance in Cleveland 1t was found that
1850 children were so irregular in
their attendance at school as to In
terfere with their studies, and that
reasons for staying out of school were
in many instances trivial Among
foreign groups children were kept at
home on bargain or market days to
act as Interpreters for their mothers.
The statement declared that in
three Of the FIVE States covered, the
names OF which were not given, chill
dren sixteen and younger are per-
mitted to go to work even If they
cannot read or write, or have never
been to school, and two of the States
require only that the child shall have
attended school only for a limited

NEAR DISCOVERY Of
NEW M0TNEP0WER
Science on Verge Of Applying
Atomic Energy to Field Of
Oil and Coal.
by HAROLD r. WYATT.

Famous Brllsn scientist.
LONDON, July l2.-At any moment
in some quiet laboratory may be re-
vealed a secret OF nature which will
transform all the conditions OF mans
being. and so visibly divide past from
future that later generations may
say: AT this point human history
was bisected and our day began"
While this prodigious potentiality
is known to exist in matter. no EFFORT
to form some general conception of
the results expected appears to have
yet been made.
Yet these results beggar imaKina-
tion and transcend experience. Coal
fields and oil wells will become su-
perfluities, and all conditions of
transport will be revolutionized. A
motive power-enormous, illimitable
and costing nothing save for such
apparatus as may be required-will
be placed at the service of an aston
ished world.
The chosen mode OF movement will
be made through the air. and there
speeds will naturally be reched eX-
ceeding any present thought OF pos
sibility, and the practical Limitation
will be marked only by the point at
which swiftness OF movement causes
combustion.
This raises the question will man
ever be able himself to navigate,
while still wearing the vesture OF
flesh, the CULTS intervening between
the units OF the solar SYSTEM" The
reply is that when atomic energy is
at last made useable there would
seem to he no valid reson to reject
the thought.
Taking the moons distance as
averaging. roughly 100000 miles, the
passage thither at speed. say. of
one mile per secondhand we cannot
imagine that under such conditions
it could be less-would not be more
than sixty hours.
Again taking roughly. the distance
of Mars from US as averaging 3o.-
900, 900 miles, the time needed to cross
that distance at the speed named
would be little under one year
about as long as the period con-
sumed by Cliva in his first visit to
India.
