BRITrLENEss OF GLASS

The brlttleness of glass is due to the quick cooling of the hot substance. It is known that constant motion tends to rearrange the molecules in any sub stance, and similar effect is observed when glass is boiled in a weak solution of salt in water and allowed to cool gradually. The toughness of the glass is increased very much, and the effect of quick heating is less disastrous to it. This is easily applied to articles such as glass tubes for lighting purposes, and prevents much breakage.

NEW YORK. Aug. 26-"Let US lift
the Russian curtain and see for our

This was the positive treatment sug-
gested today by Frank A. VanderliP
world-famed hnancier. when asked by
the International News Service to COM
ment on the Russian situation which
has been battling the world.
There IS a tremendous Ignorance
in this country OF what is actually go
ing on IN Russia" Mr.. Vanderlip sta
ted
IGNORANT AS TO BoLSHEvIsM
1t is needless to say that I'm not
a Bolshevik." Mr.. Vanderlip added
lauEhingly. In fact the great ma
3ority Of Americans are not Bolshe-
viks. There is a wide ignorance I be-
lieve, as to Bolshevism or Communist
stand Russia IL we try TO look at heI
through a curtain"
Mr.. Vanderlip suggested that ar
American mission. either official or un-
official but Enthusiastically impartial
might do this country great service
by visiting Russia just as British and
other European delegations have done
theIrs-and reporting to our people the
actual conditions, problems and needs
OF Russia. minus propaganda trim
mings.
GET SECOND INFORMATION
"Of course it might be that the Rus
sian soviet. government would not per-
nit such an impartial survey of their
country" said Mr.. Nanderlip, but we
might try. At present our information
about Russian conditions is second OF
third hand.
There is no sentiment Of conse-
Quence in this country toward assist
Ing anything OF a communis tic social
ist trend, which clashes with American T
ideals But we ought to find out foi
our benefit just what the present sit
uation in Russia is"
i do not think we should make any
move as regards Russia until we frs
have accurate information upon which
to GO" said Mr.. -vanderlip. But K
work in the dark as at present, seem:
absurd. )"
What do you think Of Secretary Of
States Colby's Russian note, which
sought to drive q wedge between tn;
Russian people and their Moscow gov.
eminent" he was asked.
Il think it will prove ineffective,
