ly about 100000 people, Harry
Thomas Cory former director gem

America made public here today.
Mr.. Cory, a California engineer
went to Palestine recently al tha
invitation. of Justice Bran1eis, hon
orary president of the internation-
al and American Zionist orgaEiza-

Nile river irrigation projects IN

Mr.. Corey said his findings after
a short survey Of the Holy Land
were in complete accord with those
of Sir William Wilcox head Of the
Nile projects commission of the
egyptian government, and Prof. =.
H. Forbes, of the University of Ne

desert irrigation.
THE western slope of Palestine
is naturally better than the south

Los Angeles, which has made pos

development" Mr.. Cory said. "Fhe

to learn that it was planned to irri-

orn California is a frost proof area,
THE greater quantity and better
distribution of the rainfall renders
dry farming easier and safer in
Palestine regions.
The valley of the Jordan Is an
entirely different matter a5 to eli
matte conditions and many other
features. However, Sir william,
Professor Forbes and / are in coma
plete agreement as to the feosibl-
fly of irrigating at least 100000
acres there. Sir William ard I are
entirely satisfied as to the ability
to economically develop 10000
horsepower in hydro-elecuic plants.
1.-THE 500 000 acres are much
more comparable to the irrigated
lands in the Imperial valley, the
southeastern corner of California
overlapping into Mexico.
1.-THE future OF Palestine is en-
tirely dependent upon the human
element. In that regard was
greatly surprised and impressed by
the fact that probably the Nonists
will be able to secure very quickly
ownership of over half the land IN
that country. Further, the land
which can be secured IS apparently
typical of the region as whole,

SEA TROOPS OF BOY
SCOUTS ARE PLANNED
By The Associated Press)

Galveston, Tex, Dec. 12.--The
thrills, romance and tragedy of the
sea, a closed book to most growing
youths except through the medium
Of dreams, are to be brought to the
sea troop of Boy Scouts. just or
ganized here.
"From the time when they sailed
miniature ships in bathtubs and
got into difficulties with their par
ents over neglecting to turn off the
tap, most Youngsters develop a
keen interest in things pertaining
to the sea and the men who sail to
foreign lands" said one of the local
organizers recently. "Capitalizing
this longing of the boys. the ma
tional council Of the scouts have
begun organization of sea troops,
to which will belong youths who
care more about the sea than they
do about woodcraft and field lore
The different classes through
which the scouts, will pass In their
work are the sloop class, the
schooner class, the barkentine, the
bark and finally the steamship
class In instruction pertaining to
sailing vessels, the youths will be
taught the various knots In the
rigging of craft of this Kind, the
names OF sails how to spread can
vas and how to take 1t down,
weather observation and other
matters pertaining to sailing res-
sells. In the steamship class the
scouts will study engineering. cargo
stowage and wireless.
The local sea scout organization
IS one of the three being organized
in Texas. the other bodies being at
Corpus Christi and El Paso.

CORK FTRE.NiEN ARE IN
POSSESSION OF RUINS

Belfast Dec. IA score of
fires had burned themselves out in
Cork by p. m. and the firemen
were in possession of the ruins At
$50 D. m. a special train left Dub
lin for Cork, carrying Captain
Myers, chief of the Dublin brigade,
and a motor engine with creaW.
A deputation of the citizens OF
Cork. says a dispatch received here,
including the Protestant bishop
and the town clerk. waited on the
officer commanding the CORK
troops and requested him to take
measures to prevent a recurrence
of the appalling damage 10 prop
erty. He promised to send out
special military patrols.
The destroyed city hall in Cork
was only eXcelled in point OF SIZE
in ireland by Belfast's great civic
building. This was the third time
it had been set on fire. the firemen
being driven out at the point OF
revolvers. On the two previous
occasions the west wing, devoted
to the public health department,
was burned. This time the hall
was set alight in many places. The
great hall seating 5000 and having
a fine organ. shared the fate OF
the municipal premises.
No confirmation has been re-
ceived here of the shooting of the
Delaney brothers. but 1t Is Off
cialIy stated that one was killed
and eleven were wounded in the
ambush which resulted in the re-
prisals
The fact that no serious casual
ties were caused by the bombs is
explained by the statement that
preliminary warnings was given to
all occupants of buildings to leave
prior to the attacks.

The work was started during the

ton with the national research
council and the engineering found
alton of New York. The General
Electric company recently became
a partner in this cooperative eff
fort, and has made considerable
contribution in money to be used
to further investigation, especially
with view TO the study of the
problems of fatigue of steel used
in steam turbines. It is known
that the rotating disc of the tur-
biucs often vibrate,s literally due
to the uneven distribution of the
steam to the two sides. The re-
sistance of the various metals to
this repeated strain is to be tested
at the university.
Success in the investigation OF

will mean saving of millions Of
dollars in machinery and the dis
covery of a valuable scientific law.
