New Alloy Promises Much.

A metal lighter than any yet known
and as strong or stronger than steel
has for years been the dream Of many,
and every now and then rumors are
circulated to the effect that at last 1t
has been discovered. The latest re-
port relates to new magnesium al
10y said to have been discovered by
metal company in Montreal. The
new alloy, it is stated, is only two
thirds the weight of aluminium, and
is "as strong as STEEL" 1t is said to
be especially suitable for pistons and
connecting rods of aero and motor car
engines, where strength and lightness
are desirable.

of atrocities by American marines and
the native gendarmerie in Haiti and
demanding the withdrawal Of the Uni

in Washington to present memorial
to President Harding, the State de-

Haiti under orders from Secretary
Daniels to make personal inquiry.

memorial, that II the naval court OF

them over in silence"
Among the acts charged against the
American occupation of Haiti are
Administration OF the water cure
and other tortures by American Off
GERS and marines and the commission
