70 Measure Northern Lights

Wiscasset Me-, June 2S--lt is the
intention OF Prof. Donald +, Mac
MILAN, Arctic explorer. 10 measure
the northern lights on his coming trip
10 Baifin Land, on which he VIII sail
from this port about the 18th OF next
month. This, i, is believed, will be
one Of the most important works the
Maine explorer will do on the TWO
years trip into the Arctic regions.
Scientists everywhere and IN
every land believe that the future

Of the air" Prof. Macmillan declared.
in discussing this project recently.
and the northern lights seem to be
the most important source from
which TO draw. Before power can
he taken from hese lights more
must he known concerning them.
That is easily seen. One of the prin-
opal things to he learned Of these
wonderful lights is how high they are
and then it is necessary to gather
information as to their length. but
the first important knowledge to be
secured is their height.
Until it is known how high these
lights are above the earth's surface
scientists are lost in calculating the
character and size-of Instruments and
machinery necessary TO experiment in
drawing electrical energy from them,
and SO demonstrate its availability to
the needs of the people of this world.
we shall make these measure
rnents by means of the motion picture

will be TO establish base line This
done the rest, we feel confident. IS
com para.ively easy"
This is not the first time that mo-
ten pictures of the northern lights
known, il will be the frst time that
it has been done by an American ex-
nedition The Germans. it is under
stood have made such photogra phs
but only as photographs, and not for
the purpose Of making measurements.
They are the only people who have
made such pictures.
For a long time. it is explained by
Prot Macmillan. it was not thought
POSSIBLE to make such pictures. The
reason was that they must be made
at night, and it was not deemed pos
stble to make photographs as rapidly
as must be done TO record their vary
iAg light and get anything like full
time photogfa phs. It has been ac-
eemplished by making films for the
movie camera of great constituencies
IN order to secure the required speed.

stranger, who said he was a detective

Lenine's P0tuer Sho,un
At Mosco,u Congress
Internal Program, Is accepted
Virtually Without Opposi-
ton: Mistakes Are Admitted


STOCKHOLM, March 24.-That Le-
nine's influence is growing was indi-
Gated in the election of the central
committee at the recent Communist
congress at Moscow, when he received
all the votes. All his proposals regard
ing internal policy were accepted al
most without opposition.
With regard to the decision of the
congress on freedom of trade, it should
be understood that foreign trade is
still nationalized, but trade within
Russian borders becomes free.
To reconcile the peasants and en-
courage enterprise with them Lenine
has permitted the cooperative organi-
cations to resume activity, in the hope
that they will be able to start distribu-
tion and get the raw material now hid
den by the peasants in circulation.
The view is held here that this COM
promise will hardly lead to big positive
results. Economic destitution in Rus
sia has gone far, and it is asserted that
salvation must come from the outside.
1t is possible that Lenine's new watch
word may be too late.
AT the congress Lenine pointed out
the Soviet's mistakes during the last
year. When the Soviet forces, he said,
marched on Warsaw the enemy's
strength was foolishly belittled, and
later, during the period of demobiliza-
tion, the Soviets' inability to carry this
out brought tremendous suffering over
the country.

Rumors of Czech Troops
On Frontier Stir Vienna
Revival of Move for Austrian
Fusion With Germany Said
To Re Car1se nf Acsiv;sv

VIENNA, March "a (By The Asso-
ciated ss).-Rumors that Czecho-
Slovak troops have been concentrated
on the Austrian frontier have caused a
panicky feeling here, in view of the
internal political conditions In the
Austrian republic. This feeling persists
in spite of the fact that reports re-
gardng the gathering Of Czech troops
have been partially denied by news
paper advices.
1t is asserted in certain circles that
the military activity of Czecho- -Slovakia
Is due to the marked recrudescencc of
the movement for fusion with Germany
since the unsatisfactory result Of
Chancellor Mayr's London mission has
become known. The Greater German
Party is known to be planning an in
terpellation in the National Assembly
after Easter, and it is expected it will
take the form of motion for the
passage Of necessary legislation for an
immediate referendum and resolution
notifying tho League of Nations that
Austria is compelled to work out her
own salvation through Germany.

BELFAST, March 24.-Police reserves

ing broke out between rival political
factions in We're Street. Revolvers and
stones were used by the rioters. Sew
eral casualties have been reported.
CORK, March % (By The Associated
Press) s).-Members of the "Irish repub-
lican" army made carefully planned
attempt last night to break into the Jail
Eere and release the prisoners there
under death sentence. The attempt
failed. however. owing to the extra0r-
dinary precautions taken by the au-
thorites.
The Republicans escorted all pedes-
trians from the roads near the jail
and grouped them under armed guards,
then entered the postoffice and made
prisoners of the staff. They finally
brought the previously collected pedes-
trians and told them to lie on the floor
when firing began.
Guard Against Outbreak
The republicans scaled the prison
wall and threw a rope ladder into the
yard. One of the Jail prisoners made
dash for liberty, but was quickly
captured. Finding their plan had
failed the republican forces dispersed.
DUBLIN, March 24.-Detailed mill
tary precautions have been taken

Grown forces have been posted in the

ficially declared, however, that no

Similar precautions were taken last
year, but instead of an armed insurrec-
tion simultaneous raids occurred over
Ireland on income tax offices and police
barracks. This year the curfew is ex-
pected to check such activities.

in the House of Commons to-day, in
reply to question, said he hoped that
from the Russian trade agreement
would emerge a peace treaty without
very prolonged delay.
This statement, confirming similar

ance OF the agreement, rather than any
immediate prospect of beneficial com
mercial transactions resulting from the
agreement.

Opposition to resumption of trade
relations with Russia by the United

night In letter to Secretary Hughes
from the National Civic Federation,
and in telegram to Secretary Hoover
from the board Of trustees of the

resolution adopted by that organiza-
tion on January is, which read:
"The National Civic Federation
pledges itself to support the incoming
Administration in its resistance
against the sinister commercial inter
ests and fomentors of social unrest
who, by urging trade relations with
the Soviet regime or direct recognition
of it. are working together to per-
petuate the chaos into which Russia
has been plunged by Lenine and
Trotzky."
Appended to Mr.. Parker's letter
were names Of more than $50 promi-
nent men and women who, he said, had
voiced their approval of the resolu-
tion.
The telegram to Secretary Hoover,
signed by f. R. Hooker, chairman of
