Belief Is entertained that the me-
teor leaves behind II n tube-shnpcd
layer of highly heated air. which ex.

atmosphere Along Its track is elcctri
fed by the Transit OF the celestial pro
jectile and IL thereby rendered brightly
rhosphOrcscent. Air currents blow the
tube about. producing the snnky effect.
Observations made simultaneously
from stations far apart have proved
TINT the average meteor when first

face OF the earth and disappears from

1t is not necessary that they should

EARLY TAX REVISION
FAVORED BY DIRECTOR

WASHINGTON, Sept. early
tax revision and prompt payment TO
the railroads of their claims against
the government are the main hopes
Of ending unemployment, Eugene
Meyer, managing director of the
war finance corporation, told the
press today.
Hope OF the administration that
IL can end the business depression
is centered largely on Meyer. The
government agency Of which he is
at the r cad is now endeavoring 10
stimulate exports 10 aid agriculture
and Jpon the Passage OF pending
legislation will attempt 70 put the
railroads on their feet
Revision OF taxes will be follow
ed Immediately by easier money"
Never declared.
The effects will be noticeable al
most instantaneously. Easier mon
ey means cheaper mortgages and
that naturally means a revival Of
building.
Settlement of the railroad trou-
bles by legislation now pending will
bring commerce back to normal in
a hurry.
"Railroading and building are
two Of the nations vital industries.
Revive them and your unemploy-
ment is cured"
