PERPETUAL LIGHT
OPENS new ERA?
College Professor Announces
Today Development of
Continuous Flame.

PRINCETON. y. J., April "a
The Dawning Of an era OF perpetual
illumination was seen by scientists
today in announcement by Prof. E.
Newton Harvey Of Princeton univer-
sity that he had developed a con-
nnuous cold light, called luciferin.
This is a step which science re-
CARDS as equal IN importance TO in
vention OF the wireless. the tele-
phone, telegraph, photograph, air
plane. automobile and other modern
devices Continuous cold light even
tualIy will do away with all forms OF
artificial illumination, according 10
belief Of scientists. II will be possi-
bic for a man 10 carry a bottle Of
light In his pocket. Permanent
globes Of light viii be suspended in
the streets. in public buildings and
in residences.
Just at present the new discovery
has not reached anywhere near that
stage Of development. Exhibited by
Prof Harvey 10 had the appearance
OF a small blue flame hickering in
water in a flask. However. it is pos
sible 10 read by che faint glow II
is just about I'm the stage Of develop
ment now that the photograph was
when il gave forth but a faint
scratchy sound. and the movies were
in the days when they were jumpy
blurs, hard on the eyes.
The new substance burns forever
with a cold, blue light. Prof Harvey
calls il a protein which he has sue
| ceeded in isolating. after eight years
/ experimenting from bacteria, fungi
and insects.
Once he succeeded in isolating
/ the luciferin, Prof. Harvey was con-
fronted with the problem Of making
! IL permanent. 1t would glow for a
while then flicker out. This was be-
cause it burned only so long as oxy-

gen was applied 20 IL. and the oxy-
gen also had ths effect Of destroy
inr g. Now Prof Harvey has rer-
fected a chemical process whereby
the oxygen is separated from the
guciferin Immediately after the con-
tact which produces the light and
then joins with Il again. This pro-
duces continuous light rays. without
wearing out the luciferin.
Scientists have been working on
the problem Of continuous cold light
for many years. There have been
several premature announcements
that IL had been perfected Prof
Harvey's experiments were crowned
with success only when he discover
ed the process Of continuously oxyi-
dizing the luciferin without killing
IL by the action OF oxygen. II is far
from ready for commercial purposes
yet, Prof. Harvey says There may
be years Of experiment before II
can be put TO practical use.

; Births to | Death
Ration in Haiti as
US. Methods Prevail

PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti, Oct. Z.
With a ratio of three births to each
death as shown by vital statistics
for the first six months of 1922,
Haiti is rapidly increasing in popu-
lation and is free from race sui
eide. A striking phase of this in
crease is that the difference in
male and female babies is negligible.
The gradual adoption of American
sanitary methods, the improvement
of the agricultural yield, and the
cessation Of Haitian revolutions
with their considerable toll Of
deaths and hardships that were re-
Elected in succeeding generations,
are responsible for the marked in
crease in a naturally prolific peo-
pie. Last year the ratio was two
to one.
Halti's native population, when
she revolted against France in 1891,
was slightly over half a million.
Today it is estimated at 100000,
a steady and normal increase.
Prior to the American occupation
no vital statistics were collected by
the Haitian government. Estimates
Of the population were made by the
French priests and generally &C.
copied. A system inaugurated by
the American sanitary service, CO.
operated in by the Haitian gen
darmerie, is beginning to yield re-
suits of growing accuracy. The
first six months of this year showed
an increase of 60 per cent of the
communes making reports, as COM
pared to ten per cent last year.

USE Of D|R|G|BLES
To Be EXTENSIVE,
EXPERTS PREDICT
BY CONDO

BELLEVILLE, ILL.,, Oct. 7.-One-
third Of the population Of the United
States will be flying in dirigibles in
the near future, according to a pre-
diction Of A. Leo Stevens, chief in
structor of aeronautics for the
United States army at Scott field,
near here. Mr.. Stevens, in 1902,
made the first dirigible flight in this
country.
The dirigibles, Mr.. Stevens said,
will range in size from the small
west pocket" type to mammoth ma
chimes carrying from ten to twenty
motors.
1.-The dirigibles of the future will
have pontoons," he asserted, land
the water will be helpful for landing
places. The machines of the future
will carry from ten to twenty mo-
tors. The compartments in the large
airships will be. equipped with safety
berths. The touching of a button by
the commander will cause every pas.
senger to descent towards earth at
the same time. Each berth will have
all necessary equipment for landing
and floating it's passengers to safety.
THE army of the future will travel
through the air and it will be moth.
ing to see a thousand or more men
transported at one time in one ma
chine. I believe it is only a matter
of a short time when one-third OF
the population of this country will
be flying all sorts of aerial contri
vances, and we will have a west
pocket size dirigible for those who
don't care to own a large craft"
