TO override a veto.
At present there are not more than
seventy-five Senators in Washington.
Some of the absentees are paired on
the basis of two votes for the bonus
bill to each one against it. A few
Senators favoring the bonus bill have
not negotiated pairs because there are
not enough Senators opposing it to 90
around. Under the pairing arrange
ment on the bonus the advantage rests
With the opposition.
On his return tomorrow Secretary
Mellon will confer with the President
regarding the financial features OF the
bonus measure. The Treasury Secre-
tary's opinion of the bonus is fully
understood by members of Congress
and the Legion promoters of the
scheme. He has repeatedly pointed out
to committees of the two houses
sound and logical objections to the
financial aspects of the measure.
He has declared that payments on
the foreign debts on which bonus
advocates have counted cannot be de-
pended on for some time; also that
they must be used to retire Liberty
and Victory bonds held by citizens of
the United States. The Secretary also
has furnished figures to show not
only that there is no money in the
Treasury 10 meet the proposed bonus
obligation but that the Government
IS confronted with a deficit OF from
$500, 900 900 to 100000, 900 for the cur
rent year.
1t was declared at the Treasury
Department this afternoon that Mr.
Mellon and his aides had analyZed the
bonus bill in advance of its coming
and prepared a memorandum regard
ing its financial features for the in
formation of the President. This
memorandum was sent to the White
House this afternoon. 1t undoubtedly

Information at the White House to-
night was to the effect that "the Pres
ident has the bonus bill under consid-

Further than this the President made
no statement that might indicate one
way or the other the nature of mis-
views.
His attitude toward the delegation
of American Legion and other organ.-
zations headed by Commander Mac
Nider was personally sympathetic and
most courteous. The President lis.
tened to Col. MacNider. Mrs. Alice NJ.

Such rcloading mechanisms, together
with what is termed "primary and
secondary rocket principle, have been
patented by DR.. Goddard under four
patents.
There are three principles involved
The first concerns thermO- dynamic cf-
iiciency through the use of smooth
nozzle of proper length and taper,
through which the gaseous products of
combustion are discharged
by this means the expansion Of
the gases is obtained as kinetic energy.
and complete combustion is ensued.
A reloading device embodics the
second principle. whereby large mass
of explosive material is used, Il little
at time, in II small, strong. cOmbus-
ton chamber. This enables high cham
bor preSsures to be employed, i'm
possible in an ordinary paper rocket.
and also permits the mass Of the rocket
to consist Of propcllcnt material.
The employment of Il primary and
secondary rocket apparatus is dealt
with in the third principle. The
secondary, miniature of the primary.
is fired when the primary has reached
the upper limit of it's flight. by this
means the large ratio of propcllent
material to total mass is kept virtually
the same during thr entire flight. \

TO Steer PrOjectiie
by Silenium Cells

Concerning the possibility of hitting
the moon with II rocket, DIR. Goddard
says it has been argued, granting that
the projection to such n distance can
be made, there will be so many disturb
ing influences affecting its course that
il will b" very unlikely to continue in
the proper direction to make n hit.
lie declares the photo sensitive cell
will be the means of automatically guild
ing the apparatus toward or near Il
luminous object. in this ease the creS-
cent of the moon. The steering. he
says, must be accomplished by Jets,
which work lnternlly just as the main
jet works perpendicularly.

Spected than DIR. Goddard, and the
students have frequently demonstrated
their deep affection for the man.

on rocket theory" said DIR. God
dard. "lIe is French engineer. but
his experiments are not being conducted
with the idea of exploring extreme alti-
tudes.'
The amount of money which Clark
University trustees have placed at the
disposal Of DR.. Goddard to further his
experiments has not been made public
DIR. Goddard contents himself with the
statement that it is a modest amount. =.
but entirely adequate for the work in
hand. The trustees are likewise un-
communicative. but they say the ap-
preparation was made because they had
faith in the practicability of the project
1t is not the sensational idea of
shooting human being to the moon
that has attracted the attention of
scientists and impressed the university
trustees, but rather the possibilities for
scientific information which has long
been desired.
DR.. Goddard says that while his
theory is not being worked out with the
idea of getting data on weather condi-
tiOns for forecast. the rocket plan would
be an Unreasonable aid to the weather
man.

Observations May Aid
Science of Aviation

The observations that could be
made with rockets and proper instru-
ments fired only few miles into the
air would be valuable to aviators also, :"
he said. II think the time is not so
very far distant when such methods will
be employed to ascertain flying condi-
tions.
This is one of the immense possi-
bilities in the development of the rocket
theory. While my rocket would be en-
plOyed to reach extreme attitudes, it
would not be difficult to utilize it on a
smaller scale for just such purposes.
"Speculations have been made as to
the nature of the upper atmospheric
those by Wegner being perhaps the most
plausible.
by estimating the temperature and
percentage composition of the gases
present in the atmosphere, Wegner
calculates the partial pressure of the
constituent gases, and concludes that
there are four regions or spheres Of the
atmosphere in which certain gases pre-
dominate: the troposphcre, in which
urc the clouds; the strntOsphere. pre-
dominatingy nitrogen; the hydrogen
sphere, and the geocoronlum sphere.
"This highest sphere appears to con-
sst essentially of an element of geo.
cOrOnium, II gas not present ut the sur
face of the earth. The existence of
such gas is in agreement with
Nicholson's theory of the atom, and
its investigation, would, Of course, be
matter of considerable Importance
to astronomy and physics, as well as
meteorology
''The greatest altitude at which
s0undings of the atmosphere have been
made by balloons, namely, about twenty
miles. Is but II small fraction of the
height to which the atmosphere is sup
posed to extend.
Simultaneous daily observations at
a large number of stations of the vnri-
Gus planes of pressure, temperature and
wind velocity would doubtless be of
great value in weather fOrecasting.
The theory, which have worked out. Is
well suited for such Il purpose. in that
the time and rise of such Il fall would
be short, so that the apparatus would
readily be found on It's return. The
expanse would be slight being simply
that of fresh magazine of cartridges

Could Recover Rocket
bu Means of Parachute

The recovery of appartus on its re-
turn, DR.. Goddard says, need not be
difficult matter, inasmuch as the time
Of ascent even to great attitudes In
the atmosphere will be comparatively
short, due to the high speed Of the
rocket throughout its entire course.
The time of descent will also be short,
but free fall can be prevented salts
factorily by suitable parachute. A
parachute will be operative, he says,
for the reason that high veloc
tiles and small atmospheric densi
ties are essentially the same as low
velocitics and ordinary density.
Even If mass of one pound were
propelled by the apparatus until 1t
possessed sufficient momentum to escape
the carth's attraction, the propelling
mass need not be unreasonably large.
for high velocity Of election would
be attainable.
DIR. Goddard has not been unmind-
full of the popular discussions that have
ensucd concerning the merits of his
theory and the possibilities it presents.
He has given careful consideration to
all questions that have been raised and
has not failed to convince his critics
of the faith he has in the principle
and the ultimate success of his project.
DR.. Goddard says that to many
people the operation of jet in a
vacuum is still mystery. However.
he says the phenomenon is easily un-
dcrstood if one thinks of the elected
gas as charge of fine shot. moving
with very high velocity The cham
her will react or kick when the charge
is fired. exactly as shotgun kicks
when firing charge of ordinary shot.
An objection which DR.. Goddard has
answered is that if n rocket were to be
projected to an infinite distance, the
apparatus would engender great fric-
ton while passing through the air, and
if it moved with speed as great as one
and one half miles per second outside
the atmosphere, it would catch fire by
friction or fly to pieces, because of the
excessive speed.
He declares that the initial speed
does not exceed two thousand feet per
second over the first twenty five miles.
beyond which the density of the atmos-
phrre is negligible. He says the idea
of Il body flying to pieces is unfOunded,
and points ont there is good evidence
to believe that the earth. together with
the entire remaining solar system is
travelling through space at speed Of
fifteen miles Per second, but this does
not cause any one noticeable inconveni-
pncp.

Many Have offered
to Take Lunar Trip

That many people throughout the
world have taken serious cognizanre OF
DIR. Goddard's experiments is erinced
BY the large number Of letters he has
received from persons eager to take n
trip to the moon.
"When my theory was first made
public" said DR.. Goddard. II re-
ceived letters from men who desired to
ride to the moon. They are still COM
ing. Only recently l got letter from
n woman in Kansas City. Mo-. who
appealed for the opportunity to take the
rocket trip.
"The majority Of the writer's, how
ever, reveal in their letters that they
are animated by the desire for publicity.
Their offers are not to be taken serl-
ously as nm effort to give scientific as
sistance.'
DR.. Goddard has received countless
letters from scientists who have offered
their services. Some of them pro""Se
journeying to Worcester to aid the
professor in the Clark laboratory.
Perhaps the most interesting of these
missives has come from Nhartum'

his life in research work details how

years after the subject gained promi-
