Carborundum Gives Good Re
suits With Slight Pressure
of Contact Wire.

Various kinds OF de,ee,ors require
different kinds OF contacts. With
galena. satisfactory results are OBJ.
tanned only with light contac, made
by a fine wire. perhaps No. so or
smaller, which makes contact with
only a very small surface. Iron py.
rites and molybdeni,e usually give
best results with u fine wire, but can
be used with larger points.
Silicon can be used with a fine
wire contact. but will also give good
results in contact with the end OF a
snail machine screw under consider
able pressure. The screw is usually
tapered TO a blue point. Iron pyrites
is sometimes used in contact with the
tapered point OF screw under pres
sure. Carborundum gives best results
with contact OF appreciable area
under considerable pressure. provid.
ing this contact is made with the
most sensitive spots. which may be
deep in the mass OF crystals in a
specimen.

For service in the field or on ship

rugged instruments which require
very little adjustment, silicon or car

cradle pressure with the blue point

sirable. With silicon and carborun-
dun the same contact may be used
for a considerable time. For per-
manent land stations. where new
crystals are easily available and new
adjustments can be easily made, the
more sensitive galena crystals are
preferable.

Presidents Program Scores.

Although acceptance Of President
Harding's arbitration proposed by the
anthracite mine owners was to have
been expected, in view Of their past
| record. its moral effect is boand to be
highly beneficial. 1t will make it
much more difficult for either the
bituminous operators or the miners
to justify refusal and will soiid.fy
public sentiment back Of the demand
that the mine strike be brought to a
speedy end. The public cannot be ex-
pected to know and appreciate all the
| fine points in the controversy between
the mine owners and their employees.
but the public has faith to believe
that the President of the United
States would not propose that which
was unfair. and it will be at once con-
| cluded that II the anthracite operators
can afford to submit their case to
arbitration all other parties interested
could do so with assurance Of SUBJ
stantial justice.
If. as has been suggested, both the

been waiting to see how public senti-
ment would react to the arbitration
proposal, they need wait no longer.
From every part Of the country there
comes practically unanimous demand
that the method of settlement sug-
gested by the President shall be ac-
cepted and that the mining of coal be
resumed without delay.
The miners having postponed an
answer to the President until their
policy committee" meets here Sat
urday, the bituminous operators cam
not justly be hurried into a decision
before. that time. But the public ex-
poets that the bituminous operators
and both the bituminous and anthra-
cite miners will then speedily agree
to accept arbitration and that the
mining Of coal will be resumed next
week. If this expectation is disap-
pointed, there is likely to be an
unprecedented demonstration Of the
possibilities of an aroused public
sentiment.

To Our Dead in France.

There is a decidedly happy absence
Of ostentation in the plans Of the com.
mittee of which Miss Abbie B.
McCammon is chairman for the erec-
tion of a memorial to the American
dead who remain in France. Too
often, in the desire adequately to ex-
press the gratitude of America to
those who have given their lives that
the nation might live, the better iudg-
ment of the people has been SUD-
merged and edifices which-in their
very sophistication and pretentious-
ness-fail to express the solemn
thought to which they are dedicated
have been erected.
This mistake, according to the an.
nounced plans Of the committee in
charge, is not to be made in the case
in point. In Arlington cemetery, upon
a beautiful site designated by the War
Department, surrounded by the graves
Of those who fell in the world war, a
plain Latin cross is to be erected. Sim
ply and eloquently it will bespeak the
pride and love and gratitude in which
America holds the memory Of her sons
who sleep so far away.
Here is a tribute which cannot but
grip the heart of the nation. Subscrip-
tions. even in the smallest amount,
are invited to meet the modest cost
of a memorial which, in its simple
and reverent character, will SO fitting
ly typify the spirit of those to whose
memory it will be dedicated.

Merchant Marine and Navy.

The Americans engaged in business
at Yokohama entertained Secretary
DENLY at dinner Monday night and.
appropriately enough, he entertained
them, in part, with reference to the
American merchant marine problem.
This sentence from the. Secretary's
speech must have set his hosts to
thinking on that subject, and might
well set us at home here to thinking
more earnestly, along the line sug.
gested: THE merchant marine is Sec
ond only to the. Navy in it's i'm.
portance to the defense Of our coun.
try" eft"
Our main line of thought as to the
merchant marine has to do with trade.
We want to extend and enlarge our
foreign trade. and to promote that
purpose need to become our own car.
riers. 1t is important that we de.
carriers may not be expected to take
pains to assist in the carrying out Of
an American policy.
But the naval feature Of the prob.
lem is important, too. A merchant
marine adequate for all trade purposes
will at the same time be adequate for
all naval purposes. !,
We should keep our Navy up to the
mark in every particular. . We have
need of it, and shall continue to: have

recent material accomplishments OF

Attempted Murder Of Harden Must
React on Monarchists.

Universal -: condemnation for. the
.monarchists who inspired the mur-
derous assault on Macmillan Harden
Germany's foremost publicist and
editor, is voiced by American news
papers. The very boldness OF the
crime, the editors are convinced. de-
feated its purpose. 1t is suggested
that as a result of the assault on
Harden. following 80 closely on the
assassination Of Rathenau, the gov
ernment will now be.able to COM
mand the needed .two-thirds vote in
the reichstag to enable it to adopt
Its drastic progeam of national de-
tense. Harden's popularity with the
German workmen Is considered GER
tain to- arouse their @ resentment ent
Hohenzollerns on tbs German throne.
The coincidence Is remarked that the
attempt to kill Harden followed on
the very heels of his latest dispatch
showing there had been 317 German
democrats and not'a' single royalist
slain prior to the assassination of
Rathenau, and that the German gov
ernment, under existing conditions.
does not dare" to compel the troops
to carry the nag Of the republic.
Harden, like Rathenau," the New
York Evening World points out, "is
fearless thinker, constructive force
in German affairs. Germany needs
such intelligences as those of Harden
and Rathenau. They would be need
ed as much in a monarchy or fh a
soviet as in. "a republican state"
The effort to get Harden out of the
nau, emphasizes, the Indianapolis
News points out, his recent dispatch
announcing that the government does
not dare to compel its troops to carry
the nag of the, republic, and adds that
"some sympathy might be felt for q
romantic affection. But surely sys-
tematic campaign Of murder can in
spire no such feeling. The theory of

the request that was presented to him
ss a meeting Of the popular Wish in
the matter. -.!,--. - -
At first it was not quite understood
by the community that the schedule
Of. hours was: to be changed without
changing the clocks. and when that
fact became. known It. was realized
that the shift would occasion much
discomfort. much loss and probably
some unfortunate physical effects. The
Stars referendum ON the matter clear
ly showed the trend OF opinion and.
without doubt. If q vote had been
taken throughout the departments
among all the $4,000 government en-
ployes, the result would have been a
heavy majority in favor Of returning
to the old hours.
When the s.to-4:So schedule is re-
stored during the latter part Of
August it will be put aside, not only
for this year, but for all time. 20 far
as this administration 10 concerned"
Thus says the President in his letter
to the chairman of the committee, Of
inquiry representing the clerks. II
there should be a change Of heart in
Congress on the subject permitting
the enactment Of a daylight-saving
bill on the old basis Of change Of
clocks, Washington will doubtless go
back to the wartime expedient Of the
foreshortened day. AS this. however,
is unlikely. in view Of the strong op-
position to federal legislation on this
subject, it is probable that the latter
part Of August will see the end Of
time changes at the capital.

leaders and the democratic leaders on

ton figures Of Congress. The repub-
licans, being responsible for them. jus
tify them; the democrats. with the

the regulation thing. 1t was 80 in the
beginning. Is now. and ever shall be,
government without end.
The figures are large. But on that
point there is one consolation. The
country is getting used to large fig-
ures. It has come to appreciate what
they mean. It we'll understands that
return to pre-war figures is fmpos-
sible. The government must be sup
ported according to its later needs and
obligations. Amy party falling IN that
would lose the confidence and favor
of the people.
We shall hear in this years cam
paign. as we did In the campaign: Of
two years ago, a good deal on the
subject Of economy. 1t is an arrest.
Ing subject at all times. 1t Is q par
ticularly arresting subject at this time,
when the governments income and
outlay are unprecedented for size and
variety. We are taking in money
from many new sources. and paying
it out for many new things.
The situation calls for candor on
the part Of both sides. There should
be no window-dressing by the one side
and no idle charge Of such thing by
the other side. Let the people have
the plain facts and they will know
what to do with them on election day.

Rail Situation Brightens.

DEVELOPMENTS of the last twenty
four hours in the railroad strike sit
uation indicate that the import Of
President Harding's warning is begin
ming to be realized and that it Is hav-
ing effect. It was hardly to be ex-
pected that labor leaders would yield
to the Presidents proclamation with
out verbal protest, but as it Is their
actions, and not their words. which
count, there is no objection to their
reading into the record protests to
their hearts content.
Acceptance by the railroad execu'
tives of the proposal that employees
who are members Of other unions shall
not be called upon to do the work Of
striking shopmen apparently removes
any immediate danger that the strike
will spread and simplifies the issues
to be adjusted. 1t is hailed as a 'vic-
tory" for the four big brotherhoods,
but to have adopted any other course
that it ought never to have been
contemplated. This concession having
been made them, the brotherhoods
hardly would attempt to justify refusal
to take trains into and out Of guard
ed areas" So their victory is not un-
like that of Pyrrhus. who, in response
to congratulations. exclaimed: Yes,
but if we have such another victory
we are undone."
At first contemplation the refusal of
the railroad executives to negotiate
with the striking shopmen is some
thing of shock. but it is only con-
sistent with their attitude and with
that of the Railroad Labor Board that
the strike is against the government
and not against the railroads. 1t sim
ply means that negotiations must he
conducted through the Labor Board,
instead Of directly, and, as the Labor
Board exists for that very purpose.
the apparent obstacle to a settlement
is seen not to be serious one.
But mere hopeful than any specific
action which has resulted is the
change in tone which has followed
the Presidents proclamation. The
leaders Of the striking shopmen now
apparently are as eager to end the
strike as they were to begin it and
to be looking only for a way. If this
is a correct Interpretation of their
state Of mind the way will be found
speedily. There Is not. with the pub
lie or the government, any desire to
humiliate or crush the shop crafts
unions. But they have placed them
selves in an untenable position and
a method must be found by which they
can retreat as gracefully as possible.

President Harding's assurance that
the so-called "daylight-savipg" system
that has been in vogue In Washington
for the past several weeks will expire
in August, not to be revived, must
ae viewed as q closing Of the case.
He declines to order or authorize a

issued. He says. however, that the
matter will be left. AZ before. to the
individual heads Of departments, who
may change the hours back to normal
