college base ball team at Amherst.
He was a favorite golfng partner of
the late President Harding, and is
considered the best golf player in
Congress today.
Gillett was a marked man even be-
fore he came to Congress. He had
been assistant attorney general OF
Massachusetts, and came here from
the Massachusetts state legislature
where he was leader of the house
and chairman of the judiciary COM
mittee.
He has served under five great
Speakers, all of whom are dead ex-
ccpt Uncle Joe" Cannon, the others
being Charles F.. Crisp of Georgia
Thomas b. Reed of Maine, David b.
Henderson of Iowa and Champ Clark
of Missouri
When Mr.. Gillett first took his seat
in Congress there were 357 members
as compared with AS today, and 13
from his home state of Massachusetts
as against 16 today.
The most striking change that
Speaker Gillett views in a RETROSPECT
tive survey of thirty years is that
no congressman then had a secretary.
He did most OF his writing in long
hand at his desk in the House cham
ber Consequently there was gen
orally a pretty full attendance of
the House, although it was not al
ways very attentive.

Four grand old veterans of legisla-

when Congress convenes tomorrow
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Mas
sachuse s. republican leader of the
Senate. heads the seniority list with
thirty years of consecutive service in
the Senate, having previously served
six years in the House. a total of
thirty six years of consecutive service
in Congress.
Senator Francis Emory Warren, also
a native Of Massachusetts,. having been
born in Hinsdate, nesting among the
Berkshire Hills, some six years before
Lodges nativity in Boston, started his
present service in the Senate just two
years later than Lodge, but before that
he had served three years in the Sem
ate, so that he has thirty years of
Senate life behind him. He has the
distinction of having received the con-
gressional medal Of honor for gallantry
Oh the battlefield at the siege of Port
Hudson. He is now chairman of the
Senate appropriations committee.
Gfilctt's Long Service.
Representative Frederick H Gillett,
Speaker of the House, has served con-
tinuously for thirty years in the lower
branch of Congress, having entered
upon his Legislative duties just as Lodge
left the House for the Senate
Gen. Isaac r. Sherwood, who Is re-
turning after two-year vacation, has
the distinction that will never be
rfvaled. of having entered Congress on
the Same day that Uncle Joe" Cannon
first came to make d world record for
longtime legislative service. That was
just fifty years ago. Gen. Sherwood took
thirty-four-year recess from the con-
Rressional grind, but came back strong
in 1907. So that while Gen. Sherwood
has been in Congress only a mere six
teen years. there is none there today
who was there ahead Of him.
Then there is younger group, headed
by Representative Henry Allen Cooper
of Wisconsin. who has served twenty
eight years, but not continuouslyff Rep
resentative Thomas S. Butler of Penn
sylvania, chairman of the naval affairs
committee, who served twenty-si years
continuously. and Representative Will
liam S. Greene of Massachusetts chair
man of the merchant marine commit
tee, who also served twenty six years
uninterruptedly.
Many Changes in House.
Tremendously important changes
have come about in Congress during
the past thirty years, and especially
In the House. To see the well pre-
served Speaker Giliett today one can

he had finished speaking the whole
republican side, led by the great

never happened again TO him until
1915, when he was ranking minority

A few men trained. Records Of large number of such disasters show ls9 men saved their lives by sealing them selves behind barricades built to shut out fatal gases, Many cases are re- corded where men lost their lives in attempting to escape through passages filled with poisonous gases,
 The wearing of oxygen breathing apparatus after disasters and in the fighting of mine fires, however, is haz- ardous. The records show 2S men have died wearing apparatus at tho time Of disaster. but this number is only about l,2 per cent of those wear ing such apparatus. By careful in- yestigation 1t was proved in each case that if the apparatus had been kept in proper order. or had the men been properly trained or been physically sound, or had they not attempted to do too much. there would have been no deaths and no occasion to blame the apparatus.

 The employees who were not af- fected by the explosion continued their work in the mine. They attrib- uted the disaster to seven ghosts whom they sought to propitiate by the sacrifice of seven goats.

NEW DEVICE CAN RECORD
 5000 DEGREES OF HEAT
Using Instrument That Can Measure Extreme Temperatures With
 out Contact.

Chicago, April 20, (By Associated Press). An instrument capable of measuring extreme temperatures without coming in direct contact with the source of heat is now being used in number of industrial plants to determine the amount of heat in the kilns oE furnaces where raw materials are being burned or melted, accord ing to officials of the Structural Ma ,terials Research Laboratory of the Lewis Institute here.
 The instrument is known as a ra- diation pyrometer. and consists of "a small telescope containing a piece of colored glass and two small wires, at tached to an indicator box. Standing back some distance from the kiln. or furnace. the operator sights the little telescope at the spot where the glow is hottest. The glass focuses the heat on the wires. which expand and register the degree of temperature on dial on the indicator box.
 In portland cement plants, where a temperature of from 2,500 to 5000 degrees Fahrenheit is needed in the kilns to burn the raw materials to q clinker, the common mercury ther- mometers are useless. because mer- cury reaches its boiling point at, SIS degrees. By using the pyrometer, a direct check is kept on the kiln tenn peratures. although some operators have an almost uncanny sense of de- termining this by sight.
 At one of the cement mills re- gently the pyrometer telescope was turned on the sun. The little needle in the indicator box immediately sprang over the maximum figure, bouncing against the sides of the box in its effort to register the heat on the suns surface, 93,000,000 miles away

EXPORTS SHOWING
 SATISFACTORY GAIN
Steady Rise in Amount Of Goods That France Ships to US.

Paris, April 20, (By Associated Press) .--The smoking of cigarettes is increasing in the United States, if one ton of cigarette paper from France to the United States The figures of 1922 are materially higher than those for 1921.
 A general estimate based on official reports shows that there is steady rise in the amount of merchandise that France is sending to the United States, condition which has encour- aged both the French government and French business interests. The exports last year were about 19,o0O,- 900 francs higher than in 1921. As Paris handles 60 per cent of an the French shipments to America, a good idea of the trade situation as 1t con- cerns France and the United States may Be had from examining the Paris commercial balance sheets
 Shipment Of Gold.
 An extraordinary feature has been the shipment of gold. In 1921 this amounted to about 275.000,000 gold dollars. Tn 1922 1t fell to under $b0,- 100000 but February of this year in- dicates a notable increase in the out flow of gold to America. The figures on gold export are easily obtainable, and people here are speculating as to what interests are responsible for the February increase. Some of 1t pre- sumably reaches France from the Scandinavian countries.
 American women have not lost their liking for the pretty things of France, for there has been an in- crease in the shipments of silk wear ing apparel, both embroidered and plain, and in handkerchiefs, laces and furs. Also America has increased her takings of works of art more than 100 years old, and precious stones and pearls, both imitation and real.
 Other Purchases.
 Other American purchases in France include leather, cotton cloth ing. artificial flowers, blocked or trimmed hats, musical instruments, silk, underwear and knitted goods A falling off in exportation of porce- lain and gloves from the Limoges dis trict is due to the difficulty of find- ing skilled workers. Increased prices of raw material and labor have pushed the finished product up so high as to interfere with foreign sales despite the value of the franc, which is favorable to exportation.
