ELECTRICITY WILL /
WIN FUTURE WARS
Armored Diving and Flying Planes
Wireless to Be Big Factor
in Destroying Armies.

London.-Prof. A. NJ Low, scientist
and inventor, whose work during the
World war was highly valued by the
British war inventions board, contrib
utes remarkable article to the Fort
nightly Review on the sort Of warfare
that may be expected hundred years
hence Among the things he expects
to play a part in future warfare are
Jets of water, charged with cleo
tricity, to kill horses and men.
Wireless telephony, sight, heat, pow
er and writing.
Wireless control of tanks and air
planes.
Battle plane engines developing wire
less power to destroy aircraft within
hundreds of yards.
Wireless heat to destroy European
regions.
Giant transport airplanes with in
credible speed.
Secret war plans ferreted out by
wireless telephone and sight, the flu
ture war eyes and ears. Propaganda
striking terror into every home by
means Of wireless receivers which will
be more common than any telephone
today.
Armored Diving and Flying Boats.
Armored boats, capable of diving
under water and of flying in the air.
a kind of combined tank-submarine-
airplane.
Ah'planes with electric impulse, their
guns firing an enormous number of bull
lets a second.
Visible bullets.
Electrically controlled rockets, oper-
ated on wires for wrecking planes.
wireless controlled torpedo with
wireless sighted periscope, controlled
by secret combination of wave
lengths
Gyroscopic, wireless airplanes over
which operator, who may be in flight,
has absolute control and can release
bombs at will.
Mental telepathy will form a useful
methed of communication.
In Tan interview with a correspondent |
Professor Low amplified his vision.
"You Will probably remember the
experiments made some time ago in
which smoke columns and water jets |
were used as wireless Materials" he
said. II have experimental with !
higiIiy-charged jets of slightly acidu-
lated water and I have given people
very powerful shocks at a distance of !,
few feet. The effect is really ex-
1t Is easy to see that, on
a much larger scale, my model could
become a most powerful weapon. 1t
will make cavalry obsolete. Protec-
tive measures will follow.
Noises Weaken Morale of People.
"Nikola Tesla has conducted exper- 4
lments In the Induction of electric
over large areas. With quite
simple apparatus and using only three
horse power, 1 can destroy thin iron
wire placed at q distance OF three or
four feet. The limiting factor at pres
snt is that the wire must be in circular
form and thus make a closed cir
cult Noise may play an important
part in future warfare. 1t has q very
curious effect on human beings.
''The more highly civilized they be-
,ome the more noise affects them
Lots of people in the last war were
'ent into a serious condition by the
effect of noise I can
imagine the aggressive use Of selected
loises to undermine the morale of
population and the development OF all
orts Of anti-noise devices"

Oysters Threatened.

Richmond, Va.-The largest seed
oyster supply in the world in the
james river, Virginia, is threatened
with destruction because of the effects
of pollution of the water. Last De
cemher and on April 10, of 1923, wild
ducks were picked up helpless on the
New Jersey coast at Cape May The
oii-coated waters gunmed the feath-
ers of the birds and prevented. them
from flying. Inland waters are also
polluted by factory waste. causing the
death Of thousands Of fish.

HELPED TO WORLD POSITION

One of the most significant indexes
to the changes that the World war
brought is seen in the Kiel canal case
under consideration by the world court
at The Hague. Under clauses of the
treaty of Versailles the action was
brought to keep the waterway open
to all ships of nations with which
Germany issat peace even when they
carry war materials.
A bulletin just issued from the
Washington headquarters of the Ma
tional Geographic society deals with
this canal which in effect more than
doubled the strength of the German
navy, and which prewar Germany man.
aged as she chose.
Canal Helped to World Position.
ut was really by removing the mud
and stones from the bed of the Kfel
canal-or the Kaiser Wilhelm kanal,
to give it it's rightful name-that the
German empire dug its way into its
cherished welt politik and appeared
as a great world power" says the bull
letin. Prussia had the vision of this
most important waterway before tire
late empire or anything that could be
considered, modern German political
entity existed. Prussia did not own
square foot of territory on the North
sea. The Baltic was her only outlet.
She had no navy; and Denmark stood
across her path. real naval power.
On the North sea were the Grand
Duchy of Oldenburg, the Kingdom OF
Hanover and some smaller principali-
ties
1.-THE first step toward the future
canal was taken in 1852 when Prussia
purchased from OIdenburg an area of
marshland on the North sea near the
mouth of the Weser. On this low,
muddy site soon rose the made-to-or-
der city Of Wilhelmshaven which was
to become the second greatest German
war-harbor and the greatest German
naval base on the North sea. The
jealousies of the empire days are
well shown by the refusal of Hanover
to permit the building of a railway to
the site, which necessitated the slow
transportation of all materials by
water around Denmark.
1.-THE land through which to con-
struct the canal and its Baltic base, |
Kiel, came to Prussia in 1864 by con-
quest, as a result of the Prussian-Dan- |
fsh. war. Two years later, Hanover, |
which had refused cooperation, was
defeated by arms and incorporates /

ELECT STATE JUDGES
 BY POPULAR VOTE

Newark, N. J., Oct. Io.-'Sure1y the citizens of sovereign state, other wise deemed capable of choosing their governor and law makers, are entitled to a direct vote in the se- lection of officers to pass upon it's laws, declares the Newark Union Labor Messenger in supporting the demand of the New Jersey State Fed eration of Labor's proposal for the di- rect nomination and recall of the state judiciary, which is labor's method to cure the unconstitutional assumption by anti-labor judges of power to is- sue injunctions restraining workers from exercising their constitutional rights during strikes and similar labor controversies.
 Any contrary contention denies the right of free people to rule themselves" continues the Messen- ger, "and when coupled with a de- fense of jurist's usurpation of pow CTS vested in another branch of the government becomes a menace to that government and to the people them selves.
 What halo is there about a per sonally appointed judge which per mlts him to usurp the powers of an elected branch of the government and outlaw at will the guaranteed rights of vast body of our citizens?

$2,778,541 Trade Union
 Benefits Distributed

American Federation of Labor trade unions regard protecting their members and their members families by means of sick and death benefits as one of their outstanding duties.
 According to figures submitted by Secretary Frank Morrison to the 1923 convention of the Federation, the aff11i- ated national and international unions paid out during the year $2,773,541 for benefits. Of this amount $1 ,o44,o ,o30 went for death benefits to members wives, $648,68O for sick benefits, $1o,818 for travelling benefits, and $319 for tool in surance.
 These amounts represent largely the benefits paid directly by the national and internationals and do not include much greater sums provided by many local unions for similar purposes.

 "The trade union movement. has always been firm in it's support of ordered, orderly, democratic govern 'ment. It has been pioneer in the establishment of great and fundamen- tai measures of freedom and 1t can not now condone any movement for their undoing.
 We have the highest regard for legitimate fraternal organizations and we pay the highest tribute to them for their good works. But the Ku Kiux K1an seeks to overthrow laws and to destroy constitutional guaran- tees which we prize above everything because they constitute the breath of life itself to free men and women.
 We condemn this secret consplr- acy, this hideous and sinister move ment that proudly calls itself the in visible empire cloaking itself ln masks and fnummery while it eats at the heart of our institutions.
 '.We call upon Americans in gem eral and trade unionists in particular to beware of this menace and to con duct themselves in the open, under the law, and for the preservation oi democratic government and demo cratic institutions. We call upon them to preserve religious freedom and the rights of all men of all races under the law.

Income Jumps From
 $69O, to $687, ,88O

Financial strength is an essential ba- sis of organized labor's standing as the protector of the workers and the pro moter of their interests.
 The increasing financial ability of the American Federation of Labor is shown by a glance at its budget for the last 40 years.
 In 1853 the Federation's total receipts amounted to but 5000 In 1893 the fed eration struggled along with the modest amount of $2O,802 In 1903 the receipts walked up to $247,0O0. And for the l6 months prior to the 1925 convention the receipts reached $687, 7,880
