Cox and Coolidge
Win at Primaries

Columbus = Both President Cool
idge and former Governor James M.
Cox of Ohio, the Democratic candi-
date for president in 1920, won sweep
ing victories in Ohio's primary cleo
tions Tuesday. The vote, however
was probably the lightest ever cast in
an Ohio primary election, it being of
ficially estimated at about 18 pei
cent Of the potential vote.
President Coolidge not only won the
states 81 delegates to the national
convention, but was given better than
States Senator Hiram Johnson of Cal
ifornia for presidential preference.
Mr. Cox probably will go before the
Democratic national convention with
his home states 48 votes pledged to
support him and backed up by a popu-
lar endorsement of his party by two
and a half to one vote over William
Gibbs McAdoo. His probable 48 votes
will be represented by 81 delegates
the eight delegates-at-large each hav-
ing half vote.
Former Attorney General Harry
M. Daugherty was elected a member
of the Coolidge slate of delegates at
large, but was probably low member
of the Coolidge slate of seven candi-
dates.
President Coolidge carried every
county in the state by majorities
ranging from little more than three
to one in Cuyahoga county to as high
as twenty to one in some of the small
er rural counties. Mr.. Cox apparent
ly has not been so fortunate as he
probably will be forced to yield few
of the smaller counties to Mr.. Nc
Adoo. Incomplete returns indicate
that McAdoo probably has carried
Lawrence, Portage, Vinton and Harri
son counties with a fighting chance
in few other small counties. In nc
instances, however, is it apparent
that Mr.. McAdoo carried any of the
congressional districts in the prefer
entail voting or obtained any of the
district delegates.

FURNISHES CARACUL FUR

Caracul fur, now so much in de-
mand for garments and trimming, is
really lamb skin. Lamb skin is OBJ
tanned from many different species of
the lamb, which comes from all over
the world. The kind used for fine
furs are mostly from Russia and Mon
golia.
Carcacul is the skin of the Astrak-
han lamb, taken very young, before it
has turned curly. The Astrakhan
lamb is curly species from the prov
inve of Astrakhan in Russia. A less
expensive quality comes from Mon
golia. 1t is a short fur, like crushed
velvet, and is usually dyed black
platinum or a sand shade.
Caracul is not a very durable fur
but owing to it's scarcity, beautiful
markings and soft, flexible leather is
much in demand.

WHAT is A KILOWATT HOUR?

Users of electricity-an that in
sludes just about all of us--find it
difficult to understand the term,
"kilowatt hour"
"Kilowatt hour" is a term used to
indicate the electrical unit of work
and is a thousand watt hours.
A watt represents the rate of work
done by one ampere under the press
ure of one volt, the Ohio Committee
on Public Utility Information ex-
plains. A volt is the unit of electro
motive force. An ampere represents
the quantity of electricity which will
flow through certain resistance when
one volt Of pressure is applied.
Voltage is equivalent to pressure.
Amperage is equivalent to volume.
The product of the two indicates
quantity, called the wattage. Line
voltage for lighting purposes is usu-
ally 40 volts. An ordinary electric
lamp requires about five-elevenths of
an ampere for proper operation. Null
tiplying 10 by 5-11 gives the guam
tity of electricity necessary to heat
the filament of the lamp to incandes-
cence. In this case so watts would be
necessary, and if the flow continued
one hour, the meter would register So
watt hours of current. Burn the lamp
for 20 hours and the electricity con-
sumed amounts to 1000 watt hours,
or one kilowatt hour, kilo meaning
one thousand.

MUST RECOGNIZE UNION

Recognition of the Brotherhood of
Railway Clerks as the duly authorized
representative of clerks, freight hand
lers, express and station employees on
the Oregon Washington Railroad &
Navigation Co. was ordered by the
rail labor board in a decision April
16. The decision blocks the attempt
Of this subsidiary of the Union Pacific
to squirm out of the results of an cleo
ton which gave clear though small
majority in favor of the national
union. The excuse of the railroad in
its attempt to hold the election void
was that all 1920 ballots must be
counted and that therefore 644 vot-
ing for representation by the brother
hood did not constitute a majority.
This bluff did not appeal to the
board

WHEN INCH EQUALS 100 MILES

When does one inch equal 100
miles?
Telephone engineers say the answer
is easy. They say that when a tele-
phone subscriber turns his or her head
away from the mouthpiece of the
phhone while talking over long dis
tance they add, for each inch they
move, over 100 miles to the length of
the telephone line which transmits
their voice.
Recent tests show that when the
speakers mouth is several inches re-
moved from the transmitter, it is
equivalent to actually adding several
hundred miles to the distance be-
tween the two persons conversing.
Experiments by telephone experts
prove that the most satisfactory re-
suits are obtained when subscribers
speak directly into the mouthpiece.
Loud, high-pitched tones are not
transmitted as we'll as those of lower
pitch, recent tests have proved.
