HULL ASKS THOROUGH
CABINET CLEANSING
Says President Must Get Rid of
All Involved in Oil Lease
Scandals.

Chairman Hull of the democratic
national committee has issued the
following statement:
president Coolidge owes a debt
of gratitude to the democratic party
for having set in motion the ir-
resistible force of public opinion re-
sulting in the resignation of Secre-
tary Denby, the first act in a needed
house cleaning OF the republican na-
tional administration
ION the. face of the letters which
passed between President Coolidge
and Secretary DENLY it is apparent
that the President would have done
nothing of his own volition TO bring
about Secretary Denby's resignation
or to summarily remove him from his
cabinet. In his reply TO the Walsh
resolution demanding Denby's resig-
nation the President seems to have
taken and still maintains the atti-
tude OF the republican partisan press
that cabinet officers are responsible to
no one but the President, instead Of
the established view that each cabinet
officer is directly responsible to the
public, as well.
'On the face of the Presidents
lettA it is also apparent that he has
not yet discovered that Denby's. USE
fulness ended when the revelation
made
"By expressing his regret to part
with Secretary DENLY and giving him
a clean bill of health in the matter
of the naval oil leases. by praising
the sense of public duty" and his
fine sense of loyalty" the President
seems to put the seal of his approval
on Secretary Denby's defiant state
ment that he would do the same thing
over again.
'"rhe same force of public opinion
created by the oil investigation so
efficiently and successfully conducted
by Senator Walsh of Montana and
his democratic associates on the com
mittee should continue to make itself
felt until Assistant Secretary of the
Navy Theodore Roosevelt and At
torney General Daugherty can no
longer resist the pressure upon them
to resign, for there is no hope full in
dication that President Coolidge will
remove them in view of the fact that
he kept Secretary DENLY in his
cabinet for so long a time after his
usefulness was destroyed
Every one connected with these
oil leases who lent himself or gave
approval to this looting of public
domain. weakening, if not breaking
down the nations naval resources of
defense, no matter how subordinate
in place or position. should be forced
out of the public service. 1t seems
that this will have to be accomplish
ed by public opinion, which even a
President cannot long successfully
resist"

STONE SEEKS RELIEF
OF FEDERAL COURTS
Congestion of Dockets, Delaying
Disposition of Cases, Being
Studied for Remedies.

Means of relieving congestion,
which for several years has delayed
action in the federal courts, are being
considered by Attorney General
Stone, who may, if a further survey
warrants, recommend establishment
of another branch of the federal
bench to take care of federal police
prosecution.
The Attorney General has been
gathering data for several months on
conditions in the federal courts to
determine whether the present fed
eral district courts can increase their
capacity. He is inclined to favor a
further trial of the plan to transfer
federal district judges to clean up
congested dockets, but the informa-
ton on this phase Of the problem
has been none too encouraging.
Establishment Of an inferior court
to deal only with cases arising under
the broadened police powers also is
favored by the Attorney General, but
he wishes first to see If the present
jam can be eliminated in some other
way. Mr.. Stone cited yesterday the
great number of police, cases involv-
ing prohibition, smuggling, thievery
in interstate commerce and narcotics,
as indicating what he described as
the tremendous job which district
courts now have to handle and he
added that this SORT of case showed
no immediate prospect of decreasing.
There will be no decision on the
question of court reform by the de-
partment until a survey of the dock
cts in the federal district courts, now
under way, has been completed.

Semmes has been the recipient of
many messages of sympathy from
prominent business acquaintance
and friends of Mr.. SemmeS through
out the District.
Mr. Semmes, who was president of
the Semmes Motor Company, was one
of the most widely known automo-
bile dealers and business men OF
Washington. He was born in Alex
andria, Va, March rs, 1871. He was
the son Of C. G. Semmes and Mrs. s.
c. Bryan Semmes.
He received his early education in
schools in southern Maryland and
later attended schools in the District
of Columbia. He began his business
career in Cleveland, Ohio, and be-
came an executive for a firm there.
He returned to Washingtonin 1900
and organized the Semmes-Keliy
Wholesale Grocery Co. and about Is
years ago started in the automobile
business.
Mr.. Semmes has the distinction OF
having been a member of the first
board Of directors of the Washing

a member of. the board of directors
Of the City Club and a former vice

Lao Behind Arc and Spark Spectra
Verified by u. S.; Easily Understood

table the position an element occu-
pies is dependent on the number of
planetary electrons it normally pos
sesses.
1.-The atom, according to modern
theory, consists of a central nucleus
of positive electric charges, which in
the normal gaseous state is surround
ed by electrons, or negative charges,
equal in number to the positive
charges, and revolving about the
nucleus like planets about tho sun.
These electrons have definite orbits
which are characteristic Of tho ele-
ment.
Some Spectra Conpllcated.
"a free electron flying through
space and striking the atom may
knock an electron out Of its orbit.
Energy is absorbed by the atom in
the process. The positive electricity
in the nucleus then draws in another
electron to the orbit, restoring the
atom to its normal condition. The
energy previously absorbed is re-
leased, and is given out in the form
of light.
THE color, or wave length, of this
light depends on the orbit into
which the electron is drawn, and the
position from which it fell. Hence
light given out in a spark or arc can
be resolved by the spectroscope into
a series of distinct spectral lines,
each of a definite wave length, and
the number and arrangement of these
lines is characteristic of the element.
Some of these spectra are extremely
complicated, those of the heavier ele-
ments containing several thousand
linesn

The announcement below was made
today by the Department of Com
merce. It's Importance is evident. AS
it is easily understood by any fourth
grade school child, no attempt is
made here to interpret it. The an
nouncement follows,
"A further proof of present theories
of the structure of atoms has been
announced by the Bureau of Stand
ards, Department of Commerce, in the
verification of the displacement law
governing the arc and spark spectra
Of the elements. According to this
law the spark spectrum Of an ele-
ment should resemble the arc spec
trum Of an element having one fewer
planetary electrons. Thus the spark
trons should resemble the arc spec
trum of manganese which. has rs
electrons.
Electrons Treated Roukh.
Scientists explain that this is be-
cause the free electrons in the dis
ruptive electric spark are going so
fast that when they hit anatom they
knock out two electrons. In the
vapors of the somewhat cooler arc
they knock out only one.
This law was announced by Kos
sci and Sommerfeld in 1919, and
measurements necessary to prove or
disprove it have been in progress at
the Bureau of Standards for the past
year. 1t was necessary to plot the
arc and spark spectra of a number
of elements, and to compare those of
elements that are next-door neigh
bors in the periodic table. In this
