CHEMICAL SOCIETY
OPENS CONVENTION
5000 Delegates Present at Initial
Session of Sixty-Seventh
Conference.

Peace between the sciences of
chemistry and physics over the
makeup of the atom has virtually
been established after years of SEEM
ingly irreconcilable disagreement, ii
was brought out today at the opening
session of the sixty seventh meeting
of the American Chemical Society, at
the Hotel Willard.
This meeting of the society, which
will continue through Saturday,
promises to be the most important in
its long history. After preparing for
what was expected to be a banner
attendance of 1000 delegates, the
registration committee was swamped
with 1900 delegates at noon today,
with still more arriving.
Marks END of Conflict.
Increased study. the society was
told, has virtually ended conflict be-
tween chemists and physicists The
view rapidly coming to be held by
both sides, it was stated, is that
each atom is a solar system in which
the electrons revolve in pairs. just
as if there were another earth on
the opposite side of the sun from
our own earth. moving with the same
speed and in the same direction
The speakers this morning were
Robert A. Millikan. professor of
physics at the California Institute of
Technology, and DIR. Gilbert \. Lewis.
professor of chemistry at the Uni
vcrsity of California. Each discussed
the atom from the point of view of
his own science, and the points of
difference We're more or less unim-
portant

six or eight years ago" said Prof.
Lewis, the views of physicists and
chemists concerning the structure Of
the atom seemed entirely irreconcil-
able. The chemist thought in terms
of a static atom, with electrons ar
ranged in concentric cubes around
the atomic center. The physicist
thought of Il planetary system: cleo
irons revolving with great speed IN
orbits about the center, several cleo
irons being assigned to each orbit.
These differences have largely
been resolved by the chemists accept
ing the general orbital theory, while
the physicist has changed his model
to give each electron is own orbit and
10 ascribe to each orbit a fixity such
as is required for the explanation of
the facts of chemistry
The society announced today that
the nation wide prize essay contest
instituted by Francis 7. Garvan of
New York, former alien property Gus

Nearly $4,000 school students in every
state participated in the contest just

winners in each state will be an

time the six national winners OF

MRS. BABE sAYss

RfTNoRTY-SIX thousands dollarsi
 Isn't that dreadful? That dumb-
 bell isn't worth $46,000 of any body's affection. The affection I had for him wouldn't be worth anywhere near forty-six cents!
 "Well, suppose I oughtn't to be sur prised. Especially after all I've been through. It was terrible; just one ordeal after another. To make you understand it thoroughly, suppose I'd better go back to the beginning of my marriage and tell the whole story in detail.
 Charlie Babb married me in 1918. He had chemical job, but 1t wasn't much use to us as a young domestic couple, be- cause he kept losing it. Why, the very first year of our marriage he lost fifteen jobs. We kept moving from one set of furnished rooms to another, switching from Brooklyn to Baltimore, and back again.
 Cess than twelve months after our wedding he came to me and made sug- gestion. He thought, he said, that since we hadn't much money, ought to look around and get something to do.'
 "We really were pretty short financially at the time. Being woman, liked nice clothes and dainty hats, and, for a man, his tastes were just as extravagant as mine. One of us had to skimp to make both ends meet. And it was usually [ who did the skimping.
 ''I got position as an art model, and was pretty much in demand. Some of
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-04-20

the artists for whom I posed
 said had awfully good eyes and hair. The studios where I worked were high-class places, and naturally. I met a lot of pleasant and interesting men and women there. In the meantime, Babb went right on with his chemical ex- periments at home. I'll tell you all about them later.
 "Charlie Babb knew perfectly well I was being introduced to people at the studios, but he never raised the slightest Objection-tthen. In fsct, he encouraged me to go about.
 ''The next thing knew he was insin- uating that some day, some place, might run into some rich old guy who would really appreciate my beauty. Whenever Rabb kissed me, he would observe that some rich daddy would be willing and glad to pay $1 1000 apiece for those kisses from 'pippin' like me.
 It was some time later that was in. troduced to MT. Black. He was very nicc and polite. He was planning long motor trip and he asked me if I'd care to go along. I said that I'd ask my husband whether he had any objection. Babb Aaid he hadn't. So went on the trip. Mir. Blacks mother and sister went, too.
 "That my husband didn't care enough about me to forbid my going traveling around the country in an automobile. was a shock to me. My. illusions about his love were getting feebler and feebler; When we got back from the trip, packed up my clothes and went home to mother, in Flatbush. I've been there ever since.
 Tt wasn't only that my husband seemed to have lost interest in me that made me leave him. He annoyed me in two other ways. For one thing, he had money complex. The only times he ever objected to the people went with were when they weren't rich.
 And then he was all taken up with and weeks trying to find some way to synthetically age liquor. He would ~ try and try to discover process to make 'six-year-old whiskeY in six A minutes.
