Autobiography in
New Shielded Panels

A new shielded panel Is now avail
able, for which the makers claim ex-
cellent autobiography qualitieR
The shield consists of pure perforated
tin and is attached to the panel by
a patented process. The adhesion OF
the tin Is perfect. Sections Of IT may
be cut out with an ordinary penknife.
The new panel has q hard rubber
base with a low sulphur content and
is artificIally aged to minimize discolor-
alton. Particular care is taken TO pro-
portion the filters and process Of vul-
canizing so as TO obtain high dielec-
trio strength and surface resistance
and a low phase angle difference and
dielectric constant. Its machining
qualities are excellent.
Besides the standard black finish the
panels are furnished in all sizes with
or without the shielding. In oak. ma
hogany. walnut and birdseye maple.
These finishes are applied TO the sur.
face of the panel by special process.
which is accomplished so as to make
II difficult TO tell the panels from the
real woods which they represent.

PARIS, December 17.-Paul Dou-
mer the new minister of finance, has
been duly installed in office and begun
his work to aid France in making its
way out OF the financial slough.
His first care will be to accelerate
the voting Of the budget by Parlia-
ment. He will leave other financial
problems to be dealt with later in their
proper order.
The original plans Of NJ. Doumer, It
is understood, will be modified in the
light Of various votes in the chamber
since he first prepared them three
weeks ago. He is convinced that moth
ing can be gained by precipitate ac-
ton. Therefore he will give the cabi-
net, at n meeting on Saturday, a gen
eral outline of his financial program
and will submit the bills based upon Il

They are alleged TO have perfected

That this was not the first attempt

On the anniversary of the assassi-

was killed June "a. 1929. the paper
says, several persons hid in the gar
den of the foreign ministry and fired
a number of shots at DR.. Stresemann,
but without effect. Police who
searched the garden and neighborhood
were unable to find the criminals.
Another plot was revealed a few
days before the departure of the Ger

OF the Munich and Berlin police pre-
vented the attempt
