resentative, analysed in his report the
Hungarian situation in the light of
the struggle our party went thru re-
Gently. 1.-THE convention of the party,
held IA months ago, found us in a
situation similar to that of the Hun
garian fraction. With the help of the c.
e l. the danger was averted, the correct
line found and the party is more uni
fed now than ever before. 1t is not
an easy task to eliminate the faction
alism of the 6 years existence Of our
party" said Weinstone, "but we are
on the right road. Altho We have a
few sore spots within the party, we
have reached the point when we can
say: Unity within, achievements out
side"
Reaching Masses.
1.-THE party is reaching to the masses
now. The thousands of our party mem
bers are faced with the task of win
ming the leadership of the millions of
workers. Passaic, the needle trades,
the miners campaign and the savage
attack of the bosses and right wing la

against the most powerful capitalist
class in the world and against the
worst labor bureaucrats. Unity is
needed everywhere. The Hungarian

Weinstone then went to the analysis
OF the factionalism within the Hun

did not come to a close.
After discussing every phase Of the
factional struggle, Weinstone called
upon those comrades within the

loyal to the party, to admit their mis-

RAYS ARE OBJECTS OF WORLDWIDE
 STUDY AMONG LEADING SCIENTISTS
Professor Miikan's Studies Take Him Away Down to
 South America to Secluded Lake in Andes

Washington, D. C.. Dec. 17-Geo- graphy plays it's part in tho advance of pure science. according to bull letin from the Washington. D. C., headquarters of e National Geo. graphic Society.
 "A quest for an ideal spot in which to study the suns heat rays led Dr. c. G. Abbot, leader of Ma tional Geographic Society Expedition cooperating with the Smithsonian Institution, over extensive areas in the Eastern hemisphere few months ago before he selected what appears to be the best possible location, on a dry mountain top in Southwest Africa.
 Interested in Rays
 Recently, when 1t was desired to study a more elusive type of radio :, ton, the Cosmic or Millikan ray, l Professor Millikan found it neces-' sary to travel to a crystal lake In i,the high Bolivian Andes; and Pro- lessor Nicholson in studying the speed of light carried on experi- aments near Mt Wilson, California. 1 Tt is noteworthy that in all of these expeditions the object was to study radiant energy; but, for that { matter, rays of various kinds and their effects have almost monopo- flzed the attention of physicists dur { ing the last few years; and it is in this field that the most striking dis- coveries and advances have been made by science.
 What Are Rays?
 What are rays that lead serious scientists to remote parts of the earth and absorb the attention of scores of others in laboratories throughout the civilized world? "A little more than generation ago 1t not only would have been diff cult to give a broad definition of rays, but 1t would have been almost impossible to bring to the mind of layman any conception of the vari- ous kinds and the things they do. Light an heat stituted practice ally the only rays known at that time even to scientists.
 Today the situation Is far differ lent. In thirty-five years rays previ- ously unknown have become the hand -maidens of civilization. They speed commerce and intercourse. They are the beneficent helpers of physicians, surgeons, and dentists. They are the invaluable agents of scientists in probing for new truths. They are even the playfellows of children. .sr 1 We Use Rays Daily
 Si "We seek technical facts about rays today, because we know so many things about their ordinary behavior Any evening we can sit in our homes and be amused or in- structed by one kind of ray-radio or Hertzian waves-as they bring voices or music to us over distances of hundreds or even thousands of miles. We know that these rays or waves reach us in fraction of Second, however, far away their point of origin; and we know that They scorn aour walls of brick and stone and steel, coming to an an- Jenna inside our rooms as unerring- 3y as to an aerial outside.
 @ Many of us have had N-ray pho- tographs taken of teeth or some other part of our bodies, and know that these rays can plunge through

flesh and bone. wood or cloth, leav- ing on photographic plates records of things that eyes could never sec. All of us are familiar, of course, with the streams of light rays that flood our rooms when we turn a switch, and with the h .at rays that flow from our fireplaces and radi- ators. Lately science has introduced us-or reintrod ed us to less usual rays that may be our familiar ser wants tomorrow gamma-rays of radium. the Cosmic or Millikan rays, the so-called cathode or beta-rays of the Coolidge tube, and the so-called alpha-rays of ,dium.
 Rays may be described broadly though not very satisfactorily as carriers of energy in straight lines from given source through empty space. They may radiate from their source in all directions like pins stuck into ball, or by artificial means they may be gathered into beams like those of light thrown out by an automobile headlight or like. beams of heat thrown out by a bowl-s} lped electric household heater.
 Two Groups of Rays
 "The' ray family is large one with numerous and diverse members There are two groups: the true rays, and those with not quite so valid claim to the family name. What might be ca"ed the true rays are often spoken of as waves for the most ge. erally accepted theory of their nature is the wave theory. They are supposed to be waves in the ether. the 'substance' that we assume fills empty space between the planet and the stars-the same
 substance' that fills a vacuum tube when all the air and other gases have been pumped out. These waves are thought to be like the widening waves made by pebble dropped in- to water, first a crest then a hol' low, then anot- crest, and so on. They are measured from crest to crest. Tn. crest is supposed to be light, the hollow, darkness; bu they move so rapidly that the light seems continuous.
 "This narrower definition which emphasizes the supposed wave form fails to include what are often loosely spoken of as rays: the ca thode rays of the Coolidge tube and the alpha and Leta rays of radium,
 Consider ;,st the true rays or supposed nther waves. They are blood relations because they move with the same velocity, the speed of light. approximately 1S6.0o0 miles each second. The other rays have varying speeds. The true rays, how ever, although they travel with the same speed, differ in their wave lengths and therefore in the ire. quence of their vibrations. In this they are like the waves of sound which travel through the air. AL though sound waves travel at the same speed they may range from slowly vibrating low sounds to rapid ly vibrating high sounds. Because of this analogy the great gamut tha rays run may be considered to be like the keyboard of a gigantic pi- ano on which they are grouped in octaves.
 The Rays By Which We See
 Near the middle of this imagin- ary keyboard is the octave we know
